    bat, thanks for coming by.

    cowcorn, wish you luck with the representants from the Concordia student union. Btw, in Gloryville we will talk about Allan Saporro, or is it Sapporo, can't remember right now.....lol

    Leech10, the tower is the Techneticum Tower, you can probably do a search by yourself, too slow of a connection for me. I think it is from the STEX.

    jacqulina, thanks for the nice words Jackie, I know that you like waterfalls. Want to move into the Huntingcabin?....lol

    Btw, you reminded me that I didn't show the falls from Grand Falls in all their splender in the last update, so here they are again, in whole:

    and with the cross on top of the hill overlooking the whole valley of Ganoga.......

    superchad, yes the park still exists, it is now 150 years old and still in one piece, maybe a little smaller, just a tiny bit.......Here is the Main-entrance of it:

    RushHourFreak. thanks and keep on dropping in.

    hamsterTK, I'm glad you like my cities, enjoy them. You got some darn good CJ yourself ,you know?.....lol.... I went to see it last night........all recommended.

    While working on the next updates of Gloryville (maybe 4 or 5 of them) I will once in awhile keep you busy with some nice teasers. Have a nice weekend now. Until later........

    Wow....page 106

    lol

    Yes jacquelina, it took some time to do all the fitting and still, it didn't come out the way I wanted it to be since the falls are quite high and also almost inside the mountain. I wanted that *old* effect of the falls as if they have been eating away the cliff for several milleniums.

    I wish though that Maxis would have added some real falls, that would have been the top of the cake.

    I tried other means of faking the falls like the ploppable water and falls, but that didn't work out because the terrain was too steep and I wanted to keep that steep effect.

    Btw, it took me a lot of fitting and time also to fit in the bridge on the bottom of these falls.......lol

    hi there my friend,i know exactly what you mean because i have done similar,and i have been after the same effect but maybe sorchins new flora mods can give us some of that effect,i dont know but i intend to try when they are released.i also wish maxis had made real falls i reckon they would have been fantastic.i know what you mean about the bridge too that can be a pain in the bu.t to get perfect but you have achieved everything so well so far.

    the airport entrance is amazing btw i love the model of the plane or should i call it something else.anyway amazing work allround

    Nice work, hey I was wondering, with your pictures of the waterfalls last page, how did you get peg's waterfalls to blend so well into regular water?

    hah, another picture of those things that you never made an update of... you never made an update about the airport... there are still things left unshown and unexplained here in Nexis of Genesis. Of course I might be wrong, oh, and the Nexis City airport, I hope that you would also feature that in the last update of Nexis City. Nice teaser btw, The plane is already about 50-60 years mounted in there. wait, why is the runway accessible to the general public? hahaha, just something that you don't see everyday...

    Take Care,

    Charles

    Impressive! If that is just the airport entrance, I can't imagine the airport itself! 3.gif

    You know what mrbison,

           This really sucks.   I thought I had looked at all the great CJs already.   Now I stumble in here and find 106 pages of unbelievable CJ.     Not just fantastic pics but also incredible story lines as well.      It just isn't fair.   8.gif   Now I am gonna have to spend all that time going back to the beginning and looking at every page.

            LOL

          Well, I already went back a couple of pages and what I saw astounded me.   I just wonder how I hadn't seen this journal until now.    42.gif

           I guess I got  a lot of work ahead of me if I am gonna look at it all.

    jacqulina, I know that you understand the difficulties of making beautiful waterfalls because you have metioned it before in your CJ.

    GrayWolf115, there's a lot with Peg's waterfall set I believe that blends in with the real water, but make sure that you have the right water in your game also, because if you use the original water of the game then you will see easily the difference. I use Dark blueish-greenish watermod by (?) jorg.

    Charles Rodulfo, Yes, I never made an update of the White Sands International Airport. Don't worry, there will be one with all the changes that happened during the last 50 years or so. Also I know about that darn lot with the airport track entrance......Hm, that was the only freakin' lot that fitted in that space without disorganizing the whole surroundings. You know what I mean, sometimes we don't really have a choice. Good observation, it proofs that you take a closer look at my pics.....lol. ( But then again: This is the planet of Genesis and don't forget that, everything's possible there....lol)

    Micah, if you like looking at airports, you will like mine. I spent almost 1 hour just on modifying the darn island......lol

    Menotyou, with your avatar, how couldn't you not like the jet?....lol

    Thanks for being there Leech10.

    Gaston, welcome to NoG, (Nexis of Genesis) Enjoy your stay and I hope that you will find the time to read most of the story, because that is what you need to know if you want to understand the updates. Everything is locked into one story from the beginning and I always come back in time to make you remind certains happpenings in the past that have caused the events of today.

    Ok, here's another Teaser of Gloryville. Remember the Slayer Company? They'r still in business and these are the HQ towers. They didn't change, but the surroundings did.

    Have a nice week

    Okay I have only gotten to read through page 20 so far.    46.gif   Wow that is alot of information to digest.   I think this will take me a while.  LOL    It looks like it will be worth it though.      I will forge on ahead...   Or is it forge on behind....    Oh heck,  I don't know.   Anyway, I keep on reading.

    I hoped that I would have found the time to bring you at least one update of Gloryville before I leave for my annual Moosehunt, but time did not allow me to. So, I will have yo do it after the hunt. I will be gone for at least 10 days to New Foundland hunting Moose and caribou.

    I will be able to comment during this time because I will bring along my laptop and hopefully find some internet connections up there, at least that is what they said at the Huntinglodge in NF.

    The update will be uploaded as soon as I get it finished when I get back home, I guess that'll be sometime in two weeks.

    Enjoy yourself and visit some other CJ's meanwhile and leave a comment there.

    This is smack right in the middle of downtown Gloryville:
