Here is what I've been working on now that I finally have a computer that can run this amazing game.

Welcome to St. Thomas (Yes I know I made a typo in creathing the city name )! Enjoy!

Excellent Start

[Mexicanboy13r 12]

Very, Very nice start so far. I think I know which region you are using.

Great start so far.

Traffic_Jam:

Thanks, glad you like.

Mexicanboy13r: Lol, bet your wrong. Na, you guessed it. 

 

Shockingly these cities camearound from me messing around on my little brothers new computer. But St. Thomas took of really quickly. City makes around 12k or so a month. With all the money saved in the bank (all 12 million), I am going to slowly revitilize downtown and add on to the exsisting STMT system (St. Thomas Mass Transit). Also have some other plans as well. Anyway, on to the pics!

 

Hope to add a secnic drive in this area to help boost the look of this bare coast line.

This particular avenue needs some help, as traffic is horrible. But thats due to the fact its a major through fare into downtown.

And here is part of the city's heart and soul.

Yes, I have no life and will be back with no updates. Lol, just kidding. I just haven't been able to sleep as of late. So I may or not be back with another update tonight.

 

Anything anyone wants to see in particular? Will take requests. I'm out, thanks for viewing!

You can actually fix that typo with a cheat if you want.

Hit Ctrl+Shift+Alt+C and type in the following:

======================

Anyhow, you seem to have mastered your road layout (well balanced grids and angled roads.

Your city has a LOT of potential - keep it up!

Nice job

 

Where are the blacktop highways from? 

[ganja728 0]

Looks like you're having a great time building. Having the right computer makes all the difference with this game. I found this out the hard way of course.

[trixin 2]

I think BATs would do the trick to make it more lively. Everything looks good except for the industrial area which looks dirty

[Red Hawk 0]

cool city!
whats the population?

EDIT: saintsteve the blacktop highways can be found here:

Afternoon everyone. How are you all doing?

jacqulina, saintsteve, and ganja728: Thanks for the comments and glad you like St. Thomas!

 

GingerBlokey and newy2: Welcome to St. Thomas! Surprisingly I have gotten to the Stex to download various buildings. Mostly buildings from Paris and London. In closer pictures you'll see them. But I am getting to the Stex as much as I can to download more! Thanks to all the BATer's out there!

 

Red Hawk: Thanks for answering that question. As for the regional population it currently stands at about 180,000. Plus with the plans I have that may change very quickly. But I am still on the fence on whether or not I should zone up or out first. I'm leaning towards out. But who knows...

 

Trixin: But just about every city has had dirty industry at its roots. Sadly I feel that it is that sirty industry that is literally killing my environment.

 

cammo2003: Thanks for the tip. Will get to it asap. And welcome to St. Thomas. Oh I know the potential is there. I've been viewing everyones great Cj's from a far so the ideas running in my head are endless!

 

Any who, time for the update. Thought I'd sow everyone pictures from around St. Toms South. Enjoy!

Nice update

Great update, suburban area looks nice Awesome night shots, keep up the good work

 

peace

Nice update!

[oroen 0]

Impressive growth so far. I think a scenic drive along the coastline would be the perfect thing. There are some out of place landmarks around though, especially that Big Ben next to the highway interchange. I realize it's part of the park but it just doesn't look right. And I think I see the Washington Monument where it doesn't quite fit in either in that last night overview picture. The suburban areas look nice though, where you seem to have made a nice system of arterials and feeder roads. Overall it looks much better than anything I started making.

[Glenni 1,444]

nice city!!!great start!!!

[sirgeoj2 1]

looking good!

[palmgurl 1]

love the city i like how you are sticking you eye to detail i like that palmgurl loves realisticness!!! keep that up now!

[Jerebannus XVI 7]

there is only one word i can think of to discribe this cj, wow!

[schooner2 2]

How do you have those black top highways??  Very Nice CJ, BTW!

[who_dun_it 0]

schooner2: The black top highways can be found here. http://thorvin.free.fr/sc4/index.php   Thanks for visiting.

Jerebannus XVI: Yeah I think that it's wow, considering I wowed (I dont feel that, that is word but whatever) myself just fooling around with a simple setup to test my little brother's computer.

 

palmgurl: Detail is something I am always been doomed to be stuck with. Heh, glad you love St. Toms.

GLENNI, sirgeoj2: Welcome to St. Toms and glad you like what you see.

 

oroen: Heh, the landmarks were just placed because the city makes more than double their costs a year so I wanted to waste the cash somewhere. For the road I just do my best to try and copy things from where I live and what I've seen in different pictures.

 

Red Hawk, newy2, Traffic_Jam: Welcome back!

 

Sorry for the lack of updates last weekend. Military duties called. Hopefully I'll have one up later tonight.

[Codythemonkey 0]
