Nice park! (Thank you Pegasus!!!)https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif>

[smirkazor 1]

well you wanted more screenshots, well u got it.

 

this first one is the ever developing residential area on the mainland which is connected to the main island by tunnel and by highways.

 

 

and to keep up with demand i built a new commercial district on one of the small islands in the delta as seen in the series of pics below.

thats all for now, but there shore is more to come soon as i am now getting broadband 2morrow YESSSSSS. so there will be alot more. and just to finnish it off i had shown a similar pic before but this is a much closer view, and its the mysterious lights beneath the sea. can youi guess what it is?

 

 

i will leave you guessing untill someone knows what it is, just to let you know i know what it is.

What you are seeing is a ship or ferry going across the water, however, it is too dark to see the ferry and you only see its wave thingys at the sides.https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif>

hey everyone, it is time for another update, i have had some extra free time to continue with maxwell multinational. and it sure is looking great.

 

i will first show the overall region look and then give pictures showing the different zooms of the newest addition to maxwell-multinational.

 

https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files/River%20Basin5.jpg border=0>

 

 

next is the overview of the area i have developed.

 

 

 

the newest commercial district to cope with the mass residential growth.

 

 

 

 

a closer view of the large residential district.

 

 

well thats all i have for now, its looking very nice. by the way, that long curved steep hill was made by freek plate movements in a very short amount of time which never effected anything else in the region, very wierd.

p.s. only one person has had a guess at what that picture with the lights are, surly you could make an effort.

[Llama_Sim 0]

i like how neat and tidy this region is. Keep up the good work!

[simmax 0]

The area you develop is beautiful!

Some areas are too neat IMO. Every single thing seems planned. It's good so far, but when the region will grow it might become repetitive. I don't know what your projects are, so I can't tell...

[smirkazor 1]

when im working really hard on a project or im just basically expanding my cities, i come up with all these different ideas, for example i decided to add that long curved steep hill, to make it interesting. so you can expect new and different setouts of cities throughout, so there is alot to look forward to.

[MsCharamut1969 8]

well, well, well Smirk, you've been busy...I love what you did with the tunnles under the highways...how in the world did you do that and the park was awesome! you're just way to talented for me! https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/22.gif>

Have to teach me some of your tricks.

 

great job on the region so far, Better keep it updated!https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif>

[whiteshark365 563]

I'll admit I try and look for realism in cities, but i like your city. The way it's developing with the islands of the river delta specifcally. I also like the terraforming. Keep up the work.

I might as well start handing out bunnies, here is a few. https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif>https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif>https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif>

[smirkazor 1]

thnx so much for your comments everyone, mscharamut, im not that talented, but i do have alot of ideas. so far only one person has had a guess to what those lights are under the water.

 

here it is again.

 

 

goodluck, and seeya all l8er for when my next update comes.

[MTLT_17 27]

Those are boat trails, I guess that there is glitch so all you see is the trails, and not the boat hop this helps. Great CJ!https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/2.gif>

Good job smirkazor, that is a nice region. But I have just one suggestion.

I don't like the EL rail going over the forested mountain like that. Just a suggestion, but I think you should destroy the EL rail that goes over the mountain and replace it with a subway. Replace the former EL rail with either a road or trees.

 

Just remember that this is a suggestion that I think would make those mountains look better. I am not trying to be critical. I don't wanna start anything, ya know...https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/2.gif>

 

Nice region, and keep going.

[smirkazor 1]

Thnx for all of you comments, and for MTLT_17 and Emma LB, you are way off. so im gonna give you all a little clue, its from one object and makes a noise.

 

thnx for your suggestion Mdz1001, but im more into the visual kind of transportation options, i agree that it doesnt look right but thats what you get when masix cant be arsed to make a tunnel for the EL rail. but thnx nonetheless.

 

sorry for the absence of any proper updates but i have been very busy with school work, getting ready for my gcse's, so hopefully i can get some time to do some more. seeyas l8er.

CONGRATULATIONS SPLIME, you have awnsered correct, it is indeed a car that is underwater, shame on u who thought it was an invisible boat, shame on you.

 

anyway now for ur prize, u get a bunnyhttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif>. lucky you, and u may even be able to get a copy of my next region that will be in development soon, that is if you can guess how that car got there. thats right, if YOU, can guess how that car got there, then you could get a coppy of my upcomming region, good luck.

I'm deciding between a bridge destroyed by a disaster, or a modd. I'll have the final answer soon.

EDIT: or maybe an underwater tunnel. Time to test this stuff.

EDIT 2: Will the region copy be a map or the developed region? Also, will it have mods used? I'm asking because I have none of the mods (or lots/buildings) from ST, except for 3 of Trolca's boxcars, and some Vu buildings.

[durcsaw 4]

I do this a lot, only with tanks though. You approach a river bank, and slowly let it roll in. Sometimes it takes a few trys, but it's worth it.

https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif width=18>

Update: must be off road of coarse.

[Chappington 131]

Thanks for an answer. I'm still gonna test it though.

What's funny is when you fire a shell under water. Ploooowwff!

If you take a limo (misspelled I think) under water you can give the fishies money.

[Chappington 131]

No luck with that, so I'm gonna say it's the rain modd.

[durcsaw 4]

TRY WHAT I SAID FIRST!

https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif width=16>

[Chappington 131]

OK, I tried what durcsaw said. It worked, but still had the green thing. So there fore, I'm guessing it was partially photoshopped and partially durcsaw's strategy.

 

Along the lines of the CJ: The city really looks nice, but it needs suburbs!

[durcsaw 4]

HERE IS A COOL THING ABOUT SIMCITY4, /TRASH/LANDFILL/CHEAT/.

 

WHEN YOUR CITY STARTS TO SHOW SIGNS OF MUCKYNESS, BUILD A LANDFILL.

 

WHEN THE LANDFILL IS FULL (2X2) AND THERE IS NO TRASH IN THE CITY, DROP WASTE DISPOSAL FUNDING IN THE TOILET (0). YOUR UTILITIES ADVISOR WILL MAKE A STINK, BUT YOU'LL NEVER HAVE TRASH AGAIN. ONLY KEEP THE 2X2 LANDFILL.

 

THIS WORKS WITH SIMCITY4 ONLY AND MAYBE RUSH HR, BUT NOT ULTIMATE.

[MsCharamut1969 8]

Hmmmmmmmm I did not know THAT trick. Sounds interesting....I have landfills in 90% of my cities.

 

your CJ is still looking awesome Smirk. Just thought I would check back to see how you were coming along!

[smirkazor 1]

so far no one has got it right so far, i will be accepting awnsers for a few days, the deadline should be on monday, uk time, say around about 6:30pm.

 

the region that will be the prize for the person who gets it right will be one that i have made, i will keep the original, but you get the coppy, it will just be an empty region with all the relief sorted so you can build where ever.

 

thats all for now, seeyas l8er.
