Kunimura - Where the Land, Sea and Rolling Hills meet

[dev 47]

Can I have lot #1? And can we get more than one lot with different businesses?

[jtportland 184]

afro, cool city journal! i like how your city is having an olympics! nice to see more people getting into it... and i think have a few lots for you that you might want to add to your 2012 site, if you're going for the ultra modern look that is , click the pic in my sig to see what olympic buildings i've been working on. keep up the great work! i'm looking forward to seeing more pictures!

[AfroThunda 1]

Dev: Sure you can have lot #1 no problem, and yes you can have more then one since there doesnt seem to be much interest... So, on lot #1 you want the Embassy Suites? What other lot do you want and what building?

 

Jtportland: Thanks, I have seen your progress and it looks amazing! I really like that stadium, I'm not sure about the water building yet... haha.

 

Keep in mind folks if you want to be a vender all the work you have to do is tell me what number lot you want and what building you want on it! Nothing else, its just for fun.

Today is a special day, its my first update on page number 7. Thanks to the over 6,300 people who have veiwed my Cj. If it wasnt for all of you I wouldnt have done any of this and would have never made it off of page 1. So thank you's goes out to all the simtrop members who have supported this Cj.

 

I decided to take a break from the Olympic Complex. I will be showing you all a more in depth look at the Town of Suess Heights, Named after the great author who was born on a farm here in the early 1900's. Dr. Suess wrote over 44 childrens books during his career. We took a quick look at a Research center located here a few pages back (I think page 5). Now with over 8,000 residents I thought it would be fitting to showcase this fast growing town.

 

Here we can see the Gates of Suess, travlers coming south from Downtown on I-93 are welcomed by these beautiful parks.

 

Here is the CBD located in Suess Heights. There is over 4,000 commercial jobs located here.

 

Here we can see the starting point for the most travled rail road in Kunimura. The L. Rogan line runs north and south. Most of the rail commuters from the suburbs ride this rail.

 

Here is the first rail station located on the L. Rogan rail. This is where the first 400 commuters board their train.

 

Here is a local favorite. Mondo Burger, Welcome to Mondo Burger, home of the Mondo Burger. Can I take your order?

 

Here is the Suess Heights High School, home to the Suess Top Cats.

 

Here is the Oarkwood Terrace Golf Resort, the founder of this Golf Resort was Milt Burns. To the top left you can also see the Dr. Suess Memorial Monument.

 

Here we can see the club house, Burns Manor and also Burns Circle. This Resort was founded in 1968 after Burns tragic death.

 

Thats all for today, please comment! DONT forget I am still looking for Venders in my OLympic Contest. Thanks again.

nice very nice city

Update: 07/19/04

 

Today I wanted to show you all a new highway that was built. R-246 was built in order to expand the suburban sprawl of Kunimura to the north west.

 

https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files/242a.jpg>

Here we can see R-246 and R-676 I put I instead of R and I am running short on time to fix this but thats why it says I on the map, but these are not interstates their routes so sorry for the confusion. Anyway R-246 will be built in order to provide high-wealth housing and gated communities along the shores of Wachala Lake.  The lake has been free from development for all of time, the mayor hopes this will provide more high-wealth jobs to Downtown Kunimura. Outlined in green are the areas where these communities will be located.

 

Here is R-246 along with R-676, and R-78, once again sorry for the mess up on the picture.

 

Well I will have more as the area developes, keep an eye out for an olympic complex update which will be very soon. If your interested in a lot there are still a nu,ber avalible. Thanks for your comments.

[DuskTrooper 314]

I particularly like the way my Technetium tower stands out!

[zero_eclipse 3]

Love the business districts, the variety of buildings are great
Got a question though, in the Middle business district screenshot, theres a building lit with green on the left, which one is that?

[AfroThunda 1]

Thanks for the comments everyone!

 

Casper3141: I've started on the new Gated Community area and its turning out well, I will have an update of that soon.

 

DuskTrooper: Thanks, I really like your buildings and I have 2 or 3 that have grown in my city. You can see another (forgot the name sorry) in the last screen shot. Thanks for your amazing work.

 

Zero_eclipse: That building is the Emerald Park building by cobb, you can find it here... https://www.simtropolis.com/lots/index.cfm?mode=files&filetype=all&Str=cobb  

 

Thanks again for all the comments. I will have an update soon, so please check back... and once again if your interested in being a vender please let me know.

Oh no, something terrible has happened! I went to DL the Mapgen program and ended up deleting a file I need to run SC4.

 

This is what happenes when I try and run SC4... So I regret to inform you that This Cj will be on hold until I can get my orginal SC4 CD from my friend and re-install it. I updated my drivers and Direct-X and that didnt work so I am afraid that this is my only option.

 

I will let you all know when I am back up and running shouldnt be too long I hope. If anyone has any ideas or questions about anything in Kunimura please let me know.

[alt+tab 2]

I hope you can fix it soon! O my..........

[screamomatic 14]

hahahahahaha.......oh, dang that sucks

[+Guest]

The CJ was looking so good but now comes that problem. Oh well once your problem is fixed, the CJ will resume.

[AfroThunda 1]

Update: 07/26/04

 

Turns out that when I updated my drivers I some how updated them for the wrong video card. So that caued my windows to not load... thats why I havent been around the past few days. But I managed to fix that. I still havent been able to re-install SC4 but I will keep you updated on when that happens. Thanks a lot.
