    Thanks for all the comments guys 2.gif

    @ Jazye, it goes to TCS (Timet Central Station) and leaves Timet. Maybe I'll add more tracks later.

    Here's the progress on Groosham so far. 1/3 of the original industry is still there, the rest has been destroyed/replaced by offices and housing. The main reason for this was asbestos, and the danger of collapsing. Groosham lies in the middle of Tumber Forest. The oldest forest around Timet, mostley oak trees are found there.

    The new housing projects. The mayor has stopped further developement of the land in this area, as Tumber Forest is an icon for Timet.

    gamescreen0066.jpg

    Here are the original buildings: the old industry. Pictures made on top of Groosham Bridge.

    When going further west the farmland begins. The farmland is a part of Tumber forest, as they are dating from the same time as the forest. Therefore you may not build on this land.

    gamescreen0064.jpg

    This were the first set of pictures of Groosham, further developement is on the way, as it isn't finished yet.

    I hope you enjoyed this update!

    Yeah it is - but I think i'm going to replace it by some lower bridge. It doesn't fit in the "forest scene" if you know what im talking about.

    The railtracks are just for eye-candy. They don't work because MC didn't finish them.

    Looks great man! The reason why I havn't fired this game up since March is because It's hard for me to play with just one frigging lot size per density. The residential in this game sucks. I can't go from 1890 Queen Annes to 70's California ranch. It's all slanted for a European look. Very little North American style single family density houses. U can't make a 30's style neighborhood with crammed houses on top of each other. I can't wait till those two things are implemented then our cities can really look more detailed.

    Yeah, the main problem with CXL is that teh neighborhoods and cities in general look way too much alike --- I hear CXL 2011 will add 700 more buildings though?

    This week I've been working on Main CBD and it's getting real close to the finish! I like the new CBD a lot better. Here it is.

    Traffic is getting bad. Anyone has some good road ideas to improve it?

    I'm going to redevelop Timet totally, and here I show you the areas I start with. Everytime I finished one area, I post an update.

    Ok guys I got some really bad news.. There's a virus on my laptop, and now it doesn't do anything. I already had some crashes for a while, but I didn't think it was a virus. Now my laptop is formatted... I only got a back-up of timet dating from july 25th which is way to outdated. That means Groosham is much smaller and all the redevelopements are gone. I'm not going to redesign it all over. It took me a week!! Timet was my biggest city so far 15.gif I really loved it everytime I started the city I first just took a tour on the highways and spot the landmarks around the city..

    This means I'll stop the city journal of Timet and I'll maybe start a new CJ.. again. this is getting frustrating.

    Sorry guys if I dissapointed you...

    WOOOOOOOOOW! your city CBD looks mouth watering, literally one place I wish was real. Sorry to hear about your annoying problem mate. I would be frustrated too if I was you. But at least you showed us what an amazing city you built and shared the memories. I hate virus's so much too. Hopefully you can build another city in your time, when you feel like it. Don't feel sorry we are truly glad to see such a city be shown off. Life is a b*tch sometimes.
