4.gifAs you can see my fellow friends, simtropians, and fans. Yes, after all this time, I have decided to start a new region. I am aiming for as realistic as I can be but also I intend to have fun with one. Cleo Townsend Region is almost gone as if a dream, but the mayor herself felt as if it was time to move on and see what awaited her in this land of the vast open but yet partly hilly plain she called GOOSEVILLE.
 
*EDIT*
This City Journal is many regions and cities in one. From one crash to another with this computer it has been impossible to keep working on a single region for a long amount of time. I've been meaning to make this EDIT post for a while. But please feel free to leave comments, constructive critism, even suggestions, good or bad. Just don't be too mean to me.9.gif
As the mayor moved her way up to being President of many regions, you can see the journey that this has taken. I hope y'all enjoy my CJ. I've worked very hard on it and I am so proud of how far I have come along. Thanx again to my friends and fans and I hope there are many more city journals to come!
 
Sincerely,
MsCharamut1969

    This is just the beginning everyone. I promise we'll take a more in depth look in the cities and see how the local Sims are doing.

    from the region views, the towns of Prissvillle and Silverstadt Springs look more interesting- like the way they are layed out along the river.

    And a city isn't complete without a Major League Stadium, Home of the Cleo Cats...record 15-0

    Glad to see you started a new region... Moment of silence for Cloe... Ok, well looks like you've got a great start. I like the region your using, are you using a map you made by yourself? Keep up the good work, and I cant wait to see more pics.

    WOW, lots of comments. Ok, to answer some questions, I found the map on the MEX. Which i don't know if that's cheating or not but as we all know I suck at transforming maps. It was called goosefoot. Ummm someone asked about distressed buildings, I'm not sure why it does that but I've been getting a lot of that lately. AND my comm is always on the downlow. I don't get it.
    thatmonkeysim: Let's be resonable on Cleo Townsend Region. That was my first journal, and I think I have learned a thing or two in playing for the past umpteen years it seems like. I think I want to take a different approach to this journal, but I haven't figured out quite what yet. I know I want it to be interesting and I want everyone to keep following the story so y'all will have to wait to see.......but thanx for the comments. I hope this journal is better than the last one, but hey it can only get better right? (((LOL)))35.gif
     
    Love Always,

    BTW, this city is called Karaoke Bluff. Can't imagine where I got that name from. But I wasn't expecting the city to turn out like it did. my best pic of the hwy system wouldn't post so i hope you can kind of get a feel of what the hwy system looks like. PLEASE let me know what y'all think of this city and maybe i can try it with others....

    Beautiful, awsome, great ! Awsome work with those cities ! some of them are great. I really like the use of highways, and the cities along the river .Very nice work ! I don't like the use of some lots ... but great work ! : ) very nice...
     
    i think you should add trees, rivers, mountains or something to the non-build cities cause' they look bad in the region shot 7.gif

    Thanx for the comment.

    looking pretty nice, Charamut - i like the fact you aren't going for all towers, and even aren't afraid to show off some of your slum areas (hey, i like slums...gives the cities more realistic looks).
     
    couple questions...or at least requests. in your regional picture, you have two very large blue things, which look like man-made ponds...are those ponds, if not, what are they, and can we see a closer shot.
    also, it looks like you have updated a bit, any chance we can see an update of the full map?

    Howdy once again everybody! Happy Easter to everyone, hope the Easter brought you everything you wanted!!!
    Been a long time since I updated or even played for that matter. This city is called Cleo Cityway. I'm up to 132,000 something Sims (that is if my game saved before it locked up) This is my biggest city I have ever made, well, as many Sims as I have ever gotten. I have some more from this city later in another update, but here are the current pics right now.

    getting very nice and very realistic, MsCharamut...a few towers with lots of of smaller buildings...kinda reminds me of a couple of the more successful communities in this area.
    how is your airport usage on the island? i had thought of trying that a long, long time ago, but it didn't really happen...but with the ferry, that seems a good idea.
