Wow..this CJ is quite amazing, dude! I particulrly like the photoshop job, as well as the neat stuff you did with that tramway. I can't wait for an update!


SC4, Forevermore!

Currently preoccupied with architecture school...lurking with caution.

    All right. First of all, thanks for views/comments on Eladremme CJ! You're the best, guys 44.gif

    To Shadow_Assassin: Oh, the name of the highway is Iptihondra it's a regional highway E-667 :}

    To Superchad: Oh well, i use Photoshop for that :}


    Ok, it's not a full update again, just another map posting. I've finished the map with the landmark names so...

    Oh, thank you every one for reading and watching this CJ! And for the comments aswell!

    About creating maps: It's easy but boring. To create a regional map like this, you must collect all the city maps by entering every city square and after this just reconcile them in Photoshop.
    About the landmark names - i've done it in Corel Draw, there is such a feature - fit text to path. You draw the line that accords to the landmark, and after this fit the landmark name to this line.

    Important: Now.. may be it will be kind of bad news for some one, but oh well.. I will not continue this CJ. I've got really bored with Eladremme region. I even deleted all Eladremme stuff from my PC, so there is no any chance to resume working on it.

    I don't know, may be i'll start a new one. My current region is Silva. A really small - 4x4 large city squares. So, the first town that i'm building now is Lindaraja.
    So, if i'll start a new CJ, it will be about this region.
    by the way, i'm kinda peased and amazed with superb Cycledogg's terrain mod. It fits really well to my new region. 

    Here are some pics of Lindaraja. I've just finished working on the basement of the old historic part of the town.

    Aaaaaaaah!! OMG, amazing as usual!

    I guess that map is a cool way to end the cj. We all get bored building in the same region.

    Since Lindaraja is looking totally mindblowing, I'm still happy!

    Wow, great CJ you've got here. Too bad you wont/can't continue it. But I'm looking forward to your new one.

    Maybe this has been asked and answered earlier, but what grass thingie do you use? I saw on some pictures that there's some kind of grass between your houses, and it doesn't look like the Open Grass (or what it's called) which costs like 15 each month that's in the game from the start.

    Is it on the stex or.. ?

    I'm sorry but how do you find and collect the maps?
    Hope you make a new CJ! I have enjoyed reading this one.

    The texture is actually in the game, although you don't see it too often. You can get a grass lot with the texture on it in the Marrast Embankment Set.

    Hey that land looks very nice! I really like that wall.. Makes it looks very realistic. I should also say that the trees do make everything look so damn real.

    Great work!! Looking forward for the new CJ looks very promising.

    Beautiful beginning for a new city.
    Sorry to hear about Eladremme, but aslong as you will be making some kind of new CJ I'll be happy. For presentation you set the standard.

    What?

    Eladremme's gone! Aww, but no matter, I'm looking forward to what you'll do with this region. Maybe a name change of this topic is in order..?


    Nine degrees of separation??

    Hi Marrast,

    I understand you. When you dont enjoy and/or are tired of creating a SC4 region, it is time to start a new one 5.gif !!!
    I wait to see the release of this new promising region. Looks very different from Eladremme, and I like it too 44.gif !!!
     
    Have a nice day !!!
