Awesome seaports dude ! holy they are huge, the storm pics are cool , i like the lightning shots a lot, i can see lots of improvement now that this cj is maturing , great work looking forwards to your next update, Has New Ark grown any larger ? i would like to see more.

[Voulpiotis 4]

I wish that CJ does not die so early..... You surely have something else to show...... A really large city, for serius city builders as you said... Some updates please! We want more!

Hey Guys ,

 Thx to all that visited and left comments,i been real busy at work

region and cities.Sorry guys but all i got for now is a few personal replies

, the next big update is going to be later this month, also New Haven , cj

is 1 year old , this month so im hoping to do something to celebrate that

date also.I logged in expecting to find my cj somewhere around page 6, was

pleasantly supprised to find it on page 2-).

Jaquilina . Hi jacquilina ,Thanks ,thanks , thanks & thanks again,also

            congrats on your trixies, you surely deserve them,The olimpian

            city tile is NHP ,s AlanUK map with a few changes, i imported the

            hole map into the west of my region, so i cant take full credit for

            that.That city is prolly the most detailed city i ever done to date

            it took a very long time for so small a population, im so pleased

             you like it.

Rewright - Heya, Thankyou , your comment was very much apprieciated.

Blade2k5 - Heya Blade , thx man , and congrtas on your trixies also, again

Dixie  -  Hi, Thankyou, it has taken a long time to build, i wouldnt even like to

          try to guess how many hours in total , upto now. thx for visiting.

Mightygoose - Hey ,The region , and population hasnt changed much recently, i tryed

             to add more detail to my last few cities, this has slowed , down growth

             a lot,the regional pop is now just under 37 million still, and i hope to

             update the regional shot on my next update .Congrats also on your trixies

             for 06 also..

RushHourFreak - Hey ,Thanks , but some of the terraforming isnt mine, its ALanUK map by

                Blade2k5, with a few personal touches.So pleased you enjoyed the pics.

                Thx for dropping by.

Salbador - Hi ,thanks for your great comments, unfortunatley i havent played the New

           Ark city tile for a few months so ,it hasnt grown any since last time,but

           i nearly have enough CO demand to make it worth playing the tile again.

           Hopefully thats also something for the next update ..

Voulpiotis - Hi thanks for your concern , i can assure you that although ,i cannot update

            regularly sometimes, this cj is not dead , and i will do my very upmost to

            keep it alive, with updates as and when.I do have lots of pics to show , but many

            area s still need finishing, i will keep you updated.Thx for visiting.

Jaquilina - Yup i know im slacking-(,but all my customers , want it doing before christmas

[jacqulina 162]

hi my friend i loved it,and thankyou so much for the congrats.i look forward to more of your work

[Voulpiotis 4]

Wow, that city is gonna grow more? I really look forward to your work Gridlock. Let's post more replies to bring that cj to the front page again. I don't want to lose such work! Also, I had been looking recently your port pics. You really should create a tutorial for industrial ports and marinas...!

[blade2k5 1,523]

Thanks Gridlock for the congrats on my Trixie wins this year.....never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I'd win a Trixie. Imagine my shock when I found out that I didn't only win one, but two. I'm still recovering from that yet.......

I was wondering where you had gotten yourself to, RL has a nasty habit of getting in the way of fun all the time don't it? Glad to hear you'll have some time to make new updates and keep us 'wowed' with you insanely populated city.....will it reach 6-7 million? Can't wait to find out.

[Gridlock 9]

Hey Guys,

Replies

Jaquilina - Thanks again jacky ,i realy enjoy your visits -).

Voulpiotis-Hi again ,yes hopefully New Ark is gonna grow a little more

           , and the port tutorial , hmm im not sure maybe ,in the

           future,but i wouldnt know realy where to begin, il give it some

           thought

Blade2k5 - Hey man , good to see you,Yeah rl sucks , but it pays the bills

           i have had some time to play though , so i thought id do a quick

           update.

Well as some of you may know , i started work on this city some 6 months ago

today the city reached 6 million population,so i though id share a few

pics of the city .

Yeah ,i know the city isnt beautiful, but this city is more about pushing the boundries of the

game , and not a realistic recreation.

Enjoy.

[Schulmanator 5,800]

That's some serious density!

[blade2k5 1,523]

Congrats on that milestone Gridlock. Now that you have 6 mil, I'm looking forward to seeing if you can get it above 7 mil.

Hey Guys,

 Schulmanator ; Yeah ,lol is it pretty dense , just the way i like it -) .

Well , i was twiddling one evening , so i decided to render a map i dl ed a while ago , and import

it into my region , the rendered map was amazing , and presented me with new challenges

that i d never realy faced with SC4 before.The Terrain in this region is superb, just hope i dont kill it .. .Im not gonna fill it with scrapers, but intend to build everywhere, where practicle, and im hoping to get some realy good regional shots later on.And maybe even a few good cities.Again all zoned and grown , with Nam , 100000 start ,but the demands of my region.

Wow great suburbs Gridlock! I wonder how powerful your pc must be to handle such a large region! [The untouched region photos with 37 million population!] Waiting for more.

[crunchbite 0]

WOW... Such a large region its unbelievable. Dallas looks like its coming along nice Those suburbs look nice too, keep this great work up

[Gridlock 9]

Hi ,  i got time for another update and a few more pics.

Replies - HamsterTK ,, Hi! Thankyou, i was quite pleased with the way they turned out

          to keep the area quite simple,so pleased you liked it.

         

          Voulpiotis ,, Hey thanks again,lol untouched with 37 mill,well you know

                   what i mean , i realy enjoy your sense of humour , and makes

                   keeping this journal so much more fun . ty

          

        Crunchbite ,, Hey , Hello , well tell you the truth Dallas isnt growing any more.

                     i could maybe distress it for a few hundred thousand more, but the

                     transport system in that city is grossly conjested now.Chances are

                     i may never actualy play that city again.Thankyou for dropping

                     by , glad you enjoyed the region and suburbs.

The second city we arrive at , within the National park, Navva

is a small town placed upon the A180 carriageway, which is the main tourist

route into the park.Although a small sleepy village , Naava town centre

has flourished, as tourist tend to use the village as a stop off point.

A selection of Residences in Navva

If ever your passing through the town, some of the Best Pub grub in the region

can be found,on this very road.
