Cross of the Mountains

Welcome to Destiny

*Ding* Please fasten your setbelts, we will arrive at DSP shortly. *Ding*

Here, we arrive at currently the only operational airport in the region. Its temperary inter-regional code is DSP.

Even though this is a small rural town, it still has a pretty respectable transit center.

Now, here is a slightly outdated map (two ramps have been moved) but otherwise is accurate.

A few looks around Cross of the Mountains:

Hwy 31 Exit 1 to Ring Road

A close look at the overpass and DDOT sign

Also, by looking at this pic and the ovepass pics, you can tell we have magical color-changing rocks.

Hope you enjoyed,

Sun glare way too bright
Too many curves along BTM
Sign way too big
blahblahblah.... 

Ah well, you already know all that coming from me. Overall, the update is actually quite cool.  Excellent terraforming and choice of effects, and I actually like big signs!  Might be a better idea to move it to the other side of the overpass though. 

The best thing:  the map.  An enalrgement from SC4 with overlays.  Love it!

Looking forward to the next!

This is a great update Bue !! I love your Farms and Flora...It looks excellent... Your

rhw always never fail to amaze me....And your coastline is very detailed and realistic...

The 5th pic down was my favorite...It gave the sense of rural, but a passage to an urban Metropolis...

Great job....

Sincerely,

Duke of York

Brian: Thanks! I'm glad you liked the signage. And yes, I will keep the updates "a-coming"

Haljackey: lol thanks! I wish I could but because of a last minute change  I couldn't fit it over there. Glad you liked the map! Even though I almost tore my hair out making it lol.

Duke of York: Hey Duke, thanks! I try to give a mix of details and a few parts here and there to show that there is a lot more to this region that just one type of stuff.

Jake: Thanks, i try my best with the RHW, to make it realistic and yet a easy choice for the SC4 traffic sim.

Mightygoose: Thanks, maybe I should have said to you and Hal that its obviously a "slow" zone and a spur but oh well.  Oh crap, I thought I turned it off this time lol. Ah well.
