Compilation update -Background information
In my CJ Heimen, the background information has always been one of personal favourites. During two years I made a lot of newspapers, transport maps, flags, road signs and more. In this update I have a compilation of some of the best of those I have made. I hope you like it!
Roadgeekery
Road signs give an extra dimension to the highway system, or actually any road showcased in a CJ. I made a couple of road signs for my CJ, most of them involved some sort of ‘road trip’
The first road trip was along the river Tuur. The road passed along a lot of small rural villages, below are a couple of my favourite pictures from
this update.





Below are some of the other signs I produced, in chronological order:
51.6|The entrance sign of the village of Soetedal

51.7-10|Highway signage




5.11-12|The latest generation of road signs, made with InkScape


Media
Newspapers are always a nice addition to a CJ, I’ve never been really good at making them myself though. I did make a couple and, inspired by the CJ Utgard, I plan to make some more in the near future. Telvision channel TVH also showed its face one time. HeimenTourism has been the most loyal advertiser…
5.13|My first ever newspaper, save as a .jpg in paint, so horribly pixilated.

5.14-16|Then came the Heimen Telegraph. Better quality than The International



5.17-19|The mobile version of the Heimen Telegraph was continued for quite some time, I'll try to re-introduce it soon




5.20-22|Heimen television channels TVH and HPT, now merged into HRK



5.23-25|Advertisments



As I didn’t want to spam you to dead with even more pictures, making for an endless loading time, the second half of this update will be released later this week.
I hope you enjoyed it!

Fantastic! I love how the towns are expanding along the river. Very realistic.
@Ggamgus: That’s exactly what i tries to achieve, thanks!
Nice Region view, Nice to see how it developed
@Republicmaster: Thank you very much! I won’t stop expanding it!
Love these regional pictures..
I think the new terrain and water mod makes the area look totally different from the first pictures with the maxis original.
@Fox: I’m glad I converted to terrain mods, thanks!
