Welcome back to Selbring. Serving the working class community with pride and 'dignity' since 1934.

Lol haha, y'know what, I'll be sure to make an update for Onimay sometime :P

Vlasky

Thanks a lot :D

Fox

Thanks Fox :D

Yeah, the story's a little hasty, but it's just cause of the time I have to write it. It'd be better if I gave a little longer to think about but yeah oh well. I actually have a pretty interesting and rather sinister story for this, and if I could, I'd turn into a game. Thanks though :P

gigius76

Thanks, great of you to say :)

slickbg56

Lol yeah, got it. Thanks :P

TekindusT

Just remember that some of that inspiration is from T&R :)

Leszczyk

Thank you :)

Schulmanator

Oh indeed. Just be glad it's in a parallel universe huh? :P

timmytams

Thanks, most of these are NYBT, and work by Jasoncw. I won't be able to link you to all of them, but if you search NYBT, Darknono, Jasoncw, and industrial, you'd get some very interesting results, namely some of these buildings I have. There's actually only a few vanilla content in these pics :P

paulmc

Thanks, Lot Editing really does add to these pics :P

You'd be surprised. People in Ahern would be far more happier than the people in the city [y'know, unless they're indoctrinated by PyroCorp, then that'd be a different story], just because that this area lacks any real surveillance. Rogue civilians in Ahern are really the lucky ones :P

Schriefer

Thanks, smog's just the standard here :P

Richie99

Thanks :)

______________________________________

Note: CJ BAT crossover stuff, yadda yadda, Couldn't be bothered to finish and detail the update, yadda yadda, and other random things. I got lazy and didn't really finish this update, and rougly put any effort and input. I spent a quick 5 minutes on Lot Editor [seemed a lot longer], but I got bored of it and just plopped what I could and sprinkled on some MMP for a magically disgusting effect. Topped off with some desaturation, color balancing and cloud coverage on Photoshop. A lot easier when you pre-record your actions and just have to press one button

:PThere's also not much of a story here, so today, you just get to enjoy the pictures.

Another thing about this update is that it's centered on a landfill area. It's not common to find an update that is centered on trash and garbage disposal and storage. I dunno. Just thinking really

:P

And not to get sci-fi fans excited over this MagLev, no it's not functional. Sorry to disappoint

:P

So garbage disposal huh? Where does Selbring's garbage go after aristocrats are done with whatever they have? Food, electronics and otherwise? To answer that; Fort Bastion. Several kilometers west of the metro in the outskirts of the county, Fort Bastion lies, the waste center of the region. And with a name like that, you'd be expecting some sort of nearby military installation that acts as a vigil watch over the borders of the city right? Well of course, it's not called Fort Bastion for nothing. But that's not what we're at right now. Just enjoy the dump for now.

As you can see, around the Landfill area, there is severe overgrowth of plants and marsh floral species, provoked by specific industrial waste. While in the city, smog, waste and pollution kill what remains of the city's plantations, the opposite occurs here.

Connected via the state's intricate system of corporate-owned MagLev rails, speedy trash delivery that comes at the expense of the working class keeps the streets of the wealthy nearly spotless. Districts such as New Alister, Altanorch Harbor and the Lakewood Hills.

Meanwhile, lurking in the shadows of the horrendous smog, Underground resistance members scout the area through the outlying marshes, spying on the military installations that claim Fort Bastion.

They watch, lying in wait.

Along the edges of the marsh, meets the edges of a river.

By night, lights swtic on, lining the and tracing the path of the MagLev lines that connect the very landfill that serves the aristocratic community.

The Chamber of Commerce neglected to include this scenic area on the travel brochure... I wonder why :P

For a landfill it looks great. The marsh is amazing and great use of the ground high speed train network.
