89James89, 47ply, gigius76, pinkindustry, Prophet42, and tankmank:
Thank you all for the wonderful encouragement!
Ln X: Amazing! I can't stop clapping. Also is Vortext going to be uploading this T21 mod to the STEX or LEX?
That’s a good question. I imagine this was a person project of his, so the odds of it seeing a public release are slim – but I know for a fact that he’s a really nice guy, so if you PM him and ask him nicely he would probably be happy to share the file ![]()
Urban Constanta: amazing. i just love it. my favourite CJ and by far the most complex. A real city evolution through history.
Thank you for the kind words! An city evolution through time is exactly what I am trying to achieve, so I’m glad that is getting across ![]()
juliok92012: I ask the same question of Ln X. Everything is ... perfect !!! Your lots are amazing! Not of to explain. Everything is very well done !!!
Thank you! As for the vortex file, please see what I wrote regarding Ln X’s questions.
Kim Sunwoo: Amazing work in this city journal. I wouldn't even know where to start with a XIX century city. So well done!
Honestly, I didn’t know where to start at first either… this has been a work in progress since the beginning. Thank you for the compliment.
rubberduck3y6: I love the animation that shows how the shore's been built out with the docks.
Thanks! I’m trying out a number of .gif software… I’m glad you like it.
dljrfn2000: That explains the snow in the Northeast, hell froze over, the best CJ around Simtrop is back
LOL… yes… It has been a while since a real update. You got me ![]()
Kevenbro: Always great to see New SorGun
I’m always glad to see you stop by, bro!
Schulmanator: AWESOME! So glad to have you back!
Thanks! I’ll be honest… I feel obligated to treat the Kitty character with much care and respect, seeing how you brought her into this world ![]()
NMUSpidey: This is simply put a fantastic journal, and this entry is especially good: not only do we get to see how the town is developing into a city, but we get some real depth added to longtime characters. Sensational work, really.
Thanks Spidey! I’m always glad to hear some nice words from a top notch writer like you. It encourages me when I’m just staring at a blank word document that is supposed to be my next journal entry…
Bastet69008: Hmmm I thought it was supposed to be a SC4 CJ, not a set of Assassin's Creed 3 gameplay screenshots! Awesome work here! What have you used to have this view in the last picture? I'd love to have a mini tutorial on that ![]()
This post gives the basics (be sure to skip the adfly thing if it pops up)… it’s not much more than a bunch of zoom 6 pics stitched together and altered using the photoshop ‘perspective’ tool.
slickbg56: Incredible! The transition shots. The lotting. The MMP. The authenticity. I'm starting to think that time travel may have been invented! What settings are you running to get the pictures to look the way that they do?
Thanks for the kind comment! I don’t really change the images much… I apply a slight (20%transparent) sepia filter on some of them to give it an ‘old’ feel, but that’s about it. If you have any images in particular, I can try to be more specific.
Huston: Wow, some really interesting development! This really getting good, and that image of New SorGun's transition over the years ![]()
Thanks! I have a few more of those planned ![]()
1131989: Where'd you get those boarded-up retail buildings in the first picture? I think they're from c.p. but I don't know if he's released them yet.
ed: Never mind, found explanation.
Glad you found the answer – Yep, C.P. was very kind to let me use some of his unreleased models. I especially wanted to showcase the ‘abandoned’ look that he’s been working on.
OreoToast: How did you get the bird's eye view photo?
Check my reply to Basetet69008 a few questions above.
Ultramegatiny: Beautiful both visually and narratively! For some reason, the cemetery really popped out at me. I love what you did with the paths and trees there!
Thank you! Blunder also made a comment about that – I’ll try and get a few more pics of that area in the coming updates.
Superbacon: I see there's a little development going on across the wider river next to New SorGun. Are there plans yet to bridge the river mouth?
Good eyes... Yep, that area has been settled for many years now, but they have had to rely on a shoddy ferry to get across the river. Yes, a bridge is most definitely in the cards, but the current political crisis may be a factor in getting that completed… (dum dumm duuuummm!)
nu-man: i need to know how did you get the view of the last picture?
edit: i found out.It is just like how i thought it is.
That was a popular questions this week – Thanks for your interest!
Citycowboy: wow. go cougs
Thanks! Go Cougs!
Jetty Jockey: I'm so glad to return and see an old friend still thriving. New SorGun has always been one of my favorites and is even more beautiful and detailed than ever. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a few dozen updates to catch up on ![]()
Wow, a blast from the past! I’m so glad to see you stop by. Does this mean we may get to see Cape May County revived?!?
Next time...
Kitty sat next to the lighthouse as she looked out on SorGun bay. The sound of the waves crashing against the rocks was soothing, which was silly because she was still a Kentucky country girl at heart. With the election always on her mind, it was times like these that she was glad she could still come out here to decompress. Things were heating up in town, so moments like this were becoming more precious every day.
