I needed to add on a ton of room for parkland without haveing to restart the region from scratch or other ways i rendered 3 other seperate regions for the space i needed. the only thing i have to do now is photoshop the 4 regions together at the end before i post the full region. this will take some work and new challenges for me matching up the regions.... lots of counting.... but i think it will work out great click on image for larger view.. it is very very large, 33M, be warned!

New Direction

I have taken a new direction in Parkland. I got bored with the flat land of old Parkland. so i merged two of my favorite maps together, vancouver and montreal, found here on the stex by a simple search, and created this map below. it has some of the same layout as the old parkland, but with more scenery and hills and a lot nicer to look at. im excited to get started on this new chapter of Parkland.... click here to see larger full size image

revisiting downtown.... highway sound walls, speed limit signs, and highways signs have been added, and the original brick streets have been restored downtown as part of the beautification of downtown. the planning commision has also settled in on two different options for the new bridge the connect downtown with campton... here are the two options, voice your opinion

Hi! Big News! I have decided to take a different approach to the CJ! No... I am not abandoning realism! I am fast forwarding 20 years into the future. After a little development and growth, so we can see some real growth, i will have the next update probably tonight, hopefully....

Transfer of Power I have some news. Not bad news, but probably new to ST. I am not going to be able to continue with this CJ myself for a while. I am going to be preoccupied with real life for a while, not sure how long. I am transferring this CJ over to my partner, who has been around ST for a long time now. newyorkrunaway1 He has been around here for a while now doing various things. He is the one who turned me onto SC and to ST. What an experience it has been. I have received most of my experience...

I have taken a very new approach to Parkland... I have always thought about doing this, but finally got enough guts to completly change the city... still focused on realism... but without the highways downtown... like many many large cities, parkland has done away with the downtown highways and replaced them with urban boulevards.... you can see a vrey great example at this site : http://www.planofnashville.com/ here are the before and after pics... BEFORE AFTER All the red glowing lines are highways that...
