Kota Baru, part 1

By zahrul3,

I have noticed I occasionally typed in Tanjung Perak instead of Tanjung Hitam, sorry.... . Fun fact: Tanjung Perak is the name of my city's port. ============================================================================== Kota Baru is a satellite new town located east of Tanjung Hitam, with a population of 4.500. Originally a small village named Desa Leko, the need for more housing and the development of industry to the east led to the development of Kota Baru. Composed of several clusters developed by...

User Felano suggested I should try my hand at Photoshop(I use GIMP). I usually use photoshop to create and modify textures for BATting, but I'll give it a try. Also, since it's wet season here, maybe I should go for a wet season theme. Felano: LANJUTKAN!!!!!! So here we go..... Heavy rain pouring in on oil palm plantations and rice fields north of Tanjung Hitam. Always relevant The rainforest is called a rainforest for a reason. Even the university bows down to the wrath of the rainy season....

So for this update, we'll work our way from the northern tip of the city and work our way south where we meet up with suburbs split by the authoritive border between Tanjung Perak Utara and Tanjung Perak Selatan. QUICK REPLIES: Huston: Those are conventional ACB terminals there that I added in some AC team planes, honestly I don't see how is it interesting. The shape? The size? The planes I use? That fuel tanks? QUICK GLOSSARY: utara = north selatan = south The university(Universitas Tanjung Perak) and the...

I found the SCAG pack but haven't downloaded the lot editor, so only Lion air for now Here's what it looks like now; Lion Air flight JT874 from Jakarta and flight JT349 to Medan are parked at the gates, the flight from Jakarta has just arrived after a 30 min due to flooding in Jakarta. Picture is taken around 12:03 pm midday, where the gate slots are cheaper due to a higher demand for nighttime and morning flights.

Been quite a long time since last update but I'll give this CJ an update so 'there's something' Let's start with Tanjung Perak Airport. Flights: Garuda Indonesia: Jakarta, Surabaya Lion Air: Medan, Palembang, Jakarta, Surabaya Lion Air (operated by Wings Air): Pekanbaru, Padang Nusantara Buana Air: Medan *airlines not depicted in pictures, as nobody has made a BAT of them airlines and SCAG doesn't allow me to use their models and textures so I can re-skin them, 3dsMAX won't install in my machine anyway(?)...

By zahrul3,

2 of the 3 oil rigs located around 20 km off the western coast of Tanjung Perak. Oil here is shipped to the Pulau Bulus oil refinery, where it is refined and processed into subsidised 88 octane fuel and subsidised LPG for use in Sumatra, though some are exported to Java during times of need. ========================================================= Mods used: Fukuda Chapapotex oil rig PEG Hawaiian Holiday water mod

We'll start off with Pulau Bulus, located a bridge away from downtown(Pusat) Tanjung Perak. Home to some manufacturing industries and PLTU Tanjung Perak(not pictured). Also home to 1.400 middle class people who call this island home. Located just a bridge away from Tanjung Perak, the island has its own elementary school, but teenagers in junior high and high school need to travel to Tanjung Perak to go to one of the two high schools avaluable. Moving on to the next island.... The factories of PT Filma,...

Tired of skyscrapers and boring suburbs? Tired of uninspiring cornfields? Want something quintessentially tropical? Then this might be the update for you! This is the village itself. A lot of the people here aren't farmers, they either find jobs in local shops or the factories(we'll cover that later). The village has a population of around 2.000 people. The village itself. A small community just south of the village and the rice fields surrounding it. Quite a departure from the usual cornfields and...

Let me just introduce the neighborhoods and suburbs of Tanjung Hitam Selatan(South Tanjung Hitam). Tanjung Hitam is divided into two main administrative areas(Selatan/South and Utara/North) on different city tiles. This is Lebak Selatan, an upper-middle class area situated just north of the ever growing CBD. It features Taman Lebak, one of the few parks available in Tanjung Hitam Selatan. Its home to business owners, high level managers as well as doctors. This is the southern part Mentari. Situated...
