So, you might notice this update is a little short...and that it's been a while. I worked on this city for probably close to a good month or so once I finished Elmore, but about a month or so ago I must've moved some plugins around, because now when I go to load the city I get a CTD. I'd take the time to fix it, but quite honestly I have a pretty big plugins folder, and I've been really bogged down with real-life issues. I'm just starting summer from high school, but quite honestly I think it's more...

It's been a long time! But don't worry, this CJ isn't dead, I just got sidetracked and temporarily lost interest. But I'm back and I'll have to say this is my best city yet. Boasting a population well over 100,000, Elmore is an outlying suburb of the currently under construction capital, Beaumont. Located about 15 miles from Stark City, Elmore has a little of everything -- factories, shops, offices, sprawling neighborhoods, even some midrises too. Elmore encompasses what the Chancellor envisions Mitron to...

Welcome to Port Adams ! This is going to be the main port of the region. It's named after Henry Adams, an industrialist who financed much of the construction. Right now it’s not that big, but it’s going to become a huge shipping port for the country, don’t you worry. Perhaps we’ll revisit it when it’s grown larger? *wink wink, nudge nudge* But until then, enjoy this update! (And the little precursor to it) About those technical issues….well, I've realized that they aren't a big problem. I mean, if you...

Well, we have a little problem with this CJ. About a month ago, I made a change to a new terrain mod. This ended up causing every single one of my cities to CTD after about a minute of playing. So, I’ve been recreating them. So far, I just need to recreate Byner, Seager, Riverbrook, and Stark City. That should be done by mid-December, I hope, depending on how often I play. But my big question in this update is: Do you guys think I should start a new CJ with the new cities (I’ve actually changed them up...

We're finally here! After 6 1/2 updates, we've finally got a metropolis in Mitron! And today we're going to see it! It's not that tall yet, but it's pretty dense. A beautiful bird's eye view of the city. As you can see, downtown is located on an island. There are only a couple hi-rises, most of downtown is medium-rises, but it still manages to double the population of the suburbs. There are only 3 connections to the mainland, 2 avenue bridges, and the subway pops up to create a bridge, linking the island's...

Today we visit the largest city in Mitron! Boasting a population nearing 50,000, it has quickly exploded into the center of everything in Mitron. But, we won't be seeing much of that today. Instead, we'll be seeing the quieter, calmer side of Stark City. The suburbs. Most of the suburbs are griddy and planned out, but for the loss of some good looks you get functionality. Most of this area is middle class; the richer people have their own little community right on the water. As you can see, Victoria...

Welcome to the city of Riverbrook! Most of the people barely make enough money to support their families, and most people are rough, gruff factory workers, so don't pick a fight with anyone, or show off anything shiny. Also, some good news. East of Riverbrook, a new city has been developing....we'll see it soon enough. It's brought much more money to Mitron, as well as attracted people to move here and many businesses and corporations have decided to come to Mitron as well. So, the highway system is back...

Today we visit the city of Byner. Yes, city. The population is currently 19,000. This is the largest city in Mitron so far, and there's some cool stuff to see. Here's the CBD. As you can see it's quite large. A Tina's Grocery store has even been built. It's a chain of grocery stores from Folland, but it has spread to other countries in Euphemia. Right through the middle of town is Rt. 2 (E/W). It should become a very popular thoroughfare. Here you can see some sprawling suburbs. These surround the central...

Welcome to Tanguay! Can you guess what it is? No, it's not a tropical fruit.....Yes! It's a city!! What kind of city? A farm town!! Stop groaning already. I promise it's the last one for a while. Now look at the pics already! (Didn't realize I had the pause screen!) This is where MDOT began construction on HWY-1. They managed to build northward towards Seager, and a little south towards new lands, until they realized they were running out of funds. So they had to cut down. There was no overpass to be...

Welcome to Mooreville! This is the second settlement in Mitron. Located directly west of Hayward, this is more of an industrial rather than farm town. It was decided that the country would need to be self-sufficient as quickly as possible. So it was decided by the fledgling government (who had yet to have a proper place to govern from; everyone was huddled in one guy's mom's basement) that Mooreville would be dominantly industrial. This meant that there was everything from manufacturing of textiles & tires...

Today we visit the original settlement on Mitron, the twin islands, aka the city of Hayward. This is a very small town. What happened was the first people got settled down here, and then after that most left to new lands. Thus, this is a very small town. I'd explain more, but I'll let the pictures do the talking. Also, if you haven't looked at the edit I made on the first update, you'll be confused right now. Or maybe you never even looked at update 1 so you won't be confused. Either way, important...

This is going to be a CJ about my country, Mitron. Mitron is located on the planet Adonia and is an avid member of the USNW, or United Sovereign Nations of the World. It is an island nation located off the western coast of Euphemia. It was discovered in the 1600s and settled upon.. This is basically an American-stylized country, with a Washington state like climate. However, don't expect me to follow those guidelines exactly. I mean, it's my country and I'll do what I want with it! Anyways, let's get to...
