Its a very good idea... I always thought the Capitol was small in Game... i've never acctually relised why untill now. I doubt you would need to Re-Bat the whole thing however... just BAT the HoR and the Senate and relot the origial Maxis Capitol to include them. Its still quite a project in itself however... getting the Maxis attenion-to-detail down to a tee will take one hell of a talented Batter.

Finished this after about 10 hours for my CJ... the first usful thing i've batted (A Nuclear Plant) Clicky for fullview This is only a Draft Render, and there are a few minor Screw ups in this Render that i've fixed in the finished product... Clicky again

Oh wow, indeed, Welcome Back! I can only imagine that this will be highly antisipated, plus, I know what you mean about the Disks, my RH disk is at breaking point so i'm using an MDS file instead. Wish you luck with this mod... i'm sure all the modding stuff will come back to you

I think first of all, they should really check the other Under-Truss bridges across the US from the same Era (Late 60's, Early 70's) because no doubt they'll be showing the same amount of wear as the one in Minneapolis. Traffic and pedestrians alone cannot cause a bridge to collapse, i mean, thats what it was built for... the bridge was down to one lane so it would have had no more cars on it than it would have in the 70's or 80's, plus, I can imagine it had been strengthened since its construction to cope with the ever increasing amounts of traffic in the City... and if not... well, heads will roll.

Whoa... looking over at the other side of that pic you can see a car clinging on for dear life... who ever was driving that was extremely lucky.

Wow... this is on Wiki already http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-35W_Bridge Judging by Hotdogs pic solely... the bridge that collapsed looks quite flimsy, the griders look very thin. Apparently there was reports of 'Stress Fractures' appearing in the girders over a Year ago, but the last time it was properly inspected was 2004.

Heh, nice find. Think i'm only gonna get one good one out of the Site its self but the little Clipart Graphics will be handy in Photoshop

Saw it on TV just now, Sky News has just handed all coverage over to Fox... seems its collapsed onto a Railway too, already one person confirmed dead... can't imagine that being the only one.

lol... that'll make Glenni nervous Awesome CJ btw, its a great read

Bet it still take's 5 hours to download anything via Steam...

Think I feel sorry for those Farmers... no Tractors for those hills... bummer eh? What would they use instead to pull a plough... some kind of giant Aardvark? lol... i'd like to see that... Anyway, great update... the P.R.S is already building a Monkey Power Statue in its honor!

OLD UPDATE - SAKHALIYAN CAPITIAL NO LONGER LOOKS AS EAST-GERMAN AS THIS... thankfully. - El Burro [15 March 08] UPDATE 1.2 - Collection of Pics Im going away for the weekend so I thought I'd leave you with some images of random places in Khabarovsk. No running commentary from the 'Evil Borat' (Commissar Makomov)in this update... just images... Enjoy your weekend, i'll see you on Monday

I knew that would happen!! You know, the first word I tried in Russian was 'Welcome', but it was far too big! Thats why I tried 'Greetings' instead I do like to please the native Russian speakers here in a bold attempt to seem less ignorant... although, that said... screwing it up all the time makes me seem more ignorant, lol.

Pnorrell - Its a great idea, and i'm glad you mentioned that because... i've already do it, lol. I made a sign for Glenni after the initial Khabarovsk one, and then a Generic sign that simply says - Should be coming your way soon And don't worry about the spelling of 'Khabarovsk' on the sign... I know about it.... i was too lazy to try and decipher the Cryllic... even though its pretty simple-

I'm pretty much lost for words... this is one hell of a beautiful CJ! You've captuered the Sci-Fi genre perfectly! It's amazing how much SC4 can acheive with all these amazing BAT's and lots... its no longer simply a city builder... its a World Creator! I'll definitely be back for more...

The past few days have been quite interesting. In order to take our CJ's up a notch in realism , me and Glenni have been working closely making various 'Russian' prop and Bats because, to be honest, there isn't much out there. Now, Glenni as you already know, is one of the BlaM batting heroes, so you can imagine the quality of the stuff he's creating. Me, however, i'm just starting out... i've been slowly learning the BAT and 3DsMax over the past for months (well, I got 3Ds last week but it aint much different). I'm only at liberty to show you the stuff i've made/lotted.. its not much but its progress - Those of you who played STALKER or who acctually live in Russia, Ukraine or pretty much any Bloc country, will know that Communist Villages are quite... well... crap. Never too far away from some kind of massive Factory or rusty line of Fuel Tanks. A 3 Barreled Tank? Why? Well... why not? This is just a statue... nothing major. Looks Funky, lol. COOLING TOWERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!! Oh... your all here... good. Simple, but useful in Industrialized countries. However... due to a rendering problem, i'm gonna have to re-do these... there seems to be a hole in the side of them EVERY Russian City has one of these... I think... a massive Concrete welcome sign. Welcomes have never been so hostile! ^That ones my Party piece Ah, well...its not much but it something. I'm working my butt off trying to make some decent lots... we should have something soon, fingers crossed Why the HELL do I have 7 Fingers?... ... oh... Siberia... 26.07.07 Nardo69 - Yep, East Berlin seems a close to Russia as I can get at the moment... but i'm working on it... plenty of Custom low wealth lots should do the trick. Giligone - The transport system is uniquely Sakhaliyan (They tend to skip the design process and just build whatever comes to their mind). Glad you enjoyed it... it should get more realistic with age Koekie01 - The City Hall is one of NOB's creations... http://tokitoko.hp.infoseek.co.jp/lot_landmark.htm ... I'd give you a direct link to the download, but theres a few more awesome BAT's on that page you might want
