This next entry is the town of Redwater which lies to the west of Starmantle and south of Westgate. It's a relatively small town with lots of coastline. It borders the Sea of Fallen Stars on the Northwest shore, runs along the Short Arm Lake and the Lake of the Long Arm. Aerial Shot #1... Short Arm Lake encompasses most of this shot with the Sea of Fallen Stars peaking at you to the Northwest... The thin strip of land known as the Lonely Road surrounded by the Short Arm Lake to the north and the Lake of the Long Arm to the south... The Lonely Road again with the Gulthmere Mountains making an appearance to the South... Lonely Road up close... Lonely Road south end... High wealth residentials along the Short Arm Lake... Lake of the Long Arm shoreline near Starmantle... Just to the north the previous shot is the commercial/ industrial areas bordering Starmantle... Redwater's main connections to Starmantle and access to the Westgate peninsula... Across the bridge to downtown Redwater... Downtown Redwater and the Redwater Clock Tower... Leaving downtown and to the west and north are highway and rail options for travel to Westgate... Northern Redwater with it's border to Westgate...

Thank you people, much appreciated!

Thanks, I appreciate the input. For the river I terraformed using the canyon tool, not sure why I chose to do that, and I agree about the coasts. I used the "shore pines" but in some areas I think I did put them too close to the waterline.

Holy smokes, your CJ is very, very impressive... makes me want to go on vacation there minus the fires ;)

Bordering the city of Starmantle is the town of East Starmantle. This town is mostly low density residential developments with a small downtown and park. The town ends at the mouth of the East River, no development is planned to the east of the river as STEX trolls live in the nearby forest and mountains... Aerial shot of East Starmantle... The mountains and forest where the trolls are lurking... Residences bordering Starmantle... Utilities that keep East Starmantle clean and powered... Residentials near the utilities... Residential neighborhoods in the central area of East Starmantle... Quaint little downtown... City Hall and downtown up close... Downtown Park... The mouth of the East River...

Yeah I'm using the NAM and I re-installed it so I could have the diagonal streets but it didn't work :(

Haha, thanks, I've been a total "lurker" here on Simtropolis for a few years and I've finally decided to share something. My comp freezes every single time I try to BAT something so I'm going to try my best on some CJs.

The Southern suburbs of Starmantle are a little nicer than the Eastern ones, with a canal system running from the forest areas all the way to downtown and eventually dumping into the Sea of Fallen Stars. Southern suburbs typical neighborhood... Starmantle South Prep School and surrounding neighborhood... Starmantle Country Club Aerial view looking south towards the suburbs and Gulthmere Mountains and Forest Second aerial view looking south...

Next up we have a few pics of the Eastern Suburbs, high/ medium wealth residential communities with up-turned noses... Even rich kids TP trees in Starmantle. Another Eastern Suburban neighborhood. Typical culdesac street in the Eastern suburbs.

Do you have seaports in the city? You can only have one seaport controller, I suggest Pegasus's one. If you have two seaport controllers then the game will crash when you try and load a city, it happened to me b/c I had the Pegasus controller and I think one from Japan (couldn't really tell b/c I don't speak Japanese), but removing the other controller and only having one fixed it for me. Hope that helps...

It is definitely the installed mod... I know because it does the same thing to me and it's the only mod I have ever downloaded that has anything to do with money. I actually like it that way, so I never have to fret over money. I end up just setting all my taxes at like 0.1% I've had the game for so long I play it to make picturesque cities, not for the challenge anymore.
