Is it possible to turn this commercial aircraft carrier into a functioning airport? (http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/file/Suzaku.zip) In previous attempts, it was found that as it is completely off coast, it wouldn't have a road connection. Becuase it doesn't have a road connection, it can't serve as a functioning airport. But modding can change things. - A mod that keeps an airport alive without road connections - Is it possible?

Well... I am a BATer, but not MODer. Anyway, it seems possible? But I have no idea how to.

@collgab That Lyra Ensembla thing is not as organised as SCJU or MoS at this moment. Just grab the registration card, fill in the details and post it here or Zanapolis thread to make it part of the story.

@HONG KONG Thanks!!! And yeah, just add some more props (cars parked in disorganized manner, some rubbish, crowd etc) and animations to polish the chaotic yet cozy Asian feel of the buildings, and should be perfect!

Ok, one more. Rather small, but still a hard-core Asian (Taiwanese) BAT. ZhongshanLu7, Dahua Hotel http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/file/ZhongshanLu7.zip - model file only. Someone needs to Lot and Mod.

Just to sum up what on earth is going on....

Intersteller companies forward! - There is actually a union of intersteller business cooperative scheme called "Lyra Ensembla" (more info) It is a union of companies that officially engage in intersteller business, and membership is limited to private sectors (nongovernmental) only. Also, it exists outside any political schemes like SCJU or MoS. Current member companies: Velacosma Associates(???????) -Arista 4 Jehavnid Corporation - Myon Tau Kinematik - Arista 4 Yarkozvezda???????????? -Arista 4 Suiso Renmei and Cathode Electric are waiting for approval. An easy registration for a great leap into the stars

Attention: Many pictures, especially animated GIF's, are viewed so many times that it is hitting hourly bandwidth quota of imageshack.us. If you can't see the pictures, please come back later - in times that few people would be seeing this thread.

All these buildings are designed to stretch into streets (just see a pic of streets of China and Taiwan, you will see what it means), but normal LOTing does not allow that to happen. What needs to be done is making the building a big prop. But this time, I get "a Lot must have a building" - I don't know how to remove buildings from a LOT. Since Meiyuan Dafangdien slightly exceeds 3x3, "big prop and no building" - this must be done to fit in 3x3.

Calling for some help by LOTers and MODers of HK/Asia BAT team! I am working on the expansion of previous Zhonghua Zutao. @HONG KONG - I am asking for a help in LOTing and MODing of this building, as I'm not good at them. You can release in your name, just with a phrase "SC4Model file by 2ch" http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/file/zhonghuazutaoExpansion1.zip This contains: texture toned-down version of Meiyuan Dafangdien (Plumflower Park Hotel) XiaodeLu21 from previous release - nightlighting error fixed New buildings - KunmingLu56 (CS$$) and KunmingLu91 (CO$$) Also AiguoLu73 Commercial Center (CS$$) at http://kamurai.sakura.ne.jp/editbbs/data/SC4/old/log2-1/1145398391638989/Aiguolu73.zip

@defcon pilot supertower BATs in this CJ comes from 1/3 STEX (like Altura condo), 1/3 Japanese (mostly the creation of Dareka, sky2222 is actually in STEX), and my own BATs (Velacosma HQ etc) concentrated in yuhisa.com @jacqulina Thanks for dropping in as usual! @Fox This is one of the dissatisfaction I always have about SimCity... All European, American traditional, and no Asian or futuristic. So, I fill the gap! I am now back on Zhonghua Zutao china BATs @Micah Yay! seems new approach on completely sunken highways and tunnels worked! @collgab Thanks for coming! And... in these days, I am seeing lots of influence by this CJ to others like your Pegasus galaxy. Getting quite interesting.... And lots mistakening the name when giving credit IT'S ZANAPOLIS not ZANOPOLIS and yuhisa.com often goes offline. Please make multiple tries. @Leech10 Zukish.... learning another language is hard Some people, especally employees of Lyra Ensembla and Tau Kinematik will pick up the language in Myon soon. @Cobb32118 And you are one of the people who made those supertall BATs! Altura Condo is one of my favourite! @zelgadis I've recently found that if you combine Evangelion and Ghost in the Shell, it becomes Akira (in terms of city layout and styles) As far as I know, I haven't seen an extensively animated CJ's on ST either... Btw, there would be a reply from Tau Kinematik or Wuxianjie about your trade offer! @Kippis05 Thanks! A CJ for entertainment is the key for story-based CJ's! @pepsi71ocean Ok, to make search easy, I just give you the names and some info of those buildings. Sky2222 by Dareka (Japanese site or STEX) sky6 by Dareka (Japanese site) Velacosma HQ by me (yuhisa.com) Altura condo by Cobb (STEX) Nephlon Arista Arximia by me (yuhisa.com, kind of in STEX) You can find more supertalls by linkartist on STEX @mattb325 That's the thing! Nearly all BATers were racing for the height and never getting into depth! @Fabiocb Thanks! Subterranean hangars are my new attempts. @jackel.22 Welcome to Zanapolis on Planet Arista 4! Suiso Renmei Hachigohki is desigened to withstand bombardments of highly energised cosmic particles, so a lightening strike is not an issue! It can @bourneid Thanks for you tip on animated CJ! But the thing is... I don't have that software. Anyway, hand animation is working. @6underground Thanks! Btw, where can I download your BATs @hamsterTK,Alkaola,simoplis_mayor (sorry for multiple replies) Thanks for popping in! @mightygoose I really want somebody who can do Asian and futuristic BATs... HK Asia BAT team is only doing generic skyscrapers at this moment... @GaBoR Yes! Animated gifs are the best for story-based CJ's! It's not about photoshopping skills. @usnaguy of course, some more BATs are coming! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A new spaceship, Xioh Ganda Cosmocruiser blasts off! A standard unit of the Royal Cosmoforce of Zanonean Kingdom. http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/c-board.cgi?cmd=one;no=52;id= http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/file/XiohGanda.zip

(Iftikar) Wow! This is such a big hole! (Vladimir Bogdanov, Captain of Yarkozvezda) Yeah, this is the Geofront. Do you want to take a picture of here? (Iftikar) Haha, no thank you. I'm not a sightseer here! hahaha (Makhmood) So, how have you been doing other than becoming the captain of the new ship? I haven't seen you for a long time! (Vladimir) Well....... my job getting better while private life becoming less stable? (Makhmood) Is that because of the war? (Vladimir) Unfortunately yes. Recent bangs and booms near Qinglongdao shocked nearly everybody in the city. We had to admit that major fighting could break out anywhere in this tiny city-state. (Makhmood) That must be quite stressful.... (Vladimir) But I heard, there was some conflict some time ago on Myon? (Makhmood) Actually there was, but it ended before affecting me. (Vladimir) I'm glad to hear that. The thing on my side is, becuase situations in Zanapolis is so volatile that even without Zanonean Republicans, things can go wrong at any time! (Makhmood) But ceasefire has been agreed with them,right? (Vladimir) That ironically rather made things worse! When we thought that a war with Zanonean Republicans is inevitable, there has been some sense of unity, but the inconsistency of ceasefire agreement with Carinangaya Covention is dividing people. So, what is going to hold us together? Anti-Zanonean Kingdom? No way. Things are falling apart! (Makhmood) Oh no... That is so bad... (Vladimir) Fortunately, I will be flying on Mesosphere platform from tomorrow. I will be safe 50km above here for a month. I think we are leaving around the same time. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but even if entire Zanapolis goes kaboom, I will still be alive! (Makhmood) Well,..... yeah, hahaha. (Vladimir) By the way, you are going back to Anacata system tomorrow, right? (Makhmood) Yes, we are. (Iftikar) Tau Kinematik is taking us back. (Vladimir) uh-ha. On that antimatter ship. (Iftikar) Antimatter!? (Vladimir) Did you know, Tau Kinematik is shipping 8g of antimatter to Myon every month. (Iftikar) So, we are flying with something we should never ever touch. (Vladimir) Hahaha, yes indeed! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dai Ganda Cosmocruiser flying into Zanapolis from Zanonean Kingdom---- (Reka Persei 2 border control) You are entering the Zanapolis airspace. I issue you a warning. You are unlawfully entering the airspace of Zanapolis. Turn back. (Captain, Dai Ganda) We are from Zanonean Republic! We are seeking an asylum! We have no intention to attack Zanapolis! (Reka Persei 2 border control) We cannot provide an asylum to armed personnels. If you wish to seek an asylum, please land outside Zanapolis, disarm yourself. Then, formally pass the immigration. (Captain, Dai Ganda) If we can do such thing, surely we've already... WAH! (Captain, Dai Ganda) Get on to SALs, shoot them down! (Reka Persei 2 border contorl) Dai Ganda, combats above populated area is not tolerated! (but why is the Royal Cosmoforce entering Zanapolis!!??) (Captain, Dai Ganda) I know! We are not meant to fight here! Contact Zanonean Royal Aeroforce! Hey, another one just below us!!! Charge railgun! (Crew 2, Dai Ganda) They are damn too fast!!! (Captain, Dai Ganda) Direction 30- minus 70, hostile target! Two active Kaabeforms identified! (Crew 2, Dai Ganda) CATCH ON!!!!!!!!!!! (Crew 2, Dai Ganda) We are a cosmounit by all. So handicapped against aerounit in atmosphere! (Captain, Dai Ganda) At all cost, we must deliver this to Carinangaya. We can't just go down here! (Captain, Dai Ganda) Zanapolis Border control, we are requesting an extraordinary measure! We are carrying 10 grams of antimatter! Repeating, we are carrying 10 grams of antimatter! If we are shot down, there is an imminent danger of matter-contact explosion!! (Reka Persei 2 border control) WHAT A...........!!!!!!!!!!!!! Understood!! Hold yourself aloft at all cost! Our air-support will soon arrive!!! ET33, scramble! Defend Zanonean Republican Dai Ganda Cosmocruiser fighting above Suisei Plantia! (ET-33 Aeroforce Base) ---- hey, did you hear that? That starcruiser has got 10g of antimatter! ----Holy shi...!!...t ..!!. what are we gonna do!? ----Just don't let them down. Support them by all means! (Reka Persei 2 border control) ET33, Reka persei 2 calling for a scramble. Position 3000-100. Mission type - defensive, Objective - Republican Dai Ganda on Suisei Plantia. (Area 5.1 ET-33 Mission Control) g...ggzzzz... This is ET33, Sujian Aar 1 to 9, scramble. Active Kaabeform 101 to 150, release....gzzz

Somebody is spamming the forum, since some of the Japanese SimCity players are so childish. The webmaster kamuraida-o is contacting Nifty to take some action, like blocking access from the offender or whatever...

(TV reporter) The antigovernment rebels of Nephelauxetic Lamellar Suburbia launched another major offensive further taking control of Huixingcheng. The leader of revolting Terraforce 4th Division, Kaina Yamauchi stated that the government must abide by Carinangaya Convention, like it has been doing in past 10 years. "People of Chinese and Japanese ethnic backgrounds, half or even three quarters of their relatives are in Zanonean Kingdom. Abandoning of the Convention means eternal separation and destruction of family for them," she added. Terraforce 2nd Division was directed against them, but all-out combat was narrowly averted as the government redirected it to Qinglongdao. The government officials say.......... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Xiaoying Bao, Director of Intersteller Logistics Unit) We need a way out. We must move some of our business to intersteller locations. It:s not just a matter of us Tau Kinematik!! (Executive, Tau Kinematik) Well, we already have our business in Myon, and Carpathia and Aerth are in consideration. (Xiaoying Bao) What I mean is, something of higher degree than that. (Executive, Tk) So, what do you exactly mean? (Xiaoying Bao) Recently, one of our workers stationed in Myon wrote a report, that greater business opportunities are expected from a group of nations out there, apparently called "SCJU." (Executive, Tk) I heard of it before, but..... isn't that a union of nations? We are just a private sector! to do that, we need to convince the government. (Xiaoying Bao) Indeed. I know that success rate would be quite low. But I give a try. (Executive, Tk) Well.... yeah, we won't be losing anything just for trying. We should do that. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++(6 hours)+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Xiaoying Bao) As we requested in our petition. We urge the government to consider SCJU as an option. (Internal Minister) We are sorry to inform that the decision by Zael04 was "no," and further discussion by our people also reached the conclusion of "no." (Xiaoying Bao) What....!? But, why!? (Internal Minister) Carinangaya Convention 3.4, Toward future reunification, Zanapolis will not be a member of any intersteller political schemes that is defined by either one or more of 1.collective security agreement 2.transfer of sovereign national authority 3.military alliance and so on. Already, because of the ceasefire agreement with Zanonean Republicans, some say that we are not meeting the expectations of the Convention. We must abide by the convention or otherwise, Zanapolis will completely break up. (Xiaoying Bao) So, officially, the government cannot affiliate to any united political schemes? (Internal Minister) True. Carinangaya Covention is the only hope for 7 million citizens who have got their families parted... Ministty of Foreign Affairs is on temporary shutdown anyway. The government can't do anything with the SCJU. (Xiaoying Bao) .... I understood. I try some other options. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Xiaoying Bao) As I thought, the government can't go against the convention. I think we must go for an alternatiave option. (Executive, Tk) There is an alternative? (Xiaoying Bao) Yes. The convention is effective for political bodies. We, private sectors are not obliged to follow. We can independently move. (Executive, Tk) What...!!! So, you mean we are leaving the government behind?. (Xiaoying Bao) Yes. But the law of Zanapolis allows such actions. Freedom of whatever. We will become the non-governmental Representative to the SCJU. (Executive, Tk) Well... that could potentially build a link with other SCJU nations while maintaining Carinangaya Convention, but do you think that is realistic? (Xiaoying Bao) I never heard of a case that private sector representing a nation. But we would be just a representative. If Zanapolis wants to become a full member, that is a different matter; only the government can do that. (Executive, Tk) But some SCJU nations are monarchy - and those kings and queens expect somebody from similar profile - like President, Prime Minister, or minimum some sort of aristocrat! (Xiaoying Bao) Our Prime Minister is cyberbrained and is a 20%-cyborg. Aristocracy - we've abolished it 600 years ago. The "person" of authority in Zanapolis is Zael04 supercomputer.They just can't apply their values to us. I'm sure! (Executive, Tk) But its equivalent to.... imagine, a town merchant dining with nobles. Those kings might feel offended or despised. (Xiaoying Bao) I am aware that can happen. But I trust, the leaders of SCJU nations are not that medieval-minded. (Executive, Tk) This is a completely uncharted territory...... Let's give a try. This will throw on them a fundamenal question about the definition of a nation - "what defines a nation?" If they rejects us, they mean that a nation must have a government as in traditional way. But if they accept us.......... (Xiaoying Bao) ....if they accepts us? (Executive, Tk) Then it implies that a government is not an essential entity in defining a nation, and anarchism as equally legitimate as a monarchy, democracy or republic. Man, it's going to be an extremely hard decision. (Xiaoying Bao) .... Things might be complicated than I think. I will coordinate with thr news agency Technet Infomatics. Their information coverage makes themselves worthy of representing Zanapolis there. (Executive, Tk) Ok. I give this plan a go. (Xiaoying Bao) Thank you. I will prepare for spacefaring to SCJU HQ. Where is it.... New Rhodesia of Planet Terra. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Executive, Tk) Good luck with the coming negotiations! (Xiaoying Bao) Thank you! I keep in heart that I am going to represent all of you! I will surely deliver this to SCJU senate! (Extraordinary SCJU representative unit, Technet Infomatics Inc) We will use all our knowledge and resources that our news reporters have gathered! (Executive, Tk) Let the stars shine on you. Bon Voyage! Itte rasshai!

I hope the planet will be friendly to me. (Iftikar) I am actually a bit worried about what is going on in Zanapolis. A Civil War? (Makhmood) Yeah... officially they say so, but people from Lyra Ensembla say it's not that bad, unless you step into neighboring Zanonean Kingdom (Iftikar) So, let's see. I can't wait to see the extratowers and geofronts of Zanapolis!

I'm a BATer, but not a LOTer or MODer. Isn't HK/Asia BAT team already running in this way? Somebody make a BAT model, hand over to somebody to lot and mod, and finally reach the STEX release under the name of "HK BAT team"

Housing estate? Yeah, Alicante city turning into another Hong Kong!
