Completely done......good question. At this rate a year. The little update thats in that circle probably took 5 to 10 hrs alone and thats just the roads parks and schools. Things I need to figure out to finish this.... -Demand levels..Edmonton is Mainly houses for sqaure after square...then Industry in massive areas. How will this work in SC4 -Specialty buildings like... -Outdoor Rinks -Community Halls -Large Industrial Buildings -Realistic Playgrounds -Landmarks -Skyscrapers -Stripmalls Every named store.... McD's etc. -many many more (I dont like a ton of add on lots) -For all those squares/cities.... Edmonton as a whole doesnt have hospitals in all of those squares or fire/police coverage.....Do I make up police stations etc..? -WHat about the LRT and CN rail....Both running diagonal....and with the subway going under dround how do I blend a ground rail and subway. I dont want a raised rail. SO Should I use just one rail to act as both? -Not every Sqaure has a power plant water or garbage...do I cheat use mods? -Will city after city/square of housing develope with next to no relative jobs in that area. (In SC to commute in one square to the next or so is measured in hours - when in real life you can drive threw Edmonton to a job in an hour) -Small roads curve they dont look right zig zagging.... -What if the schools in there proper spots dont cover all areas. -I play SC without altering mods...so do I use them just to make this city work? -Main question is..when I hit the go botton and let time roll will the city develope? How do I get around this. For other questions I'm not zipping the city every time I do an update to give out. Plus I would have to include all used lots. The roads and scale is nearly exact in 98% of the map with a few exceptions that a hard to get around using SC. But for every building which would measure in the 100's of thousands how do I get everything to an exact look. Especialy the look of A shoppingmall or commercial strip that normaly would stand out in a nieghborhood.....WHere do I draw the line. When the roads begin to finsh and I answer some of these questions then I will start placing buildings to gain the look. But I dont wont 300 Bat lots in my game...And when I tried the plop mod I lost an entire region.....so now I think of ways to answer these questions....these are just a few off of the top of my head. An ideas please tell lol....

This is a new update of the Westmount area and St. Alberta Trail area. With many angled side streets it took some time to do this.....aswell with groat road which is in a valley that comes up from the river plus having bridges above and interchanges I had to redo a few things.

Thanks again for the replies and patients...When all is said and done this region will be up for download. A blank copy is downloadable now threw my MSN account newjersey73@hotmail.com . As always I work on it a week straight then take a few weeks off. I should get things rolling again soon. With work, being sick, having a sick baby, the wife going back to work and her taking night school and running a house I havent been playing much SC lately. More roads to come. I'm also looking for Edmonton Skyscrpaers or other landmarks to be made. I am offering small cash rewards for most any building.

I visit it rarely. I would stick to the exams. Great idea the site.....I like it just dont go to it daily.

LOL......... .......Sherbrooke (nice win) Pepe' Lemieux where were you?

A nice undefeated streak and 5 allstars. Looking forward to the playoffs.

.500 Hockey....Things are looking good.

Well after a bad week 2 wins. 1 game below .500 in this conference isn't bad. 12 games to go.

4-3 in OT......pleased......Over paid bastards. I want big wins and streaks. Oh well my next game is a forsure win. Mighty Frogs lol and Pepi Lemieux.

I didnt know Tigers eat MightyFrogs?

If anyone is looking to make a trade please PM me an offer. With the players I have I shouldnt be 1-3. As the GM I'm looking for a small change or 2.

Skip the season wtf. I may have not posted lately but I view nearly every day. Maybe people arent posting much....but the season is very early. From the amount of views it seems people are checking in alot. And if one or two members dont post alot give there spot up for a new team next year. Also if your busy for the week sim the weeks games all in one night and release the results each day to save yourself time. Also having to DL the results sucks.....just going to equal less views.

My transaction for April 21st will be.... Releasing S.Mellanby to waivers Signing T.Amonte from waivers

My Transaction for April 20th will be.... Releasing D-Bonni to waivers Signing D-Wienrich from waivers

Wow I thaught Vetrans would include good players. I feel like I'm at the beach and I found some old washed up hockey equipment. Recchi should be good. And Brodeur can carry my team to a championship. SOOO! many top players in the NHL are missing!!?? I don't get it~!

Enough with the jokes this is a serious matter and question. The answer of this paradox is.... 73

Your right they are one way. But I wanted to use double width bridges more for the look. As you can see on either side of the brodges all roads are acurate and one way. Lets see you give it a go. Maybe you have a sollution lol. Also The Bridges are at angles.....infact alot of roads are at slight long angles and nearly impossible to emulate. The east side of Downtown is such. I have no idea how to do those roads with out them looking horrible. Updates will tell how close I came.

-Downtown Update- While Mountain Biking today I noticed just a few sudelties I wanted to change near the Leg. I have a few more slight fixes to the area but here is the look so far. Also the Waterdale area and Telus Field. And an updated Road Map of the city. There wont be any pics in here but I have finished the roads all the way up to Kingsway. On the map you can really see the look coming together and the accuracy Hope you enjoy more to come....
