You have some awesome interchanges! If you threw some trees into those gorges, you would have something really special! Great entry

I agree with K50 some more trees around those valleys would look better. also for the highway when it crosses over that local highway, the local highway would look better as RHW or maybe even avenue. Also your interchanges are great.
Keep up the good work

@ K50: Thanks a lot! I'll definately get round to adding trees, and even putting some automata on the roads
@ mayorm: Thanks a lot! I would change the local highway to RHW, but the underbridge piece is Maxis Highway only. Thanks for looking
Today's update is just a little video to keep things going...
A little drive on a rural road.. filmed with a lagging recorder. I really need to remember to speed up the recording rate...
So.. I hope that's enough until the next proper update... School has just taken over.

Today's update was originally meant to be an update but a CTD stopped it. Now, it's just a night shot of the main city in Hayder. The CBD is unfinished.

Sorry that it's only one picture. I hope to post more soon...

Nice job!
What I meant by grainy is like around the edges of buildings and roads it looks pixelated a little bit
your new one looks much better though

looks nice, although it does look like there is a need for some more palm trees considering the amount of sand that is shown

@ yoda87: Thanks for looking! I forgot to add the palm trees, thanks for pointing that out
SimWorld has had an unusual weather pattern... many areas of the planet are seeing severe storms and bad weather.
Construction has been stopped in many places...


Cities look bleak and dreary..

... and many workers are dreading the journey home...


Even the driest cities are affected...

Night time skylines are ruined..

The pavements are empty but the roads are full...

... and the highways are full with cautious drivers

But of course, not all of SimWorld is affected...

Let's hope you're one of the lucky ones...
Thanks,

It's been a while, but it's time for the next update in this random CJ. It's called 'City Island', and it is about a city on an island. Today is also my birthday, and it's a chance I've had to finally update this CJ, which I have had the pictures available for a while but I just haven't had time to create the actual update.

We'll kick today's update off with a shot of some nice towers overlooking the newly built and unopened Airport Highway. The towers also have a great view of the seaport which is nearby.

And, here's the port that the towers get a great view of. This port is expanding by the minute.

The port is also dangerous for ships, with shallow waters and pebbles. Lots of pebbles.

Moving inland, we find an old mine that hasn't been used for 200 years. The minerals under the estuary in which the island is were a major trade for the early city.

New and old bridges cross the tramway. The trams first arrived in the city just under 200 years ago. Back then, goods were transported from the mines to the port.

The football pitch at night. The multi-storey carparks are pretty much empty, and the football pitch is closed until the season restarts in late August.

The Old Town is rather quiet at night, with only three cars driving down the normally packed streets.

The marketplace which was built in the late 1500s is still a busy place today, holding markets every Saturday.

This is one of the oldest parts of the tramline. It now follows an embankment above the airport carpark.

And.. the final picture of today's boring update. The airport was decorated as part of it's 25th anniversary last year, and a new flower garden was erected.
I might have a chance to create a summer-special update, but with work for the RTMT on the top of my list, it is slightly unlikely.
Thanks,
Sam =)
