I think I messed up with the codes somehow. I do that from time to time. I dont know how too fix it however  ()what(). I'll be working with Steven's Point soon; perhaps another 2 hrs of Steven's Point. My goal is to get it back to 10K in Population. Before I start Medium Density Zoning. That's when I most likely need to upgrade my main roads of Steven's Point to Avenues. I shall have in my next update (2) main avenues along with short ones.
I'm just waiting for thoses new modds that the people here been working on. I'm speaking of the New Widening Modd and TLA Modds. Those 2 Modds alone should (I Hope :D), solve my traffix problems $%Grinno$%. As I said in one of my post here. Makes me wonder where these sims get their Driver's License From? A Crackerjack Box?
:D $%Grinno$% ()stsfd().

Has u can see from the photos, I have a rapidly growing City. Soon it'll be time to create a 2nd city for my sims to travel too. My only ? is what type of city should my 2nd City Be? Steven's Point is Low Residental and Commerical and Medium Industrial ok. Just need some advice on what type of City Should I have that would compliment Steven's Point?

Howdie Again Mayors, I have more photos of Steven's Point. Now we have a population of 25K+. Also we have 2 new additions to Steven's Point. Major League Baseball Of Sim Nation has expanded to Steven's Point. Now the fans of Steven's Point Red Sox can root for their favorite team and listen to them on the Radio will will be added sometime today. I do have the funds to do so, but to find a place for the Radio Station is a question in itself. I
may well just place it next to the University. Or in between the University and Stadium since they are nearby.
I also have a new minor league stadium that was not photograph yesterday. Finally, I've added a new Large
Airport for sims to travel to and from Steven's Point By Air. Here are the new photos of Steven's Point.

Thanks Pat, Earlier today. I had to rebuild the Commerical and Industrial Sections Of Steven's Point. The Traffix project had become Atrocius. I also added a Highway to combact that problem. I was in the process of adding
a subway system when the game crashed on LOL. Have to do that again. I'm closing in On 30k now for population. The city itself just gave me the Deluxe Police Station and The Fire Plane. And I also added a Radio Station too the city. I plan to do more missions tomorrow. BTW, I'll be glad with the NWM and the other projects become available. I then can widen all my roads & avenues and yes even streets Of Steven's Point. Just Hope that will solve my traffix problems LOL. I'll have more photos of Steven's Point Soon ok. :)

Hi Guys, I'll have new photos of Steven's Point coming soon. I've recently got a new pc and had to start from scratch again :D $%Grinno$%. I have Steven's Point up and running now and just downloaded a few old lots provided by you awesome majors. I just got back from outdoors shoveling the porch with 13" inches of new fresh snow here in NH LOL. I'll have the new updates sometime this weekend knock on wood lol.

sorry for long delay of getting Steven's Point back-up. So without further due. Here's is a visual tour of my city with a population over 28,000 sim. I've created the ocean and small lake you see on this photo. I had to raise taxes to 9.o+ for residental and 9.5 and 10s for commerical and industrial districts. Cause I was seeing mansions again in low residental. May have to raise taxes again if I continue to see mansion in low residental districts. I currently have High Rise set at 17.0 may bring that upto 20.0 if I need lol.

As you can see, the population is currently set just over 27,000. when I took the photo of Steven's Point. It tipped over 28,000. I making money right now so. I may just has well give my sim a tax break of .2% drop in taxes. If continues. has you can see, my monthly income is 2-1 ratio meaning I'm earning close to $40k mostly thanks to the coastal casaino which earns me $25k monthly. I decided it was a good idea to put a
police station neabry it. The Casiano is just off the photo here at the lower left where the small beach is. I also plan on adding a highway once I hit
the $1 million mark. With Steven's Point over 25k in sims. I've been pondering on adding a new city for Steven's Point. I'll see how well I do with that one. And I see I have some work to do $%Grinno$%. Forgot to connect to 2 avenues I just added :D. Even we good mayors make booboos :D $%Grinno$%.

Looking real good here Starman!!!  I want more.... just joking take your time bud...

Don't forget the SC4D Podcast is back and live on Saturdays @ 12 noon CST!! -- The Podcast soon to Return Here Linkie

Starmanw402007

Since my post, I had to make major realignments of the Residental. So I could add the Highway you see there. I may have to do that again by putting the Low Residental near the edge of the screen. And make sure I have everything connected LOL. I'll also try and add another Highway to my growing city has well. The first highway I have goes from East To West crossing the channel I just made with the new God Mode tool in Mayor Mode. that made it much easier to add some spice to my city. my next Highway will go south to north. With More avenues. I cant wait for all the
new modds for highways to come out. They will bring a whole new demisions to my city. I'll be able to have 6-10 lane avenues. I'm also aware that
there could be more accidents with wider avenues LOL. I sometimes ask myself where do these sims get their driver's license from? A crackerjack
box :D $%Grinno$%. Of Course, it doesnt help when u have 41,000 sims in the city too. Yesterday, I went over 41K. I'll wait until I reach 50k to
build my next city. Which could well be a new region itself Maxiston. I'll post that in my orginal city maxiston thread ok. :)

Your city is looking very good! And some great updates there! :thumbsup:

Starmanw402007

Thanks bat, your city is looking great too. I finally get this city up and growing. I'm getting set to begin my second city. Any Suggestions on how I should build my 2nd City? Also, as soon as I upgrade my final Low Residental to Medium. I'll begin my next city. I hope to have all 4 Residental Sections loooking like NY City LOL. It'll look like NY City when I finally add the statue of liberity. By then I should have 100,000k in Steven's Point.

I can fix all the congested roads with wider avenues LOL. Until then, I'll have to wait like the other mayors do. So chat with you later about my City. :)

Here's the latest photo of Steven's Point. Steven's Point Region has grown by 2 Cities now. Here's the list of those cities in Steven's Point Region and Steven's Point it's capital is included.

The Cities Of Steven's Point Regions includes the following:

Steven's Point: 40,000k (had to realign everything so I can added a cloverleaf interchange highway in the middle of Steven's Point)
Caldorre........:   5,000 strong lol.

Caldorre is my most recent city build. How I got the name of Caldorre is this. The name Caldorre comes from a space game I use to play Called
Sentinel Worlds I. I wonder if there's anyone here that remembers Senitel Worlds I. Where you had to findout the source of the raids on cargos.
The 3 Systems in Sentinel Worlds I were; Caldorre, Ceyjavik and Norjeann. I plan on using these as cities for Steven's Point. So when I'm finally
completed with Steven's Point, Steven's Point will have grown to 5 Cities. If I do things right the first time :D $%Grinno$%. So here's the photo
of Caldorre, Steven's Points Newest Neighbor. :)

I think you have started something here which could turn out to be pretty good. 
But......I have a few suggestions.  Please go back and fix your other pictures as they are no longer showing up. 
Also remember to change your pics to Jpeg as png take long to load for some people.  This will turn some peope off your MD and they will not make replies and even stop coming.
Last thing, turn off that info. bar, it is very distracting to your pictures.

I hope you take this as helpful critiquing and I'll see you around my friend.

Robin  ;)
Call me Robin, please.

Starmanw402007

rooker1, I've just recently created a slideshow at photobucket, Yep I have two places to upload photos now LOL. Photobuck and Imageshack. My question is this, how do I get the slideshow to work correctly on a forum like this? I know how to put photos and stuff like that on here. But I'm
trying to figure out how to get a slideshow on this site in this forum(MD). I'll take your advice when I return to the city ok and thanks for your suggestion. :)
