I've waited 48hrs so I guess it's alright to double post.

Hi Guys,
Welcome to update 10. As I said in the last update, if you want to go the first 8 updates, use one of the alternative links in the introduction.


I have been busy as of late with Easter tests but I have Short update for you! This is Jameson County Outlet Mall. It is a discount mall located 20 miles out of Glen Heights on the N67 just beside the Jameson River. The mall is used by the many consumers of Glen Heights and some who travel all the way from Harland City. It includes stores such as The Home Depot and Wal Mart as well as a 12 screen cinema.

All bats are by Heblem which are all available on the Simtropolis Exchange.

This is a mosaic of the whole Mall.

Love your junction! very well done, and I thank you for using my BATs aswell   :thumbsup:

Cant wait what you have prepared for us...
My guess... maybe the airport...  ;D

Heblem: Correct! That wasn't too hard. I hope you enjoy this update!


Welcome to Update 11. This update is focused on Jameson County International Airport. Jameson County International Airport (JC) is the primary airport of Newland. It is 25 miles north-west of Harland City on the main N10 and N67. The N10 terminates there, as it is the main route from Harland City to the Airport. It is in close proximity to the Jameson County Outlet mall which was showcased in the last update and is home to 3 hotels, The Marriot(Simgoober), Raddison SAS (Glenni)and the Double tree Hotel(also Simgoober). It has only one terminal and runway at present, although there has been campaigning for a second terminal and runway. The proect is only in the planning stages though and funding from the Newlandian Government has not yet been allocated. The Airport is also one of Aer Lingus's bases.

Without further a due, I give you Jameson county Int. Airport!

This is a picture of the main Enrance to Teminal 1. It includes express and local lanes i.e lanes directly to the terminal and lanes to services e.e car parks, hotles, petrol stations. This is the terminus of the Main N10 route. Also visible is the Raddison SAS Hotel  and the main bus Terminal in the Airport.

Your airport is nice :thumbsup:

Guillaume :thumbsup:

Fantastic airport terminal! Although there are 747s only (which is in fact a bit unrealistic), I really like the airport terminal. Especially the complicated departure and arrival lanes kept my eyes! Keep it up!

Nifty airport , you built there!

Nice airport! I like how you use elevated OWRs to simulate the double-decker roads that are so familiar at various airports. Perhaps, though, you could use less brightness in your pictures.

Keep it up!

Nice work on the airport. I am glad to see your work here as well.  &apls

Fantastic work on the airport.
In the last picture before the mosic, there is a spot where it looks like there is three levels of road, great work.  Underground, ground level and raised.

Hi Guys,
Welcome to another teaser. I have been working on this small city, Barrenstown for the past week, while doing my other project (yet to be revealed). This is a shot of Charing Island. It is a shoppers paradaise with a host of high street shops. I hope you enjoy it. Please tell me what you think of the brightness editing. I haven't yet mastered it, so I'm curios as to what you think of it.

It's very nice, but the effect is not as nice as the pic :D. I explain: there's too much blue, and it's not very good ;)

Guillaume :thumbsup:

Sciurus: Thanks. The next time I do a night shot, I'll make sure there is less blue.



Hi guys and welcome to update 12 of Newland. For this update, I will be focusing on Jameson County Int. Airport Terminal 2 instead of my planned showcase of barrenstown and Charing Island. I wasn't happy with showing you an unfinished city so I thought that the new Terminal would be a better choice.

Terminal 2 was built to aleviate the constant congestion of Terminal 1 which was not built to accomodate the rate of growth in the developing cities and towns of East Newland. Terminal 2 has 11 gates for departures and arrivals. It has a large terminal building and various services. It has 1 bus terminal, and a rail hub with 6 platforms fir HSR and bullet rail transit. There are also 9,000 parking spaces for both long-term and short-term. Over-al the terminal ahs a capacity of 58,000 commuters a day. A new runway was also constructed as well as additional taxiways and some minor improvements to faults with Terminal 1's design.

Without further a due, I give you Terminal 2!

This is a mosaic of The whole airport.

Welcome to Update 13 of Newland. I hope you like my new Banner. For this update, I'm going to finish up the developments at Jameson County International Airport. No, it's not a new terminal, It's an expansion of Terminal 1 to the south. This new expansion is primarily designed to accomodate the various short-haul flights that come in and out of the airport each day. The new building consists of 7 termianl gates, adding to the 16 existing gates, which cater primarily for Beoing 747s. With the new termnal expansion, an underground complex full of 3,000 parking spaces, a new bus terminal for commuters and it uses the existing BTM station. It connects to the main Terminal 1 building via a short walkway.
This will be the last installment in the CJ related to airports. I will get back to city showcasing then.

Here goes:
This is the entrance to the underground complex which consists of a bus terminal, parking spaces and various commercial units.

The N67 has been re-aligned so many times since the construction of Terminal 1. It was completely re-alligned with the construction of that terminal and had to go under the first runway, then with the construction of terminal 2, It was again re-alligned to go under the new runway and some bad bends were taken out. Then, It was re-alligned to accomodate the construction and finally it was widened to avenue standard for the increased amount of commuters to the new terminal building.

The old Allignment of the N67

Here is a picture of a reconstructed interchange just south of Terminal 1 on the N10 It links Terminal 1 North to Terminal 1 South(Terminal 3) via the N67. The interchange used to be a grade-separated junction with 2 way roads but was recently upgraded to avenue standard for Terminal 3.

I know I haven't got much new stuff for you in this update, butIf you've been viewing my blog (http://blogs.simtropolis.com/rainydayspage) or the forum version of this CJ, you will have known that I am busy with various other projects as well as School.

Well nonetheless, I do have a short update for you of Barrenstown Waterfront in the night. I have made little progress since I last showed you it in a teaser but I have expanded it to the south and some to the west, which I will show in a future update.

Welcome to Update 15 odf Newland. For this update I am going to be showcasing an interchange trhat I made last night. It is a three-level roundabout interchange between a MHW and an RHW. The interchange is part of  a city called Maidenhead which is yet to be developed but will be soon. The mosaic/montage is rahter big so I have a thumbnail link for you instead.

Enjoy! (Zoom in to see the bigger picture)

Thats all for now. More to come later

You did an excellent job here Darraghf. You did great with the terminal3 placement, the finishing touch for your already great airport.
I also like the waterfront picture alot, and am looking forward to the update featuring that part of Barrenstown.

It's extremly beautiful, and very very realistic &apls

Replies to come later

Hi Guys and welcome to yet another update to Newland. I know I haven't been around lately, but I have been very busy with school and other projects including the Ultimate Guide to SC4, which I have abandoned because I was too busy and simply couldn't find time to do it.(More infoavailable on my blog, link in sig). Wellanyways, I am finally on my holidays so now I can concentrate on this CJ a little bit more.

This update is going to be based on a new city tile, Amistad. Amistad is a new city  in Newland. It is a planned settlement which has not been developed yet. In this update, I am going to introduce you to the first aspect of development, Transport. The transport system in Amistad will consist mainly of road, rail and bullet rail as well as bus further down the line. I do tend to ramble on here so feel free to just skip this and look at the pictures as I usually do.

---

The main type of transport, road. The motorway routes in Amistad are the M1 and the M2. The M1 is the primary route which will go through the city centre and the M2 terminates onto the M1 via a trumpet interchange. The plan for this city is to allow motorway users to get to the city centre quickly and easily as well as getting to other mototways just as quickly and easily. This is achieved by planning ahead. The M1 has two interchanges of a high standard to access the city centre. The M2 can easily access those interchanges and can get around quickly. You will be able to see this in the pictures.


The main interchange between the M1 and M2 is completely freeflow and interchanges into the city centre are limited and are of a high quality so as to limit the amount of backups that can occur.
I think that that image is a bit bare though, don't you? What about a bit of traffic?

I dunno. It still doesn't look right. I know, how about some trees, that will fill the place up. Yeah

Yeah that looks a lot better.

Here's a shot of the whole city as it currently stands.

Stay tuned if you want to see more developments. Please subscribe and leave your comments.

All the best,

Hi guys and welcome to yet another update of Newland. In this update, I will be concentrating on the newly built CBD of Amistad. The CBD is a wash with highrises, green areas as well as a vast glr network which twists and turns in and out of the many alleyways. I won't go on anymore so, here you go. I give you..... Amistad

Some traffic building up in the moring rush outsite the Aviva building.

The Fischer building, a department store just outside the CBD. It is a protected structure and doesn't really blend in with the rest of the modern city.

This is a plaza between the main BTM station and one of many glr stations. This plaza can be full of people coming in from the surounding residential areas on the bullet train and trensferring themselves onto the glr to get to their jobs in the city centre

Farren Park, one of the many green areas in the city. It makes the city more than just a concrete heaven.

I just love this car park. It looks amazing in the night time surrounded by the many highrises.

And finally one of the main rail station on a rainy day. What do you think of the image editing in it? I'm eager to find out.

All the best,

I'm noticing that you have LHD, like all civilised countries where we spell civilised with no Z which is pronounced "zed", and you also have the NAM onramps featuring oneway straight-ons. I have these also (in fact I think I have the UK/Ireland version of the game) but mine don't work, the cars cannot access it at all.

Excellent pictures too. An amazing Diary. I especially like the "too dark" night shot.

Do you mean the RHW onramps?

No, I mean the Maxis Highway NAM oneway road onramp, the single sided parallel onramp. I was told that a special controller would be needed, but I havent received word of it's creation as yet.

joelyboy911: Oh I see what you mean. Maybe you should take it up with one of the developers in the NAM, like Dedgren. It might be something to do with the paths in the left hand version in the NAM. That problem happened to me too. Before you ask anyone, you should try to download NAM essentials: http://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=850 (http://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=850). It is used for small releases and bugfixes. If that doesn't fix it, contact someone who is a part of the NAM team and I'm sure they'll help you on the matter.

Cheers. That'll probably fix it.

I'll say again: this is a great CJ/MD I am in awe of your M1/M2 Interchange.

I have some bad news for you guys as well as some good news.

I'll give you the bad news first.
I'm ending this CJ. Newland has had a short run of 6 months, but I feel that it hasn't grown enough here. I have gained a lot of experience from this CJ and that experience  will help me a ot when I make a new CJ.

The Good News:
The good news is that this does not mean the end of City Journaling for me. I will be back shortly with a new CJ.

I would appreciate it if a moderator or an administrator would lock this thread and move it to inactive MDs.

Thank you for your support of this CJ. Without it, it would not have survived.

-Wishing you the best,
Darraghf

What a pity! While I´m creating a new MD, you are closing your!
I look forward to your next in MD!
