Welcome to Fairbanks, SC4D Version! This is really more of an experiment for me than anything else, so I really can't say if I'm going to maintain this journal, or stick with my journal on Simtropolis. I eventually want to get all of the pictures from the Simtropolis journal up here, but I don't want to overload the first page to the point that no one can load anything! So help me get to page 2 and 3 so I can finish uploading!  I try to update at least weekly, but please don't be alarmed if I go several weeks without updating. The journal isn't dead, I'm just busy!

I remember when I tried to move Qaddro here from ST. It was on page 15 then and I tried to post most of the pics to Devotion and combine previous updates but then first and second page loaded so slowly and I didn't receive comments and it became very boring so I ditched Qaddro.

You could continue here where you left at that other place and post a link to your CJ and all who are interested can go and watch. If your CJ is succesful at other forums it will be success here too and you can start "fresh" here by posting latest updates.

Ah, glad to see this here! Now I can at last get up-to-date and stay up-to-date with Fairbanks and the events in it, and also, as those events unfold! :m:

Welcome to the 'hood! I trust your stay will be a good one. ;)

Give me a minute or three as I take this all in!  ()stsfd()

Glad to see you've moved to SC4D, Tim! ;D

I was overwhelmed by the amount of initial images...it covers pretty much everything; CDB, airport, industry. :P I really like the zoomed out shot of the downtown with the lush suburbs sprawling out around it.

Can't wait for more. $%Grinno$%

The pictures are good and it looks like an interesting place...but no story?

I hope these great pictures get some accompanying text soon.

What a super way to start an MD.  Soooooo many pictures.  I see alot of very interesting things you have done. 
A few things, 
I'm not very fond of the way you did the seawalls in the first couple of pictures.  It just seems to me to be a bit off.  The very irregular shape makes it look.....not so right.  Not sure what it is exactly.  Just my opinion, I guess.   Maybe if some of the walls were a little straighter.
The over all transit networks look very good, but I'm not too sure about how close the rail line is to the residential housing area.  Maybe an extra tile on either side just to space it out a little, might look better.  Although the houses in this area look fantastic.  Nice choice.
The airport looks great.  I have nothing to say about this, except great job.

Where did you get that Hospital in picture six?

For sure, I'll be watching for this next update.

Bengt: It is definitely going to be a pain to migrate all my Simtropolis pictures to SC4D, but I think I can manage it while keeping page page load times relatively low.

M4346: Nice to see you in here, and thanks for the welcome! :)

Dark_Jedi06: I haven't really moved, but I decided I could reach a larger audience by maintaining my journal on both sites. Also, that was only the first 3 updates. I've still got something like 7 updates that still need to be posted.

rushman5: There are a few poor areas in Fairbanks (though not many admittedly). Most of Fairbank's poor live in large apartment complexes.

sEAhAwk fAn121: Sounds interesting.  ;) Though I think Fairbanks might have that competition in the bag once a certain BAT that I've been waiting on is completed.

canuck3360: Thanks!

BigSlark: I never do stories besides a slight intro and history in the first post (which hasn't yet been migrated), and I've got so many old pictures from previous updates to post that right now I don't have time to include descriptions. However, once I start posting new updates, which will be 10-20 pictures long versus 60-70, I'll definitely be adding captions. :)

bat: Thanks!

rooker1: Ah, thanks for the lovely comment! The reason the seawalls are so crazy is that I actually built Downtown on a very small bay, but I do agree, it does look a little too "Edgy" so when I revisit the area in the near future I'll be sure to keep that in mind. As for the railways, they will be much more spaced out once you start seeing pictures further from downtown, but currently you have to remember that the railways you are seeing are only a few blocks away from downtown. And thanks again for the comment :) Oh, and the hospital you are looking for is part of the "Hospitals PackHospitals Pack (http://www.simtropolis.com/stex/index.cfm?id=18526)" available at the STEX.

Another mega update should be along pretty soon...

Fabulous set of HUGE updates, but great to see it here on SC4D.....the seawalls work is impressive as it the CBD, Suburbs and port itself.

It would seem you have a small water pollution.......if you wish Atlantis can send in it's environmental recovery team (of course they will have to work under the cover of darkness - you know for technology reasons....LOL)

No seriously Fairbanks looks fantastic and a wonderful assest to the Union.

It's me again,
I'm liking these huge updates.  Great set of pictures and their content is fantastic.  I especially like the industrial seaport.
Pictures one to ten are pretty nice.  Nothing to super about them.  The residential houses are very nice, setup is nice.  But picture ten with the store on the diagonal.  Nice idea but the parking lot doesn't look right. Maybe you use the parking lot end and put up a diagonal fence or something like that.  Either way no big deal.
Pictures eleven and twelve, great shots.  These show how much work you have done.  I like them alot.
The industrial seaport is excellent.  The only thing I don't like are those jagged edges along the avenue in one of the first pictures, I think number fourteen.
I do have one question, how did you do the dirty water?  Very nice effect!!  &apls  This looks very good.  Maybe some of it should spill out into the main river.  I really like your patience with the terraforming of the break wall.  When I first saw these I thought it was a lot that I had missed.  I'm pretty sure I have just about everything regarding industrial lots, sea and land.   &apls
The seaport itself looks great and I have no suggestions in this area.  As a matter of fact, I saw some interesting ideas, which I think I will borrow.  hehehe Thanks BTW.
The refinery looks great and I love the overall size of it.  The only thing I can suggest here, is that there are some other very dirty, ugly lots on STEX which would like great here as well.  If you are interested, PM me and I will look for the link for you.   ;)
The manufacturing area moving towards the stores looks perfect.  No suggestions here at all.
I really like this update, great work.

SIMplMn9: It's actually the exact same pictures that are on ST, minus descriptions :p Thanks for the comment though!

belfastuniguy: Thanks! But I'll be keeping my water pollution, it was a pain to plop so much of it and get it to look good! :p

bat: Thanks for the comment!

rooker1: Yeah, one through ten were really just a filler update showcasing some suburbs, and really horrible photo shop effects due to me messing around with things :p The Region shot in that update is actually horribly out of date, not much has changed in the areas you can see but there are about twice as many suburbs/other areas. I know what you mean about the jagged edges, but I wanted the cement coming right up to the roadway, as that is realistic for the type of port I was trying to create. I'm glad you like the refinery, and please share the links to those industrial lots your talking about! I do love my industry. :) As for your request in regards to the polluted water lots, they are part of Jeronij's Rural Culverts and Water Effects (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=125) pack.

beskhu3epnm: Thanks for the comment! So far I'm really loving all the great feedback I've been getting, but I really do need everyone's help in getting to page 2. I don't want to bump, but I probably won't be able to post another mega-update until we hit the next page. Page 1 is already loading horribly slow.

I feel that the MD is truly compelling.  A masterpiece at the least.  The only suggestion I have to you is to use more medium density.  But maybe that's not the trend in this region.  Once again, fantastic pictures, keep them coming (as long as you don't fill your HD with them lol) and make them more diagonal-conforming because I know you posses the tools around here to do so.  Your experimentation with them is profoundly intruiging, and the widespread use of open grass has inspiried me.  wonderful indeed.

Whoa, MT!  Great update, and some of your best pics yet.  FBX (at least that's what we call it here in Alaska) looks like it's really taking off.

Good Luck!

Ah.. yes.. that reminds me... Now that the Cup is over, will Rorysville be kind enough to keep the Pheonoia National Hockey team in your nation until the war has ended (wont be too long now..)

Well, I mean the other non-Victor Jovi members...

Post by: sebes on October 14, 2007, 04:37:13 AM
WOWOWOWOWOW : this IS going to be Classic - mind my words  &apls &apls

The start of this MD is overwhelming. The first pics of the flag and the map are nice, but the pics of the CBD are starting up the fire in me: so beautifull, the choise of offices and stadiums, the layout of the infrastructure (marrast embankments do it again!). The ringroad arround the center proves that all is very well planned in advance!
The residentials ares are just adorable: the villas along the green streets must be a dream to live in! The condos's along the shore are probably unafffordable for most people....
The airport is pants-wetting realistic. How do you do that????
The port area is one of the best ever, so well fit together, even the apartment buildings for the workers (convenient close to their work area!) are very well planned. I love to see that you have so many transport firms and storage tanks added. Makes it so realistic again!
And if that was not enough, you treat us with an most impressive military area, and as a bonus a war going on, with some action shots...

Man - I know where this MD will be next month - and can predict where it will be after a few months  &apls &apls &apls

Tons of awesomeness here again.  The region seem very expandable, and you have been doing it realistically.  I can't wait until the farms and hills are developed out side that beltway-desing highway you have there. I would also love to see a central creek or river traveling up through the plains into the small hills!

With the war with the RNAI slowly winding down, and the Pheonoian capital retaken by Myonian forces earlier in today, I thought I'd leave the storyline for a bit (since it's clearly not everyone's cup of tea) and give you guys a more traditional update this week. I've been reading "The Jungle" for school this year, and the update your going to see tonight is influenced largely by the book.

Tonight, we will be looking at a very poor area of Fairbanks, commonly called "Packingtown." This area of old, dirty, and dangerous industry produces 96% of all meat products in the country.

First, lets take a look at Durham & Co.'s Meat Packaging Plant. Built in 1929, the factory has nearly cleaned up it's act as far as sanitation goes, but it is still a labor intensive and dangerous place to work.

The Stock Yards. Here, cattle, chickens, pigs, and a list of other animals await their slaughter in cramped pens.

From the stock yards, most animals are lead to this building, where they are killed, cut, and cooked. Nearly every part of the animal is used, and everything that isn't meat is sent to the surrounding buildings, where it is made into various other products.

The massive smokehouse. Fairbanks citizens consume more smoked meats than any other country in the world, and Durham's is happy to supply them.

The dreaded Fertilizer plant. Untold horrors await new workers here, many saying that death is a better alternative to life as a fertilizer man. Wages are minimum, the work is hot and extremely dangerous, while the plant is running the entire area is enveloped in a giant, foul smelling cloud.

rushman5: I did separate the CBD from the suburbs with about 3 blocks of medium density, and I have a bit mixed in with my suburbs (though admittedly not much) so I'll keep your suggestion in mind when I renovate my downtown area in a few weeks. Thanks for the comment!

dedgren: Thanks for the comment, and the abbreviation! I've been struggling on how to abbreviate Fairbanks into 3 letters, as it's required for the SCJU wiki, among other things. FBX it is! :)
canuck3360: The Government of Fairbanks appreciates the offer, however most essential goods are now being shipped into Seattle harbor and then sent by train into Fairbanks.
SIMplMn9: Whats this? An OT post? In MY md? Please consider, for a moment, how much power the nation that is blockading your current enemy has. ;) jk!

patfirefghtr: To be honest, the RNAI never really had a chance. The war is so one sided, it could be compared to Peru going to war with the European Union. :p
sebes: Wow, thanks for all the support! :D
rushman5: Actually, I'm nowhere near done with the suburbs. They will expand to cover most of the peninsula, and there will be very little agriculture in this MD (unfortunately) I am going to try to include a few small towns with some farms, but I won't have much room.
dedgren: Thanks! I'm glad that this MD is catching on here, I was worried that it would fall behind a bit since it wasn't a European style cj (as most of the "Classics" are).

Anyways, I went to austin recently and went through an area that made me think of this. I was thinking of the land near the packing plant industrial area, and how it could be done realistically. Just keep it semi-rural and very poor close the industries, with some newer nicer suburban sprawl on the fringes of that. This belt may be unicorporated and can have very unrestricted land use, with every kind of housing and business imaginable next door to one another

patfirefghtr: Thanks!
tkirch: Thanks! It usually takes me forever to select the perfect building for an area, but for both of these it was pretty obvious!
Haljackey: Thanks for welcoming me to the new forum! I should actually thank everyone for this, as I couldn't get here without you guys! :) I really appreciate it everyone!


And, I'm going to have to apologize - I don't have an update at this time. I've done a few things, but not much with the region since the last update, and I'm busy with other things. Expect an update sometime during the week, maybe as soon as tomorrow, but no promises.

Great work, old chap!

I've actually been inspired by Fairbanks, and I am currently designing my cities like that.. when you get a chance, take a look..

Fantasic work, old bean!

Man, that is a lot of detail you've created there. I especially like the residential and industrial areas. The port is great also. Good job!!!

very nice update I like that Arena's setting plenty of parking and looks like some great laces to go before the game as well

Very nice update.  I can see you really like your parking lots, I'm not sure if I would use that many, but this is your vision.   ;) You have some very interesting custom content.  Great work.
