Welcome to the Republic of the United Constituencies of Okaloosa Ocklawaha

This island nation is located just south of the Florida Panhandle and is surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico. It is a fairly large island with 72 large city tiles. The island starts at the shore with very flat land. Mountains and hills are found as you head farther inland. The mountains form a ring around a large lake in the middle of the island giving it a doughnut appearance. A region shot will be coming up in the next update.

UPDATE 1 - The Beginning of Aguacaleyquen Constituency

Aguacaleyquen Constituency is made up of 12 cities.

• Port St. Joseph
• Creighton Beach
• Cavalier Harbor
• San Blas City
• The Groves*
• Port St. John the Baptist
• Zephyr Point
• New Fort Walton Beach
• Lafourche Island
• Killingsworth Crossroads
• Wewahitchka
• Quincy Village

*This is the Constituency seat

Here is a basic city map:

As you see in this picture, the trees have been cut down to show where the InterConstituency Highways (I-C Hwys.) will be built.

Here is a very basic highway map:

In the next update you can expect the following:

• A region shot
• Better maps (Can anyone recommend a good way of doing this?)
• More development pictures as this constituency grows larger

29/3/10: images removed pending reformatting/resizing. Refer my PM. Images can still be viewed thru links.  Tooheys – moderator

29/3/10: Images restored at a smaller size and .jpg format.

EDIT: Direction to new region added.

I like how you planned the highways so far. The one thing I would recommend doing is trying to build using less grids as you grow out the city.

Good start. I like the I-C Highway.

Excellent start!

Replies
emgmod: Thanks for the advice. I tried to incorporate that into this update, but as you'll see, it worked, but it needed expansion.  :)

RickD: Thanks. I really like the I-C Highway, too.  :P

Battlecat Thanks!  :)

UPDATE 2: Further Development of Aguacaleyquen Constituency

The population has increased nearly 3.5 times since the last update, but total zoning and development has not increased. Here is an updated overall picture:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg9.imageshack.us%2Fimg9%2F5001%2Faguacaleyquenconstituen.jpg&hash=5b6b0049e21f17b5d838738770f051e8ebe74d19)

The total population is around 75,000 people. Skyscrapers are starting to appear in some places, especially in The Groves and in San Blas City. Port St. Joseph has seen some growth, especially thanks to one company. Zephyr Point and Quincy Village have also seen a little bit of development. Here is some info and pictures for those cities.

The Groves
The Groves, the constituency seat, is rapidly growing into a high-wealth metropolitan area. Skyscrapers are starting to fill into the area.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg638.imageshack.us%2Fimg638%2F5001%2Faguacaleyquenconstituen.jpg&hash=b1d234abfb0a1a1e9d652c7b79e13a73c58d3eb3)

San Blas City
San Blas City has recently expanded all the way to the Gulf of Mexico. It has filled in very nicely, and is rapidly catching up to The Groves development-wise.

Port St. Joseph
Now, let's not forget about the small town of Port St. Joseph, which just recently got a present from a cruise ship company. This company decided they would like to build a port in this small, but growing town. Some expansion has occurred, but more is anticipated.

Zephyr Point and Quincy Village
Not much to say about these cities that are just now seeing some development. I just thought it'd be important to say that some development has occurred, and some more can be anticipated in a later update.
There's no picture available for Zephyr Point or Quincy Village.

I promised a road map, and I'm going to give you one. I'm not completely satisfied with this.  &mmm I made it in MS Paint. If anyone can recommend a better way of making a road map, I'm all ears. Some city limits lines have been adjusted. The empty part north of Quincy Village is part of Quincy Village.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg32.imageshack.us%2Fimg32%2F4571%2F1269908118197.jpg&hash=4afc24f916b440c1824dcedeb66811b21118994b)

Unfortunately, I was not able to get a region shot as I am still trying to finish up the northern portion of the region. Hopefully it will be finished by either Update 3 or 4.

Next Update

• More development in Port St. John, Zephyr Point, and possibly Creighton Beach
• Region map?
  
• Some roadgeekery?
• Better road map if anyone can recommend a better way of making a map

Great start, and nice region!!!

You are developing a really nice skyline there. There is a bit too much repetion in buildings if I may add some criticism.  :P

I'm a fan of maps in MDs. Yours is a good start. I haven't done much better myself. But I am currently learning how to use Inkscape. It is a free vector graphics program and should be more suitable for making maps than paint.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to your next update.

Replies
Tomas Neto: Thanks :)

RickD: No problem with the criticism. I did notice some repitition, and hopefully in one of my Update 3's there will be less. Thanks for telling me about Inkscape. I just downloaded it today. :)


Okay, so Update 3 will be in three, possibly four, mini-updates. In this update, I'm going to show the beginning of my roadgeekery. The pictures that I will post will be fairly simple (again, made in MS Paint), but I like how they turned out. Tell me what you think.

Some things I know about the map:

• City limits lines are not straight
• Street names are somewhat difficult to read
• Some roads are missing
• Highway markers are missing

These improvements will be made in the next map and here's what else you can expect in the final update of the Update 3 Series

• Region shot
• Development pictures
• Roadgeekery
• Weather

The map looks better than it first did! Roadgeekery is always good.

Nice work on your map and the signs.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN UPDATE 4

• The long-awaited region shot
• More roadgeekery
• More development pics

It is time to announce that I am ending the Mayor Diary about the Republic of the United Constituencies of Okaloosa-Ocklawaha.

But this thread will continue from now on as:

THE UNITED OKALOOSA CONSTITUENCIES

Information on this new region will be coming soon.

This new region will include:

• The new NAM May 2010
• The new RHW 4.0
• The new NWM 1.0
• Roadgeekery
• Weather

That is all for this "Update/Renewal of my MD."

Hmm, ok. I'll wait for it. ;)

Welcome to the United Okaloosa Constituencies
Update #1 - A Welcome to the Region

Currently, I don't have a region shot, but to give you a little bit of information about the area, the region in real life is Pensacola. It is 8x7 large city tiles which provides plenty of areas to build and test new ideas out. There are three classes of highways in my region:

• InterConstituency Highways (abbrev. I-C Hwy.)
• United Okaloosa Constituency Highways (abbrev. UOC Hwy.; as you'll see in pictures, I mixed up the letters)*
• Constituency Routes (abbreviated according to Constituency Name)*

*These routes are co-signed with Florida State Routes.

The city of Pensacola has decided to become a little region within a state. Though separate from state and county affairs, Pensacola is still considered part of Florida. Thus the reason of the co-signing of highways. The Florida State Route numbers that I use are former numbers, numbers used in Pensacola, and numbers that have never been used at all.

The first constituency we will be working in is Ntlakyapamuk Constituency. (Don't ask for pronunciation because I have no idea  ;D)

Currently in the region, there are about 6,500 residents. Within the constituencies, there are usually about 10 cities, but those won't be mentioned until we get a map in the next update. Now to the pictures.

Before we get to the roadgeekery and traffic, we will take a look around Ntlakyapamuk Constituency (still, don't ask for the pronunciation; I still have absolutely no idea how to say it). The population of the constituency has now reached 97,500 residents. The constituency has slowed down on its growing outward and focused more on growing upward for a while.

P.S. I also apologize if the traffic signal pictures are cut off on the right side. I don't know quite what is wrong they're, but I assure you that the size of those pictures are 1024x768

Welcome to page 2!!!

Great MD! The traffic/roadgeekery part was my favorite! I can't wait fore more. The traffic lights are very creative and yes, I do agree with the proposition to make the new entrance ramp onto I-C Hwy 904. I think you should BAT some of your own traffic signs. I know that there are some great tutorials out there like this one  (http://www.simtropolis.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=37&threadid=111072&enterthread=y). Heck, I could probably even do it for you once school lets out.

Here is one of the signs I have for my region (Not BATed yet):
