Great start.  Your DT core looks good as well as your cloe up on the bridge.  I'll have to wait to see what you have for us next.

I am sorry for not updating this sooner, but I recently had to transfer my simcity files back to my laptop, unfortunately I have to get the CD Driver working again.


However I managed to show an old picture that is outdated, but however shows my extensive Freeway system, as I am a paving maniac  :D.

This is an Overview of New Mombasa and suburbs.  The city size is indicated by the size of the font.  Beltway 8 will eventually be a full outer loop.

The I-610 now is fully connected, but I do not have a screenshot, it connects with I-75 which continues north.

Key:

PR= Platte Republic, PR-17 is an expressway that will eventually link I-610 with Beltway 8
Green= Freeway

An overview of my I-610 and I-10 interchange.


All feedback is appreciated!  More to come.

sweet good to see an update here sincitybaby!!! Great job on them too, just one suggest is to kill the grid by pressing G on your Key Board...

Like the interchange,btw don't I-10 and I-75 join inland a little more IRL.

Using Tarkus's tutorial I was able to make a google map!  So thank you to him.

Now on to replies!

@bat:  Thank you for the comment.

@Pat:  Geez, thanks for reminding me, I knew I was doing something wrong  :D, and thank you for the compliment.

@NASCAR_Guy:  Thanks,  Actually I-75 and I-10 is alot more inland and surprisingly I found that it is no where near a major city  ???.  Thankfully my country is fiction, and The I-10 and I-75 interchange is near Downtown, which is on the gridded Island.

Now for the Update:

That is the map I made, It currently only covers one tile where I-10 and I-610 meet


Comments are appreciated!!

Maps are a lot of work, my friend- it's obvious you are one who is willing to put in the time.  Actually, I'm jealous a bit- I was never successful in making the GMAP Uploader work- I'll have to try again.

Good stuff here!  Good Luck!

Maybe because of its upbeat financial district
