United Steel looks kinda plain but the low-rises look awesome, specially that brown one in the last picture. Will you have canals in your city? I feel like canals make the city looks better because you can add bridges and you have more waterfront. I can't make bridges in any of my cities for example, because most of them have been based on islands.

AHHH!! It's like Christmas with the Kranks!

Haha, jaykay. Anyways, nice improvements. I rerally love the details of this city. I wish I could be in a sunny place like Trinity City. Instead I'm here, in the cold. Bored with nothing to do. But hey, at least Christmas is tomorrow!

700 main st is probably the best building you've made, at least I really really like it. Classy, modern, without useless ornamnts, but not just a box. I can't figure out why you made it mixed-use since it's so corporate marble power.
That shot of United Steel with part of the station is priceless.

Waterfront's fantastic.

And what you're looking for in a jet is not a tweaked fokker, but a harrier, Harrier. . They are very fuel-efficient as shown here:

Well my computer has a severe virus, None of the files open and have all been locked. It's unlikly I'll get it back. Hundreds of thousands of pictures are being placed on an external harddrive.

Chances are my tjousends of SU models are likely to be erased including hundreds of massing models, textures and other things you've never seen, along with all my other stuff. 3D warehouse is my only resource, as is a internet site with San Felix, and portions of the NWTC mo and I worked on.

So cross your fingers and hope for the best...

Even Internet so y load, except for cellphone adds the virus seems to have started.

Luckily my Alaska photos, music, etc iPod are saved.

Oh man that sucks. That happened to me too and all my files were erased so ihad to restart my computer. I'm posting from my phone right now!

Anyways, hope your computer doesn't delete all your files and that you get everything bavk. Or at least it lets you export all your files into an external hard drive so that when you get a new computer you can still open them. Be careful though, you don't wanna export any files that might have viruses [music, videos, etc...]

So sorry to hear that man

I guess the only thing you can do is look on the bright side, Maybe it's a sign that need to start fresh to release your full potential ?
Anyways there is no use crying over spilled milk.
