A big Playa with palms everywhere.

A MODERN BEACHFRONT!!! with a scatter of palm trees...

A rocky shore.

Beautiful! I would love to see the use of Mayor Menu sand, palms, and other flora.

I like to stay there to enjoy the view! :dream:

New update on the beach. I hope you like it, and please be as critical as possible with my rock work.

Nice job there, Thomas!

Nice job! Try making the rocks less in a row and vary in size. But I think if you add trees, etc, it shouldn't matter too much.

cant wait for more

Miguel: Thank you. Although I'm looking for advice in this thread, not just praise.

Sky Guy: Thanks for the advice, it's greatly appreciated. Hopefully this image is a little better?

Can you show me the link to those walls or at least the name of them? Those look nice and I have an idea for them. Also the beach looks excellent.

They're Japanese ones that are on the STEX and LEX.

Oh yeah thats so much better. I am really getting excited for the final result.

So how do the people go on the beach then if there's no access?

Evillions: There's a teleport tube that takes them there.
I might make a small street down there soon, I just didn't want to disrupt the rocks and sand.

Now for a glance at a new village I'm creating... any tips on how to improve it? I'm especially looking for something to place between the railway and the motorway, and for opinions on the rock mod.

Wow! that is fantastic- both te river and terrain re great.

for the empty space, maybe place some industrial lots since they have access to the rail and motorway.

Thanks Sky Guy, that's a great suggestion and I'm glad you like the river. What should I do about the hill?

hmm, I would make the hilly terrain extend into the next city so it's not just a quick little "bump" and then I would plant some scrubby type plants and low laying flora.

hope that helps.

Thanks Sky Guy, that's very helpful.

Some of you may have noticed as you came to read this post, that Cattala is no longer a "Royal and Holy" Kingdom. That's right - now I have a plain old 'Kingdom'.

Although actually, it's the only country that is solely a Kingdom. The other two are Royal, and Federal.

Here's a list of some of my upcoming projects for Cattala... If you have any more suggestions please make them here!

~ National Overview: Mainly for ST viewers who don't read the history, government updates, foreign affairs, newspapers and maps.

~ National Culture: Based on what SirronKcuhc is doing with Matinenda. It will feature a school calendar, public holiday list, special dates and cultural images.

~ Historic Images: To brighten up the history thread, I will aim to produce some images about Cattala's history to make it less text-focused.

~ Religion and Wiki: Complete the information about the national faith and update the wiki page.

~ Politics and Diplomacy: Introduce a thread based on Spy's one about the latest political situations and major votes, as well as producing a Government information thread based on Arcacia's.

Plus I'm also going to be continuing with the construction of Celeste and updating you all on Seina and Calora. Easter is just around the corner so maybe that will make an appearance...

Is there something to add? I think it's pretty good and I can't wait to see your projects done!

Work on all of those projects is ongoing. Watch this space!

I'm in need of some touristy, beach front style buildings. I have a few but they aren't that great. Any ideas guys?

A preview of a motorway I'm working on...



Any suggestions for improvements? I haven't properly built a motorway since last May... So I'm very rusty. Advice will be greatly appreciated.

I like it! Just add some on and off ramps, interchanges, and eye-candy and this would become a very nice highway system!

What kind of eye-candy?
