I have drawn and linked up several roads in northern Vinnmark, particularly around Hanviller, Vinn, Köln and Kongshavn. This means that it is now possible to get “directions” to those places. I have also cleaned up some of the motorways and primary road system around Berles and the aforementioned towns.

Hi everyone!
I keep going on with my Welstand-Westrijk rebuilt. Everybody is responding so well to my changes even if I’m focusing on the capital Kirchenburg right now, so THANKS SO MUCH everybody.
The Kirchenburg 2020 Geolympiad bid is starting working. I know Kirchenburg is still not finished, but i like it to be so detailed, or at last half detailed for the begining.
As i told sometimes before, one of the things i love the most of OGF is the opportunity to design stuff. And international events are like candy for me. That’s why I apply to the Geolympiad, and that’s why i was asking days ago about what hapened to Geovision Song Festival (I’d love to host an event like that) That’s why i have the only international art fair in OGF, even if no one was so interested, and that’s why i have the main haute couture company (I’d love to prepare a Fashion Week too) So, if any of you are interested in create something like this, or have any opinion about it…just tell me.
While creating the new Kirchenburg and deleting the old one, I’ve lost a lot of embassies placed in the city. At this moment there are only a few from neighbour countries (Vinnmark, Shilesia and Koban). So I’m interested in knowing who is interested in having an embassy at Kirchenburg.
Since the area changed by the Hetzer Firth, Welstand-Westrijk started to being part of the Vinnic Economic Comunity. Has anyone talked about the idea of build the official buildings in the same city? Or would be possible to give each city an official building? If so, Kirchenburg would be a perfect place for it :P haha
I remind to all the monarchies around, Welstand-Westrijk is a monarchy too. Welstand-Westrijk history is just a sketch by now, but i’d love to write some common history between other countries and Welsrijk.
Taking the chance, now that im talking about a lot of stuff, want to say that I’m in love with Myrcia hahah.
How are you folks doing? My redoing of Pasalia’s Capital is continuing. Your nation is invited to build its embassy here: http://opengeofiction.net/edit#map=16/-46.8080/68.9973 Happy Mapping everyone
Yes I know the name of the city is in no way original. Can someone advise the population estimate of the city? With this city I am looking at how things were when motorways were being designed and constructed.
It looks like someone flooded Archanta again. Older tiles show land, but newer ones show water on top of everything.
I really hope you guys like it. Let me know if you have any comments, or suggestions as to how I proceed. I really want to make this city the best as I can, and with everyone’s help, I know that can be achieved.
Hello to all, I have been working on Terwen’s capitol city, Campech, for a while now, and have mostly completed it. I want to take a look at Campech and ask for suggestions and criticisms on the city. I think that Campech is at least currently my best try at a city because its the first time I’ve made a city with features like detailed building complexes and geography. I know that it needs improvements like a proper mass transit system and more details in certain areas, but I would like to hear your suggestions on what I can do to improve the city. I plan for the city to have a population of between 600,000 and 750,000 in the district limits, and 4-5 million in the metro (seperate from the future San Opicho metro). I also am planning an airport here. So please, give me your most honest and helpful criticisms so that I can improve my cities.
Welcome to Aludres, the national capital of the Sovereign Republic of Leresso!
Anyone is welcome to construct their embassy in the outlined area in the downtown area.
If you are wondering where Leresso is, it is two countries southwest of Eŋrige. It is also known as AR141b.
Hello all,
I finally finished another long semester of school and I haven’t had much free time to work on Jefferson. Although I’ll be taking summer classes, I will be back now!
As I move forward, I want to take a look at Patriot City and get feedback. Specifically, what needs to be changed to improve the city?
I’m aware that Patriot City fits all the criteria on the laundry list of frequent complaints: -Grid city -USA style -Lots of motorways -etc. . .
I prefer to work on small areas of detail at a time and you can see that from the way the city is half finished. Since I began my OGF career at the city center and then mapped out, I expect that you guys will have many suggestions for that area.
I eventually intend for the city to have a population of between 900,000 and 1 million within city limits, and 3-4 million in the metro area (which I haven’t even begun).
And yes, an airport has been planned for the longest time, here, it just hasn’t been mapped yet.
So please, give me your harshest, most honest critiques!
Hey everyone,
as I started working on an OpenGeoFictionRailwayMap, one though came to mind, we all map railways, but so far i haven’t seen anyone develop a signal system for thier country. I started developing one in the wiki for L&A but I’m not an in-depth person regarding railways.
So my question: Anyone has a working railway signal system for their country?
Edit: To clarify, it’s not overwikification IMHO because I will actually use my signalling system to render it on a map
A new version of the iD editor was released recently;

For now, I have no intention to integrate it into the OGF main site, but you can use it here:
Hey there, After only being active very sparsely for the past 3 months I can announce that I’ll finally be ending my break and start to waste my free time on ogf again. I’ve got more sheets with scrabbled notes saying ,,Ogf ideas” on them then you can imagine. Kingfries is back and i’ve got a ton of stuff to haul up too.
See you soon
It appears that surface routes are being replaced with motorways in the northern end of Commonia. Many such of these routes have been around for a long time. What is the obsession with such an over utilization of motorways anyway?
I map out routes that were original routes then go back in map out new alignments. There are some instances wherein I map out both a new highway but then envision an old alignment or business route as well.
Are there any interesting or strange events and locations in your country? It would be cool to see some oddities here!
For Agarderia, there was an unrecognised microstate Free Republic of Zimna Forest declared for exactly a month in 1986 but then annexed by the Agarderian government. Partially satirising ‘countries’ such as Sealand and Liberland (and possibly the libertarian right), partially the product of boredom and unwillingness to map.
It’s on my sandbox page for the time being because I’d say it’s a case of overwikification, as the actual village currently looks like this. I’ll consider moving the article to a proper wiki page once Agarderia is mapped more intensively and after I’ve polished up the page and photos.
Does anyone else have any quirky features they’d like to share?
hello all, I need serious help with the new search thing..Noma…whatever. Frankly I don’t like it, because I don’t understand it xD I preferred the old search thing, but I don’t know the name of it either. Which is why I am asking.
What is the name of the old search thing that can search for specific tags? Or can anybody explain to me how I can search by tag on the new Nomatilian or whatever.
Sorry for being so frank, but I am extremely frustrated as I have not been able to understand it for months, and it is getting to me REALLY BADLY. Thanks in advance

i have worked hard on Balkaria, but I want to trade it for an unclaimed territory where I can start fresh. i have wiki articles for Balkaria. any suggestions as to what I should do?
I’m not sure how to delete the nodes on my shoreline as I have too much :c. On JOSM I don’t know and on ID it takes forever and potlatch (the one I used to edit the shoreline) won’t load and I can only slowly delete the nodes. I need some help from anyone who knows how to use JOSM to delete nodes along my shoreline. Thanks!
Hi, I saw that transnational contential motorway systems are not so popular so I thought of suggesting another mode of transportation that spreads within continents- railways.
Like some of those stated here, I wonder whether is this possible in separate continents, if not for those unoccupied territories. It can improve connectivity for people and cargo, instead of just ships and planes.
I thought I post some insights (if there ever is), but has anyone tried Fractal Terrains 3? I checked it out this weekend and tried the demo, and was wondering if anyone tried it to create land patterns, etc…
A possible heads-up. I hope I’m not spamming, as I myself am trying to find ways to make a realistic territory, which is the reason for my long absence (I managed to delete my odd riverways for a new one).
Take care all,
J
Footnote: I also am checking out another fractal terrain editor (possibly) called Wilbur. I thought anyone might like to check it out as well.
Could somebody help me detail Omniville? Thanks!
