City maps designed by me

The hobby for designing maps have a long history. Starting from 6 years old I was drawing random roads on paper and coloured them in various colors. The first time I designed a map of a real city was at age of 14, in 2003 I made on paper a map of my city downtown with a special attention given to historical buildings.

Palatul Cantacuzino "Micul Trianon" din Floreşti Prahova

Palace Trianon 3D design in AutoCAD

This palace is one of the most beautiful 3D modeling works that I ever designed in AutoCAD. Many people were impressed not only by the beautiful 3D renders, but also for excellent model geometry that makes it to look like 18-19th century neoclassic architecture. Some people asked me how I got the idea to design such complex building, and suggested to change some details to make it better, BUT…

Paper to CAD conversion

Paper to CAD drawing conversion services

Most AutoCAD designers offering paper-to-CAD conversion simply put the scanned JPG in background and draw over it, every line, often making various identical drawing elements at different dimensions, aka low-quality CAD drawing.

Personally I offer quality paper-to-CAD conversion services, taking care to make every element of drawing a rounded dimension, and in case of floor plans of various buildings, I will give you option to add dimensions in CAD file as they are in the original floor plan, as well as adding more dimensions, or providing a CAD file without dimensions but designed according dimensions from the scanned floor plan.

You give me JPG, PNG or other raster image format, and I give you DWG, DXF or PDF. Contact me for price quote!

Website penalized by Google and my solution

I added too many keywords in image ALT tags on 2 pages each with around 100 images. These 2 pages have been the first to be penalized by Google, in mid-2013 for few months they were no longer appearing in searches and traffic dropped with 90%. I should have taken this as a WARNING that I do something wrong, but I did not paid any attention and continued adding ALT tags stuffed with keywords. On 12 October 2013 whole site was removed from Google search results for most keywords, causing traffic drop from 500 to 150 daily visitors. On 9 January 2014 remove the ALT and TITLE tags. Surprise, next day 10 January penalty was lifted (after 90 days).

Caesar III

Caesar 3

Caesar III is one of my favorite games. I got the demo version in 2000 from a magazine CD. Demo version include only first 2 missions but 2nd one is bigger than in full game. Started playing in the morning and build as much I can by end of day, reaching population of about 5000, Demo version was not allowing me to save game.

I got the full game only in 2005, and I played it a lot in 2005-2006, then in 2008, and a little since October 2011, the moment in which I created this page on my website, originally strictly for cities built by me. In 2012 the business forced me to stop playing games, but I kept expanding page adding info about game itself.

Age of Empires

Excel tables made by me, containing list and tree of buildings, villagers, military units, boats, animals, research and upgrades. Hit points, attack, armor, piercing armor, range, speed, cost, time required to produce, etc.

Beetle Buggin

Beetle Crazy Cup

Beetle Crazy Cup, also know on warez websites as Beetle Buggin' (probably due to amount of software bugs included in game), or Käfer Total, is one of the worst racing games I ever played… but it can be fun if is played at home with a friend.

Beetle Crazy Cup is the most recent game that can be played with 2 persons at same computer, know by me. Do you know other such games?

I created an Excel table: Beetle Crazy Cup.xls containing statistics such as vehicle list with car prices and car top speed in each gear.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

GTA Vice City & San Andreas

Probably one of most played games today is Grand Theft Auto. Although I do not like violent games, I still played Vice City and San Andreas around 2005-2007, more as a driving game, not shooting and killing as many is possible (as my friends were doing!), but I also finished all missions of the story line.

I show here the Excel files made by me with statistics about game:
GTA Vice City mission tree, property list, weapons list, vehicle list with their top speed and other info.
GTA San Andreas vehicle list with their top speed and other specs, mission tree, weapons.

Miner VGA

MinerVGA

I played MinerVGA starting from 1998 for few years, losing every time (money earned from minerals was not enough to cover costs of digging). In 2016 I suddenly remembered this game, saw some walkarounds on YouTube, played it again and won it for the first time.

Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed

Need For Speed

My favorite racing game was Need For Speed: Porsche 2000 / Porsche Unleashed. I got it in 2003 from a friend. I made this table NFS Porsche 2000.xls, including car list, top speed of each car, written my personal records, and other stuff.

The next Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 was a worsen game, as they moved to Arcade style of racing, no damage. Got it from friends. I made table NFS Hot Pursuit 2.xls, containing car list, car max speed, career track, prices, etc.

Supaplex

Supaplex was the 1st game I ever played, shortly after my dad bought our first computer in 1995, but lost it in 1997 due to HDD crash. Once I connected to internet in 2005 I found a Windows version, Megaplex, and few years later I found original Supaplex again on DOS Games Archive. I made Supaplex level list in Excel

The Sims 2

I started playing The Sims in 2003 and The Sims 2 became my favorite game, I built over 50 houses in it and few more in The Sims 3 too, which I offer for free download on this website. I also love making tables, statistics and data analysis in Excel, for list of neighborhoods, worlds, jobs and list of items for all 4 Sims games.

List of SBF launches

Sale of Balance Flats, comprising unsold leftover flats from past BTO launches, surplus flats from SERS projects, old repurchased flats (including flats from some divorced or fiance couples), are done "when HDB accumulate sufficient flats", usually twice per year, but this is NOT A RULE. Since 2010 the SBF exercise is done same day with a BTO launch.

Indian mobile phones

I created another mobile phones database with only models currently sold in Indian market. Due to poor sales I no longer update this database and you are advised to buy worldwide phone database.
