SimCity?

[GenMarshall]

I might have to reinstal SC4 (and it's expansion pack) after reinstalling XP :x.

However, I would be only looking for useful mods and plots that would help create an efficant mass transit system (even though the $$$ are too lazy to even use them)

I've already restarted playing SimCity 4 Rush Hour after redownloading all the mods and addon's that I liked. My only wish is that there be a level tool that you saw in SC2 and SC3 instead of having to carefully use a flattening tool to carefully make a coastline to install a seawall on and dotting the terrain with street spots to induce flattening.

Sim City the original amiga version was the best.

Sim City 2000 made me and some friends spend the late summer nights in front of the screen. Remember 1 year taking close to an hour when the city started to expand. Worthy follow up.

Sim City 3000 was okish. But it was just an upgraded 2000.

Sim City 4 was a bit better, as it was difficult as heck getting the city running properly.

Sim City Societies isn't Sim City. Period.

I would recommend number 4 as it's the most updated version.

There are a set of lots that are useful for digging. You may be able to use those to massage the intended flatten area so it flattens slightly easier. But I do agree some of the terraforming tools needed more precision.

I'm working an on Arcology. Although, I found this problem in the Lot Editor

Do you know how I can flip it so that it will fit? Rotating does not work and no one on Simtropolis has given me a clear answer

The Home/End buttons usually do that unless you are doing that. You know the ones above the arrow keys.

 

[Stylesrj]

Home/end keys don't solve the problem.They don't do squat actually

Why are there rails for an Arco?

 

[Stylesrj]

To transport food and stuff from the industrial district to the building itself...

Don't question my rail lines! Just because I placed a few, does not mean they don't serve some kind of purpose!

Oh and to flip a texture, you press M (for mirror)
Someone did get back to me on that...
As I flipped it, the textures still don't match, so I dunno how to build a turn

 

[Splime]

You should move the left part of the tracks left 1 and down 1. The turn you made on the left is only 45 degrees, so you'll need another 45 degree turn to make it 90.

 

[Stylesrj]

Ok, so I tried that, but now I got this problem: The turns don't fit either:

You're close. That piece in the middle should be straight diagonal piece, like this:

_/ /
/ /

and not a turn.

FYI the original SimCity source code is now availible: http://www.donhopkins.com/home/micropolis/

 

[Stylesrj]

Well, here are ALL the pieces I can work with:

No straight diagonal pieces of else it would be done

 

[Splime]

That's all? Then it's impossible. If you're displaying every possible rail piece (make sure there aren't others scattered elsewhere) then you're out of luck.

 

[Stylesrj]

Damn. Oh well, the Grand Railroad Station leads to a straight anyway. So a 90 degree turn is impossible?

All rail pieces would be shown in the one part. I'll see if someone on simtropolis made a mod or something where they got more railway pieces so people can make turns and stuff

 

[croxis]

Have you asked at simtropolis.com?

 

[Stylesrj]

Yes. They told me to find the right tile or make it myself.

Yeah like I can do that. I asked if there were any downloads... no response yet
