New Simcity 4 RH game

[snoopy369]

Can someone point me to the plugins? I'm not familiar with SC4 plugins, so i'll probably need a link

Tunnel digging mod

Settings reposted from previous thread

Automata (controls traffic displayed) - Standard
Pathfinding - Better, 5xcapacity, 10xcommutetime (I find these settings more realistic, IMHO)
ANT (Additional Network Tool) - No
Custom Highway Menus (simply a menu design issue) - Yes
Stack Interchange addon - Yes

I still have all the necessary files zipped together, ready to go. I'll repost this from the old thread for those new players:

xxxxxxx

To ensure we're using the same things, please use the following plugins folder:

http://home.comcast.net/~jonny11788/Plugins.zip

Backup your current plugins folder. Unzip this one and copy it over the current plugins folder. Note that you have two plugin folders, one in the Program Files/Maxis/SimCity 4 folder (or wherever you installed the game), and one in [your name]/My Documents/SimCity 4 folder... make sure both are empty of any transit-related mods before inserting the new folder, or there could be conflicts.

IMPORTANT: If in your version of the game, cars drive on the left side of the road (either because of where you live or bought the game, or because you changed it manually), you must add the following zipped file (attached below) to this new plugins folder as well. But only if you have left-hand driving, otherwise you do not need it.

I will upload my city in a few hours.

Tartarus-2005

Every region needs a hellhole, and Major EPW has decided to take the task upon himself.

The wicked(and always poor) souls take up residence here. Although there is a distinct lack of social services, there is a quick and efficient mass transit system always in place to hurry them to their dismal and usually tormenting jobs.



And here is the bustling Industry, and notice that the Hades Freeway is already open!



And here is an overview of the underworld:



And the save(the zip file is named Epwood do to technical difficulties which have yet to be resolved):

I take it no one had problems importing my city? I accidently left the "no palm trees (replaced with broadleafs)" mod.

No problems here.

Introducing Floreat City

Floreat City is planned to be a great commercial and residential center, with many tall shiny skyscrapers, efficient transport systems based on road/highway, bus, and monorail, and a limited focus on industrial growth.

Unfortunately, for the time being, it's not much more than an overglorified slum, but hopefully as regional prosperity increases, the wealth and glory of the city will rise.

Floreat Factoid #1: Floreat comes from the Latin for "let it prosper", a wish for good fortune upon the city.

Connections made: Hooked up to the road and monorail connections from Maq and the road connection from EPW. Made an avenue connection to MrMitchell, and monorail connections to both MrMitchell and EPW.

Pictures to come.

Floreat City 05 In Pictures!

Here is the main part of the city, very slummish at the time being. It's a mix of commercial and residential. Bus system and monorail system have been established here.




Progress Point, near the connections to Hot Springs and Takeshi City, is one of the few industrial zones in the city.




Due to the mainly low-income composition of the city at this time, the city's budget had to be supplemented in other ways... thus the city has become home to Mr. Y's Galactic Domination Headquarters. He pays over $1000/month in rent for land.

What difficulty are we playing at?

[EPW]

Hard.

[snoopy369]

Okay ... i'll probably suck at this the first time through, as i've never played above medium But, that means you'll have someone to beat

I also have been having some weird graphical problems - and me with a fairly decent system and all. Lots of issues with 'artifacts' and other poly-rendering problems. Ah well, it should be ok at least, as long as it saves correctly (had a problem there too )

[Maquiladora]

No one "wins" these games, although it is fair to say i won the last game.

[snoopy369]

Hmm ... I have Jonny's integrated into my region fine, but it keeps deleting EPW's region when i load the region.

Any suggestions?

[Maquiladora]

Try importing it again, or deleting it and importing it again.
