Hard. Worked fine last time too.

It's probably all the little islands that are placed to make bridge building difficult if not impossible.

Maybe you could do two seperate cities on the two sides?

Actually all the major landmass can be connected by bridge by building 3 bridges up the left side then a bridge across the top. A bunch of the islands can also be connected by bridge. Amphibious transit is also in option .

This is the CURRENT VERSION OF THE PLUGINS, including the trash chute. It is the version of the NAM that we used in the last game. I looked at (and DLed) the July version of NAM, but I don't understand enough of the 'optional' details to install it myself, nor did we agree yet to do that.

If we're going to do that (which i'm fine with), someone please post an updated version.

FYI the "options" files don't actually change between NAM releases, only the main file (by far the largest) needs to be replaced in order to upgrade. I'll be using an up to date version; the most important thing is everyone uses the same option files, altough even this isn't critical, the options basically determine difficulty and also ensure that a few graphs remain accurate when viewed by others - especially the commute time one.

Hmm, i have the UK version with left hand driving, do i need an extra file then? There used to be an additional file, but i don't see one in the plugins folder.

Ive already played a fair bit of my city so im using the NAM we used last time, with the garbage chute.

Here is the extra plugin file which you must use if your version of SimCity has left-hand driving...

I put my save in the wrong place Lemmy, now i see Xiamen exists. Ill leave this one there for the time being, or you can move it.

Anyway heres my start, cut it close with the highways but got them all in place. This is gonna be a big city, not too much high-wealth, plenty of traffic.

I get an error when I try to load in the bitmap - it says it's the wrong size.

[Koyaanisqatsi]

I don't know--the map worked for me.

Would it be possible to have two more plugins? I'd like to use these...they're roadside versions of the bus and subway stations.

I put up a zipfile with all the appropriate plugins and dependencies if we want to use them--just unzip and drop in the plugins folder.

OK, I'm taking tile DE45.

Someone ought to take CD67 so Snotty won't be cut off from the rest of us, unless that is his intention.

[Kuciwalker]

OK, apparently SC4 wants it to be square. I get the error "Region bitmap size is incorrect - 1089x641, should be 1025x1025". I resized the image to 1025x1025 (by just adding a bunch of water at the bottom) and tried to load it, and nothing happened.

Can you form ferry connections with only people adjacent to you, or with anyone connected to you by water?

That's odd... it shouldn't be looking for a square bitmap. Did you place the custom config.bmp file into the Xiamen region folder before loading the region bitmap?

[Kuciwalker]

Yes.

Anyone can connect by ferry, even if there are undeveloped cities in between. Guess Snotty won't be screwed so long as he builds a ferry terminal.

[Snotty]

Its the region folders in your my documents folder, not the regions folder in your program files folder.

Im not fussed if anyone starts near me, i wasnt planning on building a ferry, but I probably will if its a good idea

Xiamen - Bubble Junction '05.
R: 22,237
C: 3,538
I: 7,314

Made avenue connections to all my neighbours, but i forgot to plan for a mass transit system..means i'll have to demolish some of my city later on. Also build 2 overpriced bridgesm didn't realize untill later that i could've used cheaper ferries instead.

Lots of low-wealth still, looks hideous really...
