Download Super Demand Mod (Not Demand Ordinance) 1

* * * * * 158 Votes

Screenshots
Many people here will probably remember the "Super Demand Ordinances" Mod. This one is more powerful, more controllable, bug-free, and does not use ordinances.

This set of .dat files can either maximize - set to 6000, or suppress - set to 0, demand for R$, R$$, R$$$, Cs$, Cs$$, Cs$$$, Co$$, Co$$$, I-Ag, I-D, I-M, and I-HT individually. It's a bit complex to use - a readme is included - but it works wonderfully. It stomps over demand caps, ignores occupancy availability and growth speed - though desirability is still important - and ensures maximal growth of a city, in your preferred direction. With this mod, cities can - even with only R$$$, Cs$$$, Co$$$, and I-HT - exceed the population of an entire country.

This mod has no dependencies, but is incompatible with:

-Colossus Addon Mod (Perhaps)
-Super Demand Ordinance
-Any other demand-altering mod.

BEFORE YOU POST A "IT DOESN'T WORK PLEASE HELP ME" COMMENT, READ THE README FILE.

So this really works? It's an excellent idea. I have a great use for this thanks!
This is where I really shine. I'm rather experienced with taking games apart and digesting their data - creating artistic content is what gives me trouble.
I am into realism, so mods kills the gameplay for me. Probably won't use it. However, I absolutely love the idea of this mod for the few random times when id really like to screw around and see some of those bigger less-seen buildings. This mod sounds amazing for that! Can't wait to try it.

lol "perhaps"
Yes. I'm not sure, but it might be, according to callagrafx (Sc4Devotion).
Im confuse about using in the Total folder. What should i gonna copy to my plugins?
Fantastic...For those who want to use it. I know I will. Thanks.
@tedhzeer Read the readme.
HELP!! i cant find the original super demand mod in my plugins. so i cant use this Mod if its incompatible.
Thnx RadicalOne great General modd so if you say your good at pulling apart games and modiefing them wich i believe you can do than were have you been all this time because this is a great general modd Hiandby4 out
@hiandby4: This mod has been on my computer for over a year. It was not until recently that I found that I was allowed to upload pure mods (no BAT, lot, etc) to the STEX.
The RCIMulti MOD already does this (and other optional stuff) and has only 25Kb. The working principle is the same but this mod changes unnecessary examplars to reach the same effects which inflate the file size to 4Mb...
nice
i've maxed R$$$ but no one is moving in....only in small houses...is this a bug or am I doing something wrong ? thnx
the bad part about not ahving it as an ordinance is that u cant choose to not the cheat. i rather not cheat the game wen i dont want to
So, the demands will never sink (down to zero) like what the 2003 version of the Super demand mod did to my previous regions?
@ Loney: Not unless you choose it to. @ lpfainter: Check desirability and population. You won't high density until you reach about 26000 people, and medium will come at 1100.
>>won't get high density
when you say sc4 plugins folder in the readme, do you mean I am supposed to move your .dat folders to the DVD drive with the Simcity 4 while it's in my comp?
wait sorry that was a stupid question. But then, where do I find the sc4/plugins/radicalone mods folder? I mean aren't that .dat files originally in that folder when we downloaded it and unzipped it?
my buildings won't abandon after awhile like they did with that super ordinance mod, will they? ::
@tangyjackie: In "My Documents/SimCity 4/Plugins/", create a folder "RadicalOne Mods" to place my .dat files in. It's a good habit to keep the mods organized by uploader or type. @sodatwin: No.
thanks for the info radicalone....however I am still experiencing some technical difficulties. When I try to touch anything in the maxout or any other folder....windows explorer automatically shuts down, and I can't even drag that file over to the RadicalOneMods folder that I've created in /Simcity4/Plugins....it says Power Cinema is the reason behind the closure of Windows Explorer...does Vista have problems with .dat files?
Vista has no problems that I know of. Try shutting down Power Cinema. Open Task Manager, go to Processes, and find Power Cinema. It will be something like powercinema.exe, or pcin.exe, etc. Right click it, and terminate the process. Then try to copy the data files.
Very nice mod, but too bad I use CAM =(
This should come in very handy to get cities to grow just the way I want them to. Should work much better then other mods. Much appreciated.
A thousand downloads in 18 hours? Wow.
I've recently downloaded this mod thinking that it would solve some demand issues from the Super Demand Ordinance. (i.e. Dirty industry ALWAYS building) I did everything you said for an example (in the readme) and all i see is ZERO demand...Help?!?! Oh, and btw, I deleated the S.D.O.
should create custom ordinances update would make this mode better..like radical ordinance
@Shock137: You probably didn't read the readme properly. It explicitly says "Please do not use all "suppress" DATs for any category, and please use a file for EVERY wealth level. The effects of not doing so are unpredictable and may include all demand going below 0, abandonment, and crashing."
Earwax - it may actually work with CAM. All the mod does is modifies the minimum demand possible - so you can set taxes to like 20% and still have your demand maxed out! I'm not sure how it would be inCAMpatible ... give it a try. This is very nice. The annoyance is that it is regional, not city-wide, but otherwise, this is as good as it gets.
Chris, my belief that it is inCAMpatible comes from an important user at SC4Devotion. Talk to callagrafx for details.
hey i followed your instructions in the readme carefully and i only seemed to have luck with commercial and industrial however, residential demand is nonexistant
You must have done something differently for residential than you did the other types. Check to make sure you have a file in place for each type of residential, ensure not all are "suppress" files, and ensure you have the appropriate "maxout" file in place for residential.
trank you
tank you
i when i downloaded this and tried to play,the demand for everything was at zero and i dont know how to change it..PLEASE HELPPPPPP, thank you
yeah how do i fix it were everything is in demand i only want i-ht and R-$$$ C-$$$
Read the readme.
thanks friend ;)... it's not really hard to use it

Love it my city of Mechanicburg rose from 3.4 million to 4.million in about 2 1/2 hours playing time. No problems with the CAM that I've experienced
When I downloaded the mod my lots wouldn't develup
uhmm the mod sort screws up my game. When I activate the mod, the game cannot do any disasters, and when I bulldose something, its not very realistic destruction... its like a click, and it disappears. and when i terraform, it makes no sound. is this a bug? and also the wind mills disappear
Im new here and this mod ROCKSSS!!! XD
Finnally I get to build skyscrapers :D ( But the advisors piss me off ) :(
ok ya so im confused , ive made a folder called RadicalOne Mods and i put whats in the maxout folder in it , then i counted them up and put the required amount of things from the total folder , i go to play and my demand is at zero someone please help me because it wont work and i have been trying to figure this out for a while now
This is Awesome! Great Work =D
do i have to put in a supress for everything? even the ones i max out?
nevermind i fixed it somehow. awesome mod dude =)
YAYAYAYAYYA thank you so i can have skyrapers lol
=)
Works no problem, nice one mate
Nice mod, but too bad you can't customize it on a per city basis over a region. It'd be nice if you could tie it to taxation where the effect of taxes on demand was extremely manipulated. IE 0 tax = super high demand and 20% is huge negative demand. That way you could use the tax rates to control the sliders more specifically.
I've got a problem with this mod. I once used it on a city, but now I want my normal RCI back. I deleted - I think - all of your files in my plugin folder, but now my RCI meter is static... It doens't change anymore... Do you have a solution?
Co-$$$!!! R-$$$ WOW@@@ Very I likes. Thanks you@
so good!
It's fabulous, but I get unemployment...I don't know why :( I have enough working places for everybody and still there's unemployment, but I love this Mod!
awsome but another mod i put in the plugin IT DOESN'T WORK

This Mod Sucks!!! Every Time I start a new city and zone,I SEE NO DEVLOPMENT!!!. Even I Wait for many years and stil I see no devlopment. Did I do something wrong?
GLORIOUS
love it.... this is absolutely perfect to test traffic (among other things) in mega cities, without waiting too long.
Well, I decided to uninstall this mod since I got a bit tired of it, but now all my demands are stuck at 0! Help me!
nvm I figured out problem. Once I got rid of a region that relied on the mod, my demands went back to normal.
dit is nep download dit niet. anders komen er geen mensen meer bij. twanb
I read the readme, and did what it told me to, and it still won't work. So let me see if I got this right: You extract to plugins like everything else, you make a new folder named "Radical0ne Mods" without the quotation marks, place another folder in there called "Demand Mod" and place in the .dat files you want to raise your demand with.
Do you have one file (either suppress or max) for each zone type, and ONLY one for each type?
I don't understand the differences between the files in Max Out folder and in Totals folder thanks
Thanks!
this mod isn't working for me, HELP
this mod is awsom
great cant wait to get it on meh comp and play ´SC4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!5

This is how to install it *COPIED FROM README, GIVE CREATOR CREDIT*

Copy one DAT file (either from the "Suppress or Max Out" folder) of each wealth level (R$$, Cs$$$, I-HT, etc) of each RCI type to /SC4/Plugins/RadicalOne Mods/Demand Mod. (Please put it in exactly that structure so future updates can find the file.)
Then take note of how many "max out" DATs you used for each category of RCI (Co, I, etc). Pick the corresponding DATs (one for each category) out of the "Totals" folder and copy it to /SC4/Plugins/RadicalOne

Or better yet click the "Ctrl" and "x" button simultaneously and when a tab comes out of the top right hand corner of your computer wright (without the " ) "howdryiam".
I used to have this mod when I did not know about the Colossal Addon Mod (CAM) but I'm using this with the CAM and the R$$$ and Co$$$ Maxed or Total does not work, actually it suppresses it. It is incompatible with the CAM. :(
It brings demand to zero

Yes, I had the same problem. All my demand went to zero and I followed the exact steps to get it installed. No one has given anyone an answer with this problem...please help! :D

Dear god, i love this mod! Nothing but R$$$, R$$, C$$$, and C$$ are building, and none of those little slum places that make the city look bad. Thank you so much, thaaank you!
Youre good at this 5 out of 5 from me
thanks
Wow looks nice. ill take it !
I installed this mod but don't know how to use it. How do you use it?
Works perfectly. 5/5!
installing is to complicated MAKE IT SIMPLE IT SHOULDNT BE THAT CONFUSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mar 09, 2012 - 06:04 PM
2/5--Should be more fine-grained. As I understand it (from the readme), one must either max out or suppress every possible growth category--it is not possible to (say) max out agriculture alone and leave the rest at standard behavior. If my understanding is correct, then this is a serious shortcoming.

Mar 15, 2012 - 04:34 PM
Just to point out: this mod seems to be incompatible with RalphaelNinja's Crime Doesn't Pay mod.
