PEG Hydroelectric Dam 1.1

... (cont) The weak point in well constructed dams is not the dam itself... but the rock/soil its anchored to. The outward convex channels the energy & pressure to the middle of the dam and away from those weak points.

PEG, you're the man. Thanks, -ndh

Wow, i can only say it's a Dam great lot! ;)

Bloomin' Hell! I never thought it would be possible! You have outdone yourself this time Peg! 10000000000000/10

Once again, excellent job of providing to the community something that should have been included in the game. Great work! 10

The only problem I have with it are that the textures are not of the best quality and that it is hard to plop...:S

dev: Yeah, you've mentioned twice now that you don't know how to plop it. Its really very simple (just like RTK3 lots) and the readme file contains good instructions on how to do it. If you're still having problems, log onto the support site where there are quite a few folk that can help you out.

what if I don't want to install the PEG 24/7 mod?

Wow, it sure looks good! It adds another measure of realism to Simcity.

Hey - I love your stream kit too!!! And i missed this hydro plant since last time i played SC2000 ....;-) :-D

awesome work, great job!!! 10/10

xklzdlk/dsfl; Who would rate this lower than a 10...honestly.

I thought it was impossible to do.I was wrong.The curve of the damwalls is supposed to be the contrary.

Haha--- yeah, I was just gonna make the same comment as gladiator-- the dam should curve inwards upstream. The way it is now it would snap like a twig because of the high bending moment in the centre. Oh well.

6459978: If you had read the comments above, you'd see that's incorrect. Its modeled after a real-world 'gravity' dam. Different principle than the high/thin wall dams like Hoover.

At long last! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

One of the most inventive and visually interesting lots i have yet seen. Great work Peg, as always.

Incredible work PEG!!!!

very nice

Finally a dam!

** PLEASE NOTE - There is a bug in the monthly budgeting aspect of the dam. Keep an eye on the Local Funding slider control in the Dam's UI. The game may force the local funding down after the lot is plopped or after additional power plants are added. An update will be forth coming.

PEG, This is simply FANTASTIC... I live in Canada where Hydro Power is common, and I've waited a long time for a REALISTIC Hydroelectric Dam. This is a DAM good thing.....pun intended :-)

Fantastic Thanx

** UPDATE NOTICE - This file has been updated to correct funding & costs issues. The new version also acts as a water source & increases efficency of nearby water pumps... like fresh water sources did in earlier SC4 versions. Be sure to DELETE THE PREVIOUS VERSION'S FOLDER.

Exellent!! However one concern.. for those looking fo realism. The dam curves the wrong way. It is no where near the size of Hoover Dam, but look at that one. See how that one curves. This is for structural reason. Either than that, good job.
