About This File

This is a map of the a large portion of the San Francisco Bay Area. It's scaled accurately. It's HUGE, at 80 by 72 km. Have fun!

Region Census would not let me take a shot of the rendered region, so I apologize for the lack thereof. I tried to show a pretty universal color scheme for what the map will look like.

 

 

Instructions: (VERY important note below)

 

 

 

 

If you don't have my plugins pack, download it here.

1) Place the 1500m.dat plugin in your plugins folder, and remove any other height mod plugins... thanks to Andy80586 and lookinin for helping me create the mods.
2) Create a new folder called San Francisco Bay in your ..My Documents/SimCity 4/Regions directory.
3) Download the config.bmp file and place it in the new folder
4) Download the SanFrancisco1500.jpg file and remember where you downloaded it to.
5) Run your SimCity 4 game
6) Open the San Francisco Bay Region
7) On your keyboard, press and hold down 'ctrl' + 'alt' + 'shift' + 'r'--this should bring up a dialogue box
8) Browse to the folder that you downloaded SanFrancisco1500.jpg to, find "SanFrancisco1500.jpg", and open this file.
9) This should start the rendering. BE PATIENT. The region is extremely large. This will likely take between 1.5 and 4 hours.
10) Have fun!

LOL... yeah, people seem to request these extemely large regions not realizing just how huge they'll be. But, if you have a computer that can handle it, more power to you! Thanks for the comments!

Ahh, Thanks so much! This is an awesome map for my city. But isn't 1.5 to 4 hours quite a different? Lol. It'll probably take me 2 hours. I have a Windows Media '05.

Um, I can't even render it because the demensions are wrong. MAKE SURE the maps demension are correct please. This is very annoying.

The dimensions are definately not wrong, as I rendered it myself. It is possibly an incorrectly placed config.bmp, or a corrupted config.bmp file that is giving you problems.

I tried rendering this and all I got were the tippy tops of the mountains. It's huge, but it didn't render correctly for me either.

Can't render the map - message says "Region Generation Error. Region Bitmap size is incorrect --- 0x0. Should be 5121x4609." Anyone else encountered this problem and what is the solution?

Hi

 

Just rendered this map. It seems the middle of the bay and the coastline is just blank no water or anything.

Tried using mapper 2013 to fix empty spots but to no avail!! It wouldn't consider saving it.

 

Looks a little silly with no water in the bay or coastline.

 

Tried to render this 3 times but that didn't work either.

 

Any thoughts????
