No more boxes (cars)  1.0

About This File

Works with 2009 & 2011

Thanks for testing megabytesz

 

Fed up of boxes for cars, Grey silhouettes for people & empty roads when you zoom out?

 

Here is your solution, Cars are now visible as a car on the four nearest zoom levels and people are visible as people on the 3 nearest zoom levels!

 

Install

Download the file

Open the .zip using Explorer, WinZip, WinRar or 7zip (recomended)

Then just drop the .patch file in your Paks folder, default (C:\Program Files\Monte Cristo\Cities XL\Paks)

 

Tested and works with 1.1.0.457, not tested but should work with ALL graphics levels.

If your game barely runs on Very Low this mod may slow your game more.

 

Will not work with graphics levels mods e.g. GlobexCo's Super-High Graphic Settings.

Credit goes to GlobexCo for the idea, If your computer can eaisily handle the game on the High settings GlobexCo's Super-High Graphic Settings mod might be a better idea.

Didn't GlobexCo literally just do this? In fact, I believe his actually did more too. I guess this would be handy if you only wanted to change the cars. For anyone who is interested, check: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=24618

Well, GlobexCo's mod makes cars visible and buildings more detailed with high quality. Judging by the pic, this makes cars and pedestrians visible at all graphic levels. (Which doesn't mean that Globex's mod is bad, in fact I would download if I had a better graphics card)

This mod is quite different, since it removes boxes from all the quality settings... but it's clear you used my mod as starting point. And I can't see any credits... and your mod is also not compatible with mine! Please fix!

As hotChocolate and GlobexCo said this just changes Car and Peds, so this is better for computers that are a bit less powerful.

It doesn't work by me... Maybe because I have Sandbox patch in paks folder? My graphic level in game's options must be on low or? Please help

Thank you very much , exactly what i was looking for , i just dislike the grey boxes. I can run game on full graphics mode with some adeptations within my nvidia drivers itself for the game (ie. no AF and forced vsync disable). Confirmed to be working in Full Game CXL 2012 Steam downloaded version. :)<br>
