Project Orion - 3k Extended Boundary 1.0 Beta

Wow, amazing mod. Haha, so many grand mods all at ones. I especially love to follow the streetcars and buses all through the region. It's just like real. :)

yes.. you must have udons installed for this extension to work

agents are the best for 1:1 cause and effect modeling .. its a digital model play set with cause and effect which I enjoy myself...

OOooowwww yyeeaaahhh! :D

 

Thank you sooo much XoXiDe!!

Thank you so much Oppie!!

Thank you so Much ProcsKalone!!

 

and thank you Yayie to reupload the files!

 

This project is awesome! Please, continue it, this is so promising!

All this time to improve the game and share it to the community, big up for you all!

 

I play SimCity since the beginning, and some bugs in the mods are completely forgiveable (I remember the numbers of crashes when I used to

put the tramway avenue in SC4 xD), regards to the time, the thinking of the project, the time to find solutions.... and all of that for free?

 

The community yet doesn't seem to account for all time spent in modding in general, and just that is precious.

 

BIG THANKS TO YOU THREE!

:D

 

PS: sorry for my english.... I'm... french... so ... languages....... :/

So, a very little feedback...

 

AWESOME!!!!!!

Not an example but, I installed the mod directly, I loaded a city I created yesterday, and NO PROBLEM, all is working fine!

I have plenty of mods installed and no bug revealed yet!

 

It's a real pleasure to see that we haven't hoped for nothing!

 

 

Clearly great job, by the best team!

Thank you again :D

xoxide, I can build roads just fine, I just can't always plot stuff on them or zone RCI on them.

Do a screenshot, perhaps we could see what's wrong on your side.

I would like to thank /u/Desarth from Reddit for the use of his images in showcasing Extended Boundary.  Its a wonderful testament to what can be down effort and creativity with various tools. I thank him personally for allowing me to use his images with this mod.

which side you plop on out of the 4 sides will change depending on what is anchor

Excellent ^_^

Nice Mod my friend Yajie , if you want i create mod say me how do in PM thanks ^^

Now that I have been using the mod for 24 hours, it is awesome, I cant thank you guys enough. I even managed to build on the other side of the freeway using skyes regional freeway to join it to the main city. Slight niggle with putting down police fire and medical near low wealth as it influences the area that gets converted to medium wealth more. I sorted that in the end by building them away. This is a completely different game now, for the better may I say. Once again THANKYOU.

Xoxide and the team make this happen, I just amaze how they figure out something like this to be made possible. Have fun. I haven't been able to play due to real life work that piling up out of nowhere. I have plans for other mods in near future. stay tune.

Hi All,

 

I think I have installed all 3 packages correctly and when follow instructions above I am successful at getting larger city borders, however is anyone else having troubles seeing the road icons in the roads menu for the new roads that come with the packages above. I have my normal SC2103 road icons, I also have about 12 or so icons with a question mark in a clear box (no picture included) then I have another lot of what appear to be the normal roads again. When I select and draw with anyone of the 12 icons with a question mark no picture all I get is a dirt road.

 

Are these meant to be the regional streets / regional UDon I am meant to be seeing and able to select.

 

If not what are they? And where can I find the regional streets and UDon.

 

Thanks for any help

Hi there, I think you have to install the actual UDoN mod which is not included with Orion. Then you will be able to see and use both the city and regional streets.

Hope it works for you!

@bobp that was kind of the idea.. we know as a group of people in devtest and working on all the community sites how much people wanted this even if it was not perfect.  So your welcome.  I have seen some pretty amazing stuff as a result even to the point where it surprised myself just how much more of a CITY these creations look like and they are function even if not perfect.

 

Its nice to see people enjoying the tools and mods and creating works of working art.  Really wish you would start posting your showcases so others can enjoy what you have created as well .. THATS TO EVERYONE not just you bobp :)

 

But your welcome.  Think the greatest gift to our work is to see the community come together and be somewhat upbeat and happy about the game again after such a long 1.5 year journey as I put it.

@Dvestris Yes you must install UDoN's first to use the paths.  Yayie I have asked him to add a link in this post with some notes so people realize they must have the mod loaded to be able to use the modified tools outside the normal 2k limits.

Can you tell me why I can't zone outside the 'original box' ?... What am I missing?

I think you need regional roads for that.

 

 

• Yes you can zone residential, commercial, industrial outside, in one condition, you need connect the tile's original roads with the regional roads.

 

Can anyone explain to a semi-noob what this means, in more detail? Or explain like I'm five? I need to draw a road, using which road tools, from where to where? I seem to have everything connected up including multiple connections to the regional highway, but I cannot zone or plop anything besides BOC.

I can't get it to work..

Is it because I'm playing on cape trinity?

 

(EDIT)

 

Nope, just checked.

Its expanded the city boundary, I'm able to place roads from the Regional Streets Mod..

But then I can't place any zones or buildings on any strip of road outside of the default game box!!

It does not even show up on the map when I'm placing buildings that show the map in white with resources :(

 

Please help!!!!! I NEEEED this mod to work for me otherwise my city will fail miserably !! :(

Once you claim a city, you may get an avenue within the tile, which you'll get a message "draw a road from the highway". That avenue MUST be CONNECTED to the regional roads that stretched out from the default city tile in order to zone RCI buildings. Depending on the map tile you on, you may zone North and East or West and South or the other way around.

white with resources? What building that you referring to?

@pixfire private me if your still having issues I will help you

I'm not sure if this is intentional, probably a bug, but playing in a Cape Trinity city box (Clearwater) although the borders have increased the camera is fixed at a certain point and you can't move north. Moving south is fine.

@coldmoney I would have to look at the specific map myself .. I will try to do so this weekend.

Since when you guys released this mod I've been trying to install, but I can never even the original boundary of the city to expand! 

I downloaded all the necessary mods (I'm sure of it) 

I installed them all in the folder SimCityData 

I enter the game, create the city, leave the game, restart the game, go into the city and nothing happens. 

The city limit is unchanged. 

What am I doing wrong?
