    @crazykid4simcity: hey nice to see you check in 4.gif we didnt get all the colors replaced yet and the pedestrians are still walking too. We have Beta 3 about to be released shortly with 175 new BATs, new transports and mods 4.gif 

    @Evillions: good news 4.gif if you do make new BATs, please render in normal mode. All the other BATs in SimMars are not Darknite and it would look strange

    UPDATES:

    The installer and launcher are being programmed at the moment, we're in the middle of that and are sorting it out as we speak ;-)

    and a last minute addition: Small Spaceport

    I just heard about this incredible mod and had to check it out! Your work has exceeded my every expectation! I cannot wait to try this out (I'm going to wait for the beta 3 release).

    Amazing work to all those involved. I will be watching SimMar's progress very closely!

    Just to keep you guys in the loop: the launcher needed a revision to prevent an issue that occured when SimCity was freshly installed and never played and then SimMars was launched. The revised file is being tested at the moment.

    I have an idea. After the release of SimMars Beta 3, I'm going to make a video about this mod and uploading to YouTube :-)

    "If you try to please everybody, you often times end up pleasing nobody, especially yourself. When somebody offers to do a favor for free, like making a mod for SimCity 4, you shouldn't be overly critical of something generously given to you. In other words, you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth." - Twilight Sparkle after playing SimCity

    "Being a mayor or a content creator for SimCity 4 is a heavy responsibility, Patrick. Each city and each custom content is like a child, and must be treated as such." - SpongeBob Squarepants after playing SimCity

    "Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible." - Frank Zappa

    is there any way to get this on megaupload or mediafire? I don't have internet at home, and the site you guys uploaded to is blocked by the library here.

    Hot Chocolate -- my guess would be that you already have passed the development phase for agriculture. Even if demand is high, nothing develops in agriculture after a point. If you really want the farms, I use the ExtraCheats.dll and RCI Demand mod to force development. I've never had a problem with either one.

    I'll show some screenies of my city later. For now, I'm happy with the results! Who made that one R$$$ that has a curved roof and contains a skywalk? Whoever made it, I REALLY ADMIRE THEIR BATING SKILLS!

    We got a nice news feature at FileFront  9.gif

    And a mention on this page too

    We're doing up  Beta 3.01 at the moment, with the Mars Face fix included and the Steam issue resolved. Fingers crossed X
