Thanks ldvger.

Your instructions noted on the 3/19/09 date simplied the matter greatly in getting this great tool to work for me.  And I agree in an earlier comment you may have posted on this thread that the various techno terms that are so easily thrown around in this forum makes it unneccesarily complicated for many.  Sometimes I feel the need for a thesaurus to just get thru all the lingo-mumbo-jumbo spewed throughout this forum.

That being said, for anyone who is now just stumbling upon this tool creat by Buggil, which I feel opened an whole new phase of the Sim City development, when first introduced back in late 2006, go directly to Idvger's instructions posted on 3/19/09 to learn how to get this tool to work for you the first time.  Your life will feel a whole lot easier.

Thanks again.

I had the same concern about not getting the lingo here.  But this thread helped me out quite a bit:

No New Messages SC4-related Acronyms made Clear

Maybe you will find it helpful too.

Since the first post is virtually void of information, is it true that there's a feature on this where you can plop all the residential buildings? And if so, how do I do this?

Simple, you use the tool. Ctrl+X to bring up the cheat menu, right click on it, and select something along the lines of, "Plop all buildings." Be warned, make sure you have a LOT of RAM to make sure you don't crash the game. There is also a feature where you can plop any individual building, just like a normal ploppable. Oh, I just noticed the word residential. You can plop them, but people wont commute and may abandon. It's a part of the game that no one (as far as I know) can do anything about.

Hope this helps!

The cheats as revealed in this thread are indeed most helpful, and this especially includes the "ploppable buildings", and of course the infinite moolah. But what is desperately needed is a cheat that will permanently prevent the decay of these ploppable buildings, so that we don't have to play the simulation in constant "Pause" mode, so we can see cars and people moving about without the structures falling apart after a few seconds. If EA/Maxis could provide this for Sim Cities, we would really have something.

There is something like that, the Abandonment Dilapidation Modd by Ralphaelninja. The description and readme explain everything, but feel free to ask me if you have any problems!

Oh, and EA/Maxis have basically abandoned SimCity. If only there was a mod to prevent that!1.gif

Hope this helps!

Hey, Chptrk, way to go! The Abandonment Dilapidation Modd (ADM) works!

A few months ago for the hell of it I started playing Sim City 4 again (Rush Hour version) and I remembered that when I played it in the old days (2004?) I was somehow able to place any structure anywhere, using a cheat. I couldn't for the life of me remember how, though. It was definitely not the same cheat method used in this thread. The problem was that after I placed (plopped?) the buildings, and then ran the simulation in Rhino mode or Cheetah mode, the buildings just decayed in a matter of seconds. Now, with this building cheat, plus infinite moolah, and thanks to you and Raphaelninja and the ADM, the buildings don't decay, and I can watch the City's Sims and vehicles do their thing as though I were actually playing Mayor (which I don't do because I don't have the patience nor the inclination).

So, much thanks to you both for a great Modification. EA/Maxis should not have abandoned Sim City 4. IMHO, Sim City Societies was a disaster. I purchased it twice, a year apart, and it didn't work either time. It's obviously time for a Sim Cities 5, but until then, we still have SC4, and now we can create at will and roam at will, no longer confined to Pause Mode, without fear of dilapidation, decay, and decomposition.

Many thanks again. You made my day.

Hmm... I don't know anything about Macs, but maybe you should ask in the Mac forum page. Or try doing the Mac version of the right-click, what is it...umm...(I should know this it's all my school has32.gifbad school!) Oh, control click! Try doing that in the cheat menu.

First off, Welcome to Simtropolis! I do believe there is a list of what they do, I just don't know where to find it at the moment.46.gif Give me a minute and I'll go look. Until then, you could always go on cheatcc.com, they list some of the cheats and what they do.

Hope this helps!

Someone on the first page had a problem like that, but I'll see what I can do!

1) Is the Dll in your plugins folder directly? As in, it's not in a sub-folder, just right in the plugins folder?

2) Is it in the Documents path plugins folder, or the program files one? I don't know if it makes a difference, but I have mine in the program files path.

3) You are bringing up the cheat menu first, right? You have to press Crtl+X to bring up a cheat box in the top left of the screen, and right-click on that.

4) If all else fails, try deleting it from you computer and then redownloading it. That worked for me when it stopped working once.

Hope that helps!

Okay Igot it! This is so fun! I took the building plops code and got mad when any R$. R$$, R$$$ building I plopped down turned abandoned quick. ;( So I went and got the abandondment dilapidation modd. (Im sorry . It is in this thread a few pages back to download),,,,,, went back in and made sure I zoned the right size for the building (high density R or whatever) I was putting down for the lot . Pressed play then waited far a second. Then pressed pause and plopped the building on the zone and it still did not lose people! Yay! I ran the game for years to see if it would work and it does. (No workers though but still have people) Now I can make the huge ghettos with 7 elevens and all the nimbys I want!!! Ha! I have many concrete buildings, shotgun shacks and Marcy House projects and all the N.Y projects to build. Oh and by the way 15x5 or massive wastelands of R$! With so much more to do! We do not need Simcity 5. We can figure it out here. After 5 years of playing this game and it is still good! Ta Ta! I still havent seen a Burj Dubai grow in my cities yet, So let me plop 1...... Ha! Not bad for a $19.99 hobby. (not a game) My girl is so mad at me now! We should make a thread on how simcity messed up a job or a partner. I know it has happened to more than just mee! Ha!

Edit by tungston:

Sorry guys! Its not that simple. I have the modd where you can buy your mayor ratings and all of that good stuff installed. Plus you have to have enough jobs for the sims to have at first.. They will stay. But they will leave quick with no jobs. I plopped a few of sim goobers motel 8's. They have like 1900 C$ jobs. Then I zone , press play and let the game run. Then I plop C$ buildings over what I zoned or whatever is building there. I hit it with the magnifying glass to see what is going on. Then I delete the motels. They stay because they do not work. I tried with the Dubai building with no luck. It went abandoned quick and was just eye candy. It did not turn black because I had the abandonment modd. I still want to play with this more. This is fun! I do not need the the moolah because I have the money park so it is what it is. Have fun!

Edit by tungston:

I meant R$ buildings. Sorry!

Please use the edit function instead of sequential replies.

John Kirby: Yea, the only advice I could think of would be to buy a PC. 9.gif

Or, like I said, try posting in th Mac forums. They might be helpful there.

Maybe bother Zelgadis, he said something about this download way back on page 1, and I know he has a Mac.

Hope this Helps!

Hmm... Do you mean the link on the first page is broken? It seems to be. Here is a link to the download from the Stex. It's the same thing. I'll see if there is a way to fix that.

If you mean that the cheats themselves wont work for you, try reading some of the other posts for ideas. If that still doesn't work, let us know.
