For your mods and downloads, you should unzip the files to MyDocuments/SimCity4/Plugins. This should make them work in game, but make sure there are no installers or sub-zip folder. If this is the case, run the installer, and unzip the sub folders.

For a successful city, well thats too broad a question to answer in one post, but I will direct you to the Omnibus. See the button for it at the top menu between STEX Collections and Modds and Downloads.

Any further questions don't hesitate to send me a Private Message (PM).

The key for a successful city is:

Be creative

Have Good Fire, Police, Medical coverage

High Desirability

Good Education

If you have those, I dont see why you want have one. Also, dont forget to put in some recreational buildings.

    Youre are missing dependancies. After you click the picture to download look in the window that pops up there should be a list of dependancies you will need for the item to work, if its not there should be a readme or HTMl document with the list. Youll need to download the items on the list. Sometimes the file will have no dependancies sometimes the uploader forgets something.
