Game not working?

[joeymozzer 0]

 I have several issues, first off when i play on cheetah mode my game takes atleast 1-3 minutes to move on to the next day.

second even though my "R" demand is high, nobody seems to move in. any ideas why?

What are your system specs. The fastest speed is supposed to be the one where the computer is pushed without limit. But with weak system specs I have seen the game fall flat on its face. Also in large cities or with many plug-ins the game can crawl at times.

Demand may be high so people should be moving in. But double-click the demand graph and see exactly which level of residential is in demand. You could be zoning all low residential but have high residential in demand.

Have you checked to make sure you have the basics. For example, Power, Education, Somewhere to work.

And if you can, posting a screenshot would make solving your problem easier for us.

yea all my basics are set. what about the cheetah mode being slow to progress? how do i post a screetshot? i know how to take them just not how to post them.

thanks

oh ok i havent checked type of demand needed. as far as specs. this happened even b4 installing any plugins

Specs;

Imac 8.1

2.66 GHZ

intel core 2 duo

its a fairly new MAC, im not sure if you need other specs. im really new to macs

Well, first you should read this article from the 'Omnibus of Knowledge' on how to post images. Just skip down to the part of the tutorial where it tells you how to "Upload Pictures"

Another question, How big have you zoned the residential areas? 1x1^(square) 1x2 1x3 ect...

And I don't think that we need your computer specs, even though unityx asked for them, this is more of a game issue.

the zone is fairly large (close to 4x6) or so, ive been zoning my blocks around that range. is there a tutorial on how to build realistic elevated rail? ive tried using the downloaded ones but they dont seem to fit

We do really need a picture or else we cant' really help you that out that much....

And no, I do not know of any Elevated rail tutorials.
