I don't know how to create a Hurricane Eye disaster mod for SimCity 4 myself, but it can be fantasy.

I don't think its possible...

you may have to mess with the EXE, which is illegal and can ruin your game...

I may be wrong but I've only heard once of someone creating a disaster and it was a fraud...

Oh, I'm quite certain it's possible. Buildings are built on a footprint, right? All a disaster does is remove the building and replace it with rubble the same size as the footprint. Disasters are suprisingly simple. Tornadoes do this in a path, fires in a single spot, etc.

I would imagine that a SC4 lot could be given the properties of a disaster. Say it would turn the tiles within a 500 meter radius into these "rubble footprints". This could just be scaled up to destroy the entire city.

It could probably be done with the Ilive reader, but as Aro0w said, it would be risky to your system, game, and could get you in legal troubles. It wouldn't be a job for the lighthearted or anyone who doesn't understand the full workings of a modding program.

So yes, it could be done, as far as I know. But it's one of those things that's simple, yet so difficult. So I wouldn't go around asking people to try and make it.

    Tony, as said in your previous topics, new disasters are IMPOSSIBLE to create. This is because it involves changing the exe file, which is illegal. Please stop asking if it is possible because it is not.
