Hi all, I have build a train rail from 2 stations but there is no train appear on the rail. How come? What I did wrong? I build the rail and at the end of it, I build a station. That all I done and nothing on the rail except the little green thing, I guess is the maintenace. Little help please. Thank you

Welcome to Simtropolis!

If you have the Rush Hour expansion pack or the Deluxe version of the game (Same thing), try checking the pathes to see if the train is being used. Click the question mark with the little symbol by it (Sorry, I forgot what the symbol is, I know it's there though) and then click on the rail road. It should then tell you how many people are using that train route. If there is no one using it, then that may be why you don't see any trains. If sims are taking the train, then there shouldn't be anything wrong with your game. Try speeding up time or driving the train yourself to get the train to appear.

Let us know if this works!

Hope that Helps!

Make sure you've got multiple stations in residential neighborhoods, and that they're all connected. Having them lead to neighboring cities doesn't hurt either. And if you really want to force the train, make it the only thing connecting the sims and their places of work (i.e. build an enclosed residential section and an enclosed industrial section a few tiles apart, connected only by the tracks and a few stations)

    Thank you! It works... maybe my city was none of traffic and my sims decide to take car 3.gif

    I have another qestion concerning shop. I had downloaded some shop pack from simgoober and in the picture I can see the little parking out of the shop, example the "Plop A Shop Pack 4". When I went in my sim city games, I build the shop and I can't see the parking and there only grass and the parking lights. Do I need any add-on or another file for this, if yes which files? Thanks

    Sounds like you are missing dependencies.  Check the readme that came with SimGoober's pack and there should be a list of dependency files (needed files in order for the shops to look correct).  Download the dependencies that are listed (either from here on the STEX, if you can find them, or from sc4devotion's LEX).  Install those files according to the instructions, and then you should be good to go.

    There is no readme in that package. Do you know the file name?

    Here's the list of  dependencies that I found to go with that pack:

    BSC PEG Texture Pack Vol 01 (Pegasus)

    Cerulean Textures V101

    BSC Texture Pack Vol1 (Geoffhaw)

    BSC Texture Pack Vol2 (Geoffhaw)

    BSC Texture Pack Vol3 (Geoffhaw)

    BSC Texture Pack Vol4 (Geoffhaw)

    Some links may be broken as it's a pretty old pack, but now at least you have the names of the texture packs used.  Hope this helps4.gif

    Take a look HERE You will have to be registered there. Click the "banner" with the brownboxes on it and you will link to a list that is pretty up to date. There is a copy on ST too I think.. you can search "dependency" on the STEX and it will be near the top of the list by Diggis. I don't know if he updates it here.

    All of the BSC textures have been rolled into megapacks over on CSXLEX on SC4Devotion. I believe there is a cerulean megapack too, but you need to check that out too
