Yes I do. You have to if you're going to have a successful city as many of the things you need can't coexist, e.g. Elites and Heavy Industry. (There are some ways around this, but this is how the game was designed to work).

In terms of how to trade, I doubt I could describe it better than the game's manual does, but if you're having trouble with the manual, the I imagine that it is also covered in the "user manual" or "hints and tips" threads at the top of this forum.

What the heck did you write?

LOL. OP did apologise for his English - looked at his profile and he's from Denmark, so it's far from his first language!

Basically, do people use the trade system and if so, how does one actually do that?

Answers: Yes and read the manual.

haha.
i find it pretty hard to use the original solo trading system; although what is harder is making a completely self-sufficient city.

moaku's sandbox mod (i believe) allows you to set the price that omnicorp will buy and seel resources. if you don't want to worry about money, then you can always set the omni's sell price to low and omni's buy price to high. so you just buy from them at a low price and sell it for a profit. the problem comes later when you run out of transportation city-links

to fix that, you can add jeremy12's more city links mod which decreases the amount of "purple" that a newly plopped city link takes away.

also, there are some other cheats like my money bank building which gives you a ton of money withouth doing the above buy/sell steps. i was also thinking about making a couple more cheat mods that would give you a bunch of freight and passenger points, and one to max out your citizens satisfaction levels - so they'll never be sad. another mod could be that buildings would never or rarely go bankrupt. hmm...just some ideas.

    You can also find more mods in the mod section here or here.

    Remember that some mods don't work well with others; and could cause duplicates. Namely most of the latest buildings that povis123 and karel53 unlocked are now included in the Unlocker Mod.

    The main mods that I recommend is the CXL Unlocker Mod v2 (and the hotfix below it) and the Full Sandbox for SIngle Player mod (which is neccessary for the Unlocker mod to work).

    Other fun ones that I like are the New Farms and New Plazas, Bulldozer Mod Extra Terraforming, Tree Mod, and any of Skimbo's road texture mods.

    For graphics, I'd suggest Light replacement mod, Higher (or Highest) VeryLow Settings mod, and maybe the Cameramod (although if your mouse is too sensitive you may not like it....however there is a way to easily mod that as well --- to make the mouse less sensitive; that's what i did for myself.)

    There is also a mod request forum. If you have any idea or requests please ask!!

    OK, now I can help. CitiesXL runs on Windows 7. It even runs on Windows 7 64 bit. Moaku's mod allows you to set the buy and sell price of Omnicorp so you need not worry about trade as much.
