Left problem...

The traffic in my game drives on the left side of the road. Is there anyway I can change it (either by mod or re-installing)?

I play on SimCity 4 Deluxe which I bought from Amazon.co.uk (the British version of Amazon.com).

Does anybody know: 1) how this happened (did the game developers switch it?); and, 2) how can I change it so traffic drives on the right (e.g. with mods)?

It's really frustrating having road markings for driving on the right and seeing the traffic potter about on the left...

Btw - great site you guys have here! I'll be making sure to get more involved, especially in CJ's - love those!

The game was made with different versions to be used in different parts of the world. It might be possible for you to change the driving side of the game. You can try looking through this tutorial to see if you can make the changes necessary to change your game.

In any case, I am sure it works for you.

    Thanks for this, guys! I've had to improvise on some of the instructions though (e.g. my SimCity 4 folder was under "apps" rather than "Maxis" for some reason), but hopefully it works. I won't know until I get home and the game either works or ... doesn't.

    Thanks again though everyone! Very friendly forum! :)
