(1)  Why ONLY those two locations ??  Why NOT Game Stop??  Explain -- please?

(2)  Why only "Deluxe Edition"?  What's wrong with the expanded "Complete Edition"?  (See link below)

Don't be so impatient, I'm responding to the PM now :P

1) If you buy from a store, not that they are likely to have a copy, but it will be on disc, rather than a digital code.

2) Complete Edition is NOT SimCity 4, it's the newer SimCity (2013) release.

Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.

My apologies --

I haven't had an SC4 "fix" in almost four days -- I may be going into "withdrawal" !!! *:lol:

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed.  But they produced Michael Angelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, and The Renaissance.

In Switzerland, they had brotherly love and five hundred years of peace.  And what did that produce?

LOL, yeah I didn't think you'd be waiting for a sale somehow!

But I have to muddy the waters, because Steam will sell you an identical copy to GoG for just $5 since it's on sale right now:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/24780/SimCity_4_Deluxe_Edition/

But, that does mean using Steam's launcher.

We now return to our regularly scheduled program "Show us what you're working on", not to be confused with "Got a quick question" starring Bismarke, the pointy-helmet-wearing old walrus.

Progress on Stepford-

Stepford2.jpg.232faedaa719179e76dbd192048eadd2.jpg

No problem, Mate.  The purchase is downloading from GOG -- no strings attached to that copy.

And for this evening's performance, the part of Bismarck will be played by Harrison Ford -- since Curt Jurgens is dead.

Curd Jurgens?!!! I had more in mind Gert Fröbe, Marianne Sägebrecht or TV's beloved Sgt. Schultz, John Banner!

Preview of Kenmore from Stepford, a little closer-

Critiques are always welcome, good, bad or indifferent. I have no feelings to hurt.

Naaawwwww --- Curt Jurgens played a very Bismarck-like character in a move called "The Assassination Bureau" back in the late 60's -- Prussian saber dueling scar and all !!  If you haven't seen it -- give it a look -- worth watching.

Since @TheMurderousCricket (sorry for tagging you here, I forgot to tag you in the CJ entry:() asked me for help with making transitions between ploppable and in-game water, I made a special entry in my CJ Maxiland illustrating and explaining my personal way of doing this. I hope I can help you and other people reading this with that, although I really consider this quite a challenge every time I'm trying it. Below the link and some "advertisement pictures". Hope you like it.

Diana Rigg was smokin' and my favorite drunk Englishman, Ollie Reed. Anyone who could party with Keith Moon was alright in my book.

"Smokin" don't half cover it, Mate !!  

That woman was "full bore & 12 gauge"!

And Curd/Curt actually did play Bismarck in the BBC series "fall Of Eagles. 

"Who loves ya, baby?"  He's the only guy that was, possibly, badly cast for the  movie.

Should I make a Pho "King" Pack that includes ortho as well?

Pho king brilliant, Huskies. Please consider (for me??) ---Could we have one diagonal model with a jpeg sign from a real mom and pop noodle restaurant, maybe with some Asian writing? I would use the $#!t out of that 100%. Really cool pack so far and I love the idea!

No worries! I'm afraid I missed your last entry as well. >.< Had a few going-ons IRL and couldn't focus on the SimPassions, but I already bookmarked it!

Thank you for the excellent tutorial images! *:ohyes: A picture is worth a thousand words, I get it now! Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule and doing this.

I must say though that I feel guilty for asking, because I can see you've cooked up a really large transition-related CJ-entry and I didn't want to force anything like that. I can't even imagine for how much of the lost time I'm responsible... >.<

The "SimCity 4" vanilla Opera House is the most evil thing in existence. Avoid.

Nice stonewalls! For some reason, when I saw the zone with no direction arrows, I thought that this is SC3000. :D Only then did I realize that this is industry.

Gahhhh... too much happening lately! :D

By the way, my cars adapt well to the textures made by @kingofsimcity
