This mod is to unlock the disasters the easy way, just place one wind power plant and it will unlock all the disasters. No need for addon modules just the standard wind power plant. Have fun.

Just place the package in SimCity\SimCityData

    Working on that but not that easy to do unfortunatly, but what I suggest is start a new region, plop just the wind power plant, it will unlock all the disasters and then just abandon the region it will keep the disasters unlocked for that server.

    You need to make a regular game first, place the wind power plant that will instantly unlock all disasters, then you can abandon that region right after and play a sandbox game with still all disasters unlocked, you only need to unlock once per server

    Just checked it and still working for 1.8 so no idea what you did wrong, but make sure to do the following, make a NORMAL and NOT Sandbox game, build a small road and place a regular Wind Farm, you should then get a few achievement popups and then all disasters are unlocked.

    Oh. I was trying it on sandbox. Do you think you can find a way to get it to work for that mode? I don't really feel like destroying a city that I actually put genuine effort into building, which is why I would prefer Sandbox.

    No need to destroy anything just make a new region, a city and make one small road, place the wind power plant, unlock the disasters and abandon that region, 2 minutes work.

    Wait a second... since this mod works by making all disaster achievements be activated by the placing of a wind farm... doesn't this mean that EA could call it cheating? :|

    Not sure this could really be considered cheating, since the only gameplay mechanics it allows that shouldn't be are related to destroying your own cities.

    btw who cares ? It's EA that enforced an online mode that most players don't want... They pretend to care about what customers want, and customers want modding... If they're unhappy about people modding their game, they should either a) provide an offline mode so ppl can mod it without affecting online players or b) publish the game for some closed-environement machine. A console for exemple.

    Let EA start the ban waves which they are already taunting about... The only thing it'll do is shorten the delay before the community gets what it wants: a full offline mode :P and when that happen, all their drm enforcing efforts will be ruined. I'm not sure they'd want to take that risk, seing how basic are the server-interactions... Unless they greatly underestimate the skills of the community.

    I doubt Maxis really cares about online cheating, this isn't a competitive multiplayer game but more of a social online game for the purpose of sharing regions with other players.

    This mod doesn't provide advantages over other players and disasters don't pass over through other servers, and Maxis didn't even bother unlocking it for sandbox.

    Haha, no worries. Guess you mean to start a new city as normal, then in another new city to work the mod. :D

     

    Edit:

    Tried that way, still doesn't want to work :(

    Edit 2:

    Nevermind, got what you said, need to start a city in a non-sandbox region to unlock. Basically I'm an idiot! Thanks :D
