because the land is so small, a good mod would be to double/tribble the amount of water, sewage, garbage and recycling those plants can handle.

I really hate to do this and give all the credit to someone else, but here it is.  Why can't someone make a simple move tool/button in the game.  I really don't like demoing a building just to move it over a few spaces to even things up.  This tool would come in handy when you are upgrading from street to avenue and you simply move all the effected buildings to another site and plop the avenue and as Kelly Bundy would say "vi-ola" your done.

I would really love a mod that consists of road guide lines between 2 or 4 line roads and avenues. Why Maxis never implemented something like this, is beyond me.

 

Also a mod that has trees on all roads would be nice.

 

I really like the mod of that Streetcar bridge. Will you be so kind as to create something like that for the trains too?

 

Thank you. :)

So I have found it annoying to have to ensure my parks have a road connection. Is it possible to make an empty space filler (like the park tool in CitiesXL) so un-built areas can look like they are a mowed lawn, or a plaza area. These areas don't have to count as parks, but just something to make empty areas look nice. thanks.

 

I wanted to do something like this too, so what I did is I put a small park by the road, edited it out so that I added, say, a couple rows of tress to where I wanted to put a pond, then demolished the rows of trees. Later I added university pedestrian paths to give the large "park" the feel I wanted. It actually turned out nice!

Do you have still the "Parks on Pedestrian" Mod? Could you send a copy to me? I can't find it on Simtropolis...

 

I didn't use that mod. I simply add a park, expanded it, removed all the expansions except the one I wanted to keep, and drew a road around the park. I could make a youtube video if you want more clarification. Also, apologies for taking a couple months to respond.

Hey! So one of my favorite features of SimCity 2013 is the University, but I feel a bit limited with it. Honestly, I'd love to be able to add awesome features specific to the university, such as sports stadiums and different styles of dormitories. Also, I'd love it if the roads that are available in the edit menu for universities doubled as areas to put commercial zoning, in order to create the pedestrian shopping centers seen at all college campuses. All in all, my ultimate goal would be to build the classic American state university in SimCity. Thanks.

Does anyone know of a MOD that replaces those 'road side attractions' we got in update 9, with something more realistic?

 

I like the idea of these smaller touristic locations but maybe these would be more fun to use if say: the Giant Ball of Yarn is replaced with a Lighthouse, and Dolly the Lama replaced with a historic monument like a ruin or historic castle or something like that.

 

Would be great if someone would pick this up. I've seen some wonderfull mods already, good work!

I play a lot in sandbox mode.  Currently, the city hall and resource HQ's are fully upgraded, but I think it would be cool to chose from all the building options rather then the fully upgraded ones.  For example, in some cities, I'd rather not use the upgraded city hall building and would rather use the town hall.  Would love this if it's possible.

I love making high wealth, medium wealth, and low wealth only cities. The problem is that i have to put down a ton of parks to get the right wealth, or if the wealth is too low, build something else there, and if the wealth is too high, i put industry. Could someone make wealth cheats like alt+1 is the whole city is low, and its stays like that, until you do alt+1 again. Same with alt+2  and alt+3 which should do medium wealth and high wealth, respectively.

Another option would be the ability to zone the different wealth levels. That would be handy.

I have to laugh about your mod wishes. Till Maxis won't release Update 10 and the offline mode, the mods you want aren't possible yet. I would begin requesting mods, which intervene the game mechanics, when the offline mode is released. But for now they aren't posiible, they would cause a rollback after the other.

I'm talking to everyone who want's mods like: bigger maps, a mod wich adds a cheat, ones which changes the upgrade options in sandbox, new buildings for the university and so on. I just ment they aren't makeable YET. But I'm sure with the offline mode it wont be a problem.

Building Mod Request  -  Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic Cauldron

 

 

If this can be created, it could be a monument or futuristic park as it really has that CoT feel. I think it would fit nicely with the other futurised building. Also, if it had the flame coming from the top, that would be awesome.

 

I understand that there is the issue of copyright & I don't even begin to understand the complexity of creating something along these lines, but if it could be done, great!

I'm sure some of these have been posted but I'll do this anyway.

Some things I think would be cool to see are:

Piers
Marinas
One way roads and also the ability to have elevated intersections 
Someone should design the space needle for a landmark

Hi modders. I am a Simcity player from Norway and it would be pretty cool if someone could make
the police car, fire truck and the amulance have the same look like in Norway. 

Norwegian ambulance: http://puu.sh/7nhMz.jpg
Norwgian fire truck: http://puu.sh/7nhSn.jpg
Norwegian police car: http://puu.sh/7ni2b.jpg
Another police car: http://puu.sh/7ni1w.jpg
More police cars: http://goo.gl/rxkGVd

Could either someone aid me in the creation of, or create if for me if it's 'rather simple'.

 

 

I want the road type that you gain from this mod;

 

to also carry service trafic, like garbage, firetruck, ambulance, police.

 

 

 

Is this possible?

 

 

 

I am asking, because this mod;

 

No longer functions as intended.

I would like a mod to add more landmarks (Burj Dubai, the New World Trade Center, ETC.). Maybe Farming as well. In another game, it has a thing where you need to set up farms to support your city with food. i have an idea where you can set up a farming city, then use that to support food for other cities. Just an idea, saying I have no clue how hard it is to make mods.
