And here I thought Beavis and Butthead running a city was pushing it!

Ah yes, low density commercial, just what I need :3

[airman15 4,111]

It is as long as your city planners adopted Taiwanese zoning standards!

All the traffic disappeared?

[redfox85 659]

@Haljackey Hah - it looks like one of my cities (although mine are devoid because of magical parks with jobs that make the highways and roads... useless).

Honestly, I do not think this link can really help you. Because it seems that there is a problem with the game With 60,000 vehicles, it is certain that they must appear.

It was just a fluke, hence the 'oddity'. Reloading the game, traffic's back.

I'd prefer the open road though

Note that I do have a plan to widen this highway to 10 lanes and have 2 dedicated exit lanes here to deal with the traffic. Coming soon to the Show Us What You're Working On and Interchanges threads.

Here's one I haven't seen yet in all the 13+ years I've been playing sc4....notice where the demand bars are?  A little out of place wouldn't you say?

Looks like a football goal post with a very narrow crossbar.

That was after about 12 straight hours of game play.  I finally had to save and shut the game down, then turn the 'puter off for the night.

Wait, so it's possible to modify the advisors? I can't check the file my myself, but I'd love that idea. If it's possible, we could even replace the advisors with something else.

Like this:

Or this!:

Using the standard cheats you can change the advisers  to Llama heads.  DollyLlama changes the faces of the advisers to llamas.  I just looked at the 'town planner.dat' file with iReader, its not a straightforward graphic.  I also compared it with  a different set of advisers that comes with an Asian SKU for the game with Asian advisers, even more difficult to figure out how the graphics work.   I agree it would be fun to make our own, but looks like a challenge to program.    Press CTRL + X to open the standard cheat window, then enter DollyLlama.   The Llamas may not appear immediately, so click out and back in to the adviser menu to see them.   NOTE: Both 'advisor' and 'adviser' are correct spelling, same meaning.

Maxis and their Llama hagup.... XD

[matias93 7,535]

Those are UV maps, just like the ones used for the automatas, so the method should be exactly the same. Also, I know for sure that the textures for the normal advisors are on the game DAT files, so they are easily moddable.

The only restriction is that the movable model of the talking head is already there, so you'll need to adjust the new texture to it. For the ponies, I guess that the llama heads would be much more adequate...

Introducing the checkerboard orchard layout.

More creative farming:

(And no, I'm not using iLive's Reader or modding in any way. It's a game glitch/feature I've discovered.)

Heheh  -  Maybe it's time you tried out SPAM

(I went from not really liking agriculture to dedicating a whole section of my region  entirely to farming )

@CorinaMarie: Well, that one is easy: truck drives past, has to stop, and the barrier closes right between cab and trailer (or cargo, respectively).

@Joey Auburn: One word comes to mind for the last picture: WHEEEEE!

Sims lawn mowing on pavement and vehicles plus a couple of bonus images.

Did you have to add schools to up their EQ so they could read the sign?

[Scarton 57]

@rivit &  @Joey Auburn: #RecursiveNews

That would make an amusing addition to the game's news scroll.

[matias93 7,535]

Well, I think we now know how is that Hanjin had to file for bankruptcy...

That's actually how you're supposed to do it, use both lanes all the way up to the merge

Might have to install some wildlife crossing signs

These walls should help
