"Mom, why is my computer broken again?"

"Probably because of a car."

"Mom, why do we live on a highway?"

"The price was cheap."

"Mom, what happened to my bed?"

"Don't worry, it's on that freight truck."

"Along with the safe?"

"The safe? Oh sh-"

"Mom?" [pause] "Mom?" [longer pause] "Mo-AHHHHHHHHHHHHH..."

*Both were run over by cars*

[MrCinatit 30]

wonder what the commute time is from that apartment?

[born acorn 0]

U-Drive-it-thru!

[Aalox 0]

We couldn't buy out the owners of the apartment for our new Highway, so we are now renting the 3rd floor.

It must be an early attempt at those appartments in "Minority Report".

thats hell funny!

Lol, I tried U-drive-thru-it™
it works


The cars of the inhabitants of the appartment are parked below so I guess they just drive up the stairs if they wanna get to work
I also tried querying the building, which was obviously a bad idea because the game crashed to windows as soon as I moved the questionmark over that building
so no idea what their commute times are

Maybe you UK guys may remember this, but wasn't there an episode of "The Goodies" where they drove their house down the road?

"Eckie-Thump!"

here are a few stupid things a sim does.

My Sim Is Complaining That He Tried All Routes Possible But Guess How Far It Is To Work?

 

umm have you tried going right 2 times? i guess not.

 

i don't know how sims can be THAT STUPID!

I dunno... My sim complained that he couldn't find his place so close by... Changed from Depriesse's Diner to Library back and forth every five minutes!

Probably, the flaw lies in places who's occupied lots are like this:

Was this house built on quick sand?

[Aalox 0]

No. The orignial owners were very short.

Where did you find that mod, anyway? I've tried looking, and never found one.

[BarbulaM1 38]

Here is the terrian modd by teirusu for the arctic terrian. The people that lived in that house were solitary people.http://www.teirusu.net/Moddfiles/arcticterrain.zip

[Edman_123 11]

The link doesn't work...

The 2nd image is upside down but not edited except for reducing image size.

See here for Nvida software

This works with simcity4 windowed mode; havent tried it full screen yet...

Anyway the upside down city does kinda make sense. Look at the roads, vehicles and the baseball stadium seats and you can see why it looks confusing.

----------------

You're right. NVRotate is completely screwed up. I'm operating on it right now, and I'm baffled.

[Equinox 1,209]

Search for "Arctic Terrain Mod" up in the search box, and go back to the beginning of the thread and read until he posts the mod, a little ways down on the first page.  There is a link there.

Is it just me or are some of these screenshots really lame. I mean this is called 'fun screenshots'!

[Sykstring 0]

In reply to The Goodies. I haven't seen that in years. They had it on in Southern California in the eighties. What a great show. Would like the chance to see it again. Whenever I ask any of my friends about it, they look at me like I was crazy. Sorry to stray off-topic. Wow, this is probably my first post here.

Allthough the picture is dutch, it is the graph of my life expectancy for 1 year. I have no idea what i did, but it looks funny

[Skyfire 0]

Okay, we've seen plenty of lots up in the air, but this one just makes me laugh whenever I see it.

 

The mayor is fed up with paying the repair bills for the suspensions of Fire Station #1's trucks.

[huskerman007 26]

I do that all the time and somehow the firestation still works

And one more while I'm here. I guess I should've added it to the first post, but oh well.

 

Someone in the Census Bureau needs to talk to someone else:

Actually, I'm pretty certain this is a bug or something.  This is the only city in the region that experiences this problem.  The region view shows 87,789 as well, but for some reason, the line graph is always 10k higher.  Only mods I'm using are transportation fixes v019 and the perfect pathfinding.

[a0z1 3]

That was mean. they jest ate up my saint ritzys!

[Edman_123 11]

This is something I saw right after I replaced a parallel road and street with one way streets.

I guess it's good, because the commute time will go way down. The shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line. It may slow the cars down when they drive throught the building, though.

A small part of my city that I thought people would enjoy looking at.

Cool city. You could make something out of that in the city journals forum. But this thread is more for funny SC4 screen shots, so try to stay more on-topic.

Its just one of those days...

[Equinox 1,209]

Whoa!  If you look at that last one just right, you get the illusion that the smoke is really rising!  Creepy!

[a0z1 3]

woah, equinox is right! man thats odd...

[wolverine 12]

That's what makes SimCity 4 so great. Its graphics are so realistic, that even still images look like they are moving. Keep up the good work Maxis!

I was wondering about the tank scenario for RH. How do you get so many tanks to follow you like in a pic in 16 of tons of battletanx surounding a khaki tank. How do you do that? I forgot exactly who submitted t post but it was cool!
