Yes, that appears to be the only one I could - accidentally - find thus far. I was really hoping for one with a roof. Thanks

 Hi

Yes, I'm cheating, just because I like to make the city the way I wish!

I use the Power ordinance from the Radical mod, but after 300.000 it stops working for some unknown reason and the Power and Water guy begin to complain, telling you thinks like 'The king of Hell' or some like that. 18.gif

So, along with this I want to build a power plant with an ultra-hyper-high capacity. Does it exist? Where? The smallest the best.

Cheers!

You can also mod the power plant you like to whatever output you want and to last virtually forever before needing replacement (in the game). I believe there's a tutorial on the omnibus by Raphael Ninja that explains how to do this. It's actually pretty easy.


Believe in only what you can prove.

You could also use the cheat "fightthepower". This is entered by pressing control+x, and does not need the Extra Cheats .dll.

EDIT: Whoops, I didn't explain what this does. This eliminates the need for power consumption in the city.

Thank you guys

I do use the Fightthepower, the problem are the pop up messages from the power assistant, the city may not need power anymore but he ''thinks'' that I'm so evil that I leave the Sims without power LOL, and some street lights won't turn on

So I guess I just need a high capacity power plant... but just a single one

The mod thing sounds great, I'll check out that stuff.

The hydrogen plant is too big, there's no space in my cities for it (unless it's a suburb or low area, but I currently need something very small, easy to hide) I'm using the PEG solar panels, I need about 5 to feed 300.000 sims (always with the power ordinance ON, otherwise I'd need about 40)

Would I be able to change or mod the PEG solar panel?

does anyone know of any lots which offer lots of jobs to help with unemployment? i'm sure there used to be a set of parks, the same as the ones found in the game, which offered something like 1000 jobs for each of the $s on simtropolis...but any lot/file anyone can recommend to help with jobs would be a great help.

thanks

I was wondering if you could point me to a good terrain mod that gives a very, tropical feel. Maybe like hawai? Something that would go with PEG's tropical water.

Thanks for your help.

Try one (or all) of my Nexis Bats/Lots:

Nexis Emergency Diesel Power

or this:

Nexis Mega Generator I

or this:

Nexis Village Battery No Road Version

These are the ones I always use myself.

More useful utility Bats and Lots (and others) can be found by searching for *Nexis*.

Yes, these stats can be alternated easily with the ilive Reader. If it seems too difficult for you, let me now, I'll be willing to do it for you, if you ask nicely....2.gif

@ianclowe4c: Looks normal to me? Maybe what you DON'T have is the No-Dirt Railroads mod. Is that it?

I'm looking for a train generator, something to generate rail traffic without lots of stations. I'm sure it exists (and heck, I may have asked for it before) but I just can't find it! Found it, on the LEX.


~ COMING SOON! Exciting new projects! ~

I am not sure but I will look into it. I do not want the pavement next to the railroad tracks. Thank you for your help. if that is indeed what it is i will try and search through my huge directory of files and see if there is something that i can get rid of. I am not sure what file that that mod would be under so i will have to check. Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,

Ian

Patience. Rivit is about to bring out a mod that unifies all railway tracks, NAM/STR included, that will bring a new level of realism to everyone. I know, because I have been testing it. Just a matter of a few days..44.gif

Ive been searching, but I can't seem to find a mod where trees are automatically grown onto sidewalks.

Ive found ones where trees grow alongside, but take up one tile on the side.

Thats no good for me because I'm trying to create a very urban city, but I want some trees.

You should try the SFBT Street Tree Mod, or if you have an American building style: Jeronij's Street Mod (LEX). They basically do the same, but I find SFBT's parked cars props to appear more European, so.. It's up to you and your style.

Hope it helps. 1.gif
