Can someone tell me where to find the church on this picture? 

The picture itself is from this mod :

 

And if you need any other houses of worship, here's a pretty comprehensive list- https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=6238.0

Does anyone recognize this subway station? It's labeled as 'Ah_MetroEntrance_MN'. Thanks.

As soon as you said "ah", I figured it had to be ah123ah123. A quick search shows the file is hosted on an off-site blogspot page here: http://nycj.blogspot.com/2006/11/sim-city-4-downloads-and-landmarks.html?m=1

I can't find it. "Astor Place 6 Train Station" looks alike, but is not quite the same...

Look for " New York Subway Station Pack " on that page.

So you do have this station, just don't know where you found it? Did you find the file in your plugins? If you did find it there, could you tell us what the date on the file (assuming you system settings keeps the original creation dates on files instead of rewriting it all the time)
I have a feeling that "_MN" means Maxis Night in which case it was created most probably in the past decade or so.

Thanks to @Flann the station is managed to be found:

It's part of this upload. There are two models for subway station. The DN is plain while the MN is with graffiti (as on the image above). The two model has two different lot, they can be plopped and used simultaneously.

Darn, it would have been hard to find without your expertise! These should be separated in different uploads... There is no picture so I can't ensure without installing, but I'll trust your say.

I have a bad habit of dropping a lot of stuff into my plugins folder after seeing it and thinking it looks nice, and then forgetting about it until I happen across it in the menu at some point.

Awesome, thank you. I was literally just crawling through zip archives and uploads from other NYC buildings, I vaguely remembered some lots having companion stations and thinking maybe this station was one. I thought it was that one similar looking one also at first.

It's a really nice model, the station is definitely hurting for an upgraded capacity.

Hi there. A few years back I installed the Industry Quadrupler because I felt like I needed way to much industrial area to satisfy the demand. More recently I installed the Residential Population Halving Mod because I felt like the population density was way to high. The problem is that I now have 1000's of I-Ag jobs for only a few farms which is quite unbalanced IMO. Is there :

1. An industry job multiplier excluding the I-Ag;
2. An I-Ag jobs reducer.

Also, now that I'm a few years into playing with the Industry Quadrupler, I feel like it might be a bit too much and not quite right. I found the Proportional Industry Jobs and Industry Doubler (allows to exclude I-Ag) which I wondered if you guys thought were better balanced?

 

Edit : After a few tests, I realised neither the Industry Quadrupler nor the Industry Doubler affect the I-Ag "field" jobs.

This isn't a request for a BAT, but rather an old wallpaper/promo image. There was once this night view of the SimCity 4 Opera House from an actual ground view perspective, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere online lately. If anyone has it saved, it would be appreciated.

Is there any plopable guardrails? I have some for curves from MUTCD US Highway Signs Pack from @Angry Mozart, but I'd like to have pieces as mentioned in this comment. I did a quick search and couldn't find something relevant.

[kschmidt 6,178]

Angry Mozart guiderail signs are on tight corners. Suggested wide angle, FAR curves, I believe aren´t suited for this kind of sinage. First the angle is way to narrow for a real sign. Overhead or side signs not attached may be more appropiate, as the sign you mention are more guidance sign wich remind motorist at the last moment wich direction the highway takes.A FAR Exit sign at the ramp might be something. Most cistp,ozab+e regopm featires are largly abbandoned from the NAM, US, Europe textures at core. Mandelsoft developer of RHW in time maid a lot of work regarding highway customization. Anyone, who wants to go in signage have to adapt to this situation. As ju steated anything might be posible but cstomization takes time to develop, there need to be somone who has the knowledge, willignes and time to do so !

@Photovoltaic Array Hi, maybe it could be this wallpaper here

Hi, I need help identifying this train station building, it's giving me a problem with the game and I can't identify it to remove it, because the game freezes me just when I point to it, to select it, I need help!!

Looks familiar, but have no idea which station is this. I can imagine that it's one of Bripizza's (E-N) stations, but from that little icon image I can not tell which one... 

Maybe one of these:

https://www.bripizza.net/sc4/staPlus/ensta.html

EDIT: yepp, definitely one of those on the link, but both of the stations has the same icon image. If you want to remove them try to located these file names:

Utils7x3_ENSta0B_2df4b310.SC4Lot

Utils7x3_ENStaPlusB1_ee0b3487.SC4Lot

Tal vez uno de estos:

EDITAR: sí, definitivamente uno de los que están en el enlace, pero ambas estaciones tienen la misma imagen de icono. Si desea eliminarlos, intente ubicar estos nombres de archivo:

Utils7x3_ENSta0B_2df4b310.SC4Lot

Utils7x3_ENStaPlusB1_ee0b3487.SC4Lot

Thanks I found the file and removed it, the problem is solved, thank you very much!!!

Hi friends... does anyone know what the larger round building is and if I can download it from any of sites.  The website listed in the corner doesn't list the building unfortunately.  Thanks in advance.

Looking for a link to a set(s) of low density R$ which I have listed as authored by JMyers, although that could be incorrect. The names I have are:

• BonnaVille, Craftsman, Destiny Homes, Empire, Fleetwood, Golden West, Heritage, Homestar, Lavoy, Narrow Lot Colonial.

I believe they're all (as well as others) part of this set: JMyers Homes

You are correct. Somehow they go separated in my files from the other half of the pack. Thanks

If you have the Extra Cheats plug-in installed, you can bring up Building/LotPlop and Maxis crops should be there in the I-R. Several caveats- they don't come in diagonals and they plop in an un-grown state. I don't know how long it takes for them to sync to surrounding crops(if ever). Other options means ways to disguise the un-zoned tile. Also, plain concrete pads for staging equipment, oil and fuel, are common on farms.

I finally found them in the "BuildingPlop" menu under "FarmFieldX_...". Thx for the answer!

I was interested "599 Lexington Avenue Subway Station" by Kryptowhite  from this site (https://nycj.blogspot.com/search?q=Marcszar).
The download link from Simtropolis is not available.
Does anyone know where this file can be downloaded?

Hi, I stumbled on a quit similair design subway station by Mattb325 wich might be a good replacement for your purpose !

Where can I get the train freight cars (automatas) seen in this picture?

The picture is taken from this city journal :

I couldn't tell you one train automata from another, especially just going by a pic of the boxcars, but all the Automata are in the STEX, under the cleverly titled "Automata"!

FYI, there is also a "long train mod" around, which is possibly what you might be seeing.

[nickvon 161]

Please help find these files...in my plugins folders.  I've edited the housing stock for this particular part of my region and these are now growing everywhere.  I am assuming this is a CP creation, so for this particular region I've removed every bit of CP housing I can find.   This one house is the only one still popping up.  My thought was that it could be a dependency for something civic, school, police or fire related.  Any idea what this file name could be called?   Actually now that I look at it longer it could be a mattb325 creation.  I'll check that next.  Thanks in advance for your time.

After a few days of sparse searching, I haven't found either... Let's just say the STEX's "Automata" category has 708 entries at the moment and it may well not be there at all.

@nickvon

No, that's really from CP. I believe it's this one (this upload comes with a growable residence at least):

https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=3178

I suggest you install this in a folder outside of Plugins and check the filenames there for comparison, you might have overlooked them.
