What is the residential-looking tower at the bottom of this picture? The one with the angular top floor.

 

 

I believe that is Bixel's HK Wu Wei Group Tower -   I hope its the building you're point out to.

I couldn't find one, so here's one I've just whipped up:

 

I certainly appreciate that CB, thank you very much.

 

However, the link brings me to the "Sorry, can't find that" page. 

 

I would like to try it out once the link is fixed.

 

Since I've been trying out one of the night time background mods, I'm familiar with the correct installation and my originals are backed up to the archive folder. But thank you for the heads up just in case.

Thanks for pointing that out, not sure why that happened. I think it should be fixed now in my previous post. ;)

Alternatively, I've uploaded it to Google Drive [Download Link].

That's cool, just wanted to make sure. Also if anyone else is interested, it's clear what to do.

The link works now.

 

MOD is tested & approved. 

 

Thank you CB.    So much better than the drab Bk&Bl grid background.

"Drehkiefern" is what those trees with the long, flimsy stems are called in German and I have them as MMPs by that name. They are in fact by cycledogg and I think they might be in this set: http://kurier.simcityplaza.de/details.php?file=178 but I'm not sure wether that's the right one. If it is, it also has a couple of other really neat looking trees in them, I used those a lot until I switched to girafe's stuff.

 

Wait, I didn't see the actual tree controllers have already been posted. Well alright, move along. :D

Hi all,

 

Can anyone help me find the newest versions of Wal-Mart and Target stores. There are ones in the STExchange from 2004 and the era of walmart.... but this one is the current look of how walmart is building their stores today. It was on a journal.... and I can't seem to find my post there :(

 

Also, are there anyways of having an easy way to remember what zone size for the custom lots I've downloaded.... it's a pain to remember the size of a huge shopping strip and hope it pops up.... (a list or application of custom content and the zoning sizes)?

 

Thanks.

I am intrigued by the Nimitz class carrier in the lower corner of this image-

I've seen this particular ship before on another forum. However, I haven't seen this anywhere on the STEX or the LEX. If anyone knows of a site that will allow me to download this ship, that would be greatly appreciated.

You know what I do to catalog my lot sizes?

 

I have a test region and O choose one city tile and I run the "plop all lots" cheat from the extra cheats.dll, then once that is done running, you now have a visual catalog of almost all of your lots.  Make sure to pause the simulation before you do this for the best results, if the simulation is not paused when you run this cheat, once the cheat is done running all of your buildings will dilapidate due to either lack of power or lack of water, and your whole city tile may go bankrupt instantly.

The carrier is the USS Harry S Truman by Travis of UCC/ITC.  I don't know if it is available somewhere though.  Couldn't find it.

I've seen a mod that adds T21 mailboxes, trees and whatever to the sidewalks of TLA-7/AVE-6. I tried searching around the STEX/LEX but can't find it. Is it a Japanese mod? ^_^

All of the MMP Sim packs I have are all white people. Are there any out there that have black people? I am wanting to do some African recreations and it will seem odd to have cities full of white people!

That's what I was afraid of. I couldn't find it on the anywhere, not even on the Japanese sites I found. Looks like my quest continues.

That's the comment of the day. I can't stop laughing.

I'm looking for beach blanket sunbathing MMPs. Or people in bathing suits doing whatever. Not concerned about the race. lol :P

and not the surfers lots either. Have those already.

Interesting. I already have that prop pack and a few MMP extensions for about 50% of the people in that image. It seems that I'm missing the extension for the beach blanket people and the construction people/equipment. I'll have to dig around for the extension for the other half.

 

EDIT:  Found it!! It was on the ToutSimCities site, just had to dig a bit. Though I had the Nams Pack 2 already, it was only cause needing the deps for something else. I see there is more digging to do on that site. 

 

Thanks for the heads up Ace

Both are from the Network Addon Mod. For the roundabout, you will need to select "Custom Installation" and tick the box saying "Maxis Highway Override". As for the grass tram in avenue, that can be found in the same tab as the Tram In Road, if I remember correctly.

Has anyone come across a plain ole' black background mod?  

 

There are a few "night time" background mods with stars or some sort of celestial effect, but that's not what I'm looking for. Though I will try them anyways to see how the look.

 

Rather tired of the blue/black grid background, but having some of the sky textures doesn't look right either.

 

I couldn't find one, so here's one I've just whipped up:

 

attachicon.gifsimple_black_city_background.zip

 

As the name goes, it's rather simple. But if you think it's worthwhile I could always upload it to the STEX.

 

 

Installation

1.  First backup your default background files to a safe location.

     These are located inside your game's "Maxis" plugins folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe\Plugins"

2.  Copy the 5 new black PNG files into this same folder.

3.  Done! ;)

 

 

Hey Cyclone Boom,

 

I really like the black background you created and was wondering if you would mind creating a certain colour for me?  I'm looking for the "Dark Blue Water" colour in "Drunken Water Mods" If you have time and it's possible, it would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks daybreak :)

Hey Everyone,

 

Does anyone have a good proven MOD for taking care of water, power and garbage requirements?
