Hiya, Ponti. Welcome to Simtropolis.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @Ponti13 and welcome to Simtropolis.

You've just joined a magnificently magnanimous mayoral community of city building enthusiasts. Hope you enjoy it here too!

[Zephyrus22 109]

Hi folks!

I actually have been a member of Simtropolis off and on since 2009 on another account, but was never very active on my previous account outside of asking the occasional question or commenting on lots and maps over the years. My old account was associated with my real-life identity, so I wanted to create a new one to remain anonymous.

Anyway, I have played SimCity 4 since around 2006 and, apart from a few extended breaks from the game, have continuously come back to it because no city-building sim I've tried can come close to this game. I have also been playing around with Lot Editor for the first time and am interested in learning to BAT as a winter project. I am looking forward to being more active in this community and hope to utilize its wealth of knowledge to help me learn the new skill of BATing.

In closing, I wanted to share a few images of the modular alley lots I created today! These are something I wanted on Simtropolis for a long time before I realized that I could very easily make it on my own in Lot Editor. A quick tutorial or two later and I'm very happy with the result! I may upload them to the STEX in the future once I play around with them for a while.

Hi folks!

Hiya! Welcome back to Simtropolis.

Those are nice looking alleys and will go well on the STEX whenever you are ready.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @Zephyrus22 and welcome back to Simtropolis on your grand return to mayorship.

SC4 is certainly amazing how it continues to sustain the active interest of the community after all these years. Part of this is due to the custom content which adds so much variety to the base simulation (which lays a very solid foundation in its own right). City building allows our imagination and creativity to flourish in boundless ways.

The alleyway lots you've created are excellent, and how you've got aspirations with the BAT tool sounds super smashing great!

Hello old and new Member...

Feel free to ask away, thats why we are here for.

[Spaceblaze 194]

Welcome to all the new and returning players!

 

I would like to take this oppertunity to wish everyone the best and lots of fun playing in 2021

[Mr Plum 15]

Hello everyone,

First of, Best wishes for 2021,I know it will be tough but we have each other and Simcity4 of course.

I"m still learning the ropes here  and need to ask a few questions, so I am a little uncertain how to get the answers I need 

and a bit unsure of what to do.

So thanks in advance for any advice.

Cheers All

Mr Plum

Hiya, @Mr Plum.

Was it you with the candlestick in the library?

A couple of good places to start are:

• The Introduction and Guide to Simtropolis thread.
• The SimCity 4 General Discussion forum.

Pinned topics in a forum generally have a lot of compiled tidbits of useful info. Ofc, you can also create a new topic or reply to an existing one with your questions. Even if said question has been asked and answered before, the members and staff here often know where those are and can point you to them.

And, welcome to Simtropolis.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @Mr Plum and welcome to Simtropolis.

It's great to ask questions when unsure of anything, and you'll soon find your way here in beginning your journey as masterful SC4 mayor.

We're all here to help, and hope you enjoy the site!

Hiya, @Isabel. Welcome to Simtropolis.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @Isabel and welcome to Simtropolis.

Whichever city-building game(s) you decide to play, the main thing absolutely is to have fun!

[TotoroKeroppi 10]

Hi everyone, and Happy New Year!

I first started playing SimCity 4 as a kid when it first came out, was really into it for a few years but then for some reason stopped. I got SimCity 2013 last year and while I had fun with it, I felt that it was never as exciting as SimCity 4, so I decided to get back into 4. And wow, I didn't know that such a huge community existed! And all the custom content! I've always wondered how others were building such cool cities. You folks have opened up a whole new world to me and I am really excited to dive in. Thanks for keeping this community alive for so many years!

Downloading my first mod now. Can't wait!

[SIM-ple Jack 17,444]

Welcome TotoroKeroppi. Happy diving!

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @TotoroKeroppi and welcome to Simtropolis.

From your description it reminds me of when to my amazement I first discovered the community. You've summed it up well too, because now realising there's such potential, it'll lead to a new journey of awesomeness. This will help heighten SC4 along a completely new and diverse journey of discovery for you.

[CorinaMarie 29,605]

Hiya, @TotoroKeroppi. Welcome to Simtropolis.

Hello to all Freshmans at Simtropolis... the City where the Community is born ;-)

Feel free to ask away, thats why we are here for, to help by interisting Questions... and all others ^^

Welcome to Simtropolis, the subborn German :-D

[Pille0503 33]

Hello everyone!

I've been lurking around on Simtropolis as a silent reader for about 9 years now. Finally, time has come to introduce myself ^.^

After staying at home most of the time in 2020 (because of obvious reasons) I had a bit more time to play my favourite game ever: SimCity 4! Discovering the game mechanics, the timeless design and an endless amount of mods and buildings never gets boring. The community on Simtropolis has always been a big help when searching for answers (and, of course, finding them ) on several issues or getting inspirations for my regions via galleries and city journals.

Well, in early 2020 I have finally found a map file which I really liked and which I have since been playing on (previous maps always became boring and I abandoned them after a few weeks).  I am planning on starting a city journal in the near future which is the main reason for introducing myself here ^.^* I simply did not want to be the guy coming outta nowhere and start a city journal

That is it for now. If you have any questions feel free to aks away!

Greetings from Germany

 

[CorinaMarie 29,605]

Hiya, @Pille0503. Welcome to posting on Simtropolis.

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @Pille0503 and welcome to Simtropolis also.

Sounds great with how you've made that first step for posting, and this truly is a magnificent community of city-building enthusiasts from all parts of the world. It's cool to hear that you've been inspired seeing the creations others have posted, and all the best with your own City Journal adventures!

[Cyclone Boom 16,875]

Hi @primary01 and welcome to Simtropolis.

[Propfam 2,288]

Welcome to Simtropolis for all new members here! Nice to meet all of you!

[edwarddevlin813 5]

hello i am returning to game after a very long abscence i need to relearn how to install NAM the whole process again please help ?

[Platov 6]

I was an anonymous user of this site, only for download props and files for SimCity 3000 but the time to participate has come.

I am Platov. I am from a small hamlet in Murcia, Spain. I am historian and now I am studying to become a high school teacher. If you have any questions regarding to Ancient History, specially Rome, feel free to ask me below.

I love city builders. My entry into the genre was Caesar II by Impressions (and to Ancient Rome History, of course). My favourite entry in the SimCity saga is 3000 Unlimited because I have great times playing this during high school (I continue to play it thanks to GOG.com). I don't know if Tropico enters in this genre (for many people, is considered a dictator simulator) but is another city builder that I like it.

So, hello to everyone! And sorry for my bad english. It's a bit rusty.
