Auckland & Greater Region - II

Looks very realistic. Nice update & good work.

 You have really captured the look of the place! Though I think the beach should come further from the shore.

 Nice attempt at the recreation of the area!  I concur about the beach, but now I think about it, it's probably not as wide as its RL counterpart because the in-game beach texture only extends a few tiles.

Thanks guys...   yup definately room for tweaking... and a few more details  just one evenings work.  

There is an 'endless' beach mod, but I have not tried it...   but I agree the beach is a little narrow.

You gotta be a certain kind of crazy to try to recreate RL maps in SC4.  

Not bad at all.  :P

ISF
 

Are there any mods that exist that switch traffic from right-hand drive to left-hand drive, and would any mods (i.e. NAM) need to be updated for that?

If anyone can suggest anything it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Switching from right to left hand drive is easy and you can do it yourself with no special downloads.

When you install the NAM you do need to then select the LHD options.

How To Switch From Right To Left Hand Drive

There are two major steps.

Part one of two

 

• Locate and go to the directory where you have installed SC4, usually it is C:\Program Files\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe
• Within this directory, you will see a folder name English, it should contain a file called SimCityLocale, if it does, you are looking at the correct folder.
• Now rename this folder from English to UKEnglsh (not a typo!)

 

Part two of two

 

• From your START menu, select Run.
• Type in regedit into the field and click OK.
• On the left hand directory tree, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Maxis > SimCity 4 > 1.0
• Change the Language value by right clicking it and selecting Modify.
• Leave it as Hexadecimal and enter 13 into the Value Data field. Click OK.

With these two major steps complete, your sims will now start driving on the Left! If you wish to switch from the Left to the Right - rename the folder to English in step 3, and enter 1 into the Value Data field in step 8 instead.
