    Cutty Sark Cutty Sark is, quite possibly, the most famous clipper ship ever built – rivalled only by her legendary competitor Thermopylae. Originally ordered for the Jock Willis Shipping Line, she was built on the River Leven, in Dumbarton, Scotland, and laid down in 1869. Cutty Sark was intended for the China tea trade, which required fast ships, and she was among the fastest – if not THE fastest. The era of the “China Clippers” went into the history books as the most romantic and inspiring days in the Age Of Sail. The sleek, graceful, ships with their towering masts and mountains of white, billowing canvas were truly thrilling sights to behold – even to the seasoned old mariners they left in their wakes as they raced across the southern seas. The famous clipper displaced 2,100 tons, with a hull length of 212 feet – her bowsprit added another 68 feet to the bow to carry a full array of head sails. Her 36-foot beam gave her a length-to-width ratio of just over 5-1, and her unusually sharp bow is credited with providing her speed. Her crew of approximately 35 men could hoist a spread of 32,000 square feet of canvas which, in a stiff wind, could drive her through the water at an amazing 17.5 knots. “AP” has provided a variety of Cutty Sark models – six in all -- both “ortho” and diagonal – as well as under sail, moored, and with or without crew aboard. This model is a true “work of art” and we hope you will enjoy it. (For a more complete history of Cutty Sark – see IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: CUXHAVEN – Chapter 19.) How to use This pack contains .SC4model-files and props as .SC4desc-files. So, by installing this pack nothing will directly appear in your game. You can use the props on your own lots or convert the SC4models into buildings, as you please. Since most props are to be used on water lots and props naturally align with the surface level, they will sink to the sea floor, if you do not stick to the guidelines on how to use props on water lots. Finally you will need to follow the instructions on how to make a lot transparent. You will find the props in any Lot-Editor under the prefix A_1P_h_ As per request from the community, I have also included a version of the ship without historic flags and crew. Please visit @Dreadnought's CJ to get detailed descriptions and the historical backgrounds to these prop packs. You will see a wonderful display of the results of our long collaboration there and can get a preview of what might be hidden in the coming prop packs or simply get some inspiration for your own harbour!

    Ammunition Pack 01 Every warship must have ammunition – and it seemed only logical that we should include various forms of ammunition handling for the fleet. There were, of course, several types of heavy guns used by the Imperial German Navy, but for the sake of simplicity, we have chosen to represent ammunition for the German main battery guns, the 11-inch high velocity SK-L/50 -- and the secondary battery guns, the 5.9-inch SK-L/45. The 11-inch rifle (gun) was capable of firing a 670-lb armour-piercing shell out to a maximum range of 22,300 yards at the rate of three rounds per minute. The 11-inch gun chambered a 52.9-lb, silk-bagged, powder charge directly behind the projectile (the fore-charge) -- followed by a 165.3-lb main charge in a brass case. Whereas most navies had adopted multiple silk bags for their propellant charges, the Germans developed the brass cased charge for the bulk of the cordite powder – brass cases were safer because they rarely burned and NEVER exploded. The 5.9-inch secondary battery guns could fire a 112-lb armour-piercing shell out to a range of 18,400 yards at the rate of five rounds per minute. When chambered, the projectile was followed by a single 31-lb silk-bagged powder charge. In this first ammunition prop pack, “AP” has provided you with a variety of 11-inch armour-piercing shells, white 5.9-inch shells on a rack, torpedoes, bagged powder charges, a rack of brass cartridge cases, and depth charges. We have provided several pictures to give you some ideas on how to use them. These will add realism and authentic detail to your naval bases.

    This DLL plugin activates two cheat codes that allow you to freely change the camera angles of the game. This allows you to use SimCity 4's 3D engine to its full potential and experience your cities from completely new angles. Just for fun. It solves many of the issues of the original (now deprecated) 3D Camera Mod by pcwhiz24. System requirements SimCity 4, version 1.1.641 (the digital release) (more info) Windows 10+ or Linux Installation Copy the DLL into the top-level directory of either Plugins folder (place it directly in <Documents>\SimCity 4\Plugins or <SC4 install folder>\Plugins, not in a subfolder). Usage Open the cheat console with CTRL + x and enter the CameraYaw or CameraPitch cheats: CameraYaw <angle> - set the azimuth angle (counter-clockwise) CameraYaw - reset the angle to the default of 22.5 degree CameraPitch <angle> - set the altitude angle for all zoom levels (range: 0.0 to 90.0 degree) CameraPitch <angle 1> .. <angle 5> - set the altitude angle for zoom levels 1 to 5 individually CameraPitch - reset the angles to the default for each zoom: 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 45° Examples top down view: CameraPitch 85 and CameraYaw 0 isometric SC3k-style view: CameraYaw 45 Sometimes the effect only fully applies after changing zoom level or rotating the map, particularly on zooms 5 and 6. Graphical glitches may occur, especially with the more extreme angles. To avoid rendering the region view of a city from a non-standard angle, use Fast-Save (hold ALT + press Save button) or reset the angles to the default values before saving. Source code Available on GitHub.

    Former (although I really wish he would return to BATing) member Kodebo sent me the files for his incredible LA City Hall he worked on many years ago which has been sitting on my hard drive. Rather than let it gather electronic dust it would be better served being used by the community. Lotted as a basic Landmark feel feel to lot as you please. I have a few other incoming treats to share over the next few weeks.

    Apologies on getting these out so late - I have been working on some of these for some time. These were modeled as an attempt to fill in the gaps of some NYC-based content. I will be adding to this set as well. Mirror-versions of all corner lots, residential and commercial alike. *DarkNite versions only Enjoy!

    Mmm tasty. Three pedestrian bridges hot out of the oven, just like mom used to make. You've been waiting for them long enough, due to my comedic incompetance and hectic schedule, but now they're finally here. Thanks to RedLotus for trasit-enabling them. Check the ReadMe for more information. I hope you enjoy the lots.

    Would you like to have tighter security around sensitive areas like powerplants, hitech-facilities or similar? Here is some proper fencing (and my first upload)! Dependencies * PEG_security-props.dat * PEG_mtp_super_textures_pack.dat (Textures are optional - works fine without, but all the concrete flooring will be rather uniform and too 'clean' for industrial areas) The lots are based on the ingame concrete plaza with all the same costs and effects. Basically they're just EyeCandy. Fillers and addons are all in separate files (14 lots), so you can delete any item you don't wish to use. Or add further pieces that I might release in the future. Thanx to PEGASUS for all the resources he makes available.

    This resource pack is a collection of chain link fence props that can be used on any type of lot that requires security fencing. The props in this pack may be used by other developers to enhance the appearance of their lots. The pack contains two styles of fencing (with or without barb wire) and includes extra items such as diagonal fence sections, corner sections, pedestrian gates and automatic rolling styled gates. ** This dependency has no dependencies. All Pegasus files are now legacy content and are no longer officially supported - however support from the wider community can be requested here.
