What is the best highway layout?
Frankie_Grove replied to umnoscottishhootsmon's topic in SC4 Showcase
ringroads? oh, like a city bypass, I see now. Well, i find that direct connections via highway between work place and the homes are the best way to go. Most efficent anyway. I like non-complicated networks, as here in the Southern USA, the highways aren't quite that complicated. -
Wow, amazing, how come I can't get 100% ploped cities to work? Cool, and realistic man! way to go!

I am currently giving transit modding a try, but failure is coming So, I would like to request this: It's a mammoth interchange in Atlanta, GA, obviosly, there was no room for a cloverleaf, so this was divised. So I would like to request it, I tried and failed, but someone told me a lack of interchange makers is apparent. But I would very much like to request it myself

The US's most pathetic highways
Frankie_Grove replied to Duke87's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
I know, I-25 through Denver is so trafficed, they just upgraded it with the 'T-Rex' project. There is space for another 3 lanes, but they made it a shoulder??? Weird....I think Denver still needs some work -

Yeah, good luck with this bullet

Too cool! Can't wait to add those to my city! Very nice and different! Love it!

These are proven to work tips for Windows 98/2000/XP 1. Start with the basics, your Hard Drive is an essential part of any computer, so taking care of it is top priority. First thing to be done, is Disk Cleanup, the program is located under the System Tools menu. This deletes internet temporary files, empties the recycle bin, and deletes files that are just wasteing space. 2. Another important tip, is Defragmintation of your Hard Drive (s). This helps to better organize your computer, and can give you some extra speed and Hard Drive space. This is also located under the System Tools menu. 3. RAM is extremely importatant especially for SC4, the game can run at 256MB but with so much lag, it's not funny. Upgrade your RAM for best results. It is great to run the game at about 2GB of RAM. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW HOW TO PUT IT IN, ELSE YOU RISK DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER! 4. Also, RAM is important to your computer, believe it or not, restarting your computer is a great idea, the reason is that it clears the contents of RAM and allows more of it to be used. If you run your computer 24/7 Then restarting could be the answer to your lag problems. 5. Organization of your plug-ins folder is also important, if you have files with more than one name, with a (2) or (3) after it, needs to be deleted or put into one central file. DO NOT delete important files, you wouldn't want to delete a prop or readme file! 6. This could be the most important of all the tips, it gives the most resources to the game. Close background programs, especially anti-virus programs, these programs can cause SSSLLLOOOWW gameplay, and can cause crashing. All non-essential programs need to be closed, this way your machine can give the most to your game. 7. On a further note, running your computer say..with XP and only 256 MB of RAM or less, you're asking for trouble. You can actually run out of RAM with XP on an older system, i've experienced it before. On the list of SC4 system requirements, it says 256 MB RAM for Windows XP because XP is a super-RAM eater (SC4 and XP get along quite nicely ). If you have XP and check your system information, it says available physical memory, if you have 256MB, only 140MB is devoted to SC4 at a given time! 8. For XP users who upgraded to XP using an older system: If you experience lag in the game, or you have less than 256MB, I suggest downgradeing to Windows 98, 98 has great drivers, and doesn't consume RAM. In the case of 98, with a 256MB stick, about 230MB is donated to SC4, so downgrade maybe your answer to lag problems! .......Hope these Help! More great tips soon to come!

Second in a series of alternate power plants. Provides a transit enabled alternate to the orginal in-game version. No stats were changed and a few dependecies still are required.

Here is an alternative power plant to the in-game one. This DOES NOT replace the in-game one. I became frustrated with the original as it was unrealistic, so I made it better. Increased Plop cost and power output. A dependency, I think that is all. My never ending list of textures and props is rather difficult to go through. This may be updated accordingly. By the way, this is my first upload, so be gentle. BSC Mega Props JES Vol01 Railyard Textures Mega Pack -north_country_dude If you are missing anything that isn't in that prop pack, let me know, and I will correct it, and add to the list whatever. Enjoy! EDIT: Also transit enabled for rail and street Plop Cost: $20,000 stand by -Frankie
