This is a wonderful CJ. You have an amazing talent for mixing modern buildings and towers, older style stone buildings, and beautiful gardens. I also enjoy your use of symmetry. All of your cities are masterfully built. The multiple events that you show as well as news articles and TV shows greatly add to the CJ as a whole. All in all, your CJ brings shows how video games really can be an art form. I eagerly await the next post.

We still have a nice group here, although I think what you are saying about newer games is somewhat true. While I love great graphics, just having that doesn't make a game. I would prefer better graphics as long as improving them doesn't sacrifice the quality of the game.

Detail detail detail!! Different street stiles, sidewalk decoration like food stands and planters, street lamps, electric signs over highways, etc. Everything should have different options for detail. Also, airports and seaports should be built by players. Make a few prebuilt for those that aren't able to or don't walk to take the time, but I want my eyes bleeding out of my skull because of looking at the list of things we can put in. Commercial signs and billboards are left. Preferably electric ones like the signs in Times Square. Landmarks should have uses as well. More decorative buildings. Also, a way where we can group city tiles together as one city in region view, with its own capital. Also for zoning, instead of changing the tiles that will be built, allow me to actually zone for certain building types so I can have different neighborhoods in a city tile without having to constantly regulate what is being built. More government buildings are a must. And I definately enjoyed the newspaper from older SimCity games. Give my neighborhoods culture, so I can have my Chinatown and Little Italy. Allow me to create events like parades and conventions. Finally, there should be different military buildings I can build so I can have my own custom military base. And having a military should be a good thing.

If my city looked like that.....drool......Maybe if we are ever able to create larger city tiles I could create a city large enough to have a district like that. Are you using the Amsterdam Central Train Station? I do have that in my city. How did you get the boats in the canals, what canals were you using, is it possible to get those sidewalks without changing my whole city to using those, did you plop or grow those buildings, if you grew them how did you regulate the style, where did you get them, could you provide a link to that GLR avenue station, and will you upload your region to Simtrop? Thanks.

We did it!!! The article has been saved!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simtropolis

I just quick-leveled the area where it was glitching and it is working perfectly now. What I don't get is why that was happeing. I didn't change the land in any way except for the river which is far away and from the hole digger lots.

I wish it was as easy as that but it's not. The only places the terrain isn't flat is at my river and the tunnel entrances dug with the tunnel builder lots. Thanks for trying.

I was just zoning my addition to the residential area today when I ran into a problem. Two of the tiles in one of my 6x6 city blocks weren't zoning. It wasn't just that the zoned tiles weren't appearing. The zoned tiles behind the glitching tiles had arrows on them. Also another block next to that one has one tile that won't zone. I can plop buildings, but I can't zone. I have a copy of SC4 Deluxe. I first installed SKU1 update, followed by NAM June 2007 and CAM. Today I installed the Bat Update, bldgprop_vol 1 and 2, Academy Awards Theatre-Victory, Burj Dubai V2, construction-Signs, and Burj Dubai construction.

BAT....update....nightlights..........aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thaaaaaaaaaaank yoooooooooooou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally all my custom buildings will have LIGHTS!!!!!! And now I can download that Oscars building!! I can never thank you enough Zelgadis and Beebs. I did a product regristration first, didn't get the confirmation email, tried again but couldn't use the same product key. Then I registered using the regristration form that came with the game. All of my emails to EA were returned so I couldn't get the nightlight update! Thank you!!!!!!!!

Could one of the lucky people who have succesfully completed product regristration take pity on us and upload the BAT nightlight patch? I have emailed EA many times and have had my emails returned. When they are returned the info says that the user doesn't exist. It really wasn't a good idea to restrict downloading patches. You can't use the patch in any way that would harm EA's sales or create pirated copies of the game. Also can anyone confirm if mailing EA or calling them works to get acccounts working?
