  1. The Leaving / Returning Thread

    Empowered One replied to simwario's topic in General Off-Topic

    That is a very good tip since I got impatient and bought it on gog. ...And I just found the disk of the main game.... But atleast I have backup access to the game I guess XD EDIT: I just installed and noticed there are 2 plugin folders. 1 in documents and 1 in the programfiles. which one do i drop the mods again?

  2. The Leaving / Returning Thread

    Oh that is great to know as well! I made an GOG account just to ask if they wanted to add an old fav of mine; Holiday Island. They didn't have iDeal (dutch way of internet banking) back then and didnt have any plans to add it. I just checked and they have changed their stance and added iDeal! Which is awesome since I have bad experiences with PayPal and don't have a creditcard. This might just be the tippingpoint

    I never got to a point where I thought I needed such a tool. So fingers crossed I won't need it now! Awesome! temptation to just buy it on GOG rising...

    Thank you for the welcome ^^ And also thank you for the heads-up regarding the Winderps update. I've found my rush hour disk and my sc4 strategy guide. Still looking for the disc of the main game. At this point I'm tempted to just buy it again on steam.

    Hello everyone, sort of back since YEARS (testing the waters since a lot has changed). Accidentally stumbled upon the name of my account after having forgotten it after so long. Really surprised my account hasn't been deleted after being gone for so long (I've not checked how long its been since I've last posted) I just felt like playing the game again but still looking for the disks atm. Sad to see Moose has left the earthly realms after I left. I have no words... EDIT: *looks around at his old forumposts* I have no recollection of this place. last post was in 2015. Feels like a lot longer.

  6. What do you want in Cities: Skylines?

    Empowered One replied to AidanA28's topic in Cities: Skylines General Discussion

    Realistic traffic. No seriously, I'm getting real tired of my 4 and 6 lane roads being clogged in just 1 lane.....
  7. World Grid. It's been confirmed that the game has not got one. Would be interesting if it became a bit more like SC4 in that aspect.

  8. I challenge you to brake this highway design

    Empowered One replied to perafilozof's topic in Cities: Skylines Showcase

    True, however, the gap between reality and simulation here is way too obvious for me as a person to go along with and is actually damaging my enjoyment of playing with it.
  9. Sad that one would need to work around this. Doesn't really make this forum userfriendly with the development of the game being on available on Steam. I feel like moving to the paradox forum since there you can use steam images ...

  10. I challenge you to brake this highway design

    Empowered One replied to perafilozof's topic in Cities: Skylines Showcase

    Seeing how borked the game is when it comes to the traffic AI, I don't see this as a challenge. You just made this to work around the fact that the game is programmed in such a way that cars don't know how to use the road efficiently. But it might still be a nice map to play with.

  11. NAM: Requests - 2nd Edition

    Empowered One replied to CaptCity's topic in NAM & Transit Networks

    I'm curious: Any chance there will be a NAM for Cities: Skylines in the near future?

    Okay, wish it would be good to know that it's not just me, but seeing how popular Steam is... I hope Simtropolis will allow images from Steam soon. Meanwhile this stuff has taken half a page that could've been used to stay on topic. =/

    I don't think it's Imgur. It's this forum. Whenever I try to use that url with Imgur, I get the following message: 'You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community.' I will assume that it's this forum rather than Imgur.

    Right click on the image in the Steam browser, copy its URL, copy it into Imgur and use that URL. I keep getting the message that I am not allowed to use that image extension.... :confused:

    The Roermondsplein, Arnhem, Netherlands: https://www.google.nl/maps/place/Roermondsplein,+Arnhem/@51.9800933,5.9009744,17z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x47c7a5b792b12d67:0x7a22179d5e9c0b2f http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=408896727 I am for some reason not able/allowed to post pictures from Steam... >_> At least the img url doesn't seem to work on here. Any help would be great. made it in SC4 too with the NAM. Have to say I miss being able to make on&off ramps that only affect 1 side of the avenue.
  16. terrain.party really is easy to use but... I don't see a hight map folder anywhere... but I'm a Steam user so can anyone point me the way where I might find it? I believe they go here: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\MapEditor\Heightmaps Steam doesn't seem to make maps that way. I've searched for it on my computer but there isn't even a Addons map in any of the Cities_Skylines folders! *very confused*

  18. Request: Terrain Editor a la SC4's God Mode. The way it is now feels very unintuitive. The hills are mesas until you use the soften tool that despite that you can adjust the brush size and strength I usually find myself to erase parts of the terrain that are great until I try to spiff up a specific area. A problem I did not really remember to have in SC4. So therefor I'd like to request a mod that makes the editor more like SC4's God Mode. Request: A mod to make it possible to snap to grid when creating a road/rail in the middle of nowhere. I find myself sometimes experimenting with the roads, but I find it really annoying that it's almost impossible to figure out how to build a road paralel to the city edge. Don't know but call it an OCD thing that I would like to see cured. Request: a mod that gives you the ability to BUY all spaces without having to reach milestones while also still be able to get achievements. That would be more in the SC4 spirit imo. Request: U-Drive-It Loved this. And with the First Person mod already out....means a new way to experience driving through your city and doing stuff.

    This post... those pictures.... I WANT TO SEE IT MOVING!!! And it's also proof 9 tiles might be a tad too little....but my GAWD dat interchange.... I'll join Haljackey in my response...

  21. Because I don't see any way in-game to change that, like it's pre-determined or something. You can even change the amount of utulity consumption... which strikes me as odd seeing how that is changable when making a park.
  22. I honestly still have problems adjusting to a SC2013 type of game rather than SC4. It's like I've loved and played SC4 so much that I am sort of... wel.. addicted to the type of gameplay it offered. I just can't like or get used to forced region connections. But aside of that I'm enjoying it more than SC2013 and am sure to enjoy it more if there are going to be mods that make it more like SC4.
  23. Great, now my thread can be closed. (link to thread here: ) Request: Terrain Editor a la SC4's God Mode. The way it is now feels very unintuitive.

  24. Since there is no request thread or forum yet, I'll just plop this here. The way it is now feels very unintuitive.

  25. IncGamers: Cities: Skylines Infrastructure highlights

    Empowered One commented on Hellken's article in News

    I'm surprised how much of a 'clone' (really, it's funny visual-wise) of 2013 it looks, giving me the vibe they just took 2013 and litterally build on it. I hope the hype is justified.
