  1. Show us your Airports!

    Bereiten Sie für den Start. Prepare for takeoff. Witness my most advanced SC4 airport design yet. Departures begin on 23.12.11
  2. Show us your Airports!

    Pembroke Valley International Airport
  3. Show us your Airports!

    Here's a preview of Empire County International Airport: More will follow soon, probably in a CJ. All other airports simply fail compared to this monstrosity.
  4. Buses cost.

    Most mass transit systems, particularly in the US, are subsidized by tax dollars. Farebox revenue collection rates vary widely between agencies, but because of the labor/mechanical costs inherent to bus and rail systems, it is almost impossible to operate at a profitable margin without undermining the affordability that makes transit a viable alternative to driving..
  5. Impressive, although I might remind you that larger size doesn't necessarily equate to better realism. I'll have to take the winner on myself, I suppose ; )

    It's been two weeks...any progress?
  7. Show us your airport!

    Josh6 - nice job with the buses, it reminds me of Washington Dulles.
  8. Transferring Files

    Hey, brand new Mac user here. I've just acquired a copy of Sim City 4 Deluxe for Mac and I'm wondering if I can simply copy/paste my old plugins folder on my old Windows to the new Mac on a flash drive. Will there be any compatibility issues? I've already downloaded a separate copy of the NAM for obvious reasons, but than that is there anything I should know about? Thanks.

    You might want to include an inside corner piece as well.
  10. 7 Killed in California car chase

    Originally posted by: Duke87 This is why police shouldn't engage in high speed chases. They tend to end in crashes a lot. Sometimes those crashes hurt and kill innocent bystanders. quote> You do realize that banning high speed chases will only incentivize criminals to evade pursuit/arrest by driving recklessly, yes?

    Definitely worth the download, good work.
  12. How to lower commute time.

    Have you installed a traffic simulator with the NAM? That will cut down drastically on the commute time problem.

    Nice! Can't wait for the Orion VII's to come out.
  14. Show us your airport!

    Welcome to Terragen International Airport! Terragen International Airport is a major aerial gateway located in the fictional Crescent County, California. It is a new focus city for two airlines, Southwest Airlines and United Airlines, and is served by 14 airlines and 2 subsidiaries to 48 destinations in Canada, Great Britain, Japan, and the US. Twenty million passengers passed through the airport in 2008. The airport has 50 gates and two parallel runways. Runway 18L/36R is 11,020 feet x 150 feet, while Runway 18R/36L 8920 feet x 150 feet. Both are capable of handling full-size jets. The airport features a large midfield terminal complex and has three concourses. A brand new international terminal is currently under construction, and is slated to open in the summer of 2012. An additional 25-gate satellite concourse to expand domestic capacity is planned but has not been officially approved due to the stagnating economy. Concourse A is located immediate beyond both security checkpoints, and the layout hugs the terminal building. It has nine gates and is serviced by the following airlines: Delta Air Lines: Gates A1-A3 (Atlanta, Cincinnati, New York-JFK, Salt Lake City) JetBlue Airways: Gates A4-A5 (Boston, Long Beach) Continental Airlines: Gates A6-A9 (Cleveland, Honolulu, Houston-Intercontinental, Newark) Concourse B has 13 gates. It is being used temporarily for international flights until the new Concourse D is completed; however, domestic airlines are still serviced through here as well. Concourse B is served by the following airlines: British Airways: Gate B1 (London-Heathrow) Alaska Airlines: Gate B2-B3 (Portland OR, Seattle-Tacoma) Northwest Airlink: Gate B3 (Detroit) Note: Delta Air Lines will be consolidating this flight under their existing merger with Northwest within a matter of months. At that point Alaska Airlines will claim sole control of the gate. Virgin America: Gate B4 (San Francisco) Note: plane shown is Virgin Blue livery temporarily leased to Virgin America Frontier Airlines: Gate B5 (Denver) US Airways: Gates B6-B8 (Charlotte, New York-LaGuardia, Philadelphia, Phoenix) WestJet: Gates B9-B10 (Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver) Air Canada Jazz Gate B11 (Vancouver)b]Horizon Air: Gates B12-B13 (Portland OR, Seattle-Tacoma, Spokane) Concourse C is a remote concourse connected to the main terminal via a ground-level walkway. It contains 28 gates. The west wing is served by the following airlines: United Express: Gates C1-C4 (Boise, Denver, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Portland OR, Reno-Tahoe, San Francisco, Seattle-Tacoma United Airlines: Gates C5-C13 (Baltimore-Washington, Boston, Chicago-O'Hare, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver, Los Angeles, Orlando, San Francisco, Tokyo-Narita, Washington-Dulles) The east wing of Concourse C is served by the following airlines: American Airlines: Gates C14, C16, C18 (Boston, Chicago-O'Hare, Dallas-Fort Worth, Los Angeles, Miami, St. Louis) Southwest Airlines: Gates C15, C17, C19-C28 (Albuquerque, Austin, Burbank, Chicago-Midway, Denver, Houston-Hobby, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Ontario CA, Orange County, Phoenix, Portland OR, Reno/Tahoe, Sacramento, Salt Lake City, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle/Tacoma, Spokane) Concourse D is currently under construction. When completed, the concourse will contain 12 gates, and the new terminal extension will expand the airport's capacity to handle international transpacific and transatlantic flights. New routes to Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, and Mexico are all under consideration. Terragen International Airport can be accessed in several ways. Shown above is the intersection of the airport access road with CA Route 21. From the north, CA 21 is an eight-lane freeway that heads into the downtown core. South of the intersection, the freeway narrows to just four lanes and heads into the unincorporated suburbs and rural areas of the south county. This portion passes the airport via a trench that stradles the western taxiways. Public transportation is available. A number of bus routes serve the airport, and there is also a light-rail connection - CityTrak's Green Line terminates at the airport. The airport contains several long-term parking lots that are connected to the terminals via shuttle buses. One of these is located in the median of CA 21. Rental car facilities are available offsite via shuttle bus. These are also in the median of CA 21. Several hotels are available to passengers passing through. Here is a small selection of them; some are located farther away. A small general aviation area is located at the north end of the airport. The main general aviation area is located between the runways on the south side of the airport. Cargo facilities are also based here. Shown below are some miscellaneous shots: That's all!
