If you want me to research other things just call me up... i want to solve this problem too ... many of us have these crashproblems there has to be a way to get rid of it thanks again MatrixDJ

Alrite, i've investigated it very closely.... So i installed many new props etc... Well it seems ( on this moment) the crashproblem was caused by the map i played my city on.... just when loading the map and zooming one time in or out it crashed... When i loaded a medium size city with many farms a few blocks from the 'crashcity' i zoomed in and out a hundred times on full graphics, and it didn't crash once!! I'm going to built another city and check out if there are more ' corrupt' cities that cause those crashes, and/or other reasons of the damn crashproblem. Conclusion (on this moment) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: When playing a region (custom made in my case) there is a chance that there may be corrupt cities in it that are crashing more often or always when zooming or doing anything else. Decimating the city isn't a solution (in my case). Let's go on with invastegations to solve this problem. EDIT1: I played another map and after building a few minutes exactly the same happened... just when zooming in the textures aren't drawing fast enough and after zooming in a few seconds pass and i get dumped to the fu*cking desktop again... i'm going to remove props and plugins and hoping it will fix the problem EDIT2: FINAL CONCLUSION:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I finally found my crash problem. What did it making crashing my game everytime again? The answer is : PROPS It took 2 hours to remove all widespread props from CSX and the BSC Why i had to remove those? Well i downloaded mega prop packs and i extracted them in my folders without removing the props that was asked to remove. So it conflicted.... finally i put the BSC and CSX maps out of my plugins ... no crash anymore.. i removed the scattered props and downloaded all MEGA Props and from that moment the game didn't crash one time anymore.... Alk.

after a long while of waiting i finally bought a new pc.... but ofcourse ( like my old pc) this pc CAN'T play sc without fuc*king crashes ( *hates maxis and ea for never fixing it* ) so well .... no crashes for two weeks but after today crash after crash......... i played a new city and just when i zoomed in it just crashed... I deleted the city ( i thought my city could be corrupt) and now after building a few buildings exactly the same crash problem is popping up... the question : why i never happened before in other maps, why it DOES crash now. what have i done? I downloaded several plugins ( glenni's trainstation, and simgoober's frightstation and more) ... and today simcity is like old days unplayable cos of the damn crashes.... Again i got disappointed ... my hope is almost gone

finally a jacqulina CJ indeed very nicely done, looking forward for more

I may be wrong but Katrina is heading to New Orleans , am i right if a almost cathogory 4 hurricane can flood a city like New Orleans ?

p1 dream on

I can't explain this without a pic so....hopefully i can finally load up a pic you see ... it's a glitch and it looks like road layers on my landscape.. but there arent roads on man bad explanation you gotta see it do you see the pic? Edit: didn't download any internet drivers yet... i guess there aren't at the moment for such a new videocard

those drivers are installed i think ... but plz look good to those pics... you don't see it ? you see just a kind of unnatural structure in the landscape ... it's so obvious please take a good look again tot the total image.... it's just not right !! anyway i really hope thing work out because this bug is a true disaster i'm telling you

I hope this will get a sticky status.... because i haven't seen a thread like this now everybody can show there system specs and tell how smoothly it runs or crashlessly this will be very helpfull for members who buy a new computer thanks my current system: ATI Radeon X800 Pro ( not recommended) 1.5 GB of ram Pentium 4 2.6 GHZ ALL INTEL !!! remeber AMD IS better than INTEL for playing games like these

the scrolling thing isn't the biggest issue here its the loading time... it takes like 40 seconds to load if you have a full plugin folder :S

that's good news exit

definitly not the same thread... there is a difference this thread is to ask if players expierence lag or crashes with there system
