We can't press "g" or I suppose we can but nothing happens so it's kind of a waste of time, not to mention wear and tear on your keyboard. Nice CJ by the way, love the old residential blocks.

Hey. I was just about to try the pc version using Crossover, although I don't have this new "Crossover Games". Can I update my Crossover version to "games" or do I have to buy a whole new Crossover program. That would really annoy me, as I've only recently (last month or so) purchased Crossover for Mac. It's too bad that Simcity 4 for Mac was just a half-assed release.

I'm wondering, has anyone tried this with Crossover?

Hi all you fellow computer geeks! (if I may...) I have been playing Simcity since it's very first incarnation, and recently bought Simcity Deluxe as an early Christmas present to myself. I'm running a MacBook Pro with 2gig ram and the Radeon x1600 gfx card. I really enjoy this game, great time waster. My problem is, sometimes it's freezing. I can get out if I "Apple-Option-Esc", but lose my city since its last save point. This is getting really irritating. Is there a standard patch for this, or fix? Lowering the resolution and detail may have helped a bit, but it still happens from time to time, especially when zooming or when the computer has to do a bit of rendering. Also, is there an all in one download with lots of Mac compatible mods, or can someone just share their functional plug-in directory so I don't have to trial and error? Please? I'd love you forever for it! Meow for now! rff

Hi you guys, and thanks for your help. I now have no problems with freezing, but instead I'm having a problem with crashing "unexpectedly".. This doesn't seem to be a problem in lower resolutions, thankfully. And yes, disappearing cars. Not sure what you mean about the waves though? Scrolling is generally smooth and gameplay speed is normal. Anything I can do about the auto-zoning when I hold the button down too long or whatever it is that I'm doing? Really annoying!! Thanks for the advice, especially the option (windowed mode) and the NAM stuff is great.
