If this was a transport issue then im sure the abandonment would be residential, not commercial.

fair enough

Eagerly awaiting release!!! How come the development has been in private? Well whatever the reason, i'm on the edge of my seat! I'm actually surprised that it wasn't part of the NAM but then, I haven't read the full thread so maybe i should.

The motive behind this is very unclear. Was the man trying to rape the girl? If not then why was he nude? Is this a nudist criminal gone too far? Why did he undress at the scene? Raises so many questions.

I think it's also important to realise what IS realistic, or at least close. And you also have to realise that the community has made it sooooo much better, remember when you first got the game and things like roundabouts were impossible and everything looked the same? It's different these days.

Actually they're only slightly smaller than real-life. The size of a tile is about 16m. The average highway or motorway, conjoined with 6 lanes is 36m wide. This makes them only 4m out. However they have no emergency lane (another unrealistic aspect) making the lanes about the right size but the road itself only slightly smaller. Also, the road capacities are waaaaaaay too low, and only peak traffic is shown. In case you haven't noticed where you are, traffic still flows all day.

I live in the city with europe's 3rd slowest average speed at rush hour, Bristol. Only Paris and Rome have worse conjestion. And let me tell you, barely a single right-angle. the average speed btw is 16.2mph and that includes ALL traffic across the city. (london is 16.7mph)

Personally I don't use the RHW much, it consumes too much space in the urban environment. The probelem is, thats where all the heavy traffic is, and so where you need more lanes.

Multi-lane avenues. for higher capasity and unlimited access to buildings

Try adding plazas, airports, convention centres, stock exchanges. A high education among your sims will also attract the knowledge-based C$$$ and IHT jobs.

I have the exact same problem on a genuine sc4 game. I did everything I was supposed to. The only lights that show up on custom downloads are lampposts.

Another thing - Parks will only be attractive for a limited time, try re-plopping them the keep the sims interested. Make sure there is plenty of room for com/ind development too.
