the_drain

[You know that blue bar up there with buttons "Forum", "Live Chat", "ST-Exchange" etc.? In my honest opinion I think it would be good if an extra, small section was added called "Official add-ons/patches" (an extra button) that contained all the official stuff (Maxis made lots from their site), and all the patches as the original automated installers. quote> I think this is an excellent idea.

I have OS 10.5.2 / Graphics update also. (on a MBP) For a while there I wasn't getting any music (but i did get sounds). The system update fixed that. I do get some graphical glitches occasionally...white tiles where there should be one way streets / farms (none since i switched to 16 bit colour) I have _just_ bought the game though (been playing it like a fiend though)...was waiting for the universal patch. So I've never done it without the beta update.

lame

You must have a foreign pirated version. My Sims are very articulate. :-)

I've been experiencing v. smooth gameplay with my Intel mac (universal patch installed).

bah. gmax is also windows only. no mac users out there doing bats?

I tried searching for this, couldn't find anything. Is anyone using Blender to model buidlings? I just picked up SimCity 4 Deluxe (finally went universal on the mac) and would like to try my hand at modeling, only 3DsMax is not available for the Mac. Is Blender possible? Any tips how to make buildings fit with the stock buildings in game? Any advise / links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
