ok have got CitiesXL 2011 working on linux (kubuntu 10.10) without any issues using playonlinux. Looks great. You need to activate gdiplus in you wine prefix to get it to work. Any questions just ask here or/and look at the site playonlinux.com! good luck

Just a small request, and I don't know if anybody has asked these yet: 1. Snow mod for a snow landscape (not mountains) but in the streats to get a real winter fealing to your city. Hope this can be done without having to plop only snow buildings and roads. 2. Canals 3. Windmills (old ones you see in Holland not the modern ones) 4. ofcourse some good old offramps or whatever you call it in the usa for getting of the highway/expressway. The current version doesn't allow for any normal looking offramps. Here are some nice pictures of windmills I would like:

Just a heads up regarding the setting high. The better the computer you buy (grafics card) the higher you can set it and the longer it takes to start lagging, however you will never IMO be able to prevent lagging as the more you build the more grafics have to be processed the longer it will take. No matter how much money you through away on a new pc you will not be able to prevent that. So what pc should you buy to get the best result. You can either ask around here or take the game with you to the shop and start playing it there untill you are satisfied. I have a a NVidia 9600M GS grafics card in my laptop and am pritty satisfied but there are way better cards out there for alot more money. It all depends on what your standard is and what you can afford. BTW I'm an old school guy too and have played games since commodor 64 came out so I guess its always better then the good old days

btw great mods I installed unlocker4 plus some extra mods to use and they are allready a great help for me building my city

I didn't ask and never swear ~#@%^&*. So stop that just kidding i'm a pationed man so i'll wait till they bring out some update i guess

Ok I manually de-installed citiesXL and deactivated my registry key and then reinstalled it and activated my registry key again. Anyway it did work but did a fresh install just incase.

SecuROM que? whats that? Saw it flash by but isn't that just the activation of citiesXL? Well I have a legit version so no issue for me or is it? BTW are there trains in this game? Have been looking around and even when I use the cheat buton I can't seem to find the trains and trainstations.

I found an error/glitchin citiesXL 2011. When placing a blueprint and then not being satisfied the only way to get rid of it is returning to an earlier saved game. However when i do that the placed blueprint is not available anymore to place in your city. btw a quick question where are your cities saved to? I want to do a fresh install of windows and would like to save my cities (backup) to somewhere safe but I can't seem to find the saved cities.

yeah i guess i tried it out and did nothing in some city but now I see how it works

btw i saw a movie/film button next to the make picture buton. Doed this work and if so where does it leave the movie/film?

haha that was really funny but I do like the star roads in the 2nd photo. I will be making my version in my city. As soon as I have played enough I will post my city "journal".

btw nice city Cobhris wish I could visit it like I see on tons of youtube films. Pitty the online game is gone before I even had the chance to play it.

Yeah am doing that. Found a really nice map to re-start some serious game play. Just a pitty I can't make those large avenue go out of the city side by side. I was making them one way trafic as suggested (looks nice) but can't make 1 go in and 1 go out of the city next to each other. Would have been perfect for my city.

have you tried the bridges tutural? Anyway the bridges also make tunnels!

Well as I just played for 3 days it wasn't to bad but its getting time to stop trying things out and really start making a multimap and possibly a journal aswell.. Time for some serious gameplay!
