  1. RHW Regional Transport Map

    I can finally demolish all the old maxis highways! yippee! thanks so much.
  2. Missing RHW 4.1 Peices

    replacing my NAM with the new one, and then re-installing RHW has fixed the problem. Thanks! -Nick
  3. Hello All, I've been having issues with Real Highway 4.1. I just recently downloaded this, the cleanitol was good and I installed it. Ther eare a few issues I've run into. First of all, there are no neigbour connectors under the neigbour connectors sub-menu, only the start peices. Nor do I have any of the esthetic peices. I have tried re-installing, which didn't help. I run deluxe on widows 7. Any ideas?
  4. Is SC5 ever coming out? no. so how about having another shot at the Simtropolis 1000 project?
  5. PEG SKI RESORT

    Absolutely brilliant! My only concern is that PEG is getting so good at this it will be impossible to satisfy people's appetite for more!
  6. NESCO Government Center Transit Enabled

    It looks good- could we have a better picture and maybe some stats?
  7. DuQuesne Heavy Shipyards

    what a fantastic way to bow out!
  8. Airport signs

    where exactly could you find the tutorial?
  9. Airport signs

    Fantastic. Great finishing touch for the airport.
  10. Mexico and United States

    Brazil is the other great emerging country of our time. It has a growth rate even higher than that of Mexico, and is in a situation comprable to where China was 20 years ago, and India 10 years ago. Those three countries (the BICs, for short) are going to drive almost all the growth in the world economy for the forseeable future. Within 30 years, large parts of Brazil will be on par with the US or near to it, and it will, politically and militarily dominate South America. Mexico could already be in a dominant position, but it tends to be overshadowed by it's neighbor the US, so it's potential influence can't show.

There are many gender-neutral possibilities that don't belong in the 19th century. quote> I thought the King James Bible was earlier than that. quote> Yeah, 16th century.
  12. The North American Power Grid

    I think solar panels have become pretty much standard on sattelites now. No, I can't think of any big new breakthroughs since then. Who knows when the next one will come around, but for now we can keep ourselves pre-occupied with improving what exists already. Yeah, they'll probably sell out AECL, especially with the government so strapped for cash. Hopefully it'll run better under private management.
  13. The North American Power Grid

    Hopefully not the same AECL guys that would be developing our nuclear power plants? No wonder the public is scared to death of nuclear power, with that sort of thing happening. I like the idea of mini nuke plants. Besidses clean and nearly un-limited energy, it would make the grid more reliable by dispersing the energy sources, and reliability has obviously has been a problem lately. We're still left with nuclear waste though, wich is the other source of opposition to that kind of power.

  15. The North American Power Grid

    Originally posted by: metarvo The problem with the wind farms, though, is the fact that the windiest areas are usually the least populated, equating to lower power consumption in those areas. Milesof new transmission lines and several upgrades are planned for the next few years, and it may turn out that the power lines cost more than the actual wind generators. It's similar to a city that grows really fast without very many new roads, leading to traffic jams. quote> Yeah, they probably will. Wind power is not a great option, but everybody's afraid of nuclear power, and solar power isn't that great either, so if we want to get off fossil fuels, we aren't left with much choice. We're lucky here in Manitoba with loads of hydro power, so we've got some of the greenest and cheapest energy in the world. That just isn't an option for most places though. It's time for people to overcome their fear of nuclear power and adopt this clean and plentiful source of energy.
