Crash while loading any city tile (Suddenly)
Madmartigan posted a topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Been playing for ages now just fine. No new plugins, no new mods. I'm playing on GoG and suspect that this is the issue: "Cloud Sync Failed: Cloud sync is delayed due to a heavy load. It will restart next time when you launch the game." I've tried launching the game again, changing my config, etc. I saw someone online had to exit GoG and then CTRL+ALT+DEL to close a background program that stays open, which was the case for me so I tried it. Still not working. Mainly I'm just wondering if anyone else is having this same issue while using GoG? Anyone wondering my config is: - Arguments: -intro:off -CustomResolution:enabled -r1920x1080x32 -d:directx -f -CPUcount:1 - My Label: SimCity 4 (Windowed Mode) -

So I tried what you and whte_rbt recommended. I backed up my plugins and then deleted them all. After sorting through 50% by 50% I eventually found the culprit - NAM (As you suggested it might be). I tried finding the 4gb patch but it wasn't quite working. So I uninstalled and re-installed NAM and now everything is running smooth! Thanks for all the help guys! -

Darn I really thought this was gonna work. I tried uninstalling completely from GoG as well and reinstalling on Steam as another solution, still the same issue. Not sure what could have possibly changed, this is a total mystery. It's still crashing on loading a city (The messaging at the top even changes once or twice so it looks like it's working). I even deleted that last 2 weeks worth of plugins. This is really mysterious... Update: Well leave it to me to comment and then immediately try something that works lol. So I backed up my plugins folder and then completely deleted it and it works now. So there is a plugin that I guess has suddenly become incompatible with the game... Thanks for the help! -
I can't believe I'm only seeing this now. This is literally the most incredible thing I've ever witnessed. You don't even work for EA and you did something they never could (and maybe never would) in all these years. I just tested it out on a long, long, long, long, long lost city. It not only doesn't crash but it doesn't even lag anymore. I am honestly floored by this. This is incredible, I wish I could give it 10 stars. You're a life saver! Thank you so much.

It's really such a shame that this game has so many issues. It's such a brilliant game. I myself experience the same thing. When my population hits about 30k-40k it becomes increasingly choppy, takes longer to save and usually crashes while saving (Sometimes the save works, sometimes it doesn't). I've tried pretty much everything under the sun to get the crashing to stop or at least minimize. It's just something I deal with now and unfortunately it's made me have to avoid making any large metropolis. Crying shame that EA won't just spend a couple of months releasing a new version, how much work would it be for them? If they could guarantee a new, patched version that would not crash I would pay 20$-30$, maybe even more.

This is the first city in my new region of Birkshire, ruled by King Madmartigan. Abigail was designated the first mayor of the first official city, the city of Sulford. Sulford is known for the pink wild flowers that grow there (As well as the always incredible work of @mattb325). King Madmartigan was so impressed with Abigail's performance as mayor, he built her a big house near the water where a ton of these pink wild flowers grow. Here are some shots that King Madmartigan took from his high throne. An overview of the city: Mayor Abigail's house: The main town:

This is part of a large city I built some time ago (Population based on the 2020 census ~ 615,000). Something happened to all my trees! I call it Picard's Island. Very exclusive real estate (Not even Trump has a tower here!).

Apologies if something like this already exists, I looked high and low. I see a lot of tutorials and pictures providing some amazing content. Really the work some people do is absolutely beautiful. In all this content one thing that is consistent is the volume of traffic I see on content creators roads, even when there are apparently no buildings nearby. How do I increase the volume of cars on my roadways?
-
Appreciate the reply, I will check it out. Thanks!
-
It looks like removing those three files along with replacing my Standard.bat with your Radical.bat has definitely increased the traffic volume. The only issue is that the cars disappear as quickly as they appear.
-
Ok let me test this one out first, my file is NetworkAddonMod_Automata_Plugin_Standard.dat so I'm guessing Radical is an increase! You gave me the idea to search "Automata", and I found I also have another folder in the plugins called PAMv2 that contains 3 files; Persistent_Automata_Low.dat Persistent_Automata_Med.dat Persistent_Automata_Hi.dat I might move this out first as it seems like an old thing I may have downloaded, perhaps interfering. Appreciate all the help!
-
Hey Corina, ya I mean the automata. I have NAM installed but I believe it's an older version... I tried installing the most recently updated version however i'm having issues with it, it freezes every time I try to load a city. I had to restore the backup version. By the way I'm actually looking at your terrain shoppe right now

Sorry to post this here but I assume most people who use Simtropolis also use SC4Devotion. Has anyone else had trouble registering? I'm not getting the verification email, nothing in inbox or junk folder. I can't figure out what the SC4Devotion email is so that maybe I can add it to my contacts since that might be the problem. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
