Personally, I like McMansions a lot. They are the perfect home for a large family. They look very expensive and at the same time you dont have to be rich to own one. They typically cost at around $500,000 and up. You can easily own one on a $100,000 a year salary. It is my dream to own one someday as well. Well it does not have to be a McMansion per say but any house in that style and definetely at that price.

How on earth do you limit the train length?

Date: 12/28/2005 10:28:37 PM Author: Swamper77 HamsterTK, There is a different property that affects the lengths of the freight trains. Modifying the commute train length also affects the passenger and monorail trains. -Swamper77 Swamper, Vester and I want to create 4 different NetworkAddonMod_Automata_Plugin_*****.dat files. One for each version of the NAM. We want to create these dat files that will have train lengths 2-4 cars. These will be optional for the Pittsburgh T trolley and people who want the trams that have 2-4 cars. There will of course be a disclaimer that the passenger and monorail trains will also change. I guess it depends if you use the monorail and passenger trains more or if you use the trams more. I do wish that we could have it both ways. I guess its probably better to have a longer tram then to have a short passenger train. Although we want to be able to give people an option. -

(BTW, the tram looks great, though.) Oh I didnt know. Hehe. Well lets say I put it again for anyone who does not know how to do it yet. -

Attention!!!! Vester and I have figured out how to change the length of the train. It is very simple. We were trying to figure out how to get the Pittsburgh T tram to have one engine and 2 cars so it will be more like real life. So here is how we did it. First of all, it depends on which version of NAM you have installed, but there is only one file like this in each version. Go to your NetworkAddonMod folder in the MyDocuments/SimCity4/Plugins folder. Now look for the following file: NetworkAddonMod_Automata_Plugin_Radical.dat I have the radical version of NAM installed so mine is radical. If you have the standard version of NAM installed look for the same file except it should say standard. Then open this file in ILive reader and change the Commute Train Length property. Click on it and change the hex values to the length that you want. For example we wanted the T trolley to have about 3 cars. Meaning first one is the engine and then 2 cars. So we put these hex values. 0x02,0x04 This is 2-4 cars. I think you get the idea. Vester will put more information about this later. Here is the proof that it works http://www.imgcity.net/server/primary/3_cars_Ttrolley_from_Johnb1.jpg align=baseline> -

Wow that is beautiful Simman. It's so green. Also excellent work on the terraforming. It looks very realistic. Can't wait to see what you do with this. -
