um Google Earth?

try breaking the cap with Census Repository Facility, if capping is your problem

hi, leemonk if the trains don't work after you have installed NAM, probably thats becz it takes longer for your sims to travel by train. maybe your stations aren't placed right? for your trains station to work, make sure the stations are positioned near the heart of your zones, so most of your sims can walk to work after they get off the train, alternatively, you can place subway stations/bus stops near train stations. for monorail, you might want to add some parking garage near the stations to encourage use, in additional to the above also, try eliminating all road/subways connecting you zones. the NAM is a more efficient pathfinding engine than the vanilla game. so even if your sims are not using the train, they are still arriving to work faster trains arriving even tho no one is not using them is actually quite realistic. hope it helps, Nomis

i even re-plop the airport and still it wont help. is there anything i can do? is there a mod that allow me to manually upgrade the airport? thanks Nomis

um...well cant reli see your big city but from my experience with tall buildings, first u would need a sufficient amount of demand (not a problem with your mod), a large enough zone for it to develope (if you zone 1x1 all the time they wont pop, my experience suggest 4x4 or 4x3 would usually suffice) then it takes time, until your city reach a certain stage. also, desirability is a big big BIG issue, check the desirability map, look for CO$$$ or CO$$ stuff, i usually pop a landmark or two in the heart of my commercial area to speed up the stage hopping process. the park effect is quite important as i found out from experience, even if you desirability looks quite green i found that CO$$$ buildings wont grow until i have park effect. i usually plant $h!t loads of trees on empty lots and cross my finger on the next thing that grows on it. also plant trees wherever you can, use god mod if u like, but i prefer to hold down my mouse and jz move the cursor around until my wrist is too tired to move. u can also try out parks and stuff, but i found them not as efficient somewhat (maybe its just me) hope it helps, Nomis

yes i am but im using the no cd crack as i have lost my cd when i moved last year nomis

i thought the disease research center is like a regional hospital. however, i could never got the usage to more than 7k, but my other larger medical center are all over capacity. i have to build 15+ large medical center for a city around 300k pop. since the disease research center lowers desirability so much, is it optimal to build it? Nomis

masochist, omg...that looks sosososossososo neat

guys, i ran it just as it is for 30 years, nth pops i didnt turn off anything and i get all the msgs for municiple airports. dun know y... Kahara, i know, but everything would be different if it gets a proper upgrade. btw, is there a manual way to upgrade my airports?

Originally posted by: tungston Each of the 3 game default airports have 3 levels. As the airport nears capacity it will start to dilapidate [turn dingy]. When it gets really close to, or at capacity the game should offer an upgrade until the third level is reached.quote> dingy like this?

Originally posted by: ewd76 I don't know. Maybe you have enough demand to fill that one to capacity, but not enough demand for another airport. I just realized yesterday that my regional airport was filled(after a previous upgrade) and added an International. Amazing that a city of 100,000 needs an International Airport. the only way I noticed it is because it had turned black. As soon as I opened up the new airport it became shiny again.quote> i have like 300k middle to high wealth job. so i guess the small international airport with 120k capacity would be too small?

i finally updated my large municipal airports to small international airports. however, after their capacity quickly got saturated, there were no notification to upgrade it to a larger airport. does it mean that's it? there wont be a larger airport? thanks, Nomis

thx guys i got the rhw mod but didnt exactly tried it out yet will check over at sc4devotion for inspiration, maybe you will find my project up sometime later, cheers nomis
