Hey Everyone, I took a look to see if this had been posted already but didnt see it. My game has been chunking graphics for quite some time now. Initially it was not doing this, but my hard drive crashed, and when I reinstalled theere was this bad graphics chunking problem. It looks like this article here: http://greginthedesert.net/2003/07/sim-city-4-mini-review-and-graphic-problems/ Anyways Im on an intel imac with ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro. Any ideas?

For those intersted here is the fix: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=392190 It did work!!! I was highly impressed For iMacs with the ATI Radeon HD 2600 you need to go into the main application folder, then "SimCity 4 Data" folder : 1. Open "Video Cards.sgr" with TextEdit 2. Locate the end of the list of "vendor "ATI" 0x1002" 3. Add this line to the end, but before the word "end" : card 0x9583 "Radeon HD2600" 4. Save and close. 5. Open "Graphic Rules.sgr" 6. Locate the ATI rules, near the bottom like so: stringMatch cardIdentity "*7?00*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*8?00*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9000*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9100*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9200*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9300*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9400*" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon VE" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon Mobility" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon FireGL" 7. You will add just one line: stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon HD2600" 8. It should look like this: stringMatch cardIdentity "*7?00*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*8?00*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9000*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9100*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9200*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9300*" stringMatch cardIdentity "*9400*" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon HD2600" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon VE" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon Mobility" stringMatch cardIdentity "ATI, Radeon FireGL" 9. Save and close.
