  1. Forced Sterilization

    Originally posted by: Boggy1 What would probably work better is for adoption to become a social norm. So that people adopt children instead of having their own kids.quote> But where would you get the kids to adopt from? Plus, the more kids you have, the more tax is put on you. It should be cumulative. So it would be almost impossible to have more than, say, 7 kids surviving on a low budget. Besides, five or more kids is generally pretty darn immoral in my opinion. quote> The budget apparently isn't sufficent anyway if the kids children need welfare.
  2. Introduction

    This CJ is loosley inspired by this post by Odainsaker. I will try to simulate the growth of a city from a small village, possibily to a metropolis. Please post any ideas and suggestions about what might happen next, i.e. factors and events that might influence it or simply what I could do next. Evans Valley is simply the name of the map I use - I hope it's okay if I use it.
  3. Let's see your Ctrl+V

    (Build Date: May 28 2009)
  4. Show us your Downtown!

    There are a lot of Maxis buildings, but I think it looks good anyway:
  5. Downloading items

    Put them into My Documents\Sim City 4\Plugins
  6. Question

    Do you expect to get a question for that answer or what?
  7. Let's see your Ctrl+V

    Everytime I stumble upon this thread I have a password or similar in my clipboard...
  8. Update Warning

    It might have worked anyway.
  9. While trying to build a single-point urban interchange, I discovered the OWR over RHW-4 puzzle piece is, unlike the other OWR over RHW pieces, only pathed in one direction. That makes building of overpasses of any kind with these puzzle pieces impossible. I suspect that's a bug.
  10. Thanks. Now my interchange looks and behaves like it is supposed to.
  11. Travel Game

    Stuttgart, Germany
  12. Lot orientation arrows

    Maybe it's related to the detail settings.
  13. Try again later, it happens all the time.
  14. Farms in a big city

    There is a commercial building that looks like a farm somewhere on the STEX for that purpose.

  16. Can I get my city back?

    You could recover a backup - if you had one.
  17. Full Pictures

    Maybe you have installed and enabled a dictionary for the wrong langugage.
  18. Wolfram Alpha screencast

    Now that sounds interesting. Especially considering we're doing integrals right now
  19. Wolfram Alpha screencast

    It's just a convient way to research facts and statistics. What's so great about it?
  20. Avatar Caption Game

  21. Change a letter Game

    stamp
  22. Desktop.. Everyone has one of these!

    I generally use my Desktop only as temporary storage. For some reason I had disabled icons completely when I made the shoot, that's why there is not even the recycler on the picture.
  23. Neighbourg connections

    Just build more or higher capacity (highway) connections.
  24. Is Opera better than Firefox?

    Originally posted by: djrules5454_simtropolisedition Either one is fine, in my opinion. FF has a far larger share of users, and theoretically could be targeted more as a result, but I use it myself. If the browser process stops running when you close the browser, it's fine with me (none of Microsoft's Internet Explorer browsers stop the iexplorer.exe process when you close out of it). IE also has huge compatibility issues when compared to the other four major browsers (Chrome, Safari, FF, and Opera). FF 3 scored a 71/100, lowest of the non-Microsoft major browsers. However, the beta version of Safari 4 and the Alpha version of Opera 10 scored perfect 100s on the test. Chrome wasn't much higher than FF 3 (79/100), and Safari 3 mustered a 75. FF 3.5 did manage a 93/100. By comparison, IE 7 managed a 12/100, and IE 8 scored a 20/100. Basically, any of the aforementioned browsers except any version of Internet Explorer.quote> Are you talking about Acid 3? That doesn't test compatibiltiy but support for newest standards, it has no significance at all for the end-user.
