Hi all, First of all I gotta say this site is really awesome, I just discovered sim city 4 goodness and I think I'm addicted Gamewise, I 'm trying to understand how the game works so I though I'd follow a tutorial in the omnibus ("Making money the easy way") and I'm having issues. I like the idea of putting industrial in one region and doing suburbs in the other etc.. but when following his tutorial my sims seem to not notice that there is plenty of work in the neighboor region. When I get to approximatively 5000 population my industrial city stops popping industry on the zones and in my suburb city the population is whining about not having any jobs.. Both my regions are connected by an avenue. At that point the people start leaving and my population slowly decreases. Anyone has an idea why? Also if this tutorial does not work could anyone direct me to a functionning one or general tips on how to make my city work. Thanks

Awesome work, your models are of a very high quality!

ah okay I'll try that

My problem is that it would only load dat files that were located at the root of my plugins folder, if I had sub folder then it would not load them..

oh ok awesome

Ilives Propviewer Hi all, I'm quite new in the SC4 scene and I think I found a very nice hobby with a lot of possiblities! I'm starting my first mayor diary soon and I've been toying with the Lot Editor. I've noticed that finding the correct props in the Lot Editor is not that convenient, the list is huge, the search is not that great and there is no preview. After a bit of research I found information about Ilives Propviewer, so I downloaded it and started using it a bit. The concept is really nice, a convenient list of props under the actual dat file it comes from with a nice preview, the only thing is that the paths where it search for dat file seems to be bugged. I'm not sure if Ilives is still active in the scene, but If it is possible I'd gladly modify the code of the program to make it work. I'm a programmer and I know various languages so that'd be no issue for me. I could make a new one but that'd require a lot of research on the various sim city file format tho, are there any repository for such thing by the way? Hope someone can point me in the right direction ! Leo

I like what you did there metasmurf

Your buildings are really awesome ! I just downloaded everything you had on the STEX I hope more will come as I've seen quite a few buildings in this thread that are not released Great job!

Thanks for the replies al l I have another question now if someone could help me. How can I put walls under my Highway ramps circled in red?

Is there anyway to modify my game so its right hand driving instead of left hand? I'm from Switzerland but I bought my game in the UK?

Worked like a charm, I was wondering why no one used my passenger rail before

Thanks everybody, I performed the tutorial will see if it works

Thanks for these it will help a lot

Thanks for the info, I switched to the Simulator Z. I have a problem in my region now, some of my sims cry about not having enough job, but in my industrial city I hardly have any industrial demand so I can't really make more jobs. If make more residential in my suburbs then people will generate some industrial demand but not enough for all my jobless sim, so I'm kinda stuck in a vicious circle that I can't get out of. Any advice on how to generate more jobs when there is hardly any demand?

I'm having a lot of unhandled expection when trying to use your application. I've installed the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 maybe its because of the .NET report viewer I do not have it installe I Think.

really great job there

Thanks for the advice! I was wondering which engine to use when installing the NAM and I think I selected Simulator B, should I reinstall and use Simulator Z? Also there is an option to select Automata, what is it exactly?

you did really a good job at recreating Switzerland. Its funny looking at your regions I could recognize where I live, I'm from Neuchatel on the lake border Keep up the good work on this ! Can't wait to see the rest.

thanks guys. Well my city has mostly R$ and R$$ no R$$$ as far as I know, I was wondering maybe if it was not simply a matter of expanding my residential city more or something, I'll try this because I really like the idea of having industrial in another region and residential in another.

very nice I must say! Just wondering how do you do that because I'm new to simcity. I guess your city is not "working" in the simcity sense?
