Hello all, first I would like to thank you for this useful website & forum, and also for your time. I haven't been playing SC4 for a while, and as a lover of this game (I have been playing this since the first, on SNES ...), I wanted to get back to SC4. I have a new computer since the last time I have played. I have a bug with the view of new regions, but I have not found topics related to this kind of problem. 1. The version of Sim City 4 : 1.0.272.0 , no mods. 2. A map I have dl img263.imageshack.us/img263/9274/kalio1248121459.png A map I've created to train img299.imageshack.us/img299/484/totozone1248124003.png 3. Intel Core 2Duo E8400 2Go RAM ATI RADEON HD 3870x2 Drivers up to date 4. I have a 1920*1080 screen. I tried to change the resolution to 800*600 or anything else, also modifing the graphical options, or trying windowed mode : no change. I have no bug when playing the cities, excepted that on the first region (first screen) I cannot easily select the little areas as the "white-blue squares" of the biggest near are in front of the "white-blue square" of the little ones. Changing regions options (cities limits/names) do nothing. Hope someone will know how to fix this. Thank for your help. G.

Hello, thks for your replys. Yes this version is the (french) vanilla version updated with patch 2. I finally found how to avoid this graphical bug by reinstalling the map (grayscale jpg) I've downloaded in windowed mode with a "classic" resolution (1280 * 1064). As I have the same bug with a map I created, I think that SC4 & my graphic card don't like that I manipulate map in an "exotic" resolution ( when I reinstalled the game, I have immediately change the exe link with a custom resolution). I haven't made any test to verify this hypothesis, but after playing a couple of hours (in windowed mode, finally it's better ; ) ), no bug appeared ... So it's solved, or avoided. I can change the tittle of the subject but as seattlesonics4life is still concerned, I'll wait a litlle ...
