my game crashing.. I hate that.. and I can't pull out which Plugin it is causing it.. I might have to blow it up and restart.. (NOT FUN)

are those large high rises from the HK building set? I really like the CJ.. keep it up.

Did a digital download from Game Stop. I went to download it and they are having TECHNICAL difficulties! NICE!! Been waiting years to play this, and now I can't.. THANKS A FREAKING LOT

thanks man! I appreciate it.. I love this game, and I will probably continue to play it.. unless Cities XL

Originally posted by: thiosk I'm replying to this thread as I have made some fresh observations (and, incidentally, this was the top of the google list when I searched for "crash to desktop simcity 4 simtropolis") My system is highly advanced compared to system specs, im running a core i7 on vista 64 bit. Setting the processor affinity works well in many cases for dual and multicore computers. However, as an above poster stated, this will often only reduce-- not eliminate-- crashing. As my game progressed, things got downright sluggish. So after three bouts of crashing while trying to put a damnable monorail over a bunch of highways and avenues, I said some nasty language and opened the graphics options. I set the graphics acceleration from hardware to software-- this fixed my problem entirely, in conjunction with the dual core affinity check. I highly reccomend software acceleration if you are using a newer video card. My game performance went through the roof and I have experienced no further crashes. quote> I am not really sure how to do any of this? I need a line by line break down. I am not a cpu savvy person, at least I thought I was until reading this thread. How do I change my Hardware to software ??
