  1. OK that explains it in words of Dr Smith on the original Lost in Space "the pain, the pain". LOL
  2. There is a construction icon you have to place and run for two months before using the runways/taxiways it is just extra steps i thought were added or i could be wrong.
  3. That is not what I was talking about.
  4. Game was working OK yesterday, but when I try to place any of the RCI lots the original tile with the direction arrow is blank. Can any one help? I am trying to place a commercial zone piece in the game it is just blank no blue color or arrow at all.

  5. Placement arrows missing

    Thanks.

  6. Placement arrows missing

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues

    i have the patchable version from Origin. I may have thought that something is wrong ' but after watching a couple YouTube videos my problem is not an actual issue because the same thing happens in their video tutorials. Guess I got confused using custom plopable lots the way they are placed in the game and placing the RCI zone lots.

    i have reinstalled from Origin the SimCity 4 deluxe game ran diagnostic for direct-x and intel graphics driver no problems found. Still same issue or I think there is an issue but there is none. After I place the blank tile the lot becomes blue with the arrow pointing towards the ave.

  8. Airport runways

    deanva posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    Is it me or has the the way runways and taxiway items are placed changed? I now have to click on the actual menu item to place pieces instead of using the same piece more than at one time. Wanted to place a few 8 tile taxiway pieces and had to go to the menu icon and select it each time before I could place the taxiway several times in a row it slowed my building the airport a lot.

    It might be that I forgot how the runways and taxiways work when placing them in the game.

    Not sure if that would help at all I use to be able to place one piece multiple times, now after I place one piece i have to go back to the menu and select it again to place it and repeat it for each time I want to place it in the game.
  13. I want to make a sign for SimCity 4, i.e. road sign how are the text and symbols made like an arrow pointing in different direction one would see. Like an arrow pointing 45 degrees to the left or right.
  14. Where is there a good BAT tutorial in making things like road signs with photos or even a video? The tutorial by MandelSoft has the illustrations missing?

  15. Model 03 B Overhead Highway Sign for Ground Highway

    deanva commented on artforce1's file in 3ds Models

    Where is the tutorial for this can anyone provide a direct link and not to the general BAT workshop page.
  16. I want to know if it is possible to import files between two BAT projects? For an example I have a project that is saved as A. I want to design in a new part for A lets call it B in a new window then after designing it be able to import it into A. Is this possible and how would I do it and still be able to modify B once i get it into A? I am using G Max game pack BAT from sc4tool.

  17. Round objects shape

    deanva posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    Should anything round like a cylinder laying horizontal actually be oval in shape by 133% in height to look round in the game?

  18. How wide are your trains? I am trying to redesign an locomotive I made but no longer have the original BAT file.

      Hi Deanva, 

       it depends on where they are from - the UK is the smallest  2.8-2.9m , then German/Euro 3.0-3.1m , then US 3.2-3.3m

        cheers Ron

      ok I am thinking of redesigning some of my trains i made for a possible theme park in SimCity 4. My original BAT files are not on my computer and they look kind of small in height probably didn't use the 133% in height.

  19. Can't find it?... Ask here!

    deanva replied to JakeMD's topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    How wide should a train be in SimCity4 to fit on the tracks?
  20. How do you determine what type of jobs are needed from a no job zot after using the query tool? The Prima guide says the first is current jobs / current occupancy but not what type of jobs are needed. Remember there are CS CO jobs, also different level manufacturing jobs. The wealth factor in next row does not help. How do you know what to zone or if you use ploppable buildings with jobs to use? Anyone have any thoughts?

  21. Night Lighting

    deanva posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    How do you change the intensity of the light cones if possible? i am referring to something like the free spot, want to make it brighter.
  22. OK i will try that thanks.
  23. That does not help sorry.
  24. Is there a way to apply texture to only one surface like a box and not the entire box?

  25. LBT Hotels Model Files

    deanva commented on Heblem's file in Dependencies

    Wish the Hilton Garden Inn had night lighting.
