HWDSB - Board of Education http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2028/2432712144_b2cb49561f.jpg?v=0 http://imagebin.ca/view/Nq0CRmV.html http://imagebin.ca/view/CAL4NH.html http://imagebin.ca/view/n9B9ng.html Description: A board of education building. A centralized location for the facilitation of education over a region of land. Quick Facts Total number of schools Elementary: 96 Secondary: 18 Total number of students Elementary: 34,305 Secondary: 18,535 Total number of staff Academic: 6,235 Business and Support: 1,066 Students traveling by bus: 16,000 Why this would be beneficial for the game or community: A slight increase to the school bus radius and a slight increase to education, but at the cost of running the facility. Perhaps a requirement of having X connected regions, the city hall, the main library, the major art museum, and so on. It's not a school, it's not a library, it's not a museum, but it's good for education. If you need more pictures, let me know and I'll see what I can find. Thanks in advance to whomever takes on this request.

Maybe a moderator would be kind as to move it to the proper place. Also saying "it (omnibus) makes reference" is same as saying nothing... It is way to vague. Omnibus is a rather large collection of tutorials written in a quite long stretch of time by numerous contributors... Whenever you ask some particular question it should either be totally self contained (include all relevat info right there) or be accompanied with a direct link to such a material. Otherwise the chances are you'll not get answer, or "to the point" answer.quote> Okay. How to Install STEX BATs, Lots and Maps Q I see all the props on a downloaded lot from the STEX, but the building, why is this happening? A This is simply because you are missing the building and vechicle props from the official maxis site, you can find those here, and here.quote> See, no links. I tried the maxis site and got nowhere. So, do I need these or not? Thanks

Before I go installing BAT lots from the STEX, I thought I'd read the omnibus. It made reference to a buildings and vehicles props download, which was linked, but these links appear to have been removed. Do I still need these files, and where can I get them? Thanks

how do you get your DEM data? i've been looking for data for the hamilton area for a couple days now with little success. thanks

adding this to your shortcut works equally as well... -CPUCount:1 -CPUPriority:high

Sounds good. Take a gander. (Stuff is on the left because I changed it back to see if LHD would make a difference.) Thanks again

They drive on the right. (They were on the left until I did the stuff in the omnibus) I'm pretty stumped. It's not like the city is very big either. They're just lazy. edit: one thing I noticed with NAM, is that the populous doesn't really use the road anymore, everyone jumps on the subway, with the exception of a small few people and freight trucks (didn't put in any freight rail yet).

I don't believe so...

After installing NAM and Sim Z (I tried medium and ultra) to combat traffic problems, I'm having a lot of problems with abandonment (commute) on everything, R C and I. I didn't have any problems like that before installing NAM (I have no other plugins), so I'm wondering if I did something wrong. Zoning is good, and so is mass transit. I even tried changing zoning density, and mixing C into my R zones. Any ideas? Thanks
