Functional modular airport
michaeldcannaday replied to Richie99's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I wish there was a functional custom made airport too. I have the same custom link that you listed above. I basically only see the airplanes take off & land but everything else stands still -
Official Simtropolis Expansion?

SimCity 4 / rushhour will never get old! -
I needs mods that don't need you to have SimCity 4 Delxue
michaeldcannaday replied to SUPERniceTODAY's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
it won't work...you'll need the rush hour installed first in order for the mods to work -
Automatic Turning Lanes
michaeldcannaday replied to kristoferpetit's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
The older NAM came with it, but for whatever reason the new NAM v31.2 did away with it... now you'll have to customize it by placing your own turning lanes instead of it doing automically -
Whew, I almost blew it!
michaeldcannaday replied to Prophet42's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I learned the hard way too, now I always save my cities & plugins to a seperate flash drive (just incase, you never know) Also there is a cheat money tree that I have, which I can give the link if you need it, that gives you a surplus of a million dollars once you plant it, and you can bulldoze it when you're tired of money coming in... I never run out of money Wish that was real life -
I've had NAM v31.2 for the past couple of months which included the avenue smooth 90 degree curve and also the same for the Maxis Freeway... All of the sudden, I'm missing the avenue smooth curve and I don't know how but I do still have the Maxis Freeway one. Do I need to reinstall NAM 31.2 (if so, do I need to delete the current NAM so it won't duplicate the menu items) or can I just reinstall the smooth curve from somewhere by itself? Just seeing what the best route is.

missing the smooth NAM/Ave Curve...
michaeldcannaday replied to michaeldcannaday's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I found it!!! It was under the 2 lane roadway curve option menu when it used to be under the round-a-bout.... thanks for telling me to look under the other menus... -
missing the smooth NAM/Ave Curve...
michaeldcannaday replied to michaeldcannaday's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
You're right, it's the FLEXCurve that come with the round-about menu...It was there but now suddenly it's missing but all the other round-about options are still there -
I simply can't connect the avenue with NAM
michaeldcannaday replied to Mcnamara's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
no problem, that's what we are all here for I've learned ALOT by just asking on the forums -
I have tons of plugins that I use that have been placed in my park folder when I'm playing the game and of course when you browse through that, and click out of it, and then back in to get another park item, it'll go back to the browsing point where you were ( hope that makes sense )...but if you go to the transportation or other folders, it'll go to the very top or start of that menu folder... I was wondering if there may be a cheat code or something that I can use to when I open my parks menu folder on my game, it'll go the very top instead of where I left off... ? Again I hope that makes sense

Here's the link (below the pics) to what you want to download to make custom airports. Just a warning, it takes time and patience but as long as you're up for the task, you can make yourself a very nice custom airport and there's also plugins to where you can make it a functional one also... pics of my international airport: Here's the link:

AVE smooth curves fillers
michaeldcannaday replied to borutaj's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
yes there's a puzzle piece that allows smooth curves for Avenues that is just like the pic that you included, but basically for wider roadways such as avenues. Have you installed NAM 31.2... ? It's included in that -
it does NOT replace the current Maxis Highway as long as you make sure when you download the NAM 31.2 (when it gives you all the options to check/uncheck in boxes), make sure you uncheck the box that says 'override Maxis Highway' or something in that nature. If you put a check box in it, all the Maxis Highways will turn into RHW which I hate using. Hope that helps Also just a reminder, put a check in the checkbox for the NAM options also

was there anything that you uploaded or changed in the game before you noticed the sidewalks had turned to dirt?

Question about trees (no mods)
michaeldcannaday replied to Mcnamara's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
there is a mod to upload for that, which I saw others had it too with their pics and once I downloaded it and saw it in my cities, I loved it...check out these links: -
Graphic issue with Parks
michaeldcannaday replied to kristoferpetit's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I had the same problem when I had to reinstall my game and it took me days to realize it was only my settings for my game... So easy but so hard to figure out lol -
the shoreline ploppable items can be picky about how you level the land along the water way...it just takes practice

How long does your game usually load?
michaeldcannaday replied to GeometryMath Algebra's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Windows XP Dell Vostro 1500 - 2.99 GB of RAM with almost 7GB of plugins ( I love uploading stuff for my game) Unfortunely it takes me roughly about 7 minutes to upload my game and an additional 5 minutes on average to open a city... one day I'll get more RAM for my PC so I can speed it up. -
country road without crossing
michaeldcannaday replied to Helge_94's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
wish we could make ramps and extras from the NAM instead of depending on RHW... -
Is there anyways to fix this (shown in the picture) ? Anytime I have a ramp that ajoins this type of roadway, underneath the maxis overpass, it'll automically mess up the lanes...

country road without crossing
michaeldcannaday replied to Helge_94's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
There is alot of exits & ramps on the RHW but I don't really like using the RHW, I'm so used to the NAM & Maxis roadways which I haven't found anything for those yet I hope there is that I can learn about -
how to speed up game loading time...
michaeldcannaday posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
How? It takes 10 minutes to load up my game alone and then about another 5 minutes to load up a city. I know the more plugin files that I have in my folder, the longer it'll take to upload the game but is there any other way to speed it up without having to modify my plugin folder? -
SimCity: Rush Hour is 10 years old today.
michaeldcannaday replied to Hellken's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
WOW! It's hard to believe it's been that long and it's still improving. I remember a week prior to the release date 10 years ago, I saw the ads and I was overly excited about getting it... time goes by too quick! -
how to speed up game loading time...
michaeldcannaday replied to michaeldcannaday's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
You can always go a step further and also remove any custom content (usually parts of sets) that you just don't use in game, so why even have them bogging down the system. EDIT: Plus, it seems the loading time for me is better WITHOUT the dependency files being DATpacked. I have all my plugins and regions saved on my flash drive, just incase and there's no telling how many times that has come in handy.. but are you saying to delete all my plugins from 'my documents' tab and just play the game using my flashdrive?? Just seeing if that's what you meant...I didn't know it would work that way
