How to connect small international airport to road
michaeldcannaday replied to Thinksamuel's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
it sucks that some plops don't have road access. I like the ones that have connections already made, in which those you can see traffic go in and out. It's kinda retarded that no houses whatsoever have road connections. Looks like they have to drive over top the sidewalk to get onto their driveways from the roadway Although I have a custom built airport and it has connections from rail & roadways...not sure about the default game ones though since I no longer have those. -
How to build this bridge...?
michaeldcannaday replied to michaeldcannaday's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
THANKS!! I haven't downloaded the new Nam 31 yet, not knowing how many bugs and tweets need to be done but if you guys think it's good enough now to download, let me know -
How to build this bridge...?
michaeldcannaday replied to michaeldcannaday's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
thanks! I have looked up alot of youtube videos in the past on how to create and build alot of roadways...it has come in handy just the hard part is trying to find where to download the right versions of roadways to use such as NAM or RHW -
Can I make folders for my plugins folder?
michaeldcannaday replied to UndercoverNinja12's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
yes that is perfectly fine...the downfall is, the more folders you have with plugsins within those sub-folders, the slower your game will go...just think of it this way, you have one 'plugin' folder and have everything posted on that one folder, the computer only has to search in that one folder while the game is loading & playing... On the other hand, sub-folders with more folders or files in each one, your computer has to dig and open all each folder which slows it down... -
All that I can seem to get to pop up when I want have a bridge is the normal 4 lane ( 2 lanes in each direction) default roads except for the interstate highways... What about for 6 lane highways or larger, are there any bridges for those from NAM that are the same amount of traffic lanes? The link shows a picture of the roadway I'm talking about... Does the new NAM 31 have it by chance??
-
if anybody needs the money tree, just private msg me and I can email you the actual plugin so all you have to do is save it to your plugin folder...I don't believe the orginial plugin is available for download online anymore since the orginial simcity website isn't up anymore
-
Is there a such thing available yet?? There's lots of highway signs, road signs that have numbers and exit names, but is there any that you can put your own names on there? --- Topic moved to Builders' Forum -timmie

Rock for Shorelines
michaeldcannaday replied to larryparadise's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Hey there are a few different rock shorelines...if you don't mind, can you post a pic so I know which one you're referring to and I'll be glad to email you the plugin for it if you'd like...? That's if you wanna private msg me the pic and your email and I can send you what you need... -
I have the money tree plugin from the orginial simcity website from years ago, which gives me a million dollars each year that I have the money tree plopped in my city. I couldnt do without it! If you need the plugin, private msg me and I'll be glad to send you the plugin itself to your email or whichever since its difficult to find by searching on websites now. by the way, the one that I have is for simcity rushhour (NOT the 2013 new game) and it shows up in the park menu. It looks like a palm tree.

that dosen't suprise me... I've been getting that quite often on simtropolis.

A question about prisons
michaeldcannaday replied to Mutilated_Pixie's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
are there any links to where I can download a plugin to a custom or realistic prison or pentitenary? The ones on the default game are just small and dont look all that realistic. You can custom build an airport, seaport, malls, military bases, water parks...what about jails?? -
Ever noticed when you have farms and the roadways you place that follows them, there is automically the highest traffic areas you'll see? Come on, that's not real life.... Anybody know of any plugin that would do the opposite to where it's less traffic like in real life? I saw this link thinking it may have something to do with it... would this do it?

How to get malls to build
michaeldcannaday replied to CaptRobau's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
from my years with Simcity, if you allow commerical, or basically anything grow naturally, nothing ever looks realistic and is never in the right place either...Plopping has saved my city! -
How to get malls to build
michaeldcannaday replied to CaptRobau's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I have lots of malls and commerical buildings developed all around them, although everything that I've placed didn't grow, I plopped them there...are you looking to do that, or to have them naturally grow?? If you want them to naturally grow, good luck with that, it may never happen lol That's why I plop everything that I want in a paticular place. It looks so much better and realistic that way -
I found this link where you can make your own custom arrows for roadways for RHW...but does anybody know of this that comes with NAM instead???

Highway Interchange Help
michaeldcannaday replied to jlouhill's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I use NAM but not RHW and I've learned a little fun tricks here and there but still it limits on the modern day intersections... I wish there was more to choose from or even make custom intersections instead of the defaults that were created. Hopefully one day there will be something like that A great tip that has come in handy is looking on youtube for NAM or even simcity rush hour roadways and seeing how people create their roads...if that helps -
Does anybody have any idea what these 2 billboard look-a-like flashy things are from? They are popping up all over on my residental and industrial areas, which they used to not ever be around. I've must of downloaded some type of plugin that caused this affect that I can't figure out. Does anybody have a possible idea what plugin could cause these types of problems?

connecting bridges to a neighboring city
michaeldcannaday posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Is there a way?? The only way I can figure out is to build a small island at the edge of both cities where the bridge crosses so it'll be a landmass so I can connect but is there a way just to build a connection over water instead with bridges?? -
connecting bridges to a neighboring city

is that the only way?? -
abandoned towers, etc.
michaeldcannaday replied to jasminelynn2010's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I have the same issue, I'll have lots of commerical, industry all around and the residents say the commute is too long and go unemployeed...but yet there's lots of transportation such as bus routes, rail & highways... I guess my residents dont like to even drive a single mile when all along in my city, the gas prices at my gas stations never change unlike real life...lazy people is all I can say -
Serious issues with unemployment
michaeldcannaday replied to Essex's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
it seems like everytime I have a city with tons of commerical & industrial including plenty of transportation ( roadways, interstates, rail & bus routes), the residents refuse to work even 1 mile away. Lazy is all I can say...even knowing that gas prices never ever change on my citys -
