Added NAM version 32, game now crashes to desktop after few minutes
NCGAIO replied to Grayham's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
If you are interested only in modifying traffic simulation parameters then you can try the tool by Goaskin for have a more effective control. Look for SC4Config in http://sourceforge.net/home.html -
Another glitch in region view
NCGAIO replied to Deluxe Addict's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Well ... in this case I obviously recommend staying with the wife and abandon the game of course ! As you should continue in the forums leave the recommendation to avoid double posting so if you forget something in the last post use the edit option. Ok! NC. -
Another glitch in region view
NCGAIO replied to Deluxe Addict's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Although I agree in part is worth remembering that is not necessarily the end of SC4 because the game can still run on older environments. (I have no problem running it on a pentium-d XP_sp2) And as you can see the link below SC4 will always be more than a game and exactly for that reason that still alive so long, then who is included in this category always find a way to run it Sim City 4: It's Not A Game, It's A Hobby Here linlk to other related information that may be useful as native resolutions etc ... http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/SimCity_4#Availability Note: The OpenGL option takes the game to rendering by software and the bugs will depend on the compatibility with installed library . -
Another glitch in region view
NCGAIO replied to Deluxe Addict's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
To be clear the application has no longer any direct access to the framebuffer as you mention because everything is managed by the OS Currently there is even problems with portable devices using integrated Intel which does not even provide the shared video memory in the minimum required by the game leaving all the responsibility for a dynamic management of memory made by recognition DX call that in the case of SC4 are obsolete. The Nvidia processes do exactly the same to force the use of GPUs in old games but as said before this support in the drivers is also leaving of to be observed by manufacturers. As a recommendation to have fewer problems: disable the video introduction; turn off the sound; turn window mode in the game and do not use different resolutions of those native to the game. The link below provides options on the command line to do it. Windowed Mode, No Intro and all the other such choices -

NCGAIO replied to Deluxe Addict's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Let's put it this way. From Windows Vista SC4 as other older games are run on emulated environment for the sound; emulation for the DD7, emulation to allocation of memory, emulation on parameters of drivers and now emulation for the 32-bit OS. ie is an application really out-of-date. Nvidia really has endeavored in compatibility with old games but I do not think it will not last much longer and she will certainly abandon compatibility with all that is before DX9ex. Also because MIcrosoft and Intel never even care about this and has implemented techniques that begin to make impossible have another solution than software rendering in case of old games as SC4. This seems to be the final objective to put an end to all dependency problems and failures of video hardware vendors. Good for the new ... bad for the oldest. -

Just to clarify, since it was being recited several times ... A careful reading to the indicated makes it clear that this stance was not taken by a moderator and the reasons for that has not been made available referred to the fact that there were some problems and was a beta version.
-
But it can also be seen in the same thread that there's a reason he has not been made available. page-22#entry1225509 Not to mention the old question within the rules to make available works that can no longer be achieved for download, without the prior authorization, only citing its creator.!

Guide: Running SimCity 4 on Windows 8
NCGAIO replied to Indiana Joe's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Well ... That's what I call useful comments. Friend ... for Intel environment will continue all the same. Virtual allocation failures of the video memory for SC4 legacy due to DVMT and also failures associated with WDDM 1.3 parameters that prevent DD7 legacy of D3D correct emulation through the support DX9ex present in the recent OS. The correct call of the parameters for device graphic used by SC4 only guaranteed in this latest drivers ( with Intel) by Nvidia software compatibility thanks to "wrapper" between DX calls and OS operations We are working on configurator that allows SC4 correctly receive the parameters but so far has not avoided the mistake of not receive more allocation memory within the DVMT. Currently the MINTEL group walks toward the software rendering and the total elimination of dependence to discrete GPUs and its attendant problems of drivers and compatibility. (For me a fallacy if it's directed to run games that really has huge buffer requirements today but will force developers from DX11 / 12 and 64-bit.)) ..... But this also means the inutility of legacy games without updatings that depend of the features optimizations coded to effectively run that have left or will cease to exist. The good news is that this future ... is still a distant bit. For now the solution is AMD.cpu (no DVMT) Nvidia;AMD;Intel; control panel and software rendering or OpenGL (that's the same but allows HD) More information possibly soon. -
thanks

You should avoids making the same post in more than one section in the forums.. that does not make its faster response OK!

How to stop traffic from disappearing?
NCGAIO replied to Bullsfan23's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
It is possible but I guarantee that if you really want to play SC4 it will be very undesirable. You also should not make the same post in more than one section of the forum. it does not help. -
You should avoid double posting if forgot something in the previous post use the edit option OK! link to the works of KEY - http://tokyo-urbanlab.jpn.org/Sim-Home.htm link to the works of NOB - http://hide-inoki.com/~nob/index.html

It would be more useful if you could provide the OGL library that is being used with his graphic system. this information can be found thus or using this application that can also be useful later OpenGL Extensions Viewer

Dear professorial fellow As I said before I am always available anywhere else to explain in detail what is inaccurate in his remarks. With respect to legacy software problems with updates to Windows-7/8 / 8.1 they are all widely known and you can learn more by searching the network. Here these issues for me is closed. Let us return the requested help

But this does not really fit with my personal experience,.... This has nothing to do with personal experience but with technical knowledge and I am available to discuss the matter in any other place that you would like since this is a long subject and massively tedious to develop here. This may be the difference between our opinions because while you think it's some thing related, I can assure that I know exactly about what I am writing. Instead of repeating what I have already said before on several occasions that such say what are the changes in specifications for WDDM drivers affecting legacy software or exactly what these DX changes mentioned? Friend ... I can assure you that you is not quoting someone with just the experience of those who assembles machines and solves problems with software that does not run on the basis of the network tips. But if want to collaborate participating in the project that intends to provide general solutions to the problems that the game will face in the new OS versions and make your installation easier you would be very welcome. An optimal choice. Many users of portables would not have gone through the situation to see their equipment simply can no longer charge the system if they had done the same thing.

The equipment to be able to run comes along?

Game freezing / screen all greenish or blueish
NCGAIO replied to Flixotide's topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
When you say you have no problems with other games is also including other games with DX9 requirements? -
This is not just a problem with updating drivers, but also with the updates of Windows (Windows 7 included) that, depending on the Windows Update configuration some computers have received and installed and others not . Explanations soon.

Graphics "Blades" and missing intersections

this is not the point of the question and you know it therefore unnecessary to repeat. @Note: When citing moderation is preferable to do so by the usual method to trigger the notification Ok! -
Guide: Running SimCity 4 on Windows 8
NCGAIO replied to Indiana Joe's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
then ????????? Ie: here the solution depends on the equipment but in this regard it seems that will not be of much help. Then when found some links that talk about the subject and hopes that the User can understand the procedure explained there and then return here to tell if it worked Just pay some attention to the fact that it refes only a some portable therefore not a hint to all OK! Not to mention the fact that it would be good to warn of the consequences of using some portable with continuously active graphics card .. Not everyone buys a portable just to play, of course! Yep, it's in there. There where? OGL solution depends on the library version installed with the system with old nvidia exception that settled with the driver -
Graphics "Blades" and missing intersections
NCGAIO replied to princeonacastle's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
A little more careful reading of the problem reported is sometimes necessary not to be filling the forum with the same often repeated answers that are not magic solution to the problems. You are referring to what game installation? SimCity 4 Vanilla plus adjustment Rush Hour or the full version SimCity 4 Deluxe? C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition\Apps\<name-machine>-config-log.txt 100% safe investigate the directory where the executable of this game default above see which version of the file simcity 4.exe and if different from 1.1.638.0 then update EP1 was not installed -
What specs should I consider in computer in order to play sim city 4 smoothly?
NCGAIO replied to nas786's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Let's say I have a little more Ok! If you want to keep posting this information then I ask you to pass stating that this solution depends on the equipment used.Ok! PM
