Hi all, I am in need of assistance with my buttons being placed very far to the right.... I have switched everything I have from my resolution to mix matching to find out what the issue is... nothing works..... my buttons are cutting off.... I typically use the 1360 X 768.... I've tried everything else (adjusting etc.....)but to no luck my buttons are still off. any help or ideas. I do have the RCI MOD, ORION, AKAR, etc... and all those other goodies. What buttons past disasters am I missing. While looking at videos and other players their buttons are more to the left whereas my bulldoze button is right in front of my other buttons.

Hi all, This has probably been answered.... I at one time used a tool that helped organize my menus in game of SC4. I'm now finding that with all this custom content.... it's getting messy again. How do I reorganize my buidlings or menu items in the game? The tool I used before had me edit the number of the property..... I was thinking this was from lot editor.... can anyone help me out.... I do remember it was a long tedious prject the last time I did it...... but it was sooooo nice.

The State of Simcity - EA/Maxis speaks
aaronlbarta replied to baertooth's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
Griffon, Well said..... SimCity 3000 was a great game... I forgot about some of those features that were unique to that game. I loved that stuff. I couldn't wait till the year 1950... I think that's when highways were invented. haha. I just feel SimCity 5 is too restrictive with what I would like it to be.... I was fine with it first, but the extra small maps don't make it do what I would like it to do, too restrictive... since the map size can't grow.... I don't see a reason to keep building a new city from scratch starting all over. I take time with my cities as you can see (I only have one region in my SC4 game.) I don't like playing with people.....I want my own region, I can have that.... but still..... the game size is so small, I understand they can't have everything in the original SC5 and were planning on expansions, but since the map size is so small you would have to start a city all over again to add new content.... it just seems restrictive SC5 Pros Better Graphics Building Add-ons Building on Diagonal Roads Pollution Realistic Got rid of water pipes and subways. SC5 Cons Map Size small. Unrealistic highways as entrance to city, and city grows too fast, population numbers are not as realistic as SC4. Sim Agents buggy (Glassbox isn't what they claim it is, they should have not have built it up before the release... they were wrong, SC4's sim agents was way more accurate in my opinion) RCI zoning is not on tiles Grass plopping is gone Terraforming is gone Great Works doesn't receive shipments properly Game overall too restrictive, it's a good toy for a kid.... not a fan who grew up and learned their mistakes on the other SimCity's along the way. The online play with people component doesn't work either...... people stop playing and I'm stuck in a region (if I can find one that's not full to start with or a bunch of abandoned crappy cities) where I can't do a great works.... that sucks..... -
The State of Simcity - EA/Maxis speaks
aaronlbarta replied to baertooth's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
EYE CANDY TOPIC I'm a fan.. I love SimCity... I think I'm a hardcore fan.... but to most of you all I would be seen as a casual SimCity fan. I don't develop mods, I read a lot of forums on here, and don't post a lot, I just like to play the game and download new content..... with this being said..... I think what zapf Dingbats was trying to get across is that in the SimCity Journals on the site there is a lot of criticism and it does appear to be on how the 'eye candy' of the city looks. I am amazed at some of the layouts.... but then I watch tutorials of NAM and RHW, let me tell you...... my opinion is too much work.... hell I'm trying to figure out FLUP's and it appears to be buggy. I think that's where he is coming from... along with.... the focus does get lost with too many cheats, but SimCity is a sandbox game so build as you want and do what you want. (that's my devils advocate to you Zapf) I have been playing SimCity 4 for ten years..... I have only one region.... and play it from time to time and it is still not filled up..... I love this game... I do use the basic functions of NAM.... but think it's hilarious someone one makes a youtube video on how to build a city from scratch.... 30 minutes of time it takes to just get the RHW interchange system right..... I'm like OMG.... seriously....... I want to learn but hell. no way-- not thirty minutes. Moving back to the original topic. I think Maxis should be ashamed for what they did. They messed up big time. I feel cheated. Before the initial release they kept saying we will look at it down the road, we will look at it down the road (regarding map sizes) and I feel it is a big blow in the face. SimCity was released in 1989 or 1987 (I was 6 at the time when I played it so I think 1989), I grew up with the game and have followed every series; after SimCity Societies I thought things couldn't get worse...... it did. SimCity 4 was the best incarnation of the game..... detailed through and through..... options were endless (well minor things irritated me hate drawing water pipes, but it was the best incarnation of the series.) Why was SC4 so great??? -- detail and built around Will Wrights basic formula (Single Player Sandbox Game that made the term 'You play God'). I didn't care for the opening comments on their blog and how they have claimed to continually update the game. The updates...... first of all should have been included with the initial release..... if we went back to 1989 and Will Wright released the first version, unfinished.... the game would have had no momentum or sequels and would have been a failure..... and back then internet wasn't available it had to be a finished product....... Shame on MAXIS for making us, their customers beta testers. Their updates are no more than bug fixes because of a rushed, incomplete project. Bigger Maps..... sorry the game is too limited with the small map size, I want to do this and that like SC4, so I have to start another city.... I love seeing my city grow and upgrade roads and go back and revitalize old areas that I thought... omg why did I build this, what was I thinking... I think we all love and experiencing how to make our city bigger and better..... Price Point As far as the 60 dollar game goes, be thankful you didn't pay 60 bucks back in 1989 for this version of the game because let me tell you.... game prices have remained the same, and are actually less expensive than they were 20 years ago ($60 in 1989 on a game vs. $60 in 2013).... People need to quit complaining about that. I'll be waiting for SimCity 6........ if Maxis can get out of the grave they put the series in. Don't bother with an offline mode... probably wont happen, I only see one more additional expansion pack release after this Cities of Tomorrows stuff..... and offline wont matter size is too small.... I'm not waiting for modders to fix this game.. I'll play SC4 for another 10..... I still have room left in my original region.. Thanks everyone for listening to my ranting since I rarely post. -
Hi all, Can anyone help me find the newest versions of Wal-Mart and Target stores. There are ones in the STExchange from 2004 and the era of walmart.... but this one is the current look of how walmart is building their stores today. It was on a journal.... and I can't seem to find my post there Also, are there anyways of having an easy way to remember what zone size for the custom lots I've downloaded.... it's a pain to remember the size of a huge shopping strip and hope it pops up.... (a list or application of custom content and the zoning sizes)? Thanks.

New tools for roads under development - tunnels & overpasses coming.
aaronlbarta commented on Benedict's article in News
Here's something.... remember the days where nothing was connected to the internet and companies had to make final versions of the game before it was released. Seven patches is ridiculous......... this should have never been released when it was an unfinished product. Very unprofessional of maxis and ea. I think this game has won the Guinness book of world records for updates..... try releasing a finished product ea..... it makes me really unhappy how the gaming industry thinks this is acceptable. -
Videos show path finding inherently "broken"
aaronlbarta replied to Dirktator's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion
Smoke and Mirrors?? Anyone else feel this about the glassbox engine, When i saw the early videos of how the simulation was going to be ACTUAL reprentation of whats going on and not a simulation, I thought to myself...... wait..... wasn't SimCity 4 pretty close to representing a true life city. I felt the simulation in there is alot more accurate.... in SC4. It's annoying how the game takes forever to realize i bulldozed my old power plant and built my new one. I try the SC4 technique of pausing the game to help not disrupt my city.... seems like old habits die very hard. This game is good, but Maxis needs alot of tweaking. I feel like its pseudo-simcity. -
