  1. Show us your Region!

    Here's a new map I made I'm gonna start building on:
  2. Show us your Region!

    Thanks for the info on that tool, that will save me much time. Also your map looks great too! a note in imgur, if you use jpeg instead of png it will let you post the full size, that's what i had to do cuz the png is too big a file
  3. Show us your Region!

    ^damn now thats what i'm talkin about.... I'm starting one now thats 32x32 large maps for a total of 1024 large cities. I don't have the whole thing stitched together yet in photoshop, but I have part of it I'll show you here so you can see the scale of this thing: If you look in the top left, those square gridlike formations, each one of those is a large city Satellite View, and Transit View:

  5. Better Region View?

    Is there any way to zoom in for more detail on the region view? I know the capability does not exist, but an addon or pluggin? It just seems like the camera viewing the region is too far away, I know it's probably hard coded into the game, but has anybody got anywhere with this? Thanks for any ideas

    Is there a different section or site to post city journals? something more populated? i havent updated this in 2 months and its still on the front page, seems like this forums dead im close to 200k now in 2 large city tiles i have updates but its kinda time consuming to post them and if theres no viewers it doesn't seem worth the effort

    I played a lot since the last update. Had some problems with some plugins and buildings not showing up so I had to clean up that mess. I had to reinstall NAM and it's stirred up come confusion in the city with the demand etc.... Basically I'm at 37,000 sims and all the demand is negative. Not a big deal I will find a way to work with it. This is what I like. I enjoy playing this game most when I'm trying to fix my cities and figure out what the hell is wrong with it, then finding a way to fix it with the money I've got. Like I know some people use the $$$ cheats and use SC4 as a sandbox... I like fighting against the simulation if that makes sense. My cashflow is positive though. I'm making more than I spend, so money isn't an issue. The plan is to start another tile of the region and build that up, then connect the two.... That's how I plan to beat the negative demand problem. Some Pix:

    Okay i've got a lot of free time now so things are really gonna get movin~! Heres 2 pix of the downtown area. Ive got a avenue tunnel going under ground to maximize space on top, the rotary for all the traffic situations. Now I've expanded the avenues because I'm adding in higher density residental and commercial zones. When the people start moving in and the buildings start rising ill add an update So here's the pix:

    Hey yall I'm startin this new city. I'll add more dialogue as I go. Here's the beginning, just getting started with some zones: Starting to develop: Zoomed out pic: Some medium density residential growing in... apartment buildings on the avenue, higher density, more traffic, more inner city downtown feeling: More neighborhoods:
  14. Can't find it?... Ask here!

    I look on the STEX, and it's filled with beautiful, 1000000 dollar mansions. REAL CITIES have BLIGHT in the inner city. I have found a few boarded up buildings, but wish there was more in this direction. * * * I'd like GROWABLE boarded up buildings, and GROWABLE burnt-out buildings. It would be even better if SimCity would board up abandoned buildings, instead of just putting a "no job" icon over them. but that apparently isn't possible. Boarded up and Burnt out buildings. I run a Region of poverty, and the buildings look way too nice. I want some run-down, burnt-out boarded-up abandoned buildings to line the streets of the worst areas of my city.
