  1. Wilmington Bay

    Very nice mix. I like the big bays and that little hill area in the middle. Should be a good challenge to build around and on that area.
  2. Solar Power Plants

    But you see the benefit is that there is no pollution with the solar plant. Now you can have local power to a city and not spend the $$ on a deal and not generate the pollution. autoVino you have the right idea...here is a link for more information. edited for the link...
  3. I have never used money cheats a few mods here ant there but nothing specific to money. It is a balancing act and you just have to watch how you spend you money on education, health, fire, police, utilities, and the rewards (they suck money quickly in most cases). Your sims do not need as much as you think to be happy. It is very easy to over do it in the name of looking good or doing what you think they need. Your sims will tell you when they need something, and even then they may not need it. Tangent there...I have profitable citys without money cheats and my regin is quickly approaching 800,000 with only a small poriton of the map used. Each city is makign money some a little, some alot.
  4. city layouts

    I'm still playing with the style aspect. I use to do just grids 9x9, 6x8 for downtowns and industrial areas. For residential it really depended on how I was feeling. Most of the time i would end up wit ha mix of 2x blocks in various lengths. After seeing so many good looking cities with the winding roads I have tried to incorporate them into my region. I have tried just about everything it seems now. My regions really look disjointed as my whim takes me into new cities with a different newly found style. Anyway I usually always end up with Maxis std grids because I get impatient and want the city to grow. It seems everyday I find something new to try. Right now I am trying to bring my little pockets toghether somehow. Either that or start over yet again... t_co: I would like to see some of your work as it sounds interesting how you have things laid out. masochist: I think you have a nice looking city going there. Any chance of seeing some closeups?

    ^ Correct! < Thinks See's is the best chololate \/ Has watched figure skating and is afraid to admit they liked it.
  6. How well do you know California?

    That subway store is in every coastal town up and down the california (almost as bad as Starbucks). It would be safe to say that all the towns also have the same style building in the older part of town so it is really hard to say where it would be short of flat out guessing. More information is needed... Anyway my next dart says that that building is in Pacific Grove.

  13. Well I feel reall y stupid now. I unloaded all my plugins and reinstalled the NAM and guess what it works fine. On furhter inspection of my plugins folder I found a left turn mod.dat that I did not know I had. It was in a different folder. Cleanitol did not find this and I am not sure how it got into the folder other then an errant click drag on my part. Thank you all for your help.
  14. I was looking specificly for that as I have seen others with similar issue. I will do it again to make sure but I am certain that I did not install the left hand drive option.
