A few questions from a semi-$%&^!
uvapwns replied to sissonnes's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Even though I use the highways, I haven't seen any noticable benefits (but then again, I haven't made any large regions yet), but they work better for more rural areas anyway. You definitely don't need to have them, It's really just whether or not you want to deal with the costs and harmful effects on certain types of demand. -

I like to use subways inside of large cities due to the fact that they have high capacities, don't clog up your roads at all, and don't take up space in your city. However, they tend to be very expensive to both build and maintain. Chances are, though, that you'll need to build them anyway. You'll probably also want to add a highway or two for intercity or across city travel. However, I think that for what you need, subways are definittely the better choice, as long as you can afford them. -
Skyscraper and High-Rise Buildings Tips

Wow... I wasn't aware of the highway thing. I have 4 going through my city. Darn it. -
Yeah, I thought so.
-
If it isn't the jobs, it could just be what sims consider "long". Without NAM, they only like to walk a couple tiles. That probably isn't the problem though.

Ah, well. It's still pretty small.

Whale Watching Tour mission not offered
uvapwns replied to defacto123's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I had a city of 300,000, with almost all middle and high wealth residents, 4 passenger ferries, (being used over 50% capacity), and at least 25% of the city was water. Still nothing... -
Actually, the memory I added made it 2 GB. I know, I have a bad computer.

If you try adding more RAM to your computer, it gets rid of that problem. I was having it and added a gigabyte of RAM, and it runs much smoother now.

I can't get that mission either. Maybe it's a glitch? -
I've downloaded lots of Dusktrooper's buildings and I obliterated the city. Thanks for the help.

I was halfway right...
-
Yeah, I read the manual; it just said to go ahead at your own risk, basically. I had to search the manual on google. The readme had links, but they wouldn't work.
-
I just installed it and started playing in my city again, and commercial demand was maxed out at all wealth levels. What happened, and can I fix it?
-
All he has is bus, subway, and passenger train service. It could be true in this case. Unless, of course, the city does contain highways.
