  1. Is there a way to prevent automata like cars, trucks and buses appearing and disappearing all too often in SimCity 4?

  2. Generic automata-related question.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    That depends... IRL Many people still drive cars even though there are public transport. The second one. And thank you. =)

  3. My game has a "build, abandon, repeat" mentality

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Moonraker0's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    A good rule of thumb is that the game encourages diversity, so it's wise not to create a city with only high-wealth occupants. Even New York and Tokyo, among the world's wealthiest cities, have homeless people and run-down slums. I don't know how land values or desirability in SC4 work, they probably peak in the centre of the map, like older SCs. Try building the CBD (where obviously most of the skyscrapers will be) in the centre. This means less land value boosting structures (parks etc) and your towers won't deteriorate that easily.

  4. City Journals limited to SC4 and CXL only?

    Whoops, silly me.

  5. SimCity 3000 Revival Proposed

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Gabriel Lima's topic in SimCity 3000

    I did say at the time I was setting up a download's area for the SC3 Unlimited files here http://citybuilders....nlimited-Files/ that I would be happy to include maps, etc -catty The CityBuilders site is a good start. Hoping that more files will be contributed by many of the members here. Anyway, Catty, on an unrelated note, is the TransAmerica Pyramid landmark still available?

  6. City Journals limited to SC4 and CXL only?

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in Simtropolis Related

    Which I take as yes, then? I'm still afraid. SC3K is noted for building repetition.

      So when do I get to be in Senior year? Just kidding... Once you go SimCity, you never get out.

      Thanks for the info though.

  8. Playing Simcity in Command and Conquer

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Terring's topic in City-Building Games

    Ah, the good old da- Anyways. Some of my favourite Red Alert 2 maps are Anytown, Amerika and Isle of War. Both maps have civilian vehicles that can be, ahem, 'commandeered'. As an Allied commander, I'd always order some Spies to infiltrate Soviet or Yuri (depending on if it's Red Alert 2 or Yuri's Revenge) Battle Labs so I can train Psy Commandos. Just to see the cars drive around town.

  9. SimCity 3000 Revival Proposed

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Gabriel Lima's topic in SimCity 3000

    This is where I seriously disagree (and facepalm). SC3000.com's City Centre is closed and does not accept new cities created by players. And there is serious lacking of a central file repository for all SimCity 3000 cities, maps and buildings. So the best thing to do now is to reopen SC3000's content acception, or as Gabe said, to make a collection of content from Simtropolis members, something like 4Ever Cities. In short, I fully support Gabe's idea.

  10. Water source in game

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Eshy's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion

    I'm pretty sure water supplies from rivers, lakes and seas will not run out provided that Maxis include water cycles (rain comes to mind). The same should apply for aquifers too, since landlocked towns may not have rivers and lakes nearby. Water should not be finite as it is a renewable resource.

  11. BA+ Help.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt posted a topic in SimCity 3000

    So I installed SimCity 3000 Unlimited that came with Building Architect Plus (BA+) last month. My computer runs Windows 7 Starter. The game runs fine but BA+ always crashes when I run it, even though I set it to run as Administrator. Anyone can help me with this? Is there a patch that fixes this problem? P/S: I hope you guys respond sooner...

  12. BA+ Help.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 3000

    I'm talking about SimCity 3000 Unlimited's Building Architect Plus here. And my computer's a single core.

  13. BA+ Help.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 3000

    Nope, both SPs 2 and 3 won't work.

  14. BA+ Help.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 3000

    Service Pack 2 or 3? (SP1 is not in the options)

  15. Petronas Twin Towers

    Me gusta!

  16. WTC or Petronas Towers

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to Captain Slow's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning

    Petronas Twin Towers, right down to a T. Reasons: None. Just being in love with exotic architecture!

  17. Help with airports and power plants in SC3K

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 3000

    I'll try to move the airport. But is there any way to prevent the power plants exploding before they expire?

  18. EA reportedly for sale

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to mk11232's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion

    In other news, Obama quits the presidential election, Iran opens up to the world, cure for cancer finally researched and Justin Bieber reveals that she's actually a boy. That's right. My opinion on this news is that it's FAKE. No way a publisher that made business by the millions making games that range from good to bad would suddenly go sell itself. It's like Donald Trump being a homeless guy.

    AwkwrdPrtMskrt replied to AwkwrdPrtMskrt's topic in SimCity 3000

    I left the airport for 10 years. Nothing happened.
