well i tend to build by commercial in the middle of a city and build my res around with lower density res and ind in surrounding city tiles

well demand is actually shared between a city and its neighboring connections. it mite be that the new commercial is closer for simsto get 2 meaning they are not travelling to your other city hence the delapitation

well i have never had that before. try building some resedential on a city tile right next to your current one. it might help stimulate a bit of growth

have you tried puttin the file into the program files plug in folder rather than the my documents plug in folder

i tend to keep my dirty and manufacturing industry in a seperate tile and when you get the demand for high tech, i build it in the residential city which helps reduce commute times. i also build commercial along my main roads which also helps. when starting out tho i raise R$$$ to 20% to keep them out and lower it later when there is enough jobs to support the high wealth population

thats the 1, it breaks down your income and expenses. there is an option in the red section saying ordinances and if you click on it you can select different ordinances that help your city in some way but for a cost

how about some north eastern england landmarks like the sage on the gateshead quayside, or the angel of the north, penshaw monument in sunderland

some high wealth residents do use public transport but most tend to drive to work so u will need to have a good road network

well the world in 2050 i think will be much similar as it is today. obviously a few minor changes as oil runs out and climate in britain will either be tropical or entering into an ice age (probly gunna b the first 1). africa will still have large areas of poverty despite the aids of sir bob geldof and britain will probably not be part of the EU

i would like to request the sage to be made as a bat. its a music culture centre built on the gateshead quayside and is quite unique. altho i do believe it might take quite an experienced user of gmax to create it. width=429 align=baseline> http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/graphics/2004/12/17/sage_gateshead_nocredit.jpg align=baseline> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/The_Sage_Gateshead.jpg align=baseline> align=baseline> now i am learning to bat but this is way beyond me, but i am currently working on a landmark called penshaw monument. http://195.218.114.170/sitebuilder/uploadedfiles/Penshaw%20Monument(3).jpg align=baseline> if any1 has soom useful textures for this sort of thing i would be grateful if you could pm me phil

i would love to see better zoning, eg. be able to decide what wealth a block of houses is going to be, whether you want dirty industry on one side of a city and high tech on the other side. as other people have said i wouldl ike to see the power system re done as it is to unrealistic. actually have cars that don't dissappear, and vehicles that clog up the sides of roads when parking etc etc and as other people have mentioned i would like the sc3k zoning of airports and seaports re introduced and also using this for health/safety/eductation. weather effects would be great aswell as random natural disasters like flooding and random tornadoes, hurricanes, random volcanoes that could errupt at any time etc etc region play should also be improved so regions can connect with each other and each region should be based around its resources like coal, iron, wood etc etc i would love maxis to bring out a sc5 or sim nation whatever it may be called with alot of these ideas mention in this thread

i would love to see some buildings and landmarks from north east england, ive requested before but nobody seems to have done anything about it. here is a list of what id love to see, i can get pictures if anybody needs them. Angel of the North (gateshead) The Sage (music culture building in gateshead) Baltic (centre for contemporary art) Monument (statue in centre of newcastle) St James Park (home of newcastle United) Penshaw Monument (an ancient landmark near sunderland) Metro Radio Arena (used for concerts, ice hockey and basketball) Sunderland Winter Gardens Lumley Castle (a nice scenic castle in chester-le-street nr durham) Durham Cathedral Metro Centre (biggest shopping centre in europe) metro train system skin for glr/el-raili know that looks alot but it would be good if someone could make these or at least some of these for me

well unfortunatly i work with people from that place by the wear or who support that team but i was born in gateshead, close enough to being a geordie. it would be great to see landmarks from all over the uk instead of just US. landmarks such as edingbrough castle, london eye, part of hadrians wall, durham cathedral etc etc if any1 is going to make these please let me know if they need pictures

penshaw monument would be a great addition, the toon ones would be best coming first tho lol, is any1 actually going to make these, i would be most grateful if someone could.

wicked, good to hear from somebody closer to home. monument would be mint, ive been planning on learning to BAT myself but unable to download gmax so there goes that idea.
