Hi all, I'm currently looking for a mod I've used in the past that allows the player to change the amount of simoleons that they start the game with. I think this amount changed depending on what level of difficulty was chosen before starting a new city. I've looked all over, but can't remember the name of the plugin/mod. Does anyone recall the name? Many thanks

Update: Here's a screenshot of the latest canal I'm testing out. As you can see, the ferry station at the top has usage but no boats have spawned.

Thanks for the reply, I tried a range of canal set ups with different stations etc, but nothing appeared to make the boats/traffic spawn. Here's a list of mods I'm using: NAM 32 (with CAM AM installed/checked during NAM set up) BSC_Install_Canals_BasePack BSC_Install_Canals_Gondolas BSC_Install_Canals_Paddleboats BSC_Install_Canals_Terraces BSC_Install_Canals_Wharfs BSC_Install_EssentialFiles BSC_Install_texturesVol01 BSC_Parksv2_TextureSet_v102 Install_BSC_CAN-AM_NAM Install_BSC_MEGA_PropPack_CP_Vol01 Install_BSC_MEGA_Props_D66_Vol01 Install_BSC_MEGA_Props_D66_Vol02 Install_BSC_MEGA_Props_MBEAR_Vol01 Install_BSC_MEGA_Props_Misc_Vol02 Install_BSC_Textures_Vol02 Install_BSC_Textures_Vol03 Install_BSCMEGAProps_NewmanInc_Vol02 SG_INSTALL_MEGAProps01 From my understanding quite a few of these are dependencies required by the mods in order for the canal set up to run. Would anyone know if I'm missing anything? Thanks again Hi there greg0418, welcome to SC4D ! First of all the Can-Am actually is a bus based transit system and intended for use on (flat) land. Hence you'll not get any ferry traffic. To make the system work, first lay down roads with the road tool. Then select the Can-Am piece from the miscellaneous traffic menu and plop it on top of the road - this ensures UDI functionality. Use stations so sims can use the canals to travel to work or ship freight and finally plop some ordinary canal pieces alongside to finish up your canals! Hope this helpes! i.e. build the CAN-AM part of the canal FIRST (by placing roads and dropping the override on top of them) and then fill in the surrounding eye-candy pieces. Thanks, I spotted that post while reading through all 17 pages of the thread. This also didn't work. I'm sure I must be doing something wrong.

Update: After spending a good few hours of trying to get working traffic/boats on the canal, I sadly gave up. I just couldn't get any traffic to spawn on the canal. I've checked the mods and tried building it different ways. No luck at all! I've been reading through the thread over at SC4 Devotion but still had no joy.

Thanks all, This is a screenshot of the canal I'm currently using. I've not yet seen a single canal boat travel along it. Am I using the correct stations?

Well I followed the guide here and still saw no moving boats. There were numbers (usage) at the stops but no animated boats along the canal.

Thanks, I just discovered this thread from the forum. I'm going to try it out later on.

Thanks, I did plop them down but didn't notice any of them travelling along. I wasn't sure if it was possible as the canal water is a mod that is just covering a normal tile. Would it act like road or rail?

Thanks for the info Grumbs64! I've started designing a canal using BSC Brick Canals (Simgoober's) and have to say its a very nice mod! All I need to do now is locate a nice boat for the canal! Thanks again! Edit/update: I'm now using this mod and was wondering if its possible to have canal boats/ferries that travel along the canal? Or are they just static?

Hi again, The new city I'm designing is going well and I'm really enjoying it. Today I noticed I was able to place a canal. Is this part of NAM? Anyway, if I do decide to add a canal, are there any mods that will allow me to place a canal boat on it? I've not had a good search around yet. I was just looking for feedback from someone who might have already done this. Also! Is there any mods that will allow me to place a Fence/wall along the canal? Thanks

Thanks for the help everyone!

Cheers, I'll have to look one up.

Drag the rail/Road to a river/water area like I've done and you should be given some choices to build a bridge.
