- This is the TSCT (that comes with NAM) only this is a standalone version. If you chose not to install it during NAM install, you can install it from this link. btw: What is the reason for depending on the JRE for the TSCT? Why is there no independent version?

SimCity 4 Launcher - Updated (10/09/15) 1.5.4b - R12
SimMavGER replied to Logic_Bomb's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I think he is talking about the EXE? It is not in the SimCity4 directory but in one of its subfolders - cant look right now which exactly. -

Lets say I do not care for 1GB more or less, is the only reason I should not DatPack the NAM that I could not easily change its installed components? Could I not just copy my plugin folder to a backup drive, DatPack what is to DatPack including the NAM and change the NAM-DatPack file with the NAM-folder if I want to change out anything? Or are there other possible Woop-de-doodles that might happen if I pack the NAM? Any reasons for not simply DatPacking the whole plugin folder into one neat DAT? -
Offices need a nicer environment than services - look for clean air, built plazas etc. Just because your sims want something doesnt mean they will build it just anywhere.

UDI Missions v.s. Difficulty
SimMavGER replied to Cougar2004's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Now THAT would explain quite something ... -
Do you only have a picture of this city or do you have the real map? You can import a tile to your region and in god mode tell the game to obliterate every artificial content to wipe the map clean without loosing the terraforming. The waterfall is a ploppable lot though and would be lost anyway.

Res. and Ind. zone connected by road? Built a one-way road by accident? Not to far away from each other? All connected with power lines?

Sims in my city stopped commuting, completely.
SimMavGER replied to iamhttp's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Can you explain the down-spike in your R$-population approx. four years earlier? Was that you dezoning the residential areas? It corresponds with your decreasing traffic count. Whats the EQ in your city? I see you have farms, maybe the sims dont want to work there anymore because they think they are all smart n stuff? -
As do the cute ditches I presume. So, I would need a small town away from my city with no school and next to something like a federal prison, landfill etc. so only dumb-R$ will live there - but with SPAM R$$ and R$$$ will work on the farms too? Which leads to another question: are there even dumb sims? Does the game calculate with such precision? Or are there only average numbers?

Can someone provide me with greyscales of the following cities/towns/areas, please? I am able to cut them to size as needed, but I am useless at creating them myself - let alone finding suitable source material and greyscaling it ... ---------- Alsfeld Latitude 50°45'3"N (50.750794°) Longitude 9°16'18"E (9.271660°) area: 50.582365 , 50.809840 S-N 9.071159 , 9.454308 W-E ---------- Bonn Latitude 50°43'14"N (50.7205°) Longitude 7°7'4"E (7.1177°) area: 50.615925 , 50.780543 S-N 6.899700 , 7.256412 W-E ---------- Siegen Latitude 50°52'12"N (50.8667°) Longitude 8°1'48"E (8.03333°) area: 50.890473 , 50.980912 S-N 7.917709 , 8.177261 W-E ---------- -
Create/select a suitable polluted area, clear the are especially all trees next to the polluter(s), run simulation for a few months. Build T21 trees (i.e. the appropriate network) into the clouds, switch to air pollution view, cheetah for full effect, dont blink and report back!

Things I'd like to see in SC4
SimMavGER replied to Wiimeiser's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
A "train-able" airport with the freight-swallowing-ability of the seaport - for inland industrial cities that wont be connected by rail - and just because I want one! -
Slowing down the speed of rail automata...
SimMavGER replied to Priyon's topic in SC4 Modding - Open Discussion
Does this only slow down the animation of AI trains or lower the maximum speed of trains in UDI too? -
If the seaport goes entirely on land now and still functions as a freight dump, then it will be very useful on maps you cannot/ do not want to connect you industry to the neighbouring tiles - although it will still pollute I think? And it should be a nice trick to circumvent the crime bug for large lots, will try this one out!
-
To revive this thread one more time: If the air is really "red", nothing seems to beat the good old forrest - set a cemetery where trees are standing and watch the clouds roll in! So the air cleaning ability of this large lot seems to be rather sub par to natural vegetation. I was rather disappointed yesterday - but the allmighty mayor-god sent me some new trees to plant between the graves.
