So does anyone have a working link, as I have found both the BSC and Dusktrooper's version of the mod crash my game every so often.

I've tried all of the above, but nothing stops it from crashing. I run Win7 64bit Home Premium, and although running it with the CPU affinity helps it run a little smoother, it still crashes. Maybe in some instances it's the plugins we have installed. I've had problems with running SC4 even on WinXP when I first played the game. It would crash for no reason. Looking at the exception reports that the game used to give out made no sense (to me, at least), and so when I looked it up back in the day, it was found out to be the plugins. Maybe that could be the reason it crashes as well?

Oh, I totally agree. I love playing the game. With all the sites around for SC4, and the fact that I am still playing it nearly 8 years on is a testament to the game itself. At the same time that it came out, I used to play Command & Conquer Generals. Since then, I have stopped playing Generals [though I still own my copies], and there have been what, 3 releases since? Anyway, I just wondered what people thought of my question. I hope SC4 lives on for a lot longer yet, as I am not bored of it, and also I am not finished creating my regions. I mean, the region I am currently working on will hopefully be good enough for me to make a CJ about, but it's taking it's time as I have not been able to play the game as much as I would like to!

Wow. I never thought I would hit a nerve with so many people. It's just because I still play it, but I don't see as many updates or releases by people that I was wondering. And no, to those people who asked, I am not a newbie on the site; I just don't post on here very often.

I just wondered... Now that CXL 2011 is out, and SimCity 4 is pretty much 8 years old, does this mean that it is dead? I mean, how many people actually are still playing it these days? I do, but my system is old. I don't know whether it works on Windows 7 or not, so until I upgrade my computer, I don't know compatibility issues. Just how many people play SC4?

It's ok, I went through the steps for SC4 Terra Former again, and found the problem. I was missing one of the dll files that should have been included with my copy of DirectX. Had to re-download it in order to install it properly. Thanks for your help guys!

I am having problems loading maps with my copy of SC4 Rush Hour. I have searched everywhere on both Simtropolis.com, and SC4 Devotion for an answer and couldn't find any, so I need someone to try and help me get it working. I have tried loading the regions I want the old fashioned way (load the region in SC4, hit Ctrl, Alt, Shift + R, load image), but that doesn't want to do it for me. It just sits there and does nothing. I have also tried using SC4 Terra Former (which doesn't want to work at all on my PC), and SC4 Mapper (again, which doesn't want to work at all on my PC). I know SC4 Mapper is the light version of SC4 Terra Former, so I would they are related issues. Can anyone help me? I am running Windows XP, and have plenty of spare RAM to run the game comfortably. I have no plugins installed when I try and load the regions. Also, could someone tell me what SC4 Terra Former actually uses (Flash, .Net, etc) so I can try an eliminate them as problems.
