Can't make MIS-avenue elevated intersection
Compdude787 replied to Razip's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Usually, you want two lanes if you have an interchange in an urban environment or anywhere you'd want traffic signals. One lane is for traffic turning left, the other for traffic turning right. -
Can't make MIS-avenue elevated intersection
Compdude787 replied to Razip's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I don't think that that type of intersection has signals. For ground-level interchanges, I usually convert the MIS to OWR as it approaches the avenue. -
NAM confusion: curved roads and roundabouts
Compdude787 replied to SimplyJenny's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
The cul de sacs should appear automatically, but since they don't seem to be doing so, you must not have them installed. Simply re-run the NAM installer (you don't need to uninstall the NAM before doing this), select "Custom install" and go through all the options and make sure the checkbox for cul de sacs is checked. For the 2x2 roundabout, drag with the road tool in a 2x2 square and it will convert into a roundabout. For a slightly bigger 3x3 roundabout, use the one way road tool to make a 3x3 square. Make sure that you drag in the direction that traffic flows (counterclockwise if you have a RHD game setup), or the roundabout will not function properly. Finally, the avenue roundabouts can be found by clicking the "AVE Intersections" button and using the tab key to go through all the various options. -
Show us your Riverside, Lakeside, or Oceanside

Looks pretty nice with all the MMPs! However, I would try and get rid of the cliff that starts immediately at the edge of the river underwater. Most rivers don't have that. -
That's a great improvement!! Nice work!
-
Interesting start to your CJ!

SC4 installation on Win Vista Business help please?
Compdude787 replied to Pete4350's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
If you'd rather not deal with Command Prompt each time you start the game, you can get a digital version of the game off of Steam, Origin, GOG, or Amazon that doesn't require a CD to run. If you keep an eye out, those sites will have the game on sale for as low as $5. -
That bridge looks a lot better!
-
Nice! I like how you were able to get rid of the traffic light there!
-
Interesting! Looking forward to seeing what this will look like.

Thanks, I just downloaded this one and hopefully it's all good now!

SC4 Devotion Outage for Server Move (Back Now - 7 June 2016)
Compdude787 replied to Tarkus's topic in Community Goings-on
Hopefully the site will be back up sooner rather than later. -
If those two fields were the same sport, I'd say that there must be a bitter rivalry between the two teams that play in them.

I think you use the "import city" function.

Small Cities with skyscrapers
Compdude787 replied to The Pennsylvania Turnpike's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
What city is that? It seems like it's a lot bigger than 20,000 people. -
Finally Made a Map I'm Happy With :D

Me neither... -
Editing or making a Readme
Compdude787 replied to patfirefghtr's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Or you could type it up in MS Word and then save it as a PDF. That's probably what I'd do personally, but it's up to you. -
Yeah, definitely seems like two of your mods are conflicting with one another. Definitely try what was suggested in the above post about doing a binary search for plugins conflicts. It is also recommended to take it easy with your downloading sprees and always test newly-installed mods. EDIT: Just realized this was posted in the Mac section of the forum. The Aspyr port for SC4 has its quirks and when it was originally re-released in mid-2014, it had a limit on how many files you could have in your plugins folder. I'm not sure if this is still an issue, as I haven't really heard about it lately. It would be nice if another person who actually plays this game on a Mac could shed some light on whether this truly got fixed.

[Solved] Extra Cheats DLL loading from SSD
Compdude787 replied to A Nonny Moose's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Oh yeah, you have to have the Extra Cheats DLL in your Program Files\...\Plugins folder rather than the Documents\...\Plugins folder. -
Slow HSR/Monorail in U Drive It
Compdude787 replied to sabstion's topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Yeah, that other video that you had there appears to have been sped up. @Haljackey would know best; he made said video. I do like using UDI just to tour my city. It's a fun way to do it. -
Wow, gorgeous!!
-
Wow, that is impressively realistic!!

Aaand...this is why I don't like building on slopes. Retaining walls around lots like that have always annoyed me.
