  3. Skylines Lagging Like Crazy

    Sim Shady 32 replied to EricG.'s topic in Cities: Skylines Technical Help Q&A

    460 watts is plenty. Just buy a good brand. My favorite is Seasonic as they make power supplies only. Others usually use their power supplies and slap their brand (OCZ, Corsair, etc.). I like gold rated ones, they have the price per efficiency. I have a 350 watt on my i5-4440 and GTX 650 ti with 8gb and it doesn't even get to 200watts even when stress testing. Your system should be fine. Lag is usually caused by high traffic volumes. The lag comes from more the active agents than population totals. Your 2gb video can handle up to 1080p monitor fine. If you play on higher resolutions you may have extra lag from running out of memory. Mods and assets will increase lag as well. some very quickly. Traffic++ is horrible and cuts my fps in half in some cases. remember, this game is CPU intensive. iMacs usually have laptop CPU which are under powered as they are designed to be portable and run on batteries. also, This game is agent based which means you need to get your agents (cims) from point A to point B in a timely manner. So traffic is going to be the main goal of this game. So busy traffic means low frames rates (lag). Macs do have their own issues and may be OS X version related. Ok thanks for the advice! it blew so quick I assumed it was the size, But it's to late, I've purchased a Corsair 650 modular gold. I guess it'll be overKill.

    Hello thought I'd ring in on this... I've also noticed SERIOUS lag, In fact my first old computer just gave up after a couple of weeks of playing. I built a new computer And inside of the first week my NEW CM 460 PSU blew up! So my thoughts are, this game is way too resource heavy for most computers, However I see you specs. are way higher than mine I.E> Intel 3258 3.2 GHz, 8GB Ram, EVGA 750TI FTW... Before the PSU went out I had a city 32000 pop. and was starting to see a little lag... but things were going ok... then Death :-(.. So good luck.. I myself am upgrading to a 650 PSU, Going to attempt MORE power & Overclocking wish me luck...Hope this helps
  6. Please forgive my ignorance, what exactly does this do? I don't quite understand. Can I play without any internet connection?... Does this replace Orion?

  15. uDoN Mod - Traffic not flowing right

    Sim Shady 32 replied to jeffistotallyawesome's topic in SimCity (2013) Modding - Open Discussion

    no problem, just hold control while over roads with bulldozer and it will highlight different segments to make it easy to find that little road bit or bits

  16. uDoN Mod - Traffic not flowing right

    Sim Shady 32 replied to jeffistotallyawesome's topic in SimCity (2013) Modding - Open Discussion

    More than likely you have a small section of UDon going the wrong way to find sections I find it easy to just Highlight roads with bulldozier and that will let you see all road segments... good luck..

  17. I dont get it?

    Sim Shady 32 commented on Nico Robin's file in SC13 Roads & Traffic

    Great Job HyugaHinata! I Just wanted to thank you for ALL the great work on the Regional roads and whatnots!!! It was so needed. I Cant wait to see what you come up with next, thanks again....

    Sim Shady 32 commented on CapTon's file in SC13 Game Mods

     I can't be quiet anymore...I see a pattern of releasing broken mods then just stop communicating with the people that want to use your broken mods..So I guess if I had a problem like now with this, I guess it's just too bad for me?  Not good., very unsure about this so ,I'm taking out all of your mods!.I like to know that if I have a prob. then the original modder will be there to help. That just leaves the responsibility to the other modders and members. Not one response from you to the one's having trouble on this page for instance...People need to know that the modders stand behind there work...Sorry to be so negative, but this is very frustrating Capton...If your not going to respond you should take it down until you fix it!! so users wont continue to waste valuable time with it...Sorry Cap

  20. Project Akar : UI Enhancement

    Sim Shady 32 commented on Yayie's file in SC13 User Interface

    Thanks Yayie for the fast response. That was my thought's as well. I'll wait for the no traffic lights & Bi-Level's to be updated Every thing is working well with the high res. I can't see the disasters tab, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to take. 'Don't use it anyway' Thank you for your advise, it's most helpful. When all these bugs get worked out and all these different road tools work together properly It will be Epic! However It's pretty epic now as it stands!!!
  21. I've been waiting ,I would also like to see all the freight, oil, ore etc.truck's changed as well. I'm sure there coming though. Maybe put in a request with bowserking123 or others. He does do request's, Good luck!
  22. Very exiting guy's,This will be a great addition to SC This is the part my wife and I really would like to see in the game... I would like to offer to test this/ these things to help out if I can. Do I need to know code or programing to be a tester? I don't, but I'm really starting to understand about shifting & testing the versions 'I think I do anyway... my plan from now on is to save a point in time 'mods and game' in a file so I can back up to previous versions of my important city's. so I'm ready to start testing if you guys need me.
