Hello, everyone,
I first played SimCity 3000, on Linux, the LokiGames issue, ages ago. Since I never seemed to find the way to create a town that did not go bankrupt, I stopped playing soon after, but the attraction never left.
Some years ago I bought SimCity 4 and Rush Hour on Amazon, but couldn't get it to run more or less stable in Wine, so again I left it alone. Now a month or so ago, I retried, and managed to install both SC4 CDs and Rush Hour successfully, and after reading up on strategy, finally managed to start viable cities. Mainly by largely ignoring the cries from my citizens.
Of course my attention did get drawn towards the various mods that are out there, especially since I could not seem to find a way to alleviate traffic problems. So I applied the 638 patch, SC4 BAT and the SC4UpdateBAT patch, and I installed LRM 4.0 and NAM 3.2. To free up my DVD drive I installed the Rush Hour 1.1.640 NOCD patch. Also SC4Launcher R8, as that managed to run me at 1600x1024.
Both LRM and NAM claim _not_ to have any dependencies, yet this is the result (see below) in the residencies areas there are only houses with what appear to be dependency problems? Yet I can not for the life of me find out what Mod I'm missing or which one I should uninstall or update.
Yes, I am a total $%&^! when it comes to SimCity, and somehow I have no clues left anymore, either. And Wine/SimCity say nothing:
So: "Hi", and "Help?!?",
Kind regards,
Stefan.
