  1. the belief that origin will supply a download if the product key is entered into origin's 'redeem program' no longer works with SimCity 4 deluxe - it comes up with a ' serial number not recognised' message. speaking to a online operative to discuss the problem, (my original game had a scratched second disc and would not install past 78%, I have had it for some time), the conversation ended when origin's operative was told by 'his supervisor', " that they were unable to assist." I have since bought another copy from amazon and out of curiosity, entered the new serial number into origin and this also was 'not recognised'. it seems that origin, steam and Microsoft. collectively have killed off the cd games market and are only interested in selling downloads. - having seen the offerings in the Microsoft and apple online shops, I feel that the future of the gaming market is somewhat dire.

  2. read with interest, your topic on LH>RHD and vice-versa.

    i'm new to this game of SimCity 4 deluxe I have added two patches (one to make the disc based game work (at all ) on my XP computer, the other, EP1, in preparation to download NAM)., which, I'm sorry to have to say, I had to remove, as it slows the gameplay too much.

    The glitch I'm seeing is that, although the cars drive on the left- correct for the UK, the goods trains travel on the right hand track ! is there a way to right this ? also what's the weird little railcar that flies along the track, between trains

    many thanks,

      Hi,

      Unfortunately I have to say I'm not familiar with the issue you're experiencing regarding the goods trains, the only thing I can suggest is to ask within the Bugs & Technical Issues forum as I'm sure the guys over there will have much more of an idea as I do.

      As for the small railcar found on the tracks, I believe it's a track checker which can be removed if you'd like with this mod.

      Hope that helps, sorry I can't assist with the goods train issue.

      -Sam.
