New Neighbors, NAM Roundabouts and Max. Cap. RRW,
Garbanzo posted a City Journal entry in Garbanzo`s 1st Journal
Yesterday I played more than usual and now I have a new pics of evolution and, also, new challenges. Let`s go for the general View: Bronx+Brooklin is a 90K sims city now. Last post I promised (myself lol), to experience: 1. If Plop between RHW and RCI, these shall connect. Yes. 2. If put a road perpendicular in the middle of a RHW or AVE it works like U turn. Yes for regular ave and 4-RHW. Anybody knows the rest? Pictures below: Below the three new neighborhoods:1. High-Tech/Low Pollution Manufacture, 2. Residential with great access to education (workers R$$$) and 3. Golf Country Club Neighborhood. I also made some roundabouts and as the city grew I had to place more metro stations choosing carefully the plop points, nor it would take almost zero effect. Literally one church street and some train station/boulevards that, cause I`m using those to solution high transit rates. Some train station got up to 30K transit rates. And the last picture of the session below is the bus stop of the city that I live Curitiba! Then the challenge... So I made Subway<>RRW connections and those simply injected a lot of sims in the heart of downtown. Plus that, I did only one connection with neighbor city Manhattan, result of that -> thousands of trains comes up the city frontier straight to downtown,babe... lol...(big map redline (trains) the only connection) (In white big mass sims transit). And the solution that I propose... black lines RS6 RHW and red line a high speed train. Bough connects to Manhattan, that should be the solution.... well will see y next post with RHW intersections and connections, will give me a lot of work. See U around, -
Playing, NYC BRNX BKLYN and Learning NAM
Garbanzo posted a City Journal entry in Garbanzo`s 1st Journal
Hello there, So in my second round playing, I did the region of Bronx, o course just the region. I`m not trying to copy the characteristics of the region, once I`m new and looking forward to just playing for fun. So I Gave the Mayor name for the first Mayor BKLYN ever had: George Hall. General view: What I would like to show, is how simple I did the exits of the RHW, and how effective they are. PS. Industry CAP is not high enough to get industries. PS2. I`m testing the U TURN (red arrow) at RHW, it seems it is not working. I`ll wait lil bit for the simulation recognize it? So, a little bit of props: Rural trains stations, are very handful once they have a great capacity. We can see NAM PEG rural streets, great red Bus stop in front of train station. Discovering that RHW does not connects with Industrial, neither bus stops. I bet it does not connects to residential also. We can see Ninja Boulevard Station, comes with NAM, very pretty and handful. BUUUUUUUUT, it seens that connects with commecial... Bizarre, I think It`s because of the parking lot (red arrow), once having NAM it connects to the RHW. Note: Remember to experience, plop parking lots and parkas between RHW and RCI lots, for road connection. I put subways at the tags, because in this city I`m mixing bus with subway for the residential and commercial areas. For Industrial area I`ll keep the trains, for freight obviously. And Im using the rail to sobway piece to connects it all. PS. It only passes passenger trains, the freight trains "Shall not pass". I aways want to write that... Next little nice buildings, including water park, Candy park, and park/bus/metro station. See U around, -
FOrmidable! Man u are Genius! See u around,

1ST city, Manhattan area... Enjoy and feel free to comment. So let`s go for what you came to see: My Virtual City. I downloaded several city maps here, one was the are that I live Curitiba, but between several good maps (like Seattle map) I chose a NY city MAP by: https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/5089-new-york-city-ny/ First Pictures: As usual in my game pattern I always place civic buildings 1st, then I think the way that traffic will move and construct big avenues in that sense. Ps. Tribute to the acclaimed best New York Mayor ever: David Dinkins Then, by coincidence, the NAM 37 was released then, like a child, I went to use my First time NAM. Of course I needed to watch couple hours of videos explaining how to use NAM and some how to construct intersections and viaducts, the two that most helped me was: 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJoa7KTP1Tg&list=LLgTrls2bdo2NDEw8gZt8Dvw&index=10&t=1014s 2.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhlOPOIbtMM&list=LLgTrls2bdo2NDEw8gZt8Dvw&index=9&t=495s So I did prepare terrain for a 10 lane road, took me like 4 hours to construct including watching videos. Tip: if you are new at NAM like me, be patient and pay attention at the buttons clicked in the videos. So, my 10 lanes road with road width transitions and projected to have 3 double rails under (starting in the tunnel at botton of the image and finishing at rails intersection. So after all that Story that tested your patience, following pictures of my starting city. Called "starting city" the moment that I expend the biggest amount that I can to construct a City, for this one was 350K. PS. I destroyed the 10 lane road to build one in proportion with the size of my city (4 lanes). Then I build the MIS, by the picture you can see that I not used curved MIS curved roads, little pardon here, 1st time using. In future, when I will substitute that 4 lanes for a 10 lanes, I promess that I will do a pretty one. That one cost me couple hours. After the road built, I stretched the industrial/agricultural area for the other side of the Hudson using rails, it appears that hold nice my commuting time with buses network. PS. A lot of beautiful farms down there, now I understand why so many post of small cities, farm cities and small neighborhood , is so much beautiful than big commercial areas...

I did install the NAM 37 in three steps: 1. Deleted the old NAM folders ("Network Addon Mod" and "z___NAM" folders), at ~\Documents\Simcity4\Plugins 2. Ran the 4GB Patch (ps. double click at the patch and select your "SimCity 4.exe" at ~\programfiles\maxis(steam,etc..)\Simcity4\app\) 3. Unzip NAM 37 anywhere out any Plugin folder (I did at download folder) and double click "NetworkAddonMod_Setup_Version37.jar" If don`t work that way, read everything (I read everything before install). Astonishing work!!! See you around.
