Trying to Recreate the Glory of SimCity 4 on my old PC on my MacBook
scottypup posted a topic in SC4 Mac Users
Hey everyone, On a whim back in March I bought downloaded SimCity 4 because of quarantine. I hadn't played it in about 7 years. I have an old PC that I had with all these cool patches and stuff. It just doesn't work anymore but I have a hard drive with those files. But I am trying to recreate some of the basic things that playing SimCity 4 meant to me back when I was playing it on PC. This one thing is that I liked to use building plop. I liked it especially because I enjoyed plopping a bunch of the gift item Casino everywhere, or making massive Universities or huge medical centers made out of "Gift" resources that I thought were so cool. Now I'm struggling to figure out how to do that on a Mac. I'd like to just make a bunch of movie studios or something next to each other. I tried to install MacInjector today. It was something I had been meaning to do since I bought the game for Mac. However, after i went through it, it now seems that I cannot even open SimCity 4. I'd be curious if anyone knows how to take care of that. So if anyone knows how I can plop unlimited gift items, I'd appreciate it. The actual game mechanics of taxes and trash collection aren't what I find engrossing about the game. I like painting with these textures and using it as a springboard for imagination. -

Yes I just did that it seems to have worked. Do you have any suggestions for how to plop unlimited gift items in a city? No worries if you can't think of any. thank you for your help! -

No, I am running High Sierra, which is working well for me. I downloaded mac injector and the extra cheats files back in April which is around when I installed SimCity 4. I don't know why it wouldn't work if I'm not at Catalina yet. Regardless it would be helpful to figure out how to open up the program of SimCity 4 first. And then see where I could go from here know the limitations. That is where the fun of creativity begins.
