  1. Hey Vetinaris, haven't seen you in a while, hopefully everything is going well.

  2. Show us what you are working on in SimCity 3000!

    @THijSCiTy Your research is fascinating
  3. Running SimCity 3000 in HD (or other resolutions)

    Thank you., i really needed this because the BAT only works on low-res, so I need a way to switch from standard to hd.
  4. Natural Growth Philosophies / Mindsets

    I tend to put road+power+water to the edge of the park, and two low-density comercial buildings, one on each side, on the end of the road. And that's it. One's a restaurant/cafe, the other is a souvenir shop. Done.

    @THijSCiTy Oh, I gottta try that 😁 Nice work 👍 This might help with your residential demand problems:
  6. Any possibility of meeting anyone of you IRL? SimCon...?

    Oh, I get that. You know, job, family, friends, other hobbies... Some of us are stuck in our ruts

    @SimCityHawk Wow. That's a really detailed port. And the farms are cute
  8. Any possibility of meeting anyone of you IRL? SimCon...?

    I'm just not looking for anything more than this site already provides. It's nice to swap creations and tips with people who are into the same thing, and joke around about it, but beyond that, no thanks. Sorry. 😐

    @Captain Adam Wow! Did you make them from nothing? I tried to re-model some buildings (not just change texturesž from of and props), but couldn't understand the coordinate system.

    I didn't have a problem last time either, now some things just glitch. But I'm sorting it out.

    Yep, that's the one I'm having trouble with. It's realy weird. I have 3 files: - scu.exe, original, created 2016-06-08; - scu_hd.exe, widescreen, created 2019-02-20; - shortcut When I open the original file - directly or via shortcut, whether it's called scu.exe or scu_orig.exe - it launches the game fine, in 3-4 ratio. When I try to open the widescreen file directly, renamed scu.exe, it throws an error - UV.dll not found. BUT When the hd file is called scu.exe, and I click the shortcut, the game launches! In 3-4 ratio! ??? And it's glacial. Loading a map takes a minute, and there's a lag of a few seconds. The file UV.dll exists in the Simcity3000Unlimited/Apps folder, but I'm not sure if it's corrupted. I've found it on a few sites, but they all have ambiguous reputation - some reviewers say they're trustworty and others say they've got malware. Also I'e found another site tat says that messing with the dll can crash your computer, so, yeah. I've also found a patcher here https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Thread-SimCity-3000-Resolution-Patcher I think I'm gonna try that one now and see if it works.

    I'll show you the whole thing when I get the wide-screen working.

    Thank you all for your sympathy. I have made use of data retrieval, and by some miracle, my private files were in the 5% uncorrupted files. The professional files were backed up so no losses. . I will be backing up my in-progress cities here from now on. I just can't get the game to play in wide-screen. It's alive! Campus and research center in one corner, military and rural sprawl across the river, nature park to the north. PS - the merchant quarter looks horrendous with the American building set.
