    Just to update: The game isn't crashing atm with:-CustomResolution:enabled -r1280x1024x32 -F -CPUCount:1 -intro:off -CPUPriority:High And within the game 'Software' is preselected. Shall I continue to use or are there further settings are required?

    Thanks for coming back to me. Plot deepens: Yesterday after I posted above SC4 started to work with the same code. So I must have closed re-opened it to test for at least 5 times and for each time it didn't crash. It isn't opening now. Then I made the changes as suggested but still not opening. Difference was that yesterday I used the PC for some other tasks then tried it worked. I'm very near to giving up, lol Here is the log : I really appreciate everyone's help and guidance they have provided.

    @twalsh102 I have uninstalled SC4 and re-installed but still same issue. I have checked the logs in Event Viewer but there is nothing related to SC4. As suggested above PC does have enough resources to support this game but can't thing anything which is causing the issue. I play other games fine e.g. Cities:Skylines -CustomResolution:enabled -r1024x786x32 -F -CPUCount:1 -intro:off -CPUPriority:High -d:software ::: Is This correct?

    @rsc204 Sorry to moan again the game is crashing again at the region screen. My Current system is WIN8 Graphic Card is AMD Radeon HD 8470 I have -CustomResolution:enabled -r1024x786x32 -F -CPUCount:1 -intro:off -CPUPriority:High in Launch Options Do you think that OS upgrade to WIN10 will fix the issue?

  13. Hi, I had been playing SC4 since start of Nov 2020. But it crashes each it reaches the region screen, nothing changed since yesterday. I can't understand why it started to crash. I played it fine yesterday. So far I've re-installed it. Removed Mods but still no luck.

    Update: After amending the resolution and setting it to 1024x786, in lunch options, it started to work. Then I re-installed NAM 38 and patched SC4 located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SimCity 4 Deluxe\Apps using 4gb_patch. I kept on working. As pointed out above I may have forgotten to patch correctly the first time. Thanks Guys. I really appreciate your help.
  15. Hi Guys, I've strange one. Last week I purchased SIMCITY4 on Steam last week. Initially it didn't work as it kept on crashing on the Region screen despite adding the code (-CustomResolution:enabled -r1152x864x32 -f -CPUCount:1 -intro:off -CPUPriority:High) in Steam Lunch Options and setting Compatibility to XP service Pack 3 But suddenly it started to work fine without any issue. But then I decided to install MOD NAM38 but since then it crashes every time. -I removed MOD and uninstalled and re-installed the game but still crashing each time on the Region screen. I Just want to play the game even without the MOD. Any help
