  1. @Cyclone Boom - I just reinstalled the game, and copied back my old plug-ins folder since I'm continuing my gameplay. How do I check/test if this mod is still working properly? I started a new region and noticed $$ residents kicking out my $ residents.
  2. Yup! I love using me mouse instead of the damn trackpad...
  3. @rsc204 - You were absolutely right on the land value part. See screenshot below!!! Too green for any low EQ/low wealth sims to move in! So I've started a new city (Fairview District 03) with absolutely no decorations, just roads and residential zones to trigger regional growth. Seems to be working for now, fingers crossed. I was so used to playing in my previous region where there's already 15+ cities, so this silly issue never came up. Oh, the damn joys and pains of playing SC4, where there's always a new issue to solve. LOL! Note to self: This region is going to be a pain in the ass to develop for the first 100+ years of so.
  4. @rsc204 - Hey man. It's been a while. Hope you're doing well, and thanks for the advice. Since it's a new region, would it help if I switch my another city (completely empty), and create natural R/C/I demand there first, and over time, hopefully that would spur demand/growth in the above city which I overdeveloped?
  5. Hi All, I'm having a silly problem with a new region I've just started. There's ample jobs (Commercial, Industrial & Farms) for this new city I just started up, however after close to 1 year of running the city, my residential zone is not developing at all. I can't identify the reason, so asking for help. HELP!!!
  6. Just to share my personal experience trying to Install SimCity 4 on two of my laptops after reformatting my old one, with the same installation methods for both: 1) Selenite X - Running on AMD processor + GTX 3080, Windows 11 = Cannot run on Hardware (DX) or OpenGL. = Runs on software but extremely laggy & buggy. = Gave-up and uninstalled the game. 2) Selenite Pro - Runnin on Intel processor + GTX2060, Windows 10 = Able to run on Hardware (DX). = Smooth most of the time, unless running large cities that have populations more than 1 million. = Getting back into playing the game again with CAM + NAM + plug-ins that I've accumulated over the past year. As much as I love playing the game and the support community, I really hope there's a better City Builder that's up & coming to replace the best of the best, SC4.

  7. CAM Revival Project

    ASV7900 replied to deezedgod's topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    May I ask, as part of this project, will there be a CAM 3.0? With more and more enhancements and improvements vs. 2.0?

  8. CAM - Population Caps

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    Thanks for the detailed explanation. So in summary, there's a few choice paths when installing the mods: 1) Existing Region - Do not demolish previously plopped parks / rewards, otherwise will result in 3x negative cap reliefs. Unless you want to go down the difficult path and demolish & re-plop everything. Should still be okay to use for regional expansion if no major demolishment planned, right? 2) New Region - Perfect start for CAM & this mods. Can I also ask, any crash to desktop issues faced? I'm going to try this out.

  9. CAM - Population Caps

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    @rsc204 - Thanks for the excellent uploads. May I ask, if I install these dat files, will it affect previously plopped Parks and Rewards? Asking cause my region is halfway developed with CAM Skyscrapers, and having to destroy each park & rewards previously plopped and do it from scratch would be a major pain point.

  10. CAM - Population Caps

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    @rsc204- Thanks for sharing the 3x3 Park. Let me give it a try out. On trying to mod the MAXIS parks, I would agree that they require CAMifying - and even those reward buildings that give CAP Reliefs for residentials. That way it wouldn't be cheating too much, since the bigger rewards earned gives a bigger CAP Relief, while the parks give smaller proportionate CAP Reliefs as well. For example - CAP Relief Rewards (Since CAM increases Stages from 8 to 15, basically 2x the number of available stages, the CAP Relief from these rewards +related MAXIS parks can be 2x as well?) • Farmer’s Market (R§, R§§) • Major Art Museum (R§§, R§§§) • Major League Stadium (R§, R§§) • Minor League Stadium (R§, R§§) • Opera House (R§§§) • Tourist Trap (R§) I'm quite surprised nobody faced CAP Relief issues playing with CAM + NAM before and not much custom content out there either.

  11. Mayor names not showing

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    Sharing the screenshot. Will all the boxes ticked, the Mayor Names are still missing.

  12. CAM - Population Caps

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    Thanks for the comprehensive reply. I've read the Prima Guide + CAM documents and I'm aware of the Cap Relief - which made me factor in building a lot of large parks / flower gardens / plazas on my map, depending on the zoning. That being said, it still doesn't seem sufficient enough. I've grown my R$ & R$$$ after that screenshot, let me share my latest one here. Have grown my R$ & R$$$ to match the jobs demand, and built even more parks to try and provide Cap Relief for R$$ - with some additional custom content (parks & stadiums), but it's a long journey and painfully slow process though. You're right about the regular Hospitals, Schools and other services - I've already downloaded the necessary upgraded services to account for CAM, and going well so far. Noted on the landmarks for Com population - funny thing, I never seem to face issues growing Com on CAM. Their demand is always sky high, especially with my region growing so nicely (Total Population now 12 million +++).

  13. CAM - Population Caps

    ASV7900 replied to ASV7900's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    I've built both stadiums + the stock exchange. Basically, almost all my rewards have been plopped, but I'm still hitting the caps. That being said - I have CAM installed, and city size is more than 1 million. I guess I have to download some custom stadiums to boost it further? Does building landmarks lower the demand caps?
  14. Hello everyone! I'd like to ask for some help. As you can see from below census screenshot, I'm about to hit a population cap on my R$$. How do I solve this / bring the cap down? What is the most effective way to do so? My SC4 game is running with CAM + NAM, and this is the XL city tile (below Bigger City + Big City). Thank you.
  15. Hello SC4 Peeps, Silly question here - Some of my cities don't have the Mayor Name's appearing. This region is the tutorial region, so I'm wondering if it's related to some bug or something. Any help / insight on how to fix it would be appreciated. Thanks.
