Solution to the left/right driving issue
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to rendermad's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
Originally posted by: rendermad I've noticed that some people have bought the game in either europe or australia and have installed the English version (Which is actually the UK English version) and the cars drive on the left side of the road, but would prefer to have them drive on the right.I have come up with a solution for this issue, involving using the Registry Editor. I am not very experienced with programming so I haven't managed to come up with some way of making this easier, but it still works. Create a folder in your SimCity 4 folder (probably Program Files/SimCity 4/) named English. Copy the SimcityLocale.dat file from the language you wish the game to be in into that folder. Open the Registry editor (press the start button on your taskbar, select run.. then type regedit ) Navigate to the folder under the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Maxis/SimCity 4/1.0 Double click where it say Language, a window will open up, replace the highlighted number with a 1. Click OK. Close the Registry Editor. That should do it. It has been confirmed that the fix works for SC4 with or without Rush Hour. EDIT: I've changed the instructions according to the some new information by DangerDave quote> i already did all of that but i dont get a number i get EnglishUK and i changed it into english US but i dont get the value number "i have the UK version switching left to right coz of the traffic lights problem" -

Rebuilding New Orleans
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to willfryar's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
i'm not sur about you lot but i think the venice idea could be a good one but only partially i do think new orleans should move to the edge of the sea level that way if ANOTHER hurricane comes along at least the water will drain out and the port can be rebuilt i'm not sure about existing new orleans if that should turn into old new orleans like futurama the venice thing could get some money however drilling for oil is stupid the loss of oil will be the downfall of the economically developed countries so the reserve is important until we adapt to hydrogen or solar so drilling just to put prices down and money in to build new orleans is stupid -
I hope i can get a texturer as it turns out im reeeeeeeeeealy stupid and they wont import i hope a texturer will come along i've already tried start with pathmodding

Trains -- Rail and Freight -- How To!?
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to mpereira123's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
i'm not sure but passenger trains must have at least 2 stations to work or a bus station to make any use of it I suggest you get those on road bus stops that ruin any block and are very annoying -
eight laned road has the same capacity of two avenues but only taking up three tiles instead of four tiles wide this would be a life saver for me and no medians please I don't think this is an addon but a new road entirely

Cities infrastructure
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to Astroman's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
I know a great place but it has it's problems edinburgh scotland's capital they have the highest bus usage in britain (i think) but they aren't cramped it is relativley easy into the city centre via bus as there are lots of bus lanes but by car you will have to park elsewhere as no cars are allowed on princes street (CBD) It would have a subway if they didn't need dynamite too blow the hole there is a high speed link direct from the airport to the city centre and the main train station waverly has high train usage by commuters but they aren't cramped and the CBD has no congestion the roads round about it do there is congestion on the bypass which is very heavy and edinburgh has a relitivley small pop. of 32000 to 67000 during festival season june-august and no abandoned buildings whatsoever bad parking -
Cities infrastructure
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to Astroman's topic in Architecture & Urban Planning
london is the same minus the mass transit being good, the subway (nicknamed the tube ) is usually crowded and smelly the M25 (highway that goes around london) is always congested and someone even wrote a song about it the road to hell was invented. it gave it title of world's biggest carpark they keep widening it but that's no good what they should widen is the roads around the offramps more off than on the rail isn't too bad but they are usually late so are the buses minimum delay 30 minutes and the roads are terrible as well -
im going to embark on a quest for a BIG massive thick road

BIG eight laned road 4 each way
umnoscottishhootsmon replied to umnoscottishhootsmon's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
two problems james50000000 the textures are on the previous page if there is to be no sidewalk second since most roads HAVE to have a sidewalk (usually rural roads or highways are excluded) and enough room for more than an italian style car through it someone will have to figure out how to change it to three tiles and to put one line on the border of the tile I don't want to put you off as I really want this to go through but i'm a noobie so im playing with fire on this topic which I started and messing with what I don't know -
