  1. McDonald's

    Snacko reviewed oppie's file in SimCity (2013) Buildings

    I love the McDonalds & Burger King. But for some reason when I try to plop them the objects are far away from my cursor. I don't have this problem with other plopables. Is there a fix for this?
  2. I have a triple screen setup and it is all working fine with the game. But it would be nice if the Toolbar at the bottom was just on the center monitor. And if other popups and menus could be located to the center monitor as well. I did a search for a mod to do this, but came up empty. Is there anything like this around? Thanks!
  3. Hmm... ok, well I guess not. So, I decided to make one using Sapphire's UI Framework mod. I'll put it in the workshop if I can get it working.
  4. I have seen several sites hosting mods that appear to be created/hosted by the Steam Workshop. One site even says that's it's downloadable mods are from the Steam Workshop. So, I was wondering if there is a 'best' way to install mods? Is there any problems with using the Steam Workshop? Or is this just a personal preference where some users just like to manually install and keep their own mods on their pcs, maybe so they can back them up or something? Sorry, if this was a dumb question. I just want to start out installing mods the best way.. Thanks.

  5. Tapatalk support?

    Snacko replied to The_Balm's topic in General Off-Topic

    The current version of Tapatalk works very well and makes it easy to keep up with the forums that support it. I'm really surprised more people haven't replied to this post.

  6. new game Cities XXL

    Snacko replied to Ocram's Razr's topic in Cities XXL

    If they would just fix the mouse view control, I would buy this thing. Again.. I hate the 'forced' zoom levels and wish they just gave us totally Free Control of the zoom level. Even the zoom view mod didn't really help a lot, but it was something I did use..

    Great, thanks!

  8. SimCity 2013 Mods Switch

    Snacko commented on UguuDoki's file in SC13 Programs & Tools

    Does this tool 'know' which mods work online or offline, or do you have to tell it?   It seemed to know that the 4 mods I have installed are offline since it checked that box by default...

    The first time I tried 2.2 it crashed when I clicked the 'Toggle' button at the bottom.  That button is gone in 2.3, so I just clicked 'Save & Exit' and 2.3 also crashed with an Unhandled

  11. I installed Oppie's McDonalds & Burger King building mods yesterday. From what I understand, they are not plopable, but automatically appear in Commercial zones? But I have played 2 cities for several hours now and not seen either one.
  12. Sorry, I'm new... How do I select 'Medium Wealth' zones? Or do I just have to wait for them to upgrade the zones automatically?
  13. Thanks smalljude.
  14. I am confused as to which files to download.  I downloaded these 2 files:   OFFLINE-ONLY_UniDirectionalNetworks_1.6.zip RegionalRoad-1.6.package.zip   Do I need any others, or do I even need both of these, or are they the same thing?
  15. Sorry if this is a dumb question.. I'm a little confused about the mods that say "Offline Only". If I install them and later play an online game, what will happen? I guess my question is, do I have to uninstall all of the "Offline Only" mods every time that I want to play online??
  16. Thanks!
  17. Argg... Why can't I play the stupid game when "I" want too??
  18. For me it happened a few days ago. It happened twice within 10 minutes, so I gave up. It worked ok yesterday. I don't usually leave the game running for a long time with me not using it. I did that once and found out that it did not like that.
  19. That's how online game verification is always? It always is inconsistent?
  20. Oh, I just went into SimCity and I click Resume game and it gives me that message... I tried to play the game 3-4 times and it gave me the same message..... So, I finally exited the game and restarted it and then it let me play it. I played it for about 10 minutes and exited so that it would 'sync with the cloud'. That seems to be a good thing to do since I have had so many times that it says it 'cannot sync with the stupid cloud'. So, I try to exit a city once in a while to see if I am going to loose anything. So, about an hour later I restarted that city and it said again: "Unable to load the game at this time. Try again later.." So, I exited the game and tried again and that time it loaded he city. I don't know what to tell you... ARGGGGGGG!!! It's just acting stupid. My computer is fine. I'm a 54 year old Software Engineer, and build my pc. SimCity has problems that are being worked put. All of the problems are not worked out though... Very annoying.. Snacko

  21. Yes! It's Possible!

    Snacko replied to Catchin22's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion

    Which Region map did you use for this Catch?
  22. Some games are already getting big money close to this. Rise of Flight was I believe $49 when it first came out with only 4 planes. I now own about 25 planes. they normally sell for between $8-15 for bombers and special planes. Sometimes you can buy them on sale in packs. They also sell scarfs, goggles, pistols, compasses, and other upgrades for $5-10. If the game is successful, after a while you forget about the original investment and plop down $5 here and $10 there when your friends show you some of their planes and other stuff and you get some good feedback. In Simcity, I don't really see paying just one building unless it's like a huge airport with lot's of options and things to customize it. Maybe huge recreational or industrial harbors? But not for a cool Burger King... And I hope the modding community is able to provide lot's of free stuff, and it's not all just payware.

  23. Free Game?

    Snacko replied to Catchin22's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion

    I bought my first driving game (Shift 2 Unleashed) just last week with the $30 store credit from pre-purchasing SC5. I don't like driving it with the keyboard. It's too hard IMHO. No fun. If I could just steer with my mouse that seems like it would be better, but I don't really know. I have a Saitek x52 joystick and pedals for my flight simulators and tried using the twist feature of the joystick (rudder) to drive and that was better than the keyboard, but still probably won't play that much either. Just bought it to help fill up the discount amount.

  24. Free Game?

    Snacko replied to Catchin22's topic in SimCity (2013) General Discussion

    I got the popup about the free games when I started Origin client today. But I hate all the choices. There is nothing there for me. I don't like FPS'ers, so that removes 1/2 of the choices. I already have Simcity4. Why would I want to play that when I have this??? I don't have a steering wheel, and don't want one. Can't play those driving games with your mouse. So that's worthless... And I didn't build a $2500 pc to play board games, so I don't want Bejeweled or that stupid zombie pos. Hey, guess what.. I just spent $60 on this new Simcity game.. How about something for that. Seriously, If you don't play First Person Shooters, the other choices are crap. Too bad really.. The offer was a nice idea from Origin. Some DLC for this game would have made me pretty happy really. Oh well, I'm not even going to pick any of those games. I won't play them, and it will just remind me of a wasted opportunity to get something free I wanted. Snack

    Same here.. would rather have some DLC than anything else..
