TheMurderousCricket posted a topic in SimCity 3000 Resource Club's SC3000 Ordinances
"Legalized Gambling allows the establishment of casinos offering card, table, and mechanical games of chance as defined by the State "Right To Be Stupid Act" of 1895 and ammended the following year. The city regulates the vigorish and takes a percentage of profits from all city gambling establishments each month. Even though gambling boosts the treasury, it attracts unsavory types prone to petty crime." -
if gambler capacity and hotel rooms is such easily stackable and dont need any area, maybe absolute number of tourists is that gambling realily needed

Slow Yet Steady & Studied Growth - 25 Years In
JcCali1214 posted a City Journal entry in Belflower City Redux
English: After 25 years since the city's founding Bellflower City has grown to nearly 8,500 citizens, complete with expanding, distinct neighborhoods connected through ever-diversifying multi-modal transit options. Further attracting residents to the region was the climatic shift that happened to welcome more tropical weather, and with it, the foilage and fauna that come with it. Español: Después de 25 años desde la fundación de la ciudad, Bellflower City ha crecido a casi 8,500 habitantes, con vecindarios distintosque están conectados a través de opciones de transporte multimodal más diversas. Lo que atrajo aún más a los residentes a la región fue el cambio climático que dio la bienvenida a un clima más tropical y, con esta, el follaje y la fauna que lo acompañan. En: To improve the city's budget, Mayor Swizzy convinced the Bellflower Citizens' Council to bet the farm and legalize gambling; the Mattb325 Design Firm continued its ascendancy in the Ríoside neighborhood by swiftly constructing the Bellflower Galaxy Casino. The city coffers quickly rejuvenated - as the popularity of the new skyscraper in town easily depleted citizens' wallets. Es: Para mejorar el fondo de la ciudad, el Alcalde Swizzy convenció al Consejo de Ciudadanos de Bellflower a legalizar los juegos de apostando; la firma de diseño Mattb325 siguió construyendo su reputación en el barrio de Ríoside al construir rápidamente el Bellflower Galaxy Casino. Las arcas de la ciudad se rejuvenecieron rápidamente - ya que la popularidad del nuevo rascacielos en la ciudad vaciada fácilmente las billeteras de los ciudadanos. En: With the city's budget on an upward trajectory, Mayor Swizzy buttressed the multi-modal culture of the City by allocating funding to add a new transit option offered to citizens: trams! The Cogeo, Khoianh and Z1 design firms were awarded the winning bids to design and construct the inaugural stations. Es: Con el fondo de la ciudad en una trayectoria ascendente, el Alcalde Swizzy reforzó la cultura multimodal de la ciudad asignando dinereo para agregar una nueva opción de transporte que se ofrece a los ciudadanos: ¡los tranvías! Las firmas de diseño Cogeo, Khoianh y Z1 ganó las ofertas para diseñar y construir las estaciones inaugurales. En: The careful planning by the mayor & his team paid off! Citizen surveys show that a majority of the populace is using the readily available transit options at their disposal. Es: La cuidadosa planificación del alcalde y su equipo valió la pena! Las encuestas de ciudadanos muestran que la mayoría de la población está utilizando las opciones de transporte disponibles. En: In fact, historical data demonstrate that the city's urban design favors walkability, with the population reaching a watershed moment having a majority ditched vehicular travel as the primary method of travel years ago. Es: De hecho, los datos históricos demuestran que el diseño urbano de la ciudad favorece la caminabilidad, con la población llegando a un momento decisivo en el que la mayoría abandonó a viajar de vehiculo como el método principe de viaje hace años. En: Though growing slowly, the citizens are proud of their developing neighborhoods - so much so they petitioned to retexturize their local streets to give their neighborhoods even more character. Es: Aunque crece lentamente, los ciudadanos están orgullosos de sus vecindarios en desarrollo, tanto que solicitaron retexturizar sus calles locales para darles a sus vecindarios aún más carácter.- 2 Comments

Hi there, I'm having a problem getting hotels to spawn; I'm building a gambling/culture city that is going pretty well, at the moment the city have 5 casinos (1 luxury hotel full with $$$ gambling addons, 2 sleek and 2 cheap with full $ and $$ gambling addons), all the 3 possible landmarks (Edificio Copan, Empire State Building and Sydney Opera House) and the Pro Stadium; the city have all forms of public transportation except streetcars (3 ferry and boat terminal, one train station and 1 municipal airport with 4 passengers addons and 4 runways); the city have a draw of 65k/85k with more then 1k tourist/h and it's going decently (1kk$/day profit) but I'd like to get some hotels. The problem is that no matter what I do they somehow refuse to spawn; I tried running the Sydney and Pro Stadium events everyday for quite some time, bulldozing some medium density commercial from all wealth class every day and the city is not at the beginning of year 6 but not a single hotel spawned; I could plop them with the plop mod but before doing that I'd like to get some hotels to spawn naturally. Is there anything that prevent hotels from spawning while playing offline? Am I doing something wrong or am I being just incredibly unlucky? Thanks in advance for helping, Paraffine

Can't stop medium wealth from coming in on Cruise ships
brendanbennett posted a topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
I have 1 active (and 1 closed) Roman luck casino and 1 recently put-in sleek casino (just to temporarily get money from the medium wealth). I have 4 high density hotels next to them. I also have the Dutch windmill, Arch de Triomphe and the Statue of Liberty. (see Images, attached). I have tried running it for a while with 2 Roman luck casinos active, no medium hotels, nothing apart from docks for inter-city/region transport and an elite tourism crown. I was losing about 10000/hour and sometimes dipping to 30000/hour and apart from one or two ships with some on, no high wealth gamblers. I don't really know what to do, any suggestions? Images.zip -

I have tweaked parkerwyoung's Casino Overhaul Mod to now have wealth-exclusive casinos. You can now build a city which gets only high wealth or medium wealth tourists. I tested this mod with the Elegant Casino (High Wealth Only) and have attached screens as proof. Note that if you place a landmark, this mod will not work and you will get other wealth tourists. To use this mod as is intended, DO NOT PLACE ANY LANDMARKS. This is intended to be an OFFLINE-ONLY mod. Installation: NOTE: If you have parkerwyoung's CasinoOverhaul package file in ...SimCity\SimCityUserData\Packages, remove the file from the Packages folder. 1. Place "Mod-Nexus91110-WealthExclusiveCasinos.package" in ...SimCity\SimCityUserData\Packages 2. Place the provided "SimCity-Scripts_287520926.package" in ...SimCity\SimCityUserData\Packages 3. Place "Mod-Parker-CasinoPlopExtension-v1.0" in ...\SimCity\SimCityData I have written in the "ReadMe.txt" file what changes I have made to parkerwyoung's Casino Overhaul mod. I have also made some changes to the number of signs you can place for some casinos. This mod has all the features of parkerwyoung's Casino Overhaul Mod. Now you can bring in only medium wealth or high wealth or low wealth tourists. Have fun creating the ultimate rich people resort !!!

Huge renovation project initiated in Arrowhead Bay

Construction has begun already on Eohat Island when rumblings of Marriott Hotels wanting to open a new establishment, on the island. (Thank you to everyone for the Slope Mod suggestions. It looks amazing.) -
Hey guys, this is my first post in this forum and I would like to talk about Casinos today. I'm from Brazil, where Casinos are prohibited by law, and I have been playing Simcity for a long, long, long time. I thought that my "experience" playing this game so far, would help me building a Casino City, but it wouldn't. Everytime I tried to bring a Casino city to life, I failed when I put the Sci-Fi Casino. Because of that, I've started spend my time in something else. I went to the top in Trade, Eletronics, Oil and Metal. But no Casinos. When I get vacations from my University, I started working in this kind of city again, and I will show to you a "timeline" to follow to build the best casino city! Yes, I finally did it! First of all, at the moment you create your city, go in the Casino submenu and click in "guide". This will help you a lot. Put the first Gambling House, in a avenue not so far from your city entry and near a train station. And a police station VERY CLOSE to the casino area. When this GH reach aprox 20k/h, put another, right next to the first. When both of your Gambling Houses reaches 20k/h, time to put the Sci-Fi Casino and the bigger bus terminal. About this time, you have to do: Add more cells and police cars to the police station. Put monuments like Tower of Pisa, Liberty Statue, Eiffel Tower, Washington monument or Giralda near of your casinos. And a show house for medium and lower class, like the Expo Center or Globe Theater. Every night, make a show in both or just in one, this will help attract tourists to your city. When you reach Level 2, put the Games division in the headquarters. This will allow you to put more game modules in your casinos, attracting more tourists. With this, you will be very close to go to Level 3 in Casino Specialization, but it is not enough. Time to put the Luzidio. If your city is small, I mean, with a lot of mountains or water, you can just put another police station. However, if it is a full size map, put the bigger, the police district. Keeping make events/shows in your city. If you have water, put the cruise module in your ferry station. This should bring the first high end tourists. The mid-range casino, Luzidio, is the most profitable casino. With it, you will reach Level 3. Put the hospitality division. Why? This will permit your tourists to stay in your city more time. Now, you should have a good profitable casino city. But it is not enough. Time to put the Elegant Casino. About this time, you should have the following in your city: In your police district, make sure that you have increase the police cars to the max and put at least two cell blocks. A bus terminal increased to the max too. If you have space, put another ferry station and train station. Make sure that you have at least 3 kick-ass monuments near your casino area. Before put the Luzidio, put trams in your avenues, to link all the city areas to your casino area. WARNING: Casinos are really unstable. Make sure that you are making profits with your events at the Expo Center or whatever else. To help bring more high end tourists, make room for Sydney Opera House. This will bring a LOT high end tourists. Keep having events until you think that the high-ends tourists numbers are fine to you. (The mid-range casino should be crowded by now with high-end tourists, near to the capacity of them) Put the Elegant Casino (with hotels modules). Remember this casino is very expensive to maintain, so put it when you have a 1.000.000+ in your city funds. Just to make sure you won't fail. In addition of that, this casino is very unstable. But don't get rid of it. Make more events in the Sydney Opera. After a couple times, stop it. Just keep making events in the Expo Center. This will make your high-end tourists go to the Elegant, since Sydney Opera is having nothing. By now, your Elegant should be profitable finally. So, wait until you reach 400k of profit to make the last improvement to the Casino headquarters. Here are some photos of my two Casino cities, Berkeri and Petra: Berkeri: Petra: A nice monster. Any doubts or tips? Talk to me here! I would be glad to help. And sorry for any English mistake... haha

Feel like losing some money? You've come to the right place. The TAB (Totalisator Agency Board), is your local sports betting venue. From nags, to dogs, to pollies, that's right, every kind of animal can be bet on at the TAB. First opened in Victoria in 1961, the TAB was a government department until the 90s when privatisation reared it’s ugly head. You are most likely to see TABs in working class areas, where people can afford it the least - but want it the most... The TAB comes in 4 lot configurations: 1x1, 1x2, 1x3 and a 1x2 corner lot. They will most likely count towards future TD reward chains. These lots are growable only but if you want to plop one you can use the extracheats.dll plugin to do so. Compatibility This download is only compatible with SimCity 4 incl. the "Rush Hour" expansion pack or SimCity 4 Deluxe. Installation Simply add the folder to your documents SC4 plugins folder. Uninstallation For uninstalling the files, bulldoze every lot from this download in your cities and delete the files from the plugins folder afterwards. Dependencies To avoid brown boxes, as well as to ensure proper functionality, make sure these files are in your plugins folder: TD Essentials BSC MEGA Props - MJB Vol01.dat BSC MEGA Props - SG Vol 01.dat Can't see the lights at night? In order to see the nightlighting, you must install the EP1-Update 1 for Rush Hour/SimCity 4 Deluxe (also found at sc4devotion.com in case you have problems at the official site), and then afterwards, install the SC4-Update for nightlighting (note: you have to be logged in in order to see the download link). If this update isn't installed, you won't see any lighting effects on custom BAT buildings. Disclaimer The usual rules apply, feel free to modify this to your hearts content, but any uploads containing original parts of this lot must link to it as a dependency (unless prior arrangement has been made). Credits Cheers to dobdriver/drunkapple for the final mod work on this (adding the audio file, queries & OG numbers). Here's to TD!- 18 Comments
