Stretched texture invisible at certain angle or zoomed in
xonedl posted a topic in Cities: Skylines Technical Help Q&A
I'm trying to make turning lane / exit ramp in realistic fashion - which means low angle and proper distance following measurements from real world intersections. While the result looks fine when zoomed out, the road texture went invisible (blue) when zoomed in at certain angle, which makes detailing works rather annoying. Segments as following picture. I dunno how other people do it, but upon my own trial and error, I find that have all segments at the same length will eliminate the problem of tarmac going crazy, although still need to wiggle it a bit. The following picture shows it went blue (invisible). Any clue how I can deal with this problem, or is there better way of creating / aligning these segments? //-- Also there appear to be some weird behavior, where bums & holes suddenly appear on some of the nodes when I moving things with MoveIt nearby, I had to select everything and re-level with MoveIt to get them back to normal often. Guess I really breaking the game here... -
I have a single tile with the odd characteristics: -nothing appears on it -if i build a road next to it, it adds a sidewalk as if something is there -i cannot build on top of it -i can bulldoze as many times as I want but the above 3 properties remain. -i can terraform the spot and still 1-3 remain. Is there anything I do to be able to use this single tile, or is it broken forever? Thanks!

I have an issue at random times where when I save my city, it seems to take forever, except it did not. What happens is when I save my city, the dialog box that tells me that it was saved is invisible, hidden, or is behind the city itself. I cannot see the "city saved" box and at this point, the only thing I can do is just click everywhere on the screen of my game until I happen to click where the hidden dialog box is. This can take anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes to find this invisible dialog box. This gets annoying. Does anybody else have this problem? I have had this problem since the day I first started playing SimCity 4 in 2006 and it happens randomly since then. SC4Fix doesn't correct this issue apparently as well as a few other issues.

Plugins failing to load - invisible base textures
Map Guy posted a topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Hi folks I have an issue which cropped up a little while ago in another region that I played that is now happening in a new one I've recently started for my CJ. Whenever I load a city up, it frequently fails to load all of my plugins, so that items are missing in the menus. This has so far only affected non-Maxis lots, and I've seen both ploppable and also a few growable Industrial lots affected. The result of the plugins that fail to load is a transparent base texture - they appear normal except for the missing base - no brown boxes, no missing props, etc. The terrain texture beneath is visible. The unfortunate outcome is that the game now is largely unplayable with plugins as it's now a lottery as to which will load up! And if ones I've already used don't, then I get the transparent base texture. The problem has only come about since I started playing SC4 again recently after a couple of months away from it. In that time, I can think of two things that have changed that might have caused this. 1. I installed NAM 32 2. Windows has updated Vista in this timeframe. The fact the lots still load and the props are still there leads me to believe that it isn't a prop pox. And I don't think it's my laptop struggling to load plugins - it could be, but I have only installed NAM 32 and a handful of other new bits and pieces since I started playing again. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, is there a solution? Is it Windows demonstrating their increasing inability to release stable software updates? As an aside I've noticed my laptop has various problems after I exit SC4 now, varying from programs not running at all, to resolution and display issues, certain applications not working, Windows Explorer not working, all at different times. This makes me think it could be the Windows updates, but if that's the case then it can't just be me having these problems. Admittedly there can't be many people running SC4 on Vista these days, I'm one of the last of a dying breed! But there must be others on Vista that might know about this perhaps? I've attached some pictures below to illustrate the problem. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Here, the market stalls have failed to load: You can see the missing texture on Matt325b's Courthouse here: And finally the base textures for the church and bus stop are missing here. It affects transit-enabled lots the same as standard lots.
