Can someone help me out with a few questions?
Brooklyn81 posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Hi everybody! I've played SimCity since it first came out long ago, then progressed through the different versions, bought SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition immediately when it came out back in '03. I've played the game for tons of hours, eventually learned about mods and downloading buildings, then eventually learned about NAM and finally, just recently, downloaded NAM 34. A week ago I caved and bought SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition from the Origin website, and I hadn't played the game for a month or two due to me switching over to Windows 10 (really wish I didn't). Ok, now that a little back story is over, I have some questions. DISCLAIMER: I'm pretty terrible with computers, so please excuse me not quite understanding responses if they get too in depth regarding the intricacies of files, programming, etc. I'm a decent learner, but when it gets into real computery stuff I need dumbed down directions to move forward. APOLOGY: I couldn't seem to find somewhere on the site with a forum called 'Help' where I could post this, but I'm sure there's a placd where my post would fit better, so I apologize, I couldn't find the right place. My questions don't quite fit in the 'Technical Help' thing I saw because it's not too much about hardware problems and such. First of all, I can't seem to rename my region. I never had a problem doing this before, but now that I have the digital version that I bought from Origin I cannot seem to rename my region. I started with how I used to do it, by simply right-clicking on the region I wanted to change while in the SC4 files. This didn't work. I saw on a post on this site somewhere about finding a file titled 'regions.ini' double clicking on it and change the title line to whatever name I want to change it to. I tried that. Didn't work. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. If anyone could help me with this I would really appreciate your input. Second thing is kind of general, related to NAM 34. Although I've played SC4 for many years, I'm new to this mod. I have looked on YouTube for videos showing me step by step instructions on how to use this mod, but there is a slim selection of videos and they are short and only cover one component of NAM 34 that I'm not really interested in. I am mostly interested in mass transit options, but you have to do things very specifically, and there really isn't too many directions I have been able to find. Does anyone know of a video that shows, in a very basic, dumbed-down way, how to build different things using NAM? Like I said, I'm not quite interested in the highway and roads aspects, mostly just mass transit (subway, high-speed rail, tram, elevated subway, etc.). Any help on that would be appreciated as well. The world of NAM 34 is confusing and uncharted territory for me. Sorry for writing a novel folks. Thank you all for reading and any help/suggestions you have.
