I recently got my hands on a disc copy of Special Edition, and was wondering if it was pre-patched (with the official updates, 1.1 and 1.2)?

Vintage New York City is a Tile Set Conversion for SimCity 2000 Windows, or the Special Edition. Basically its' New York before the 1940's , or when the Empire State building was the tallest in the world. This really is an awesome Tile set if I have to say it my self! I spent no less than Four Hundred hours digging through tiles and old scurk pages. Then i had to create original scurk as well! This will definitely bring new life into the great. This is no slouch, careful work was done to ensure everything matches in scale and colour and realism. You can recreate a version of Manhattan, or even develop an alternate city. AMUST HAVE!!! INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS!!!! You may need an archive tool that Unzips compressed files such as WINRAR, its what I use. Then extract the file named 'VINTAGE NEW YORK CITY'.MIF to a folder called " SCURKART' , its 'where your SimCity 2000 is stored, or you can make an entirely new installation folder location just as long as you can find it! LOL Usually you can just double click on the File," VINTAGE NEW YORK CITY. MIF" and it will open to SCURK, or just right click and choose to open with SCURK. From there you will be able to access the goodies! From the main game. At the main menu of SimCity 2000 Special Edition there will be as follows.. LOAD CITY START NEW CITY EDIT NEW MAP LOAD SCENARIO WATCH WILL TV ***LOAD TILE SET*** QUIT Click on load tile set and it will take you to a directory screen, LOOK IN, SCURKART, or where ever you extracted to and select the tile set, " VINTAGE NEW YORK CITY.MIF. Once selected it will take you back to the main menu, from there you can choose what ever you want. When you begin the game you'll notice that mostly everything is different! IN GAME Once you have started a new city or what ever and your in the game, you can load the tile set from there by, clicking 'FILE' at the top left hand side of the screen and selecting," Load Tile Set". It will take you to the same directory . Look In.. The folder where you extracted , "VINTAGE NEW YORK CITY.MIF and select it! The city will then be the new tiles! CREATED BY G.F JAY COSIS.

I would like to change the mayor's name in SC 2k for DOS. I didn't put anything in for the mayor name during install. Found instructions for changing the mayor name in the Windows reg. See the 1st screen capture. And the 2nd screen capture is mine before I made the changes. I entered the strings just the way they were in the 1st screen capture except for the default mayor's name in the 1st screen capture. I put my 1st name in the mayor's string. But it isn't working. I also did a reboot of the laptop to see if that would make a difference. It didn't. I don't know why.

Hi, I made a small demo in unity which can open SimCity2000 cities (.sc2 files) in 3D. I've tried to reconstruct buildings to look the same as in Sc2K, with "eye-candy". I think the buildings in Sc2k are very colorful and I've not seen them around, only a few, they have a special touch to them. I know it doesn't look the same as in the game, but still quite similar. So this is a very limited demo application, I can continue it if there is interest. I'm not really into graphics and 3D modeling so it looks like in the pictures.. some more features: ortho mode, perspective mode, traffic, day/night switch and 'ride on train'. You can view more images and download windows binary here. Short video I hope there are no legal issues with this, but I'm uncertain if doing this is allowed. Feedback is welcome.:)

This is a SimCity 2000 city I created around late 2016, when I challenged myself to earn all the reward buildings in a hard difficulty city. It took a couple tries but I eventually succeeded, and ended up with a pretty nice realistic-looking city if I say so. Well, realistic for SC2K. I took the screenshots on a Windows 98 virtual machine, because I didn't feel like going through the process of installing it on Windows 10. As far as I know this is the first non-SC3000.COM SC2K city on the STEX. -
Did you ever wonder what the inside of the arcologies could look like in SimCity 2000? These YouTube videos shows what could be the interior of the Plymouth Arcology. Exterior in Minecraft Interior in Minecraft I did not make these videos. There are many Minecraft versions of SC2K arcologies but this one seems to have a lot of work into it, right down to the apartments, gardens, service areas, maintenance, and plumbing. When I was a kid playing SimCity 2000, I always wondered what the inside of those arcologies could be like.

From the album Weekly Challenge #21 - Farming Scenes
My city is not big enough yet to build me a hemp paper mill, but when it is, I’ve got the building design lined up! I’m also planning to paint a 1-acre vegetable garden tile. ABOUT URBAN FARMING -Urban and peri-urban farms feed 1/4 of the world’s urban populace! -90% of Havana, Cuba’s fresh produce are grown in local urban farms and gardens -The city of Detroit, suffering from decades of industrial decline, has implemented policies leading to the creation of 1350 community gardens -The average conventional produce item travels 1,500 miles and generates 5 to 17 times more carbon dioxide pollution than its local-sourced counterpart -One study reported those participating in community gardens consumed fruits and vegetables 1.4 more times per day compared to non-participants, and were 3.5 times more likely to consume fruits or vegetables at least 5 times daily -Improved nutrition and freshness - preventing as much as 50% loss in nutrients compared to food that must travel many days to market -Greater crop diversity -Improves city aesthetic and air quality -Food security and economic development -Closer connection to nature for city dwellers -Portland, Oregon, with 22 acres of urban gardens, is considered a leading U.S. city in this regard.... 22 acres is less than 0.03% of the city’s land area... “Urban farming: Industrial hemp” depicts 24 acres under cultivation, in just this one small section of the city! ABOUT INDUSTRIAL HEMP -Until 1883, hemp was the #1 crop globally; today over 600,000 acres are cultivated -93% of paper is produced from trees -Hemp paper fiber can be recycled approximately 4x more than tree-sourced paper -Hemp yields up to 4x per acre as pulp trees -Yields 2-3x that of cotton, a crop that happens to account for 1% of U.S. acreage but 50% of pesticide use -During the Second World War, hemp was considered vital to the war effort and the ban on cultivation was lifted... President George H. Bush parachuted from a burning airplane with a parachute made of U.S.-grown hemp! -
sc2000 So cities can run themselves... Into the ground.

Hope you all are up for some nostalgia... I had installed Sim City 2000 awhile ago, since as long as I've lived, I've never properly played it. I've played Sim Copter, Streets of Sim City, and even found my way around SCURK. But I've never play, until just recently. At any rate, I wanted to play the Flint scenario, since it's somewhat close. The first time I played, I was in about 7 years; industry, commercial, and residential was picking up and I was adding some dough to the treasury. I guess I thought I had lost though, so I read up on a strategy guide Setting Industrial tax to 0% and won in about three years. I left the game on the budget window, thinking it would stay like that. Boy, was I wrong. Essentially, 82% of the city was somehow reduced to rubble. I'm guessing a gang war broke out so the other side did ok? It seems like I still managed to generate a nice chunk of cash, so I guess I'll keep playing... On a slightly unrelated note, does anyone know if the water distribution simulation is bugged? I can have a surplus of water capacity, yet some parts of the city connected to the water main don't get water. -
Looking for some lost and forgotten SimCity 2000 Cities
RichNagel posted a topic in City-Building Games
Hi folks, first post here in the forums I was redirected here from a poster over at VOGONS who suggested that I post this question here. Anyhow, eons ago, one of the first things that I bought for SimCity 2000 was the strategy book "SimCity 2000: Power, Politics, and Planning" (by Nick Dargahi, published by Prima Publishing). Mentioned in that book were six "spotlight" cities, and the book even had real pretty glossy full-color pics of the cities in the middle section of the book. The author of the book even had extensive interviews in the book of the city's creators Throughout the years I had made several attempts to find download links for the cities mentioned in the book. Three of them that I was able to dig up were: Calebopolis - by Caleb John Clark MaxiANC - by James Alton Rubigger - by James Moore (Jerry Moore) Three of the cities that I was never able to find ANYWHERE were: Harsh - by Ocean Quigley Mattropolis - by Matt Kim Tari's Kingdom - by Tari Kobylanski Quite a few years ago I even went as far as to email the author of the book (Nick Dargahi) asking him about these cities that he detailed in his book. He replied saying that he USED to have them on his hard drive quite a while before, but they were long-since gone Anyhow, I don't suppose that anyone here would have these cities, or know of a place to download them? I've extensively searched all around the Internet and the newsgroups for literally YEARS, but never have had ANY luck WHATSOEVER finding them (although, I've seen them mentioned here and there on occasion). -
So i don't see many pepl that play sim city 2000 but i just want to keep it alive , If anyone wants to play a good retro sim city and be able to play online. This is the page your looking for post your servers or IP's for your server let us know ! I may even start my own client for servers if i see this game starts to become alive , Have Fun! You can download the client here to download the game or host your server. SC2K Online http://sc2konline.webs.com/
