Switching from game window messes up the sizes of other windows
FanatykMC posted a topic in SimCity (2013) Technical Help Q&A
Hi. When going from game window (fullscreen, 1080p) to any other window it loses it's original size. Changing from 1080p to 4K fixes the issue but the UI becomes too small. The issue happens both from alt-tabing and windows key. Windows 10 20H2, system res is 4K, DPI default, GTX 1080ti. -
First of all, unsure whether or not this is specifically a MAC issue, so I posted here to be safe. I'm playing SC4 Rush hour purchased from MacGame Store through a 2011 Macbook running High Sierra. I'm having a problem with the query windows appearing all over through screen. I wouldn't really mind this at all but the majority of the placement happens to make it so the historical toggle, or the close window option, or both, are hidden below the screen, making me unable to retain a building. I will now post some examples: Now this problem does not happen with all lots. It's pretty random but I'm able to have about have the windows fully functional. Does anyone have any tips? I have a hunch it may have something to do with my screen size? It's only 11 inches.

Return of the 3 More Questions, Son of..., Revenge of the..., 3 More Questions III...
SIM-ple Jack posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
#1. I bought SC4 on disc but it never worked on my PC, so I ended up downloading it on GOG. I can't seem to get it out of window mode. Is there a hidden button somewhere? #2. Can you rename lots. Not the in-game title bar, I know about that, but rename the file itself. Instead of, say Almiral Pulp Factory, just Pulp Factory. I'm not trying to take away any of the creator's credit, just make it easier to find in Lotplop. I know you can change it in LotEditor, along with some of those wordy descriptions, and I have renamed a few files, seemingly with no malfunctions. But it would be nice to have an alphabetized in-game menu. #3. I've downloaded just about all the W2W lots on this site, and they work fine at first, but as I add more, they disappear. I find them in Lot or BuildingPlop, but when I go to use them, they crash the game. (initially, they worked fine) Is this a file or dependency conflict? Too many files in plug-ins? Something the creator screwed up? Something else? #4. Is there a Q&A thread here? I looked but couldn't find it. (I know, 4 questions ) -
Setting up for the game to run in Window or Fullscreen Mode
luvs2draw posted a topic in SC4 Bugs & Technical Issues
Hello everyone, I need a little help getting the Game to run in Window or Fullscreen Mode. First I am running Windows 10 64 bit on an HP Pavilion Notebook Laptop. Graphics card is AMD Radeon R 6 ( there is no way to change settings to select to turn on Fullscreen in the Graphics). The game is opening with the 2 black strips on the Right and Left side of the screen. I had the game install in the C (systems drive) instead of Program Files (86). I have added to the target the -w and -f and also tried -r - CoustomResolution:enable -1600x900x32 while the game was installed on the C drive (was installed after the -CPUCount:1 entry was there from the install) removed the -f and entered -w, and there was no change in the way the game starts. I thought it might be because the game installed in the C drive, might be the problem, so I removed my Plugins and Region folders and deleted the game and installed it to the C:/Program Files (86). I changed the target from the -f to -w, there was no change in how the game loads, it loaded with the 2 strips on both sides of the screen. The only time the game will show up in the Window mode is when I close the game ( it shows up in a Window screen then closes). Is there any way to get the game to start in the Window or Fullscreen Mode? . -
In both SC4K and SC3KU. When I am dragging anything, be it a road, railroad, power lines, water lines and so on. When I get near the edge with ever I am dragging. The map moves and I have run away (uncontrolled) drag running all over the map laying what I am dragging. How do I stop this run away dragging when I get near the edge? Steve

Issue With Building's Window Reflection
Upset Groceries posted a topic in Cities: Skylines Modding - Open Discussion
Hey guys! I'm coming to you with a problem regarding an asset I'm making. For some reason, the generic "city-reflection" that you can see if you look into a window, isn't paralel to my building's level but is instead sunken down as if I'm hovering above it therefore I can't see said reflection at all, unless I'm completely close to the building, looking downwards into the window. Any help is appreciated! -
Hi, I know the parameters are -d:DirectX/OpenGL/Software but when I add OpenGL instead of DirectX I got a tiny windowed version of the game. Definitely impossible to play. Any way to correctly switch to OpenGL? When starting it also says GDriverWindow -- Software or something like that.
