Sim City 4

[devildogelite]

Maybe, but in cities XL I had about 6 avenues linking my residential to my industrial, and the little simdiots only used one.

That happens in sim city 4 too. I'm really pumped for sim city though. That game looks like its gonna be amazing. I hope it fixes many of the issues with sim city 4 and irons out the problems many city building games have.

Code: [Select]

-CustomResolution:enabled -f -r###x###x32replace the # symbols with your desired resolution, i.e. 1920x1080.

i actually find that playing in widescreen is so much better.  so much more to view <3

Have my babies.

no problem, lol.  here's some more useful ones I use:

Code: [Select]

-intro:offturns off the intro movie, goes straight to the splash screen and then the region screen

Code: [Select]

-wsets to windowed mode, set it to windowed + a small resolution for easy alt tabbing

Code: [Select]

-CPUCount:#set it to 2, it's the most it'll use anyway.  has been said to give some improvement in performance.

Still doesnt work.
This is what i set it to
"D:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe\Apps\SimCity 4.exe" -intro:off -CustomResolution:enabled -f -r1360x786x32

Oh my god, a SC4 topic, yes. Just. loving. Yes.
This game is my entire childhood, I played it since I was 5 when I got the deluxe edition, Jesus Christ I could never to get to the actual city stage though because of RCI problems, and areas getting abandoned. Other than that, I pretty much cheat my money up most of the time at the start using either weaknesspays or the cousin vinnie mod on simtropolis to get myself started, and to some questions in this topic, yes, Maxis is just calling the new Simcity "SimCity", saying it's a reboot. I also like the way they're going with it, just the size of the land you can build in erks me, but then again, it does say "Not Final Software", and I've watched the strategy video atleast 5 times already
but on-topic, yay simcity.
I always end up completely loving up with taxes to get money, which is what caused me to go into cheating

i have learned that problems will greatly start if you attempt to upgrade low to med, med to low, low to high. any combo.

because certain wealth levels dont evolve very quickly, and some dont like to change the density they are in.
you need poor and rich areas for each of low, med, and high density.

otherwise you can cause stuffloads of abandoned buildings.

the solution is actually easy. never replace zoning lol. especially once they have been there for long while and everything is balanced out.
just start a new zoning in another location instead.
