FP SimCity 4 Collab v.3 Now with 100% less Dropbox! - Games

If anyone wants to establish a connection with New New New Newtopia feel free.

[QUOTE=HendoV2;39481413]what is that an air force base down in the corner? is that a plugin in the dropbox or what? i want it in my city :v:[/quote] That's the Area 51 reward.

This is a bit whack. My city of a modest 9,109 inhabitants just has a hi-rise tenement under construction, which will house over a tenth of the entire population in a 4x3 block. Geez.

Wait. When did all the ocean city slots turn into ground?

BabyMaker is still there right?

Yeah all slots with cities and custom terraforming is there, but all the ocean slots who hasn't been touched is now just flat ground.

[QUOTE=Jackald;39480650]Feel free to build shit next to Tatsumi Port Island, guys, I REALLY need the trade links right now.[/QUOTE] You don't need trade routes. Can you also please move your island as you will corrupt my entire empire if you play at the same time as me.

So there's nobody in here, capable of writings mods for this game???

Ok, so I now have dropbox and the other program installed. I want to play! I'm pretty excited to see what changes to the game these mods will make since I've only played vanilla the whole time. Also, am I the only one who always puts graveyards next to landfills and power plants in hopes of zombies?

The legion of crab people has begun!

Ok guys, I'm going to do something big, so it might not be a good idea to touch the region for a minute. If something bad happens, don't panic. I got this.

Well, I think I just finished configuring this whole deal, I'm ready and waiting to claim some land and get to building. I'll be honest, I'm not quite sure how I'm supposed to perform backups.

The deed is done. The region is now 128x128. I must warn you that the NE corner of the map has a strange camera bug. Build there at your own risk! [editline]5th February 2013[/editline] Also, due to memory constraints, there might be a time in the future that we might need to put the plugins into the Google Drive folder instead of the Dropbox to free up space for the region. Not for a while, unless we get more mods. Speaking of this, no more concrete wall mods, please. I think 5 or 6 is enough at this point :v:

I'll give that a shot when i have jack shit to do in the weekends. Thanks.

Also there's quite a few people in the Steam group chat, so feel free to join in whenever, especially if you're playing.

Gee guys, you're filling up my dropbox folder. I haven't even had much time to play :(

Why do I crash everytime I exit from my city into the region?

I really don't like the lack of train embankments. It may be perfectly logical to have rail crossings in small communities and the countryside, but having them in them in the middle of the city centre? Asking for trouble

[QUOTE=NMDanny;39485923]Why do I crash everytime I exit from my city into the region?[/QUOTE] I think it might be an issue with a combination of region size and the number of cities, but I don't know for sure. Everyone seems to do it at least every once in a while. It doesn't appear to affect saving, so it shouldn't be an incredibly huge issue, I hope. Also thinking of making a new continent for the SE corner of the map, how does [url=http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/28381-lebanon-tripoli-the-qadisha-valley/]this[/url] look? [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/tick.png[/img] for yes, [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/cross.png[/img] for no (if no, please suggest what I should put there instead, if anything).

Asking for trouble[/QUOTE] Check out the ground lifters/sinkers and concrete embankment walls in the mass transit menu, you can use them in conjunction with the extra Rail puzzle pieces to create bridges over roads/other railways, rather than building level crossings all the time. Time consuming, but looks awesome.

[QUOTE=NMDanny;39485923]Why do I crash everytime I exit from my city into the region?[/QUOTE] I did this when my city got really big. I think it might be a memory thing having to do with such a giant region, combined with your city being quite large.

Stupid [QUOTE][IMG]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/1119411831381376250/F4F4EA5D14E04F2FE445D5847850F8632ABD187C/[/IMG][/QUOTE]

My game keeps crashing to desktop :\ It's usually when I'm saving. Also I've [B]occupied[/B] the [B]South Western corner[/B].

I crash every time I save, I think you just have to get used to it.

Yep, I'm getting crashing when exiting to Region too. But so long as stuff saves properly, I can live with it.

I just took the forested area of my city and turned it into an industrial park! Because fuck my environmental rating, that shit's always fucked from the get-go.
