I guess the bottom line is NAM takes out stupid humans and gives them GPS so they know good routes.
So NAM makes sims drive for more than 1 street? I'm in.
It actually makes traffic routes. The original is so broken regarding traffic it's amazing. I mean even with NAM buses and subways are broken but at least ONE thing works somewhat.
IS it added to the dropbox?
[QUOTE=Fhenexx;39517149]Do any of you guys know of any RCI modifers? I reckon if somebody cheated to completely change commercial demand on a p. much global scale, we can find a way to turn it back to normal, although there's a good chance it might screw things up even more. Still, it's better than doing nothing about it. That said, a lot of people just cannot stand all the plugins that have been installed, so I'm going to start now and remove some of them. Currently on the chopping block are: EBLT (just has one new house lot, it's not even that much) LBT (tropical flora, but I don't think anyone ever used it so bye-bye) [u]either[/u] JRJ Concrete Walls [i]or[/i] Sunken Highway Walls PREGPROD Alley Kit GeoThermal Power Plant (let's be reasonable, this was basically a cheat mod to begin with) Electronic Toll Booth (half because I have no idea what this is) SimCity 4 Extra Cheats Tonkosmallstationthingy (no idea what this even is) If there are no objections to this by the time I get back home today, then these mods are going to go. Then, I'm going to enact some more rules and such. And if you messed with the demand charts and you do not confess and I find out about it, you're going to get banned from the collab indefinitely. No exceptions. No warnings.[/QUOTE] I added JRJ Concrete walls because they're more versatile than the Highway sunken walls, they really don't clutter up the menu you only need to scroll once and you're past them. I also installed the 'Tonksosmallstationthingy', it's a Railway station that sits on the tracks to take up less space than regular stations, but if you want to chop it, chop it, just means I'll need to remodel a part of one of my cities. I don't have a problem with removing the cheats plugin or the tropical flora. Some of my cities use the Geothermal Plant and Alley kit but I could live with them being removed. I personally won't be adding or requesting any more mods, all I need is NAM, something to make building bridges and sunken networks easier, and some walls to place along sunken networks.
[QUOTE=Swebonny;39516370]I am suspecting the file, "SimCity 4 Extra Cheats Plugin(NO RCI)", since it was added yesterday, which seems to be when the problem occurred. However it doesn't seem to have RCI cheats. [url]http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21118-simcity-4-extra-cheats-plugin/[/url] But it feels like it can't be a coincidence. [editline]8th February 2013[/editline] It's the only thing that we all share. I mean, if one individual plays around with his RCI, even that shouldn't change the RCI of everyone right? Like, my city isn't even connected to anyone else. Why are my demands being changed.[/QUOTE] I've read that the whole region has its own RCI that is affected by all the cities. Someone could have build a mega-demand city or cheated their demand, which would affect the regional RCI. I'm not entirely sure how it works, especially with such a big collab. I've only done like 5 city collabs before. [QUOTE]Do any of you guys know of any RCI modifers?

The walls look pretty and the alleyways are just pretty looking street sections.
Whatever makes those canals should stay. Those are beautiful. Also on the OP I dont think it mentioned this: On region it looks like a plain but loads and plays fine.

Im using NAM and the cars are using the wrong side of the road, i.e. turning lanes are being turned into not outof
[QUOTE=Lethaxx;39523015]Im using NAM and the cars are using the wrong side of the road, i.e. turning lanes are being turned into not outof[/QUOTE] If you mean visual depictions of cars driving that's still just completely random and nonsense. It's the data view you're supposed to be interested in. If that doesn't work then the plugin needs to be looked into.
I really liked the electronic toll booth. Shame. But there are electronic ones IRL: E-Z pass. EBLT and LBT should be deleted. Also I reccomend some plugins: [URL="http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21327-bridge-height-mod/"]Bridge Height Mod[/URL] (Not a cheat) [URL="http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21288-additional-god-mode-terrain-tools/"]Additional Godmode Tools[/URL] [URL="http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21342-opera-house-fix/"]Opera House Fix[/URL] [URL="http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/23089-simfox-day-and-nite-modd/"]SimFox Day N Night[/URL]
I don't know enough about the plugins to really have much of a vote but I would enjoy a minimalistic approach. The geo plant and roundaouts are the only thing I wound up using so far, these tool booths do what, cause less congestion from stopping? That might be nice, but the menu was way congested when I played, finding the basics was a bit tedious.
So do I have to nuke my cities or what?
Have any of the mods been deleted yet? I haven't been on in a few days.
No, not yet, but I'm going to do it pretty much right now, so get your shit ready. If your city corrupts, tell me. [editline]9th February 2013[/editline] Is there still a problem with demand? I haven't heard anything about that in a while. [editline]9th February 2013[/editline] Oh, looks like someone already deleted the plugins. Never mind then.
So does this mean we will still be using plugin mods?
The commercial sector in Aralakh has exploded for some reason.
I've killed off my city and will begin anew tomorrow. Hopefully the RCI is nicer to me.
I don't know if this is because I have a neighbour now, but my RCI is all fucked up now. Only demand for R$ and CS$$$ and CO$$, but I have full demand for all industrial. The rest are all negative demand, with R$$ being at full negative.

Did you remove the two bridges?
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;39543360]Sorry, put some crap together to keep that highway funded and such but apparently only rich people live there. Did you remove the two bridges?[/QUOTE] No, they looked removed in the region view when I went and played earlier, I didn't touch your city there.
Is anyone else having a bug where the game crashes when you go to save?

I request milke the guy that owns portsburg and other towns self destruct his land or my north Korean forces will invade, this is due to the fact he is cheating and is the one fucking with rci.
I remember cheating once in SC3KU and I made a city with a shitload of casinos and malls and all those money making buildings, and holy shit the amount of garbage that was produced was insane, half my city had to be landfill for about 100 casinos and malls.

Shit, being added to the dropbox group made me lose all my space for other stuff :( Oh well, sacrifices have to be made. Thanks for adding me also.

I needed about 1200 incinerators.
