Oh I'm so giddy that someone made this thread! :neckbeard:

I've lost all my old regions to the mistress that is Format C:, but I have nothing to do this weekend. With that said, RIP weekend, Sim City 4 calls to me.

Which is to say you should probably organize any plugins you download in some way that makes sense to you in case you need to update/troubleshoot/remove some particular thing at some point.

Is there still active development on the mods? Maybe I'm just ignorant of the scene, but I'm under the impression the development more or less ceased around 2010.

My biggest problem with this game is making a city interesting.

Infrastructure is significantly more expensive to keep up in this game than previous games, so it's both tempting and easy to start building massive grids of zoned area and watch cash roll in, but then you end up with a really boring city that is just effective at making money. Creating something interesting while still finding yourself in the black is a real challenge.

Also, this is a tall order, because I couldn't imagine the horsepower needed to run the sim, but is there a mod that allows you to play an entire region as one city?
