Zaodai posted:I've got Sim City 4 on Steam (despite not remembering buying it), and I read the section with command line parameters to get it running on a multicore system. Does this play nice with Windows 7 (and 64 bit systems in particular)? I can't explain it but I've had zero problems with SC4 since upgrading to Windows 7. Windows XP, on the other hand, started giving it poo poo after I got a new video card. Same card, Windows 7, problems vanish.

So just how bad of a debacle was SimCity 5, anyway? I never bought it after hearing about the always on DRM and multiplayer only crap. I read a little of the thread but it's just too much of a behemoth to sit and read all of.

Squiggle posted:Edit: and while I'm whining, is there a way to turn off Rush Hour car icosn that I am no doubt blindly missing? It's in the MySim/uDriveIt screen. There's a little button that you can toggle off. It turns off those icons. Why they're on by default is a mystery to me.

Gorelab posted:Is there any way to get poor people out of $$$ wealth buildings? Also what's the best way to get demand for the rich and middle class up? I don't really have a lot of low value area so I have a lot of zones without much growth even though I have crazy demand for $ wealth people. Check traffic noise. Rich people loving hate living on noisy streets. Don't expect rich folks to live near a major artery. This is also where city planning comes into play, as you need to ensure that a lot of people aren't driving past rich people buildings. If the road they live on is noisy they won't live there no matter how many services the locale has.

Nition posted:Does anyone here actually use Rush Hour's silly U-Drive-It feature? There's a landing strip mission where you fart out clouds over some squares that say VU that gives you $75,000. Your mayor rating goes down a bit in the area for some time afterwards but other than that it's basically stupidly easy money. I farted around with some other stuff but most of U-Drive-It was actually pretty stupid.
