Simcity 4 - Speed Building HD

[NucleariA]

I've done this before. I can guarantee there are neighboring cities heavily influencing the RCI demand and growth. This is impossible to do as a single city without modding.

[QuestionAll1]

Did you have hospitals, schools, and other utility buildings? didnt really see them

[Anno1404Venice]

@QuestionAll1 Yes I have, I downloaded new layouts for the hospital, police and firestatioons so they would fit better. The 2 blue buildings in the middle are the police station and the hospital. I've also placed some schools and universities around the city.

[Pwegoable]

there is no power plant or industry in here...

[Anno1404Venice]

@Pwegoable There is a powerplant, its the bleu thing surrounded by water towers. In the lfet corner of the city ^^

[JCdenton50]

@Pwegoable There doesnt have to be industry in a city, it can be in city next door.

[eridan13]

only 230k? i have aciti with more than 1 million of inhabitants

[marocon60]

@eridan13

I have a city with a population in excess of 2.65 Million inhabitants, but there was no way I could do that in 15 minutes. I doubt any comparability between the two feats.

I strongly encourage you to upload a video of your city though.

[xijnnijx]

dewd! my little guys never sprout big buildings like that. they're so fricking poor god i hate them little bastards !

[Lkenmaner]

@xijnnijx it helps to have commercial and residential demand maxed out by surrounding this city with other cities where industry has already been developed

[xijnnijx]

@Lkenmaner ahh, I see. thanks :)

[MatthewF1O1]

How do you build that city so pretty? -wow i sounded gay-  -.-

[XtraCash7]

@MatthewF1O1 Zoning high density commercial in the center of the city makes it look more realistic.

[Tuppoo94]

Good city but bullshit music.

[Anno1404Venice]

@Tuppoo94 Press mute and search music that you like, solved :)

[thelastpoint1]

@Anno1404Venice how do you build your city fast tell me

[Anno1404Venice]

@thelastpoint1 By subscribing to me :D Nah, I've got a tutorial where I explain the layout I used + the cities around this one pushed my demand.

[forYOUitsP]

it is kinda easy, you only need a well developed city next to it to keep the demands high

[Anno1404Venice]

@forYOUitsP Shht :D But the layout took a while too.

[STRIKEcorperation]

@Anno1404Venice Did you even touch the city after you pressed go, or did you have to recenter the camera after each snapshot?

[Anno1404Venice]

@STRIKEcorperation I didn't touch the city after I pressed go, the demand was insane.

[marocon60]

@Anno1404Venice

Looks like you got the ball rolling in that region. What are you planning to do with it?

[Anno1404Venice]

@marocon60 It's region I've been playing on for a few years but it isn't a 'set', the cities don't fit next to each other. I'm making a completly new map with the terraformer and I'm going for the 1 bill inhabitants :)

[marocon60]

@Anno1404Venice

Sounds a little ambitious.

Currently I am working on a supercity comprised entirely of low wealth residential buildings, civic buildings, and infrastructure. Using the Houston 1990 tileset, it should end up being about 10 million sims, using no mods, cheats or plugins.

It is taking forever, because I have to wait for decades in my other cities to drum up demand. I imagine it will take much longer using varied wealth and buildings and then doing it 100 times.

Good luck though.

[Anno1404Venice]

@marocon60 Maybe, but I'm not using a regular map size, this one is 8x18 big cities. So I can fit a lot of cities on that.

I couldn't play without mods anymore, they made this game so much more fun, why don't you use them?

[marocon60]

@Anno1404Venice

They can reduce the feeling of accomplishment from building things with low traffic or aesthetic greatness. I'm also not very computer-savvy, so I don't like to fool around with game files too much either.

Anyway, my 10 million city requires eight peripheral cities, so using that layout 160 million can fit into the region if it is completely flat.

With the CAM and NAM, and with pedmalls, much bigger cities are possible.

[SanderLeopard]

That, sir, is pretty darn impressive!

[Riegel2222]

cool!

[evisionx]

Hey anon im gona try n build a city again, but what should i build first R C OR I... thanks for any help

[rct3fan24]

What about Industrial?

[randyseck]

and making it MORE REALISTIC. But very Nice.

[Gustavo3451]

FUCK YEAH SPOR

[quicksliversbutt]

song? love your vids

[Anno1404Venice]

@quicksliversbutt Spor - Aztec, thx :)

[GamingforCupcakes]

i see boxes

[Anno1404Venice]

@GamingforCupcakes Ye, I removed some plugins and accedentelly removed this one too.

[eldaniel99007]

@Anno1404Venice Hi, what's the mod that you use for this vid?

[Anno1404Venice]

@eldaniel99007 Which mod? I have a lot plugins.

[sirmercutio99]

How do you get your cities big? I can never get past medium density. plus the building costs kill me.

[Anno1404Venice]

@sirmercutio99 Well, if I play for fun I use the money tree to provide me some cash.

[Redraptorxx]

@sirmercutio99 you are probably spending way too much money on stuff you dont need

[sirmercutio99]

@Redraptorxx only on roads, police, fire, schools and hospitals and if I don't they start to riot and my msg box gets full of requests from the advisors. The schools i usually use the private schools cause they're free. I wish there was a private hospital too, or medical center.

[sirmercutio99]

@sirmercutio99 I do build parks to increase land value as well. I try not to use too any buildings that cost much, and only when nessary.

[Redraptorxx]

@sirmercutio99 You dont need education from the start and also you can set your expendure on hospitals to the specific demand by clicking the question mark then clicking on the hospital, same thing for other buildings like schools.

[tonewipera]

No way to make a city from just a empty layout and you have that hight buildings.It take a lot of work to do to make people to com to your city and build bigger houses.Busstation basball stadion you get tham after some population limit so im sure you were using cheats And the final thing is,if we include water,garbage(dont se any facility for that),health,education,crime,e­lectricity there arent any buildings that make you profits.Im playing this game for a long time,i know what im talking about.

[Anno1404Venice]

@tonewipera Well, if you are such a pro in Simcity 4 you should know that cities that are connected to this one can push the demand. In this layout I've placed all needed public services to ensure I reach high wealth buildings.

No I don't cheat, I use mods.

[tonewipera]

@Anno1404Venice This we can discuss to details. But when i look to this, i think you arent profiting in this layout. If you say, that naighbours push the demand, if you mean water,electricity,garbage example, if you export garbage, you have to pay for it, if you export water or energy, you get money for it. Have to look at it, but i think the publick services eats a lot of money.

[bitesized16]

hey what's the name of song?

[Anno1404Venice]

@bitesized16 Spor - aztec

[bitesized16]

@Anno1404Venice thanks! I like your city design. do you still have problems with traffic?

[Anno1404Venice]

@bitesized16 No, problem solved, the city houses now over 2milion people.

[JamesLikesIcedCream]

Can u send me a link to were u can find those tree plops

[BeeFittyTwooz]

How did you get the money to make it?

[Anno1404Venice]

@BeeFittyTwooz There was I time when i played Simcity 4 without mods, building up a small town and making it larger and I've became pretty good at it but now it's to slow for me to build like that.

I use the money tree, it gives around 1.5 bilion $

[MRpopTARTSareYUMMY]

@Anno1404Venice Do you use any other mods?

[Anno1404Venice]

@MRpopTARTSareYUMMY I use a mod that increases the influence area of public services (police, firefighters, hospital, ...) and a waste to nothing producer.

[SuperSto420]

I used a city layout based on this one. It is now the best city I have ever built.

[Anno1404Venice]

@SuperSto420 These layouts are great, the traffic can get anywhere which makes the city easy to grow :)

[JuanMamaril]

The music on this suits the video so well :)

[AnarchisThinker]

You, sir, win two internets. One for playing such an old, yet kick ass game. One for posting picture by picture for each part. You can see the construction of a skyscraper as time goes by! :D

[Matesuchti]

Whats the perfect proportion of green, blue and yellow?

[Matesuchti]

How can it grow without economy?

[Anno1404Venice]

@Matesuchti I have 1mill plus cities around it

[4J25]

Just like in the other video im posting this: Whats the music? Nice city. i can never get skyscrapers.

[TheNickboy6]

coolest simcity4 video ive ever seen!

[satpam1000]

Hey man, haha... How did you do that? ._.

[Anno1404Venice]

@satpam1000 I'll show you in the upcoming tutorial :)

[satpam1000]

@Anno1404Venice I waiting for it :D

[satpam1000]

@Anno1404Venice Hey, em I forgot something that I wanted to ask, hehe... Em, how's about the layout / block? 4x4, 5x5, or you make it random?

[Anno1404Venice]

@satpam1000 Well, they aren't random, but the zoning is random, the squares I make are at least 7x7 because I add trees near the buildings, more trees mean that you will faster grow high resident lots instead of low - med residents.
