Is that regarding the farms? Didn't Simcity 4 have four industrial zones - 1 for farms and then one each for low/medium/high density?

You never had a specific option to zone farms. Low density industrial zones could potentially develop into farms depending on pollution, size, location and whatnot. But they could just as well develop into smaller factories.

Why would you need to add MP3's as background music ? just disable in game music and play music in the bacground.

could create game issues...some games would crash if I did that... or have codec issues...

hell yeah...and for Generals 2 also

with the holiday season coming up I wouldn't expect them til next year, but we'll see.

i think they cancelled c&c generals 2 a few weeks ago, they will be released a free online c&c game instead of something.

In my MANY MANY years of gaming, that has NEVER happened. and codec issues ? what....

Codec issues happened with XP more often, but it still can happen with third party codec packs installed I think. Haven't heard of it though, MS protected their default codecs better past that iirc.

The retail product was cancelled and it was renamed, but I believe it will still have Generals 2s content.

Also, it shouldn't. I do it 90% of the games I play. (Well, multiplayer games at least.)

The graphics do look awesome, but they keep making the game so complex it seems.

Complex? This new one actually simplifies alot of things. No longer do you have to care about laying water pipes and power lines. The water, power and sewage all now flow along the path of the roads, as they do in real life. So as long as your water towers and power plants are connected by road, they get water and power. It's a fairly simply solution.

Nope just 3. low density is what farms are...

no there is 4 industrial in SC4 at least, and they were not ranked by density, but wealth... low wealth would turn to farm land, they where IR, ID, IM, and IHT zoneing

IR- low weath near residential aka farm land

ID - medium wealth dirty aka manufacturing aka chemicals and coal

ID - Medium wealth clean aka product mfg (Cars, etc)

IHT - High wealth tech industry.. needs high education and wealth in the region

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
