I cant grow bigger lots of commercial services CS$. All i get are some small shops each of them with 150 workers or so.
Ive downloaded some lots from the exchange, but cant grow them.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Take a look at your demand in the Census Repository report, usually CS$$ or CS$$$ will grow instead of CS$ if the demand for those are in place, no matter how high it is for CS$.

All of my commercial demands are pretty high, being CS$ the highest of them all, over 24000 which is the graphs maximun. So no way of satisfying that demand ?

Maybe try to make the area "less attractive" ;) . As you have got all the CS demands high, the game chooses more accurate wealth level. I suppose you create the commercial areas of exact size, of course?

Just made a new city only consisting of CS$, all other comercial taxes maxed out at 20%. Still only getting those small buildings.

Do you zone high density?
A Census Repository Report of this city might help as well.

Yep, high density, fire station, police station, parks, everything. Here is the picture you requested.

CS in general is mostly low-rise.
Even in a large region, CS is still mostly low-rise.
High-rises are quite rare, mainly in the form of warehouses and hotels.

With a regional commercial capacity of 1,016,618 in CAM 1.0,
72% of your CS§ would still be growing as stage 8 or lower.

In order to show how this is changing from CAM 1.0 to CAM 2.0,
here's a comparison for CS§ at a regional commercial capacity of 1,000,000:

	Rush Hour	CAM 1.0	CAM 2.0	CAM 2.0	CAM 2.0	CAM 2.0
			Rural	Midrise	Standard	Skyscraper

Note also that the beta version of CAM 2.0 that you're running has a somewhat different distribution:

	CAM 2.0	CAM 2.0
	Standard	Standard
	1.2.1	1.2.5
Stage  1:	10.7%	8.7%
Stage  2:	9.3%	8.9%
Stage  3:	8.8%	8.5%
Stage  4:	8.3%	8.0%
Stage  5:	8.0%	7.6%
Stage  6:	7.6%	7.3%
Stage  7:	7.2%	6.9%
Stage  8:	6.8%	6.6%
Stage  9:	6.5%	6.2%
Stage 10:	6.2%	5.9%
Stage 11:	5.9%	5.6%
Stage 12:	5.6%	5.3%
Stage 13:	5.2%	5.1%
Stage 14:	3.0%	4.8%

I'll have beta version 1.2.5 ready for you later tonight. ;)
