The region of Metropizzalis is calling for new Mayors! This extra large region (Double default size) is just asking to be built upon.  All city slots are Large, to allow expansion.


(Pardon the typo it's supposed to say large map, not region.)

Easy Setup:
1. PM me with your Dropbox name and Skype name, so I can invite you.

2. Create a second SimCity 4 shortcut (If you use the launcher make sure the new shortcut is for the actual application. Otherwise it won't work.)

3. Add the following code to the target box in the shortcut's properties panel, after the existing link to the actual program: ( -UserDir:"C:\Users\{Your-Account-Name-Here}\Dropbox\SC4 Coop\Coop")

4. That's it!  There are also optional files you can download from the folder: "SC4 Optional (Stuff for Program Files)" It contains music from SimCity SNES, SimCity 2000, and SimCity 3000, to add to the atmosphere. (The SNES and 2000 music are redone versions of the songs.).  There is also the space background from the region view for use inside the cities.

Rules:
1. Do Not under any circumstances update the regions next to you while someone is playing in a directly neighboring region.  This includes: Making trade deals with a city currently in use (If you both want to make a trade deal, one of you must save and exit to region, before the other makes the trade deal.), Reconciling edges, next to a currently active city, etc.
This rule is to prevent Region Corruption, please Do Not Beak This Rule!

2. Keep in communication via Skype with all online players when online.  This will prevent people from accidentally breaking rule #1.

3. You may have multiple cities but don't be greedy, other players need cities too.

4. You may view another person's city, but not while they are working on it, and you cannot change anything or save to prevent griefing, accidental or otherwise. If you destroy someone else's city, you will be ousted from the server.

5.Do not add or remove mods or files from and to the shared dropbox folders. This includes creating a new region. They will be deleted! If you want a new server, we can vote on it.

Mods:
The following mods are in the server's plugins folder:
-Day n Nite Mod
-Meadowshire Terrain Mod+Dependancies
-A few custom buildings including Apple Store 5th Ave.
-Space Region Background
-NAM30 +RealHighway
-Tree Replacements
-Beach and Water Replacements

You may ask for new mods, and I'll consider them.

Have Fun!

why nam 30?

it would be a good idea to show up some pictures of developed cities (urban, rural and sububds) to see how it looks like, what plugs are in.

never the less, I may be interested.

I just haven't installed the new NAM yet.

There are no developed cities yet, however I do have a map of the region I just posted above.
