Hello to all. I am interested in selecting a tileset, and have seen references in the forums along this line: that there is a
"tileset switcher in SC4 where you can pic from four different tilesets (Chicago, New York, Houston and European-contemporary)"
I do not have the ability to select one. For me, it is "Build All Styles At Once"; I can select how often to change styles as well. Anyone else have this problem of not having individually-selectable styles? Am I missing some fundamental EA update file, like some SKU file or something?

if you click the little arrow in the upper right of this menu it will open the tileset selector box thing

thanks for the ultra-fast reply! I don't know how I missed the arrow. So, I selected Euro only. Does the "Change styles every X years" have no effect if I've only selected the one style? And I'm guessing that only new buildings will be affected by my new single-style selection? I'll start running the game, of course, but I'm curious as to how the setting will affect the city. Thanks again for the help!

Had a CTD (TE lot hover -- oops), but re-ran and it seems some buildings are euro, some I would not have guessed are classified as euro tileset. I'll look at the groups they belong to; probably many buildings are marked as being in multiple tilesets, come to think about it. Thanks again, and I'll see you online...
