When I was testing something with #SimCity 2000's traffic routing I was thinking: "I wish there was a OpenTTD or OpenRCT2 of SimCity 2000"

There is actually a project that has started the work!

Current releases have focused on patching SimCity 2000 SE to run on modern (Windows) systems, and adding a modding API, but the first parts of the game have been reverse engineered and reimplemented in C++. Very cool!

Mal ne allgemeine Anfrage an die Retro-Gemeinde: Hat von euch zufällig noch jemand eine deutschsprachige Diskettenversion des SimCity 2000 Urban Renewal Kits für DOS rumliegen und könnte mir davon ein Image zukommen lassen? Also keine CD-Version oder eine Compilation und auch keine Windows-Version, sondern die wirkliche SCURK Diskette?

Wäre euch sehr dankbar! 😃

P.S. Die Diskette müsste in etwa so ausgesehen haben. Hab ein Bild angehängt.

Here's the original, unaltered U.S. floppy disk version of SimCity Classic for DOS. With file dates from August of 1993, this is the very first revision. Sorry for the delay, but I imported these from the USA. For the retro collectors!

Why SimCity Died

Praticamente si tratta del concetto contrario di #SimCity, dove gli sviluppatori si sono accorti che, se avessero simulato i parcheggi in modo realistico, il videogioco sarebbe risultato noiosissimo.

Dall'intervista:

Penso che la più grande [sorpresa] sia stata il parcheggio. Quando ho iniziato a misurare il nostro negozio di alimentari locale, che non penso sia così grande, sono rimasto sbalordito da quanto più spazio c'era per il parcheggio piuttosto che per il negozio vero e proprio. Questo era un po' un problema, perché in origine volevamo modellare le città reali, ma ci siamo subito resi conto che c'erano troppi parcheggi nel mondo reale e che il nostro gioco sarebbe stato davvero noioso se fosse proporzionale in termini di parcheggi.
