All Platforms - Tricks
----------------------
The following tricks will work with all known versions of SimCity 4. To ensure that these 
tricks work correctly, make sure that you follow each step exactly as it is written. 
SimPage.net does not provide support on any tricks listed here.
Return to God Mode After you enter the Mayor Mode and name yourself and your city, the game 
will no longer allow you access to the extensive terrain editing tools that are available in 
God Mode, unless you first select to obliterate your city. It doesn't have to be this way. 

To get back into God Mode without blowing everything up, simply hold down CTRL, SHIFT, and
ALT. Then click on the God Mode button in the interface.

Warning! Use caution when applying God mode tools on your existing city. Some of these tools, 
such as Smooth Terrain will instantly obliterate your city just by clicking the button. Those 
that don't cause instantaneous changes may also still damage the city severely, as there is 
far less consideration in this mode for the preservation of the surrounding structures.
Animation Recorder Have you ever wanted to show off your city in a cool video file? Now you 
can, using the built in "recorder" feature in SimCity 4: 
Open the cheat box by pressing CTRL+X and enter the code "recorder" Upon entering the code,
the following applet will appear: 
Simply enter the Name you would like to call the animation, the Rate in milliseconds between 
frames, the Time in seconds to record for, and select which type of Output format, you want 
to use. Click the Start button to begin recording. While recording feel free to move around 
your city, or even build things. Anything that happens inside the box will be recorded.
After recording finishes, the recorder will ask if you want to save the images. If you select
Yes, it will place them in My DocumentsSimCity 4RecordedAnimations under the name 
animation_name ###_###, where ###_### identifies the order of the images in the sequence.
Click the Close button to close the recorder.
Use a program like Jasc Animation Shop to create a .AVI file from the images.
You can change the area of the screen that is to be recorded, by dragging around the outline
box that appears on the screen while the recorder is open. You can also drag the edges of 
the box to change the size of the recording space.

on "God Options" And you will have them all.

Do [Ctrl] + x to get the cheat screen, then type in "riskymoney" then press "Enter". Every 
time you type this in it will give you 10,000 simoleons. Be careful when you press enter, 
there will be an earthquake, so do this cheat before you actually start the city.


Don't have a heart: Raise taxes:
--------------------------------
Taxes can be a helpful tool in a lot of ways. You can lower them to attract a certain type
of development, or raise them to do the opposite, and you get the reward in reaping in the
benefits. At the start of many of my cities, I raise all my taxes to 8%. This usually gives
me enough revenue in a couple years for a full educational system and fire/police protection.
And sims don't usually complain at 8 or even 9 percent. As long as they feel they're getting 
what they paid for.


Save water systems for later:
-----------------------------
Since water systems cost a lots to build and maintain, don't use them at the beginning. Sims
can live without water, since they can have their own wells (although high wealth sims will 
not live or work without city water). If you start a water system, start in the industrial 
areas, where they're needed most.


Helpful tip:
------------
Your first goal is to generate profit (duh). After naming your city and mayor, First, activate
the Legalized Gambling ordinance. You'll get an extra $100/month. The catch is that there is 
a 20% corresponding increase in crime, but since your city is small, don't worry about it.

Second, raise all taxes to 7.5-8.0%. You may want to lower them later, but people will flock
to your quaint little town even with the raised tax.


Quick money:
------------
Use the following trick to quickly accumulate money.

1. Press [Ctrl] + X 
2. type weaknesspays 
3. Hold [Left Shift] 
4. Press [Enter] 
5. Press [Cursor Up] 
6. Press [Enter] 
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6; you will get $1000 each time. 


Money from Neighbor Deals:
--------------------------
When you make a city, connect it to at least two cities; one with water or some other
major resource and another that needs it (water works best). Do not have that resource
in your city or the glitch will not work (for example, water pump, power plant, etc.).
Make the connection to these two cities using your city and go to "Neighbor Deals". 
Under the deals, select the resource to buy, then the other city to sell to. Then, cancel
the buy, but not the sale. Follow this exactly. Select the pull down menu and reselect 
the resource you are selling to the other city. If done correctly, the dollar amount 
should significantly increase. You can now reselect the resource to buy. After a few
months, the game will reset the dollar amount but you can do glitch again. When using 
water, it is possible to get all the way to 1,000,000,000 Simoleons. 
Note: If you play the other cities, make sure you check on the Neighbor Deals. 
You do not want to bankrupt the cities.

How to create a super high mega huge population city:
-----------------------------------------------------
Submitted by: Sim Pa ti Pe De Ci Ty
Email: elyon.ocha@yahoo.com

Pick a large sized terrain. First, only create medium density res and ind. 
Then add utilities and civic buildings. Wait for the city to reach 10000 and zone more res. 
Try to zone some com. Then delete some ind. Wait until the city reaches 30000, then you'll 
get residential skycapers. Replace 75-80% of the industrial to commercial. When he city 
reaches 45000 commercial jobs, you'll have commercial skycapers. Now, replace all industrial
with commercial. Add more residential and commercial zones. Once you reached 100k population,
your city is filled with skycapers. Lower all taxes to 5-6%. The city will raise its population
until 500k or oven 1m. Continue building your city and create and connect it to another city. 
Do the same as I explain before.


High population city:
---------------------
Select a large sized terrain. Start by only creating medium density residential and industrial
areas. Then add utilities and civic buildings. Wait for the city to reach 10,000 in population
and zone more resesidential areas. Try to zone some commercial areas then delete some industrial
areas. Wait until the city reaches 30,000 in population to get residential skyscapers. Replace 
75% to 80% of the industrial areas to commercial. When the city reaches 45,000 commercial jobs,
you will have commercial skyscrapers. Replace all the industrial areas with commercial. Add 
more residential and commercial zones. Once you reach 100,000 in population, your city will 
be filled with skyscrapers. Lower all taxes to 5% to 6%. The city will increase in population
until 500,000 or over 1 million. Continue building your city and create and connect it to 
another city.


Save money:
-----------
Submitted by: helper

Look at your water pollutain table and when you plan to build more water stations put them 
outside the zone and then you will have clean water and you can even put in pipes as the 
pollutain does affect them so it saves money building a water treatment plant and no one 
will complain.


Saving money:
-------------
Building highways is a heavy hitter on your budget, and noisy as well. If you place two 
roads side by side and connect every segment with streets (roads have stoplights), then 
you should be able to get traffic moving just as fast as on highways, but much cheaper 
and quieter.
