I would've gone completely crazy about this 3D camera when I was a kid. I still am going crazy about it, not gonna lie

[@aMiyafuji]

Wow. Some of the angles really does make it look like Sims 2, which makes sense given how you can import terrain maps to use in the game as neighborhood bases. Technically really cool, even if it acts all weird. The top down is probably one of the cooler parts of it. It looks very google maps like, and still very functional.

I’m pretty sure Sims 2 and SimCity 4 both use very similar engines so it makes sense.

I do like the addition of the 3d camera though it really makes some scenes look very cursed ^^
Also, I didn't remember that the colour-scheme of that game was that good looking - they did a very well job and the colour gives the whole scenery a somewhat uplifting - comic style look

This needs to be longer

Modders should start making 3d models that support this mod

[@andersonklein3587]

The shame is that all those buildings were rendered from 3D models, the models already existed when the game was made, and had a good deal of detail and higher rez textures. The buildings were not hand drawn like in SC3000 and older games. I wonder if those files still exist in a computer somewhere.

that's so cool for a game made in 2003!

[@andersonklein3587]

It's crazy to think that if computers were faster at the time, this but much higher rez and with the full lod models would have been how SC4 would have looked like. And with better pathfinding. Honestly, it'd be insane... I can only imagine they'd let you import your houses from The Sims as well as the Sims themselves, full graphics and all.
