Sim City 4 Subway Cars

[afrank218]

Would anyone be willing to make TRS 04/06 models of the subway cars from the game Sim City 4?
I have some pictures but no dimensions because these are fictional models.

If anyone does make these models it would be cool if they were passenger enabled and had animated doors.
I would make them myself but when it comes to gmax I am terrible!
Thank you very much!

Have you checked the DLS? There are plenty of subway models there that are similar. The Path subway cars in particular look kind of like these particularly in the front.

Yes I have seen the PATH K cars and they are very good but I like the SC4 cars and how they are short and compact.

Get a 3D modeller such as G-Max which is free, and learn how to make some. I've used the program before, it's not a quick and easy learning path, but it's very do-able with time an patience. Like any project, this would require good planning and a lot of time to devote to it to make the project come out satisfactorily.

Do you know where I can find the Gmax program, the truth is i am not very good at it because i had it for about a week until my computer crashed. Thanks for the tip by the way.

Try www.turbosquid.com I think they have the download for it. Don't worry about being good or bad. It takes time and a lot of practice to become "good" at something.

You're welcome and good luck,

John

subway help

how do build and operate subways in sc4?

Why on earth would you ask for info like that here?

In SC4 building a subway is really easy. The entire game is in a grid layout and you just place your stations where you want within a city and connect them with tracks. In the Rush Hour Expansion you also get elevated lines that you can connect with your subway system to make an entire rapid transit network. Subway does not take up much room but it is very expensive. Elevated lines are cheaper but they take up more space.

As far as driving the train you just simply control the speed of the train. Sadly you cannot drive on the underground portions.

If you've seen what he posts elsewhere, you'll not be surprised by that sort of thing
