A fix for SimCity 4 resolution problems on launch
Authored by: Anonymous on Oct 29, '03 07:50:18PM

Hey thanks a lot! This allowed me to run Simcity on my 800mhz iBook. I just dragged a copy of the preserence file to the textedit icon in my dock. My full screen mode was already a one. So all I had to change was changing the window mode to a zero.

<key>window-mode</key>
<string>1</string>

And changed the 1 to a 0.

I tried the "Option" key while starting SimCity but I never got any options to change. The only problem is that the cursor looks like a green box that has an outline of the actual curson in the middle.

I had called the company about the screen for SimCity blanking out when it started. They said it would not run on my computer and that I was out of luck. They said it was because of my built in video card. You would think that the company would know about their software and its capabilities. I was bummed out because I bought it for my wife for her birthday and she was never able to play it. Anyway thanks for the fix! It works great!
