![]() ![]() I am still having an issue where my Win taskbar remains after the game launches. Was unable to find the 640 build anywhere. I was able to change the cmd level prompt to launch SC4 with the correct screen resolution.Ĭ:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c START "high priority sc4 " /high "C:\Program Files (x86)\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe\Apps\SimCity 4.exe" -w -intro:off -d:DirectX -intro:off -CPUCount:1 -CustomResolution:enabled -r1786x992x32 I had this same problem on my Win 7 64 bit upgrade. Also launch your sc4 using this command "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe\Apps\SimCity 4.exe" -d:DirectX -intro:off -CPUCount:1 -CustomResolution:enabled -r1920x1080x32 ~ where your Sc4 was installed location is. I suggested you to install DX9 as well maybe DX11 installed does not recognize by SC4 engine i think. ![]() I was really excited about playing Rush Hour for the first time after 8 years of playing the vanilla version. Page File: 2955MB used, 21600MB available ![]() Processor: Intel® Core™ i7 CPU 920 2.67GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.7GHz I have tried installing the patch, I have tried starting as an administrator, I've tried running in compatibility mode, I've set all my graphics card options to factory defaults. When I go to start the game again, I get the "Simcity 4 will run with the software driver." message every time I try to start the game from then on. I can't get this box to go away without doing Ctrl+Alt+Del, but when I do that, another error box pops up that reads "SimCity 4 will run with the software driver when next launched." If I click okay on this box, it goes away and nothing happens. The FIRST time this happens after changing the graphics options, a small dialog box that says "Hardware Driver Error" in the headline and "Could not initialize graphics card." in the message shows up on the Windows desktop. Then the screen goes black for about 1 second and then returns immediately to the desktop. I close the game, go to start the game through the Programs menu, and the splash screen (the bridge) shows like everything is going fine. After that, the game prompts me to restart in order to have my changes take effect. I set the graphics to 32-bit color, the highest resolution available, and everything else to high. It looks terrible on my 1920x1080 HD monitor, so naturally the first thing I want to do is fix up the graphic options. After install, the game automatically starts up and goes to the region map. Here's the issue: The game installs successfully (I've tried multiple times). It works fine on my laptop, so I know that there is not a problem with the discs. How did I miss it? I have a lot of catching up/reading to do.Īnyways, I purchased the SimCity Box yesterday to upgrade from my vanilla version of SimCity 4, and unfortunately, I can't get SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition to work on my desktop. I just found this gem of a website after being a major SimCity fan for over 10 years. ![]()
