Anyone having draw problems with Sim City 4?

[Guzz2k]

I've checked and rechecked all the system requirements for the game and I'm rockin' it, so I don't know why the game gets all messed up. For no apparent reason, blocks and lines of other parts of the city view show up and the next thing I know, I have a fragmented world with cars driving through houses.

Suggestions are appreciated.

I'm running a 15" PowerBook G4 with a 1 GHz chip, 512 MB RAM and 24 gigs of free space on the HD. I'm not sure what 3D acceleration chip I have, but I think it's the NVidia GeForce.

You know what? Forget about it. I called Aspyr's help line and they told me it was a one letter spelling error in a text file that was messing it up. They had me change that one character and now it's running like it's got a doctorate in smooveology.

how does Sim City 4 run on other machines like an 867 G4 tower

I'll put it this way. There isn't a Macintosh around that will play SimCity4 decently. Course there really isn't a pc that will either.

Wow, the games board moves slow....

In any case, about SC4: anyone figured out how to use USGS data in the game?
