Cities: Skylines

Jesus I started playing at 1pm!

I have reached Megopolis, 75k pop and around £2mil in the bank.

Bloody game is huge, so far 10 tiles unlocked, and my 780 is holding fine locked to 60fps, game runs fine also.
 
Still loving the game but I've got a couple of wierd issues.

First up I can't seem to access any Steam Workshop mods? Maybe I've just missed it but on the main menu screen with the mods scrolling on the right hand side under the workshop banner if I click on any of them or the banner then nothing happens? Where am I supposed to go to actually download any mods?

Secondly has anyone with an AMD cpu managed to get VSR working? I have a 1080p monitor and it runs fine at that so I'd like to try running at either 1440 or 1800p via VSR like I do in various other games. Here though in the options menu I have those resolutions but if select either of them I get the 'Do you wish to keep these settings' dialog up but it doesn't actually change the res regardless of if I select yes or no. It just goes back to the option screen with 1080p selected again?

Anybody else experiencing either of these or know how to sort them?

Thanks,

Ross
 
for workshop stuff you need to enable it in the menus after you've downloaded it.

mods disable achievements (unless you use the mod which re-enables them, which i mentioned this morning), new models/assets & maps are fine.

When I click on them in that menu it opens the steam workshop page using steam overlay. Have you tried going to the workshop section within the steam page for the game?

Yeah it's the actual downloading that I'm having problems with.

Ah, it seems that for me the overlay isn't coming up. When I subscribe to a mod via the main Steam client it does then show up in game, thanks.
 
2:40am, I really need to get to bed. This game is so damn addictive.

Question though, I've 8k pop in my city (yes started again today but really sussed out roads now, good 1 way systems way forward, science) but I'm still only turning over 3k profit. I've so much industry, but just not making big bucks quick enough. Any tips? Will post a pic of city in morning.

Raise taxes from 9% to 11%.

It takes time to build up the big bucks, just make sure the industry sector has great traffic flow and connections to export.

You might have too many services eating into your profits, have a look and see if you need them all right now. I don't build a school until i unlock high density residential for example. I also don't build a clinic/hospital until you start getting 20+ sick.
 
Hmm 3 clinics, 3 police, 3 fire, 2 primary schools, 2 colleges, already, I guess it's my services killing me at the moment. Roads not a problem, done a lovely little system, although caught it at a bad time in the screenshots, it's not normally backed up like that.

I've noticed if I give all my residential areas too much then my industrial complains about not having enough workers as all my residents are educated and realised factory life isn't for them :p

Mine did that, I created some low eductaion areas they can only connect to the idustrial areas.

For them there is no escape!
 
Experimented with the hydro power plant earlier. Quickly came to the conclusion that the land I was joining was far too low. It produced plenty of power (well over 400MW!), but it did have the downside of flooding my entire city and pretty much removing the peninsula it resides upon...

*quick load*

:D
