til files are relatively small and thus can be transported easily (the more buildings in a set, the bigger the. DAT file is quite large, and so handling the entire file would be a pain. Well, all the graphics (buildings, infrastructure, etc.) you see in SimCity 2000 are stored in the SC2000.DAT file of your hard disk. How does SCURK and SimCity 2000 handle graphics?

See the page on converting SCURK files between platforms for information on how to do this. How do I convert DOS tilesets to Windows & Mac tilesets? If you're using Windows, then you may need to edit the base of the object to look good in the smaller tilebase. So, if you're using DOS, you will need to place the object into a 4x4 tilebase such as the arcology or power plant tiles. Doing so in the Windows version of SCURK will result in only the base being clipped. Placing an object designed for a 4x4 tilebase into a 3x3 tilebase will result in the object being clipped.In the DOS version of SCURK, it will clip both the base of the object, as well as the top (that is, if the object is tall). How do I use 4x4 tilebase buildings efficiently? You can check out SCURK on this site here. Please visit the SCURK links page for more links. Where can I find other web pages for SCURK? See the next question for additional SCURK sites. You can download them from this site's SCURK Graphics page or from various on-line forums on Compuserve, AOL, or Prodigy.

However, SCURK comes bundled with the "SimCity 2000 Special Edition" package and the "Ultimate Sim" package, both packages containing many extra bonus tilesets. Maxis no longer sells SCURK as a standalone product. In addition, you'll have to have SimCity 2000 installed on your hard drive. 4MB ram, a hard disk, and a mouse are also required. You'll need an IBM (Windows 3.1, Windows 95, DOS 3.3 or above) or Macintosh machine, each with SVGA and at least 512K of video ram. You can also print your cities with several options at your disposal. You can place any building anywhere in a new city or an existing city, without money constraints. You can create completely new collections of buildings to create specific themes or whatever you like. SCURK allows you to alter or replace the buildings in SimCity 2000, as well as create brand-new ones.

It's a retail product and thus can't be downloaded or shared with others. Like a scenario package, it's an add-on for SimCity 2000 that expands SimCity 2000's flexibility and depth. SCURK stands for Sim City Urban Renewal Kit. Something with a Pentium 1 or 2 would be great, but that will be a build for the future. With all the issues I have with windows 98, I’m going to need to build a better computer specifically for that era. I find that it plays most late 90s games and early 2000 fine.

I was able to fix it after reinstalling the driver.īuilding and setting up my retro gaming pc was fun.

There were some issues with graphics glitching out, but it was an issue with the drivers for the video card. With that out of the way, I installed all the Drivers from a good resource I know and loaded up some games. It will give back confirmation ID, Put that it in, and Windows XP is activated. You should hear the instructions and it will ask you to enter the installation Id on the phone. It’s easy to do, just select “yes, I want to telephone…” then at the next screen pick your location, and call(Amazing that this line still works). There’s still a way to activate Windows XP, and that’s by phone. It needed to be activated, but Microsoft close its online activation servers years ago. Windows XP requires a little bit of work. This Dino was turning into a dream Win98 machine!

I also happen to have a 3.2ghz Pentium 4 Prescott and 1GB DDR PC3200 RAM plus an Old raptor hard drive 70GB. What I found was surprising! I found a Radeon 9800 pro! which is one of the best graphics cards you can get for older windows 9x systems. I did remember that I had some old hardware lying around, and I thought it was worth looking. But after using Windows ME for a while, I realize it lacks the dos support I wanted for playing DOS games.

My first attempt was to install Windows ME.

Since I happen to have my old family’s Dell PC restore disk for Windows ME. Originally this computer ran on Windows XP, But I wanted better compatibility with Windows 9X programs. This old dinosaur sported an old Pentium 4, 512MB of ram, an old GeForce MX440, and an 80Gb hard disk. The computer which I got that started this whole plan started was an old Dell Dimension 4600.
