Don't take my word for it though, I'm not sure! Just my two cents To be perfectly legal you might have to buy the Windows version and use that one instead of a torrent. That being said, I'm not responsible if any of you breach copyright and quite frankly, I don't give a fuck! Go to your favourite torrent site and search for "SimCity 4 Deluxe", make sure you download a full Windows version with lots of positive comments.
I'm not gonna point you to a specific URL because I'm not your mom. There should be plenty of hits on the piratebays and kickasstorrents' of the world. Also, don't worry about cracks or NoCD's that might or might not be included, we'll get that from somewhere else. Be sure to find one with a serial.

And wait for Wineskin to do its thing. Wineskin will ask you to view your wrapper in the finder, let it do so. If you don't have an 'fn'-button, just right-click the wrapper and choose "Show package contents" and open the "Wineskin" app you'll find there. Choose your language and give it the serial number that came with your downloaded copy. Install it in the default path. Mumble "Yeah, yeah, yeah" to yourself and click "Ok". Marvel upon those beautiful isometric high-rises on the install screen while you wait. Don't worry, it'll take a few minutes. Go to this page and download the "sku 2 update", this'll update your version to the latest one available 1.
Fn-click your wrapper or use the "show package contents method" mentioned earlier and run both updates the same way you installed SimCity into your wrapper by clicking "Install Software" and then "Choose Setup Executable". Navigate to your update exe's you just downloaded and patch that shit up. Leave the default paths! Go to this page page and download "SimCity 4: Deluxe Edition v1. While you're here you should decide whether you want your traffic to drive on the left side or on the right side of the road.
I think this depends either on the version you downloaded or on the language you chose when installing SC. Anyway, I had a folder named UKEnglsh and my traffic was driving left hand side, which is something I don't want. Simply rename that folder to "English" to fix it. Some say you should change something in the registry for this to work but it worked for me without doing that Set "Override Wine control of screen settings? Click "Done". Click "Advanced". Close, go back to the "Configuration" tab.
I don't think this really works but I'm putting it in there just to be sure. I use another method to force my Mac to use only one core:. This step is kind of tedious but important if you don't want your game to crash to desktop every minutes. You should download and install Xcode which is free on the App Store. Click cancel.
Quit instruments. Your Mac is now forced to use only one core until you put it to sleep or restart it. You'll have to do this every time you want to play unless you save very often and don't mind it crashing on you. There are thousands of mods available and still coming out for this game even today. The best places are:. Installing mods is easy. If it comes with an exe setup installer just do it the same way you updated your game and leave all the default paths.
It's just in your normal documents folder, pretty awesome huh? Check out this post for the essential mods. New players should definitely check out this post for some basics. One final tip: keep your plugins folder well organised. Only put in the essential files for the mods, take out all the readme's and jpgs!
Also be careful with dependencies, you should really research everything you download to make sure you have the correct dependencies and the latest versions for the mods and be wary of doubles in your plugin folders.
That's it for now! I hope I can make some fellow Mac users happy with this post and maybe attract some new players to this game. I'm having loads of fun playing it again and I'm sure you will too!
