SIMCITY 3000
  • For questions regarding the SIMCITY 3000 software, please contact:
  • Please see handbook for more detailed information on the disc judging and the rubric that will be used by the judges. Pages A 9-10; A 29-43; B 45-47.
  • If you need additional copies of the software, please contact the Future City National Organization.
  • Please read if your operating system is Windows XP and you are having trouble using the software:
    • There is a patch available at the following website that will allow your system to operate the software properly. Older installations of Windows XP may be missing a 'virtual device driver' required to run SimCity 3000. The patch is available at the Windows update website. To get there, open Internet Explorer, go to Tools, and select Windows Update. You will be taken to a Microsoft site. The site will scan your Windows operating system and bring up all the patches you have not yet installed. Some of these are optional, but most are critical to maintain Windows security and to prevent virus attacks, so it's a good idea to do this often to keep your computer safe."
  • Important information for teams using SimCity 3000:
    • ***Running SimCity 3000 on Windows 2000 and Windows XP*** Instructions: The SimCity 3000 packaging indicates that the program runs on Windows 95 or Windows 98, but it will run in Windows 2000 without difficulty. Windows XP users will have to set SimCity 3000 to run in Windows 2000 mode as follows:
      • After installing the program, go to Start, All Programs, Maxis, SimCity 3000.
      • Instead of launching SimCity, right click on the SimCity 3000 icon, select Properties, then select the Compatibility tab and change it to whichever mode works best in your system.
