SimCity DS and Simcity Creator are both Enhanced ports of 3000, with minor changes.In 1993, Maxis came up with a new version of SimCity 2000. Much of the new features and improved features from 3000 was later brought over to simcity 4 and improved upon. Another exclusive feature is the ability to share cities through Wiiconnect24 on the Wii, although this feature was shut down on June 28th, 2013 due to Nintendo terminating all online services for the Wii. SimCity Creator is another port of SimCity 3000, however this time it added features from later games such as day and night cycles, season cycles and some more tiny features. Although almost entirely the same as SimCity 3000 (Besides the touch screen controls and removal of some buildings, such as the World Trade Center), it was renamed to SimCity DS for unknown reasons. It is an enhanced re-release of SimCity 3000. SimCity DS was released for Nintendo DS in 2007. Also new was Building Architect Tool, a scenario generator, and a landscape generator. The game included new landmarks, disasters, maps, music, terrain, scenarios, and building sets for Europe and Asia.
SimCity 3000 was released for the PC, Unix (FreeBSD) and Linux (by Loki) in 2000, also going under the name SimCity 3000 World Edition. SimCity 3000 Unlimited Main article: SimCity 3000 Unlimited Scenarios were added in SimCity 3000 Unlimited along with the ability to create your own with the Scenario Creator tool. These four Disasters only appear in the Unlimited Version. Along with the ability to dispatch police and firefighters, the ability to activate a warning siren to help your sims get to safety was added. Most of the disasters from the previous games were removed. On the other hand, SimCity 3000 got rid of the waterfalls introduced in SimCity 2000. Instead of only pine trees, SimCity 3000 added several types of trees, with oaks being prevalent. The land had five levels of steepness instead of one. The ground had grass and varied in color with elevation. Buildings were grouped together more rigorously by economic class, creating distinct neighborhoods. Graphically, SimCity 3000 improved upon its predecessor.

Landmarks were free to build, but limited to ten per city (though there is a cheat that can remove this limit). Landmarks were there mostly for aesthetic purposes, though building one would open the tourism advertising city ordinance.
The ticker would sometimes have a warning of a disaster to come.Īnother new feature was landmarks. If everything was going well, the stories would be humorous nonsense. If something was wrong with the player's cities, the news stories would reflect this. The newspapers were replaced with a news ticker. The player also had petitioners, usually citizens from their city, asking for certain ordinances to be enacted or taxes to be cut.
Advisors in SimCity 3000 gave the player in depth advice rather than simply discouraging the player from cutting funding as they did in SimCity 2000. If they allowed it to be built, the player receives a certain amount of money, but also has to deal with an undesirable effect. Players would have the option of allowing a certain type of building to be built in their city. Players could negotiate deals to buy or sell electricity, water, and waste management services. The idea of dealing with neighboring cities was much expanded in SimCity 3000. Also, farms could appear in certain industrial zones. The concept of waste management was added as well as the ability to choose from three zoning densities. Most of the gameplay from SimCity 2000 remained in SimCity 3000. This version of the game did better at the 1998 E3 and was well-received upon release. Instead of focusing on 3D, they expanded the core gameplay. The 3D graphics were scrapped in favor of sprite-based graphics. He decided that 3D graphics weren't viable and brought Lucy Bradshaw to lead the project. Luc Barthelet was assigned as general producer to Maxis. The game was displayed at the 1997 E3 the experience is still considered an embarrassment and the game was expected to fail at the time. After a year of development, the game was graphically on par with SimCopter and Streets of SimCity. The game would have also allowed players to talk to their Sims, as seen in SimCity 64. Although employees thought the idea was impractical, the management pushed the idea.
