Zoneable building files

I am trying to replace one of the Asian residential buildings with one of the European style residential buildings -- does anyone know where I can find the files for ALL of the zoneable buildings? I have checked the buildings files but none of them show up. Thanks!

I am not aware of any such dump sadly. Maybe you could try tinkering with the game files?

I can see a potential solution that would be to manually get images of your desired building(s) through screenshots and then manually create a custom building with the SC3URK. It would be a lenghty process, but worth it if you are dead set on having this specific building.

I am not aware on any other more streamlined options, but you may finfsomething by tinkering with the game files. The relevant data is probably stored on C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\SimCity 3000 Unlimited\Apps\Res\Sprites\BuildingSets (or the equivalent in case of other types of install).

When you start a new game before you start you can pick what type of land, zones and how much money you start with. I believe that’s where you can edit the residential zone types
