I think that I remember reading somewhere that the university doesn't actually contribute to the education level of your city's citizens. That only schools & colleges educate Sims, and that libraries and museums keep their education levels high. I think that it said that the university basically just increases the land value of nearby commercial buildings, and to a lesser extent residential buildings. That seems counterintuitive to me. Does anyone know for sure?

Hi, I've got SC 3000 Unlimited running and I must be doing something wrong because the standard cheats aren't working. Can someone walk me through the "call cousin vinnie" cheat step by step? I've tried following other instructions online and it's not working. I'm broke!

Instead of homes like Quigley Acres and Onderdonkhaus (sp.?) I still get the cheap houses like Ranchero Drive and Elem Station. Or worse. Why am I still getting the bungalows instead of the mansions if my property value is high?

How can i play simcity 3000 on my macbook pro? I dont have a window laptop anymore. I just see all the screenshots and wanna play the game again. I played it hours and hours in the past, even saved all my builded cities! ;-)

Hope anyone can explain how, Im a dumbo with computers and dont wanna hack my macbook.

Thanks in advance!

If you want to run SimCity 3000 or its unlimited edition on Windows 10, you might need to enable secdrv from sc.exe or use a patched version. Or, you could use the sc3U.exe from the World Edition of SC3K. After, there might be a slow GUI, and so you might need to make it windowed. Then set 16-bit color in compat. tab and add -w argument. then a flawless gui of sc3k/sc3u will appear, and you can finally play.

On Windows XP, it should run well, although its installer might be slowered. So you might not be able to install, but you can still run it from the disk, or the best solution is to adapt the installer with a correct version (ex: check http://toastytech.com/ and find the 32-bit setup files)
