I'm using this tutorial : http://www.thesimsresource.com/down...rials?ID=312429

I finished the neighbour hood and saved and went to Docs/Sim City 4/Regions but I get Berlin, Downloads, Fairview, London, New York, San Francisco and Timbuktu - no region I made. I went back into Sim City 4 and it's there! Still, no file. In Downloads folder off Region I have City - New City.sc4 that's 377kb. So what have I done wrong?
Thank you.

Are you only choosing a small neighbourhood in SimCity4?
The first time I tried this, I made it too large for Sims 2!!
Also are You in MAYOR mode when making it in SimCity4?
Hope this helps!

When you make a city, you make it inside a region. So look in each of the regions (unless you remember which one you used) and you should find it there.

Check out The Brixham Project so far (and a lot more to come)!

If you save your city before you enter the mayor mode it will be called "new-city then new...2 3 ...
trick:
Enter the mayor mode first, name the city, then back to god mode (ctrl-shift-alt + click god icon)..

Ok.. Iam having sort of the same problem and I've followed the instructions over and over and over again.. still somethings really wrong.. It drives me crazy >.<
I tried to open a small city in Timbuktu, opened the Mayor option first renamed it and then used the Ctrl + alt + shift and God option. After that I remade it and then when I opened the Timbuktu file in the Region file I could simply not find it.. so I tried agian and Ive been trying for several hours figuring out what Iam doing wrong.. without progress whatsoever.. Can somebody please help me..? I just cant find anything Ive done...

Don't blame me Iam just a newbie! :blink:

Do you save your city ? during the game it is CTRL+S
TRY : enter the city, name it, build 1 square of road ,save and quit the region, the name must appear. If not check the attributes of your files perhaps they are in read-only mode ?
I never use the default regions, I work in an all small cities region it is easier to move them, no more matter of size.
Courage !
