Explanation of the Landmark Converter Theory

At our city exchange, we have come up with a way to distribute the custom landmarks that mayors love to use along with the cities themselves.

  • All you have to do is download the city and the landmarks from our exchange.
  • They will be in .zip format so you'll need to extract them. Inside the folder that you extracted will be some subfolders.
  • You will select all of those subfolders and copy them to the following directory:

C:\Program Files\Maxis\SimCity 3000 Unlimited\Apps\PlugIn\

  • After this is done, extract the city and open it up. All of the landmarks are now visible and available for you to use. If this worked for you, congrats... if not contact us.

Other Landmark Conversion Tips: Here is the "All the Landmarks All the Time" trick. It is not considered a cheat by Maxis at SimCity.com, so we won't either. So that you may use more than 10 Landmarks, or place all building as you like (this is important now) you'll need to:

  • Open and close the Power Plants menu
  • Open and close the Rewards and Opportunities menu
  • Open and close the Garbage Disposal menu
  • Open the Landmark menu.
  • All building are available and you can use as many landmarks as you like. This is not considered a cheat by Maxis because you do not use the cheat chat window to activate it.

Also free to visit the beta-tested prototype city that proved this all to work at Redsneezy & Sons Construction.

It has been brought to our attention that some of our visitors are hesitant to send their custom landmarks along with their cities for fear that their buildings will be stolen and posted elsewhere. We would like to reassure you that the landmark files that you send us should already be converted and thus, cannot be edited further. Also they cannot be uploaded to the official SimCity exchange as they are not the right file type. Rest assured that your custom landmarks are indeed safe with us.
