Columbus Tree Mod by CycleDogg is a comprehensive tree controller for SimCity 4 Deluxe that replaces the default Maxis flora with a natural, regionally inspired mix of trees and shrubs. Modeled after the forests of the American Midwest and Great Lakes, it reshapes how both God Mode and Mayor Mode tree tools plant vegetation, creating believable forests that vary by elevation, slope, and microclimate. The result is dense, varied woodlands with subtle color and texture transitions across your entire region.

Highlights:

  • Elevation- and slope-aware species distribution that produces lifelike biomes
  • Curated palette of deciduous and conifer species, with seasonal variants where available
  • Seamless results with broad God Mode brushes and precise Mayor Mode single-tree tools
  • Tuned to complement the Columbus Terrain Mod; works well alongside popular terrain, water, and rock mods
  • Optimized exemplars for smooth gameplay and consistent auto-filling of empty tiles

Requirements and compatibility:

  • Requires SimCity 4 Deluxe (Rush Hour)
  • CP Prop Packs (2009 and later) are typically required for models and textures
  • Only one tree controller can be active at a time; disable or remove other tree controllers to avoid conflicts
  • Safe to add to existing regions; existing planted trees remain, but new plantings will follow this controller’s rules

Installation:

  • Place the mod folder in your Plugins directory. For best results, load it late (for example, prefix the folder name with “zzz_”) so it overrides the default tree controller.
  • If included, select the snowline or altitude variant that best matches your terrain setup.

Tips:

  • Use the God Mode tree brush on varied terrain to reveal natural transitions from riparian hardwoods to upland mixed forests and high-elevation conifers.
  • Pair with the Columbus Terrain Mod for cohesive colors, textures, and snowline behavior.
  • For very large forests, plant in stages to manage performance and save periodically.
