    Me and my friend are doing a project: rebuilding an existing city in Cities XXL and estimate satisfaction of every zone of city. I have just finished building the city, but I have problem transferring the completed city to her computer! Anyone can help me? We're in need of collaboration!

    To transfer a city from one PC to another, you will need to be running the same game version and have exactly the same mods installed (or the mods you used in the new city) and the same map installed.
    If the PC your adding the files to has no cities on it, then just copy over the whole Cities XXL folder from C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Focus Home Interactive to the C:\Users\NEWPC\AppData\Local\Focus Home Interactive folder.

    The process is similar for XXL. Make sure the community mod is installed manually and that you are not using steam to install it. The one on steam might not be the latest.
