First person mod for a Sim City game? Thread

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I can't find any similar posts. I was wondering if there were any first person mods for any of the Sim City games?

I mean, look at Sim City 64 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpe_BnXcMc8), go to 1:05 in that video and watch what I mean. It is very basic, but to be fair that's on an N64 game from fifteen years ago, yet no Sim City game that I know of on the PC duplicated this feature, and if a mod of this exists then I'm unable to find it. I'd be perfectly happy if this was a mod for Sim City 2000, as even though it's ancient (in game years!) it's still a great game.

So if anyone is looking for a new project, then please consider a first person mod for Sim City 2000 or later.

By the way, according to the Wikipedia page, Sim City 64 even allows you to fly around the city in a helicopter or travel by train, and in both cases you get the first person viewpoint. How fantastic must that be?

Thanks for reading this.

The only games that would be able to do that is SimCity 4 and the newest SimCity. All other SimCity games are 2D, except SimCity 64.

I thought SimCity 4 is also 2D? It always felt 2D to me and I have played it quite a bit.

Cities: Skylines has a mod (or I believe several, actually) that allows you to go through your city in first person. Not what you asked, but I thought I'd mention it in case you are really looking for a game with the first person possibility.

that's a very cool idea, Sim City 2000 with a retro ray caster would be fun . The source to the orginal is open: Github.com

(it's not SC2000, but the orginal top-down version), that should be do-able for raycasting. all sprites would need to get a 2nd version with height and there we go. I will give it a shot when I find some spare time at some point.
