Title: SimCity 4 Loading Messages
Game: SimCity 4

- Introduction ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This document contains a compiled list of all the loading messages used in SimCity 4.
These loading messages began with SimCity 2000's "Reticulating Splines" message. This
message was played while a terrain was generated. These messages have no significance
on the gameplay whatsoever and are solely meant as silly entertainment. I did not
create these messages. These messages are displayed in-game while the game is loading
various objects. However, I did take the time to compile the list and present it in
this document.
