    A memory allocation error? It's a server side error, either the server your on doesn't have enough memory left to load your city, or your city has exceeded a memory cap

    Check here: http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri

    It's either a EA server side error (lack of memory to load the update) or something on your pc.  If your pc meets the requirements for the game then try the below suggestion and try again.

    I can suggest:

    Turn your PC on/off

    - Close down any and all extra programs

    - Check your graphics drivers are up to date

    - Check your system meets the minimum requirements

    - Check you have 10GB of extra space on the HDD

    - Restart Origin

    Hope this helps!

    You can disable services and start-up programs in MSConfig.

    1006 is indeed a memory allocation error but it is client side not server side.

    On PC

    Update to the latest graphics card drivers from nVidia, AMD or Intel

    On PC or Mac

    Restart SimCity

    Reduce your graphical settings to minimum and see if you can load into a city, then increase individual graphical settings one by one. If changing one setting (especially lighting) causes a memory allocation error then reduce that setting again and these will be your optimal settings.

    No es correcta la solución propuesta. Favor abrir ticket y seguir analizando el problema porque sus clientes, me incluyo, necesitamos jugar sin tener conexión y sin tener el fallo 1006.
