About This File

*** Updated: Aug 18, 2006 *

SC4 features a very limited Plaza collection. The plazas included in SC4 have only palm trees, which is not realistic, as not all plazas in the world are located at southern California. Since then many players have made custom Plazas (and even more parks) but the original set was still incomplete.

This pack contains the following:
- Large and Medium Plazas of the same austere design as SC4 but with all kinds of trees.
- Same as above, but with "flora" props instead of already grown trees. They grow and die over 20-year-long cycles.
- Large and Medium Plazas with seasonal trees. They use porkissimo's Seasonal Tree Props.
- A set of Small Plazas (15) using props found in the SC4 dats. These lots had been released earlier by bigmac, but in this release they are improved over and reordered.
- A mini-mod that allows fountains to function also during the night.
- A fix for some SC4 props so that they are displayed illuminated at night. This fixes also the problem with the "switched-off" lampposts at the Mayor's House.

This pack contains 32 plaza lots. Don't worry, they won't mess-up your parks menu. All icons are conveniently placed at the end of the parks menu, and are meaningfully ordered. In addition, they are easily identified by their specially-designed buttons.

For a list of improvements as well as installation instructions please check the readme.

klillestol: Yes, all parameters (park & landmark effect strength and radius, as well as plop cost and maintenance) are exactly the same, only the props (trees and buildings) are changed.

Good god, I just found this after complaining there aren't enough plazas on the STEX. I never use the stock plaza because of those palm trees and with only a few other options it leaves my commercial areas looking very generic. This will do so much for my city!

I have a problem with the parks. When about a month passes I see a bunch of boxes.....where the trees should be and some parts of the lights. Got an idea?

This is really a job well done, it looks so much better than the standard plaza. I was wondering though, isn't it possible to apply the same structure to the building buttons as they did with a lot of NAM pieces? This would mean you have to toggle through the different lots with the tab button but if you organize the plaza's under three buttons it would look very tidy in the parks menu.

lokichild, no this is not possible for lots, it's only possible for network puzzle pieces (like the NAM's tiles).

Pity, because one of the things that makes me stop downloading plazas is the infinite length of my parks menu. There should be some way to make your own submenus. For sure I am going to use these plazas a lot. Myabe some day I am going to make some modular plaza lots, so that I can make every plaza look different with only a small number of lots a a basis.
