About This File

This download is obsolete and no longer supported

This file is similar to my Seaport Support File, but it allows various Airports to function without conflicts. This file supports the following airports/airport packs:

- The game's default airports
- Joerg's/Thalassicus' Airport Packs
- SimWings Airport Pack (Thalassicus' files are contained in this one)
- CdS Seaplane Base (BSC)
- SimTropolis Heliport (BSC)
- Moganite's Heliports Pack

For this file to work completely you need to delete the following files from your computer:
- "z_SW77-AirportSupport.dat" (Previous version of this file)
-"Airport_Terminals_AirportDeveloperType.dat"
- "Airport_Terminals_AirportDeveloperTypes.dat"
These last two came with the SimWings Airport Pack in the Thalassicus folder of that download.

Once those three files removed, create the following folder in your MyDocs\SimCity 4\Plugins folder: ZZZZ_ZSwamper Support Files. Then copy the "A_SW77-Airport_Terminals_Support.dat" file to this new folder. The removal of the listed files and the installation of the new file should not affect your existing cities. If in doubt, create a back up your cities first.

NOTES:
- No installer this time, as I lack the ability to make them. BarbyW made it for me last time.
- For unknown reasons, the SimWings Aiport Pack (SWAP) has to be installed in order to use the 2 BSC airports listed above. The SWAP download is about 5 MB. Sorry about this :(

2623: It will only work with SC4 with the Rush Hour expansion pack installed. That's why the "RH+" icon is lit above this comments section. You can try it with the original SC4 at your own risk. I'm not going to be responsible for your decision to do so.

so this will fix the textures on the Maxis airports runways when the Joerg Airport pack is installed? If so, fantastic.

I've searched for that SWAP file you've mentioned and I can't find it. Can you point me in the right direction?

Lakeyboy: The SWAP file can be found here: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=14024. I'm packaging up the SWAP fixes I have made and sending them to Xiziz shortly.

Just noticed that the SWAP airport grass lots crash the game if I plop them with this file installed. If I take this file out, I can plop the grass fine... but no additional airports.
