Introduction / Overview

Harcourt House Mass Mutual Tower is situated at a prominent location in Wanchai. It was formerly known as the Fleet House and used to be the clubhouse for the British Navy. The building was acquired by the Chinese Estates Holdings Limited in the late 80s and was renamed as Evergo House in 1994. In mid-1995, extensive alteration and renovation works were carried out to the building and facade, which led to the external appearance at present. The building was subsequently renamed as Mass Mutual Tower in 2000.

Installation

First of all, it is recommended to unzip the entire content of this ZIP into some archive folder where you keep all building versions, readme, and screenshots, and maybe even back it up onto a CD or an external HD together with your other SC4 stuff. This way, if you need to clean your HD and reinstall your OS, you can simply copy the stuff from your backup archive into your plugins folder instead of having to download all plugins anew.

That said, in order to use this building in game, I suggest you first go to your plugins folder and make a sub-folder for this download.
Then, simply copy the .sc4model file(s) (the actual building model) plus the lot file(s) of whatever version(s) you'd like to use into the newly created folder.

To uninstall a version you don't like after it has grown in your cities, first bulldoze all instances of that version in your cities, then save the cities and exit. Now you can safely remove the version without running any risk to experience crashes or any other inconvenience.

Wow another prominent Wanchai commercial building! Great that you give us a ploppable as very tough to get a 11x3 lot to grow ;-) Will you be giving us other Wanchai landmarks like the Hopewell Center or the HK Convention Exhibition Center soon?

Spa: Very unlikely, because many of these Hong Kong buildings had big ad signs on the roof, so far I see Bixel and most other HK bat team members are very faithful to the original. ;-)
