INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION MOD
 
SFBT H2O Chemistry by Mathe Man
 
1 - INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW
 
It took me a while until I found the time and energy to resume uploading, but here we go with more IRM stuff. I'm still doing high-tech industry, and from there will work my way "down the ranks", through modern manufacturing and generic manufacturing back to brick factories with old-style manufacturing and, finally, dirty industry.

The second upload in this series is another small and rather old BAT, but yet again quite unique: SFBT's H2O Chemistry modeled by Mathe Man. You might already have noticed that the building resembles the model of a water (H2O) molecule in shape and colour. If you look closely, there's even a little corporate sculpture in the same shape in front of the main entrance.

Since all Maxis lots contained in the IRM Base Pack could optionally be used with toroca's Industrial Jobs Quadrupler, this download is offered in two versions: a regular one for those who prefer the default job numbers, and a quadrupler-compatible version for those who prefer using the modified stats.
The .sc4desc files for the regular version will look like this: IRM_[Filename].sc4desc
The .sc4desc files for the quadrupler version will look like this: IRM_[Filename]_x4.sc4desc
After downloading, simply delete the file of the version you don't want to use. If you leave both in your plugins, the quadrupler version will most probably override the default version.

The default version of the building will provide 24 I-HT jobs, the quadrupler version 96 I-HT jobs.

The following lots are included in this download:

  • 3x3, Stage 1
  • 4x3, Stage 1

For those of you who like to play with day and night view, the building used on this lot is compatible with the following night light mode(s):

  • Maxis Night with gradual day/night cycle: YES
  • Maxis Night with static day or night: YES
  • DarkNite* with static day or night: YES

*DarkNite requires SimFox' Day and Nite Modd (or a similar darkening mod) to be installed in your plugins. 


2 - USE
 
If you extract this archive to your root plugins folder, it should create a folder IRM\IRM Expansion\[NAME OF BAT], where [NAME OF BAT] represents the name of this download item. Within that folder, you will find all the game-relevant files and a sub-folder containing the HTML readme and some screenshot(s).
 
If you no longer wish to use this download, proceed as follows:

  • Bulldoze all lots pertaining to this download
  • Save all the cities and exit the game when you're done bulldozing
  • Remove the associated files from your plugins folder

Hint: Just to be sure, I recommend moving the undesired files somewhere else and doing some checks before you delete them permanently. This way, if it turns out you forgot to bulldoze something, you can add it back in temporarily until you're done.
 
 
3 - DEPENDENCIES
 

  1. IRM Base Pack with all its dependencies - while these lots will technically work, they are meant to tie into the IRM. They may look out of place and show unexpected behaviour if used independently. Since this is an extension to the IRM, all the dependencies of the original pack still apply. If you have them in place, you can download every single growable IRM and IRM W2W lot I have ever made and will never have to download any additional packs for props and textures used on the lot.
  2. SFBT H2O Chemie von Mathe Man - you'll also need the original upload of the BAT to see the building(s). The following files are required:
    - OM_H2OChemie-0x5ad0e817_0x7260ee3a_0x31000.SC4Model (that's the main building)
    - OM_H2OChemieLogo-0x5ad0e817_0x5289aa3d_0x30000.SC4Model (that's the model for the little sculpture)
    - OM_H2OChemieLogo-0x6534284a-0xed2eee45-0x0eec2d83.SC4Desc (that's the descriptor for the little sculpture)
    Any .sc4lot files can be removed.

NOTE: For any dependency hosted at SC4Devotion (SC4D in short), you must be registered on that site and logged into the site's download area, the BSC File Exchange, in order to see the download button. Please bear in mind that there are separate logins for the forums and for the file exchange. For those of you who may still be unfamiliar with the site: SC4D is another major SimCity community with lots of unique content, so you will not regret making an account there.

YES!  I love it.  This is true industrial ART.  Teach basic chemistry along with the fun of the download and the game.  Good idea.   The file page is also very useful in setting up the entire IRM project.  The high-tech development is something there's not too much of on the STEX, so its of special interest to see more of it.  I'm inspired.
