The text portion of this file was restored from the March 2026 database backup. However, the file which was under the Download button is not available. This is because it was uploaded after June 2024 (the date of our most recent full STEX files backup).

Also for this same reason, any images stored on ST for this file are missing.

(Please see here for details on the site crash and our recovery plans.)

Released

CHANGELOG - 13.08.2025

  • Restored the PIM-X installer and removed the portable version due to program instability.
  • Restored the previous installation system and optimized it.
  • PIM-X no longer has the 4GB Patch built in. It requires the patch to be applied.
  • Updated New_Properties.xml with the latest version

CHANGELOG - 02.05.2025

  • Removed the installer procedure, DLL installation and incoprotected inside the PIM-X folder new_properties.xml and setting.ini
  • PIM-X is now available with a portable installation so you can move the folder to any location without having to install the application
  • PIM-X now has the built-in 4GB Patch

 

CHANGELOG - 10.03.2025

  • as of the release day of this update the latest version of new_properties.xml is included with this upload. Please be aware, that the new_properties.xml is in constant development the latest version of this file can be always found on the official github page of this file: https://github.com/NAMTeam/New_Properties.xml/releases/latest
    • the following updates were made to the new_properties.xml by Ulisse Wolf and Tyberius06:
      • CAM 2.5 Support
      • MTA Support (includes Z1's previous updates, and some further property adjustments from recent years and the freight rail station stat calculations got an overhaul update)
      • Submenu Support (The original pre-defined submenus show up with their names - instead of the IDs - on lots that have them)
      • Growify Support
      • Custom Budget Departments Support
      • Building Style support
      • W2W Support
      • Modpack Zero Support
      • Occupant Group ID Names update (this version of the xml contains as much of the former BSC Reward Chain OGs as it was possible to recover. There is also now Occupant Group ID for Ground Light Rail - GLR - and Hybrid RailWay - HRW. A detailed Occupant Group list will be revealed at a later time)
  • the settings.ini file also got some updates and fixes. From now if a user wants to create an Opera House file, PIM-X will automatically assign the custom UI that was defined in the Opera House Fix, but this also means that one needs to have the BSC Essentials v2024b (and above) installed when they want to play with the opera house. 
  • added a new config.ini file to unlock the SC4 PIM-X Advanced User Mode (read the included text file about this content). This is an optional feature and recommended mostly for users who are confident enough using the iLieve Reader and PIM-X anyway.
