Trouble with CAM

[Hahayoudied 3]

My computer can't open any type of CAM so I can install it. I need the Super Demand Ordinance mod because I am having rock bottom demand problems in my main city. Also, I need help with CAM, not talk about it. I want to know how to open and install Super Demand Ordinance mod correctly, not how to fix the demand problem. If you want to help me fix the city demand problem, go look in, Why is my city connection isn't being used?. I know, that tread somehow got off topic from connection problems to city demand problem.

P.S. I already installed NAM on my computer.

You find it here: https://www.simtropolis.com/modding/index.cfm?p=details&id=185

Just unzip to plugin folder, and it appears under the city ordinance menu.

I said I need help unzip or open Super Demand Ordinance , not finding it.

Go to winzip.com, click "Downloads", then "Download Evaluation".  This will get you a shareware version of winzip.  There is plenty of documentation on how to use it included.

Winzip is something I find it hard to be without, if you're like me you will download your shareware version to a registered copy.

This is where you can get the Demand Ordinance. The CAM is on SC4D, so please check their forums for more information about the CAM.

Again, I know where to get the Super Demand Ordinance, but my computer can't open it.

What version of windows are you using?

It would probably useful to install winRAR to unzip it...

[Hahayoudied 3]

I am not going to buy a program that is 29$ or 49$ to order to open the CAM.

I am using Window xp home edition

Also, which type of program( I will not accept programs that cost money) do I need to order to open the CAM?

[John-SJ 13]

Doesn't XP home have its own unzipper?  I know professional does, but I prefer Winzip.

Oh, you can use the evaluation copy of Winzip for 30 days (last I checked) without paying anything.

Can you post a picture of what it does when you double-click the zip file? I might be able to help then.

There is a free trial of WinRAR, and after that I think it just asks at startup if you would consider buying it...

[Hahayoudied 3]

Okay, I got WinRAR and when I tried to open the files, it still says, Windows need to know which type of program was used to make the file. What do I do now?

If you're trying to open the .DAT/.SC4LOT/etc. files, you shouldn't. Move them to the My Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins folder.

[Hahayoudied 3]

I moved the files to the plugin folder and I still can't open it.

[John-SJ 13]

Try this:

I found this article in the forum section named:  Omnibus, Search Here First.

Sounds like good advice to me.

[Hahayoudied 3]

The files aren't BAT, it is Super demand ordinance that I want to know how to install.

[John-SJ 13]

But you will find instructions there that can be directly applied to answering your question.

Hahayoudied...

*Download and install WinRAR - Sounds like you did.

*Download the flies (Super Demand Ord.) from the STEX - Sounds like you did that, too.

*Use WinRAR to unzip the Super Demand Ord. that you downloaded from the STEX.

*Place the unzipped file or folder in the Simcity4/Plugins folder.

*Run the game.

Hope this helps. CC
