Night Lights patch 1.1.641

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

Many of my custom downloaded buildings aren't lighting up. The version I have is 1.1.641. A few of my custom buildings have lights, the majority don't. Can anyone help me? Does anyone know what to do?

[Jack³ 291]

Many custom content buildings require Day & Night Mod (A.K.A. DarkNite) This is a mod that changes the look of the default night to make it more realistic. Most buildings will say if it is required in the describtion.

Also many custom buildings don't even have lit up buildings. You can ask the author of the building if it requires DarkNite or if the building is even lit up at all.

-Day & Night Mod

I hope this helps!

Version 641 indicates you have bought the game off Steam, which means the game is fully patched and night-lights should work. Could you tell us what buildings do and don't light up in your game?

Edit: THIS TOPIC might help, you may need to rearrange your plugins folder to work with your version.

I have exaclty this problem, I was just to create a new topic about this, lights and ilumination of my donwloaded stadiums, landmarks and even cobb's iluminary plaza don't work in night.

I would like someone helps Militant, so I can fix this problem in my game too.

So, what plugnns, modds and/or patches do I need to have installed or downloaded in my game to light and beutificate my cities.

I hope someone could help us, thanks.

Yes, do tell us which plugins are not lighting up. Not all BATs support night lights. You might also need one of the dark night mods as well.

Well, i would like to light up Cobbs iluminary plaza, and my stadiums (as dmscopio's olympic stadium, or the New Anfield Stadium), and also the Glass Tower, SImCity National Bank buiding and Cobb Galleria building.

Please post the download URL's and one of us will test them.

I tried the two lots by Cobb. I happened to plop them at night, and they were not lit. However, once I went to daylight and back to night, they were lit. Also, keep in mind they need to be in an area that is powered.

Unrelated to the query at hand, but what is the difference between 1.1.640 and 1.1.641?

1.1.640 is the CD game version (Deluxe or SC4 + Rush Hour) that has all available patches downloaded and applied - EP1 and SC4Update4BAT.

1.1.641 is the downloaded version of the game (Steam, etc.). It comes with the patches in place and does not need to be updated.

There is no difference as far as the characteristics of the game and how it functions.

[Mister Giggles 310]

Then what, exactly, does the 1 in .641 represent? Something to do with the CD check?

It is just an indication that the game is bought online from a client like Steam.

Just like Captcity explained.

Steam wasn't around (as far as I know) when the games was released back in 2003, so I guess you could call it a secondary release or something.

Mm, well, that makes sense.

Interestingly, Steam did actually exist back in 2003.

...it just sucked. xD

It still sucks. Outfits should not stick extra stuff into your computer that is normally not required. They get a handle on you.

Here are the URL's of the pluggins that I really want to turn-on their lights in the night.

Great City Hall: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/17690-osturland-great-hall-v2/

Glass Tower: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/23233-the-glass-tower/

Glamazon City hall: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/18596-mr-glamazon-city-hall/

And also some stadiums, but I will be happy if only The New Anfield or Dmscopio's simplympics stadium turn-on.

All those buildings are supposed to light-up in night, because there are pics at the STEX of them with nice night lights, but they don't do this in my game, and I would like to know exactly wich donwloads I need and where can i find them (Night Lights patch 1.1.64 and the other stuff)

I don't know but is it possible that the problem is that my game is in spanish, maybe?

Thanks so much for your help pals.

Tried the ones that the links led to, and all seemed to work. I did have to either let the game run through a complete Day/Night cycle or manually switch from night to day and back for them to light - as I mentioned above for the Cobb buildings.

If you have version 1.1.641, you should be okay. Since that is a downloaded version, there is nothing that needs to be updated.
