NAM 30 graphic problem

[qc_jFred 0]

Hi guys,

just updated the network addon modd to version 30 from an earlier version yesterday night and I came up with a weird glitch.

When I click the zone button to have a view of zones without the buildings (helps me build the city), some elements of the game won't disapear. Things like parks, peoples' pools. playgrounds, swings, trees, some commercial buildings just lay on top of the zones, without the actual buildings or graphic element of the tile.

I tried installing the latest fix found on the STEX (released April 13th if I'm not mistaken), to no avail.

Does anyone has the same problem ?

I'll try to post a screenshot sometime soon (BTW, would "print screen" let me copy and paste an in-game picture ??)

Thanks !

That's the Props in Zone View plugin. It's one of the optional features of the NAM that you clearly didn't have installed before. If you want to remove it, follow these steps.

Go to C:\Users\[Your Username Here]\Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins\Network Addon Mod

Delete the file named NetworkAddonMod_Zone_Data_View.dat

Done.

Yup, that's right. And I wouldn't even call it a "problem" because the switch to zone view and back is SO much faster if the game only has to reload buildings and textures, but not all the props. Of course, it's a matter of preference what's more important to you - the faster switch times or the "cleaner" zones.
