NAM not working? Please help.

[cowDrinker 0]

I downloaded the new NAM on the front page of the mods section on this website, I downloaded the game and followed the instructions. 

Download: extract > Simcity 4> plugins > Install ? correct me if I did it wrong. I downloaded and installed NAM again and went on Simcity 4 deluxe to see if the Mod had any effect...there was no change to the streets or highways. Why is it doing this to me?! I downloaded Nam before (version 31) and it worked perfectly on my brother's computer not that it matters. 

 

What does this mean? is something on my computer preventing me from using NAM?  I tried it again and again and it still will not appear on my game, I have no idea what's going on and never encountered this problem. I uninstalled SC4 and re-installed it to see if it would work but still nothing happens. 

 

I have the deluxe version if you didn't catch that.

1.  First you must have SC4 installed.  Then if you loaded it from disk, you must fix it with the EP1 published patch as a minimum.

2.  NAM V31 does exactly nothing except fix the traffic system unless you use some of it.  It is all in the menus.  Of course, you read the documentation, didn't you?

 

Now if you downloaded SC4, where did you download it from?  If you got it from Origin, Steam, Amazon or GamersGate you have version 1,1,641 all ready to go.

 

Are you on a MAC?  If not, you can use the installer (linux or windows).  You do not extract the NAM to your plugins file in any case.  It has many conflicting options.  You either use the installer, or you extract it to another folder and follow the instructions for MAC.

 

There are many versions of SC4 depending on the origin of the game, and equally a separate version for MAC.  You need to be much more specific.
