Can't install NAM 32

[adlf 0]

The installer keeps saying Im not running the rush hour expansion pack, but I am. I even have a previos release of the NAM. I dont know what the problem is.

Try uninstalling and re-installing SimCity 4.  Make sure to copy your "Documents\SimCity 4" folder so you don't lose your regions and plugins.

The NAM was changed as of NAM 31 to make sure that the SC4 executable was up to date in order to be compatible with the NAM.  If the installer says you're running the original version, then the executable has the original version number in it.  Where did you get your copies of the original and Rush Hour expansion pack?

In a word, you can first of all check to see what the build version is.  If it is 1,1,610 or 1,1,613 it can be updated to 1,1,638 using the appropriate patch on this page. 

 

However, if the version you loaded runs without a play disk (clearly you don't have one) your copy is pirated and illegal.  The patches won't work because the check-sums will not match.  In that case, I hope you didn't pay for it.  What you get for free is worth what you paid for it.

 

The best recourse is to purchase a legal copy of the game from one of the licensed download sites: Amazon, GamersGate, Steam or Origin.
