STEX 100 Million Downloads!

[Cyclone Boom 17,031]

In a major milestone for Simtropolis, the STEX has now reached a grand total of 100 million downloads!
(As of 17:35 GMT, 13 Feb 2015)

Over the past 12 years, members of this community have shared and continue to share content of dazzling and diverse quality. From buildings to mods, the games we play continue to be improved and expanded. 18,848 files later, reaching this figure is really a testament to how strong the member base is, and how influential custom content is for a game’s longevity. Also, special thanks must go to our Dirktator for providing this website -- the foundations which have made this landmark a reality.

Join us in celebrating this remarkable achievement! There may be a few surprises in store over the next few weeks (all will be revealed)...
