Hello All!!!

I'm playing now SimCity 4 without the patch. and he told me there BAT's buildings but need the patch to access night's sleep. but since I have downloaded the patch, I've installed and all complete, but when I go to the game and therefore selected a city, means that secondary textures disappeared to touch. I need help because I don't like. :(

so Help Me

If you are using the disk version of SC4, you need two patches to make the night lighting appear for custom buildings. 1.1.638.0, otherwise known as the EP1 patch, fixes a number of potentially game-breaking bugs. 1.1.640.0 is the patch for night lighting.

I'm sorry, but it's not clear what you mean by "secondary textures disappeared". The only way to restore the game to before the patch is to uninstall/re-install it. But I would seriously recommend you reconsider that if you were thinking of it. There should not be a problem with the 1.1.638.0 patch, it's been around 10+ years and no such problem has come to light. To save confusion, it would be very helpful if you could show us a screenshot, that will help identify the problem.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

    First I should clarify that the Night Lighting patch is not required to make items that came with the game have lights. But, if you download a custom building or prop, it's night lights can not work without your game patched to 1.1.640.0.

    The problem on the right is that the Overlay Textures are missing. Perhaps when the patch was installed it reset some settings? Check if you've got "Detail" set to high in the Graphics Properties menu. If you have, then the problem will almost certainly be a rendering issue. Again in Graphics Properties, change the renderer to "Software" mode, which should fix it. If it does, you may want to follow along to this guide to try and make Hardware Rendering work:

    thanks, but I've been thinking that I was playing the game without the patch, I have found the solution for this, then download a crack that has the version 1.1.640.0 that is for night lighting. I worked correctly and more efficiently :D
