What website works with SC4 and the NAM

[Thad1990 6]

I want to upload SC4. What websites work with the NAM? I was told stream does not work with NAM. Which ones are compatible?

I didn't quite understand what you want to do but let's set the record straight.

1 Pirating SC4 is prohibited on Simtropolis and SC4DEVOTION. Read the rules to avoid being banned

2 Compatible versions of SC4 are Steam and GOG. Only from these two sites you can get SC4 with all patches and compatibility with NAM and mods

3 Avoid SC4 versions of Origin/EA App, XBOX Game Pass, and Amazon as they are actually versions of Origin/EA App that are notorious for not having patches and therefore you can't use mods and NAM

Likewise your question isn't very clear and I am not confident that I can answer it.

Do you mean you wish to purchase a copy of SC4? I'd personally recommend buying from GoG, it's the easiest version to get going. You can buy SC4 on Steam also, it's fully patched and works just fine too. If you wait for a sale, you can get the game for around $5, both these versions work fine with NAM.

If you mean Steam (as in buying SC4 from Steam), it absolutely is fine for the NAM. The issue is that SC4 had 2 official patches, originally you'd buy the game on disc then download and apply those patches yourself. However, for years the game has only been sold digitally now, but the EA version comes un-patched and can't be patched, for this reason it's not compatible with NAM, because the base game is broken without the patches. Note too the disc versions will not work on Windows 10 or newer systems, digital is the way to go, again GoG and Steam are the safe choices.
