As those "disks" (nowadays simply downloads ) sound from what you say "not so well maintained and not really up-to-date anyway", do not bother. 
As far as I understand you are currently working on restoring the files anyway, and I guess CAM will be restored sooner or later. I'll just wait for that. (One of the advantages of age: patience). 

The full CAM restore is coming soon. Just be patient, as the restore will be the CAM 4.0.0 update. For now, you can download it via SC4pac, as the downloads are also available on SC4E.

I actually tried via SC4pac, and if I am not missing "something" some of the dependencies are currently missing:

Sorry for the screenshot, but I found no way to just copy the paths out... 

I assume the program looks automatically in all channels it has configured, those channels seem to include sc4evermore and I am not doing something else wrong, that I am just to blind to realise. (Installing NAM worked via that program like a charm, btw.)
So I guess I "just have to wait a little longer", right? 🤣

Maxis Prop Names and Query Fix has been restored. Run the repair function to download it.

Looks like that worked. 👍CAM is installed and from what I can judge everything looks correct.

Thanks a lot! Now I will have to dig in on the manuals of the CAM and see in practical play what difference it makes. 🤣

Simtropolis's heartfelt gratitude and a warm fuzzy feeling knowing you've helped support the site.  

Then, depending on the donation amount (and the method you chose), you can also receive up to three discs (in Zip format) for free. STEX Collections Discs contain files from the STEX. Even tho they have older files, most are still good content to use today.

What you'll want to be aware of is that they are identical to how they were online at the time the collections were compiled. If they have a list of dependencies, those will not likely be included so you'll still need to find them separately.

For building your plugins, the sc4pac method is now the most thorough. The collections are a nostalgic thank you. 

Please do donate if you can and know that supports the site. But if you are sending money only for what you'll get, be aware that it's not a self contained set of plugins and there are no automated installs.

Hi, I'm nobody really, but I know Corrie and Cyclone are so capable to maintain this community. Likes to you guys and Dirk.

Been here FOREVER. Still playing SC4. I used to be FRNDOFYAWEH on Simtropolis. I am still here, as The Cryb Keeper(crib keeper, keeper of the crib).

New members, new to the game, maybe a bit of a lurker, just looking for mods, please come on in and introduce yourselves - we all appreciate everyone.

It's great to have you here Arken, welcome to the big city friend.

Hey! I've known you all at simtrop for quite some time now. I used to have a different account, @Mayor Isaac. You can click there, if my old account still exists. After simtropolis came back on, my account was fine, but then the next time I logged back in, It was gone, just like that. I'm a seasoned veteran in city building, and you're welcome to ask for help anytime on my feed.

[CorinaMarie 29,578]

@IB22 

I do indeed see the @Mayor Isaac account. If it had an avatar and/or profile pic, those got lost in the crash, but the posts are still intact.

So, when you say it's gone, that confuzzles me. Or do you mean it won't accept your password now? @Cyclone Boom and I can help you recover the account if it's just something glitching. And then we'd combine both accounts so you don't lose any posts from either.

Things have been a bit hectic (as you can prolly imagine), but give me a general overview of the trouble here. Then when we get a chance I'll send you a PM (Private Message) from us with a game plan if you'd like to get your old account back.

 @CorinaMarie

I haven't tried to log in for a while, but I remember it saying something like "The information is invalid" or something like that. I know the username and password were correct, because I have them saved on my computer. So, what gives? Just a glitch in the system?

Yeah, might be Gremlins.  

We did have a major SNAFU when ST went missing for a few weeks. 

Please try it again so you can be more specific about how the site is complaining. Whatever it is, CB can fix it. Just it might help to know which dark depths of the database he needs to plunge into.  

[IB22 7]

@CorinaMarie 

I tried it again, and it simply said, "Log in failed. Please try again."  I know the credentials are correct, as I had used them to log in before the website crashed.

Welcome back. I have fond memories of reading your Grid Secrets experiments about 20 years ago.

I've assigned a new PW and sent it to you via PM.
