I won't discuss "other" workarounds for this problem as this appears to be a taboo subject here (and is likely illegal). However, I'd like to go on record to say that officially suggesting to bypass a security update seems a bit irresponsible to me. If the vulnerability turned out to be actually exploited in the future, those instructions would potentially have exposed thousands of users - not to mention the risk for inexperienced users to screw something up when playing with their update settings. At the very least, I'd advise you guys to add some kind of "At your own risk" mention to these instructions in bold letters to cover your behinds in case something happens... Unless anyone has actually had a different experience, I think the best idea would be to get in touch with EA customer service and to request a digital copy of SC4/Rush Hour/Deluxe on Origin. This can be done in a matter of minutes by using their live chat. You will need to provide proof of physical ownership (a picture of your CDs and/or game manual with serial should suffice). Earlier this week I was able to activate a copy of Battlefield 2 that way, even though it had been purchased nearly 10 years ago and is even no longer for sale on Origin. I've got to hand it to EA, my experience with them was surprisingly very pleasant. IMO, this is the easiest, safest, most cost-efficient and most legit solution.

To be fair, they probably gave him his own server or something.

Turned out that was the problem, I thought you meant my water was too deep Thanks!

Ok, here's a picture of what happens. As you can see, the building "sits" on water, there's nothing underneath it.

Yeah, I tried raising the terrain. Actually, that used to work a while ago, but now even with the bottom of the water being as high as it can be without going over the sea level, I still don't get any foundations.

I've looked all over the forum and haven't found anything about this, sorry if this has already been answered before... Anyway, I can't see the water foundations under most of the seaside buildings in the game, both default and custom. It looks as if the buildings just sit on the water with nothing underneath to support them. What's causing this? I know I'm using a custom water mod, but I removed it and got no results.

This may have been requested before, but I did a quick search and haven't found any results... Anyway, I think a new, realistic nuclear power plant would be great ; the Maxis one is WAY too small. Better yet, why not make it modular, so we can choose different types of plants, cooling towers, etc and set up our own layout?

The Plugin that is referenced for the building props is 'Plugin_RCI_Buildings_Prop_Modd.dat'. I suggest you update them to use the prop files that are found on the Lot Editor page from the simcity.com site. I have no idea where you found that file either.... -Swamper77quote> Unfortunatly that would be illegal, maybe it was a mod from here?quote> Why would that be illegal? All you have to do is to re-release your pack using the Maxis-released props instead of the ones you used, which happen to be props released by Simtropolis before Maxis released theirs. The Simtropolis pack was removed after the Maxis pack release, two years ago, so people who don't already have it can't have it. Here's a link to an older thread that explains what's the matter with those props. Scroll down for the most useful replies. Link

I have every update, all those buildings as props, etc. The only buildings that show up are one of the sheds, the crane lot and the turret lot. All the rest are grey lots with boxes and trucks. I look at the lots in the lot editor, only the blue rectangle where the sheds should be appears, the name of the rectangle is the name of your BAT, it won't appear.
