  1. LEX Files - New Download Links Using @CorinaMarie's SC4 Devotion LEX Files Cross Reference, I started some month's ago to compile a list with new URLs for LEX downloads. I could find matching links for almost 90% which leaves a few hundred entries open. Perhaps we can fill the gap together? If you have a working link for one of the missing URLs (or a correction or update) please post this below and I will update the table. As with Cori's LEX Cross Reference, use Ctrl+F here to search. The File ID corresponds to the lotGet= number in the LEX URL, e.g. File ID "2920" is for the LEX URL: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2920

  2. LEX Files - New Download Links

    Thank you, @Handyman. I have added your post as source for the Historic Commercial Project. For BSC Props Jeronij Vol 02 Trees I used the BSC Common Dependencies Pack as this one will be kept up-to-date. EDIT: I used your post for BSC Props Jeronij Vol 02 Trees as well. Thanks @Tyberius06, for the quick restoration. I removed the note.

    I should have guessed that there were some unwritten rules. Sorry to bother you.

    This about Features: Have the rules changed or is this a bug?

    You could also approach some of the most recent downloaders, especially if the creators have not been active for a while.

    That was well spotted! I added a note and I hope the file will be re-attached to the post as part of the recovery.

  9. Tacoma

    simmering commented on Dgmc2013's City Journal Entry in Rivamar

    A well balanced city. I like how you maintain the large forests. If I had a city with 200k inhabitants, it would grow uncontrolled. Well done!

  11. Guess Who's Next V2

    simmering replied to Duke87's topic in Forum Games

    Correct on both accounts. And think that TG24 should return to this game.

  12. Guess the City/Metro from Satellite Image

    simmering replied to Oliver25's topic in Forum Games

    I am afraid it is only a marginal improvement.
  13. I just uploaded SC4Dict Version 2.5.0. In this version I expanded the external links to the SC4 Encyclopaedia on which I experienced several server downtimes (I wrote about it and @Tarkus responded but our posts were lost to the void period after 28 Feb, 2026 of the Simtropolis server wipe). Anyway, I added links to the Internet Archive to each SC4 Encyclopaedia reference: There are only a small number of 50+ new entries, but many others have been updated.
  14. The first version of my SC4 Dictionary is ready. But I am sure it needs more work. So I hope, in this topic you will share what you think, what else should go into it and what needs correcting. Your input is very much appreciated. Here is the link to STEX: Thank you all very much simmering

  15. Riktor's Point Airport

    simmering posted a City Journal entry in Aulton - Never Finished

    Riktor's Point is a small peninsula that reaches into Quonock River. It was deemed far enough from the city centre to build an airport: Riktor's Point Aulton, RPA. The airport attracted industry with buildings using all of the scarce space. The first passenger terminal quickly became too small and was refitted as a cargo terminal. Thus the control tower is placed next to the cargo terminal and not the passenger terminal which is newer. The passenger terminal is very busy and will soon be running out of space. Wedged between the runway and the industry on the riverbank, the passenger terminal can only be reached via tunnels Due to the proximity of the river, there is no option for more terminals or a second runway. Plans for a second airport are already being discussed. Aulton is never finished.

    The sc4 cli tool by @smf_16 has a function to move items withing submenus. It uses a command line interface. see https://github.com/sebamarynissen/sc4#usage

  17. ideas Site Suggestion Box

    simmering replied to Cyclone Boom's topic in Simtropolis Related

    Following the mentioned issue of lost files that were attached to posts, I was wondering if there is a way to search for posts that have such attachments. If not, could this be added? I feel that there is a number of very valuable or useful ones amongst those files-in-post. Yet they are hidden in a kind of darknet as they cannot be searched for. Here are a few examples of those files-in-posts: Wallibuk's files https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/761930-wallibuks-bats/?do=findComment&comment=1774965 https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/761930-wallibuks-bats/?do=findComment&comment=1790739 https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/761930-wallibuks-bats/?do=findComment&comment=1799863 https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/761930-wallibuks-bats/?do=findComment&comment=1802716 memo' NAM.dll: https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/762985-namdll-open-beta/?do=findComment&comment=1788789 rsc204's Diagonal Bridge bugfix: https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/763609-diagonal-bridge-rrw-issue/?do=findComment&comment=1807747 11241036's Secret Railway Stations: https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/73220-cant-find-it-ask-here/?do=findComment&comment=1745711

    I have sent you the file (and others) with a PM.

  19. Simtropolis Returns!

    simmering replied to CorinaMarie's topic in Simtropolis Recovery Project

    I see, so those are long lost images, which might have had an ImageShack or PhotoBucket placeholder that now has been replaced by an ST placeholder in the course of the restoration work. That makes sense. Thanks!

  20. Simtropolis Returns!

    simmering replied to CorinaMarie's topic in Simtropolis Recovery Project

    @CorinaMarie, @Cyclone Boom, I have a more general observation which I post here instead of in the recovery pages. Are we sure that nothing was lost prior to 17 June, 2024? E.g. for the file I link below, there are a great many comments going back to 2012, all with images. And all the images have a placeholder. I am certain I have seen placeholder images before in posts older than 17 June, 2024. I also notice that the original image name for all of these is "%3C". Maybe this helps investigating it.

  21. Riktor's Point Airport

    simmering commented on simmering's City Journal Entry in Aulton - Never Finished

    There is a good airport tutorial, How to build an Airport: https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=6600.0. Its the one I used for learning how to do this. There is also a 5-part YouTube series called SimCity 4 Masterclass - Airports which is a good start. As for the Airport pack, I still use SC4D LEX Legacy Ultimate Airport Pack despite the fact that it is labelled obsolete. I just don't know what else to use. There is the newer SC4 Legacy - Airport Common Dependency Pack but that is just a large dependencies pack. There does not seem to be a corresponding pack for Lots.

    The mechanical floors at the top are marvellous and the nightlights on the lower roof terrace are something to behold. Stunning!

  23. Can't find it?... Ask here!

    simmering replied to JakeMD's topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    I assume "Bell Tree Tower" is the Detective Conan manga name for the Tokyo Skytree? Both the Marina Bay Building and the Tokyo Skytree have been shown in City Journals by @thecitiescenter and Ke|is (see below). Unfortunately, no public downloads are available for either one of them. For Marina Bay this has to do with licensing rights and so is not likely to change. Perhaps @Ke|is has some additional information on the Tokyo Skytree?

  25. Processor HQ: File Processing Info & Discussion

    simmering replied to Cyclone Boom's topic in The Planning Commission

    When recreating images, should we not add the recreations as new ones and leave the old placeholder images? That way creators can still see the name of their missing images (unless this is not necessary as the information is kept somewhere else, like in the tracker).
