is there an sc4pac corrupt file finder or sc4 corrupt file finder and eraser? Even with SC4 patched, it still crashes at the city load screen.

Got a quick SC4 question?... Ask here!
MstrFox1982 replied to City_Slider's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
hey Wolf, i got it from GOG offline installer which has been the recommendation. turns out that if i install the plugins first via sc4pac before i install the game and then do the 4GB patch, there's no issue. Wish me luck buddy -
So i followed the path, in good faith and hope that the outcome implied would be my reality. But it wasn't. So i'm confused.

22 years later, modders are keeping SimCity 4 alive
MstrFox1982 commented on Ulisse Wolf's article in News
How? followed every recommendation to keep it from crashing, and it still crashes. -

Hey so are we expected to shorten every file name that the program deems is too long? That's alot of extra work again to achieve a simple process that the program is to provide....any other ideas? -

Hey Wolf, i recently used sc4pac to obtain all of the latest plugins, the latest NAM, after a fresh Windows 11-reinstall. I then did the 4GB patch and installed the mods from your "necessary mods" post including voodoo2. Not only does it take 5-7 business days LOL to reach the EA sports load screen, it still crashes at city load screen. If i'm following all of your recommendations and using NAM lite as recommended with the 4GB patch, i shouldn't be crashing still. All plugins have been installed and the maintenance and repair capability in sc4pac has indicated no issues with the plugins installed. What else is there to do? -
hey Wolf, since installing the latest NAM mods that you have listed, SimCity 4 still crashes at city load screen with the 4 GB patch installed.....

I didn't have these things before installing CAM. Now they won't go away since i deleted CAM 2.5 these weren't a thing when I only had NAM before or after the virus issue with it. Same thing with this missing plugin pack message each time i open a city. How is it i'm missing things i never got rid of?
-
oh, cool. So are the 'custom ploppable' skyscraper buildings in the landmark submenu not residential then?
-
I wonder when there will be a submenu for the residential, like there is for the commercial and industrial.

Hello, so i have reached a breakthrough in my journey with SC4 and plugins. Turns out that if you install the game into the program files of the C: drive versus the default path which is documents. Since that change, the game doesn't crash. However, it appears that my city's sea level has sunk! What could be the problem?

hey buddy, thanks for the assist in my post. I quote replied to it. Hope you see it. It has been quite a bear with my computer trying to get SimCity 4 to play without crashing since following the popular lead on this site.

hello - i hope Wolf and company see this message because this is quite the experience. After following your advice a short while back via Reddit which was supposed to be a solution to an issue at the time (How do i bypass these crashing issues with the GOG galaxy version of SC4). I followed said advice of yours (i.e. download the full game and use that outside of GOG galaxy). That ran perfectly fine. Before playing the game, I also followed your advice of resetting it and deleting all the old files. Okay, fine. No issue running the offline download of the full game. I proceed further, before starting my first new city, to use the sc4pac mod manager to get all of the current plugins, packages, NAM and CAM as of the date of this post. I followed the instructions for NAM (including patching the 4gb patch to the SimCity 4 application file in the folders (maxis, GOG galaxy). I should be good to go, right? Wrong! i am now faced with new, interesting issues. the first is the prompt that i added to my most recent reddit post, another is that every game running instance is windowed titled 'Sc4fix v7'. Even when running the sc4pac mod manager to uninstall the sc4fix plugins i think are the issue, it still runs in a window and it crashes each time.

to answer your question, the SimCity 4 offline file installed in GOG Galaxy \ games \ SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition. There is an apps folder with the SimCity 4 application file. I applied the 4GB Patch to it. (see below) There is no other instance of these relevant files elsewhere on the computer. When i install the file, the game files go to documents SimCity 4 with all the plugins going into the plugins folder there (the second screenshot below). I followed Wolf's tutorial segment by segment. the game still crashes.

So i did what Wolf has advised and I have installed the offline SC4 game file that is available with my GOG Galaxy purchase. It's an attempt to bypass possibility of the game crashing that i was experiencing with the GOG Galaxy SC4 game file. Well I went the route, got all the plugins possible via the sc4pac mod manager. Everything is fresh; the files, the regions are blank, i am starting my first city. When iclick the big arrow to load the city, the game crashes. Any paths and know-how to avoid the game crashing would be very helpful, please. I want to get back into SC4 and have the same experience y'all have. This is a brand new, custom built PC running Windows 11 OS. Thank You

hey Wolf, see my responses next to yours above

isn't the mod manager sc4pac supposed to capture all dependencies ?
-
After doing as advised by Wolf regarding the NAM and the CAM situation months back, it seems that I have even more occurrences of the red green and blue squares on even the common buildings. I still have that package downloader app sc4pac gui which is supposed to capture all dependencies. However, it appears that I am still missing something...help

Has anyone created a SimCity 4 Region that's one large tile? the entire region is 1 tile? I sure would love to play that.
-
it does. have you checked that bmp file lately? it's a single blue dot. Last i checked, in a region folder there's a city titled file. that's not there buddy.
-
it came up like a regular region - multiple tiles.

So are you going to drop the links to the BAT files or what?
