This SC4 Devotion LEX Legacy Pack features the transportation (bus, subway and railway station) lot sets by the legendary BSC BATer SimGoober (SG), which had been available on the Lot Exchange (LEX) at SC4 Devotion. It includes the contents of 6 previously separate downloads (including many contents that were only availabe on STEX), however the former Railway Lots Collection (released on the LEX DVD in this form) in this pack are covering around another 5 previously separate uploads from multiple exchanges like STEX, the former SimcityKurier/SimcityPlaza and the former PLEX.
After battling a number of technical issues, software incompatibility ultimately shuttered the LEX (at least in its familiar form from 2007 onward) in June 2023, and this package is designed to collect these dependencies in an easy-to-use form, allowing users to install them all in one go, or carefully select exactly which packs they wish to install.
Please note that this pack may receive updates in the near future. Do not redistribute without asking first, mostly as doing so would complicate efforts to properly maintain, update, and provide technical support for the pack.
Bear in mind, SimGoober released and kept some contents on the Simtropolis Exchange (STEX), but then later some of those files were rehosted on the SC4Devotion LEX site in an updated form. This current LEGACY compilation supersedes both the original STEX releases and the used-to-be re-hosted contents from LEX.
ChangeLog:
- general clean-up
- As part of the Project ZIP and LEX Restoration efforts, there has been some changes to the original uploads.
- most of lots have been updated by SC4PIM-X.
- all stations have been updated to NAM/MTA standards
- the custom BTE OGs have been adjusted and updated.
- the custom quries have been adjusted where it needed
Installation:
To avoid conflicts, please, it is highly recommended to use any of the third party cleanitol tools and remove any previous versions of the files from your plugins.
In the ~Documents folder in the main ZIP in the Prop-Texture Catalogue Index and Cleanitol/ folder you will find the Cleanitol_SG Subway Station Lots.txt, the Cleanitol_SG Railway Lots.txt and the Cleanitol_SG BusStops.txt scripts and by using either the newer nos.17's SC4 Cleanitol or the older BSC Cleanitol tool you can search and remove the old and outdated versions of these files. Again to avoid possible conflicts and glitches it is highly recommended to run either of these tools.
Installation: Copy/extract the Simgoober parent folder into your plugins. If you extracted the ~Documents folder into your plugins, too, it's highly recommended to keep it, but move it out of the Plugins folder.
Un-Installing: To un-install the files, simply bulldoze every lot from this download in your cities and delete the files from the plugins folder afterwards.
