0.1.2
e1d5c78

Requires SimCity 4 Deluxe version 641, Windows 10 or 11, a graphics card with Vulkan support and sc4-graphics-options set to Driver=OpenGL and ColorDepth=32.

To update, replace scvk.dll in the game's Plugins folder. scvk.ini has not changed.

Changed

  • In fullscreen, the graphics driver can no longer take exclusive control of the screen, which should let PrintScreen capture the game on AMD graphics cards

Known issues

  • The interface sometimes flickers for a single frame
  • Scrolling while zoomed out is slower than DirectX, by roughly 40% on average in a large city
  • The PrintScreen fix for AMD graphics cards is not confirmed yet. scvk.log says whether it applied: "the driver will not take exclusive control of a fullscreen window"
  • On Windows 11, PrintScreen opens the Snipping Tool, which takes the game out of exclusive fullscreen. Win+PrintScreen captures the game
  • The game stopped responding once in testing, after leaving the Big City Tutorial
  • Cannot be installed alongside SCGL, since both register as the OpenGL renderer
