0.2.2
717a21f

Requires SimCity 4 Deluxe version 641, Windows 10 or 11 or Linux through Wine or Proton, and a graphics card with Vulkan support.

To update, replace scvk.dll and scvk.ini in the game's Plugins folder. The new scvk.ini only adds Use32BitDepth, so keeping your own works too. This replaces the yanked 0.2.1.

Added

  • A Use32BitDepth setting in scvk.ini that brings back the 32-bit depth buffer of 0.2.0, off by default

Changed

  • The depth buffer is 16-bit, as on the game's DirectX renderer. Surfaces that sit very close together now band where DirectX bands too

Removed

  • The 0.2.1 change for the lines around ground lights, which turned other lines into patches of texture

Fixed

  • Thin lines around ground lights that sit exactly on their model after scrolling slowly, seen on an AMD RX 570

Known issues

  • 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
