First alpha release with the lot/building plop and prop painter tabs

Make sure to follow the instructions as there are some steps and specific install directories involved.

Installation instructions:

  • Move the file "imgui.dll" from PLACE_IN_YOUR_SC4_APPS_FOLDER to your Program Files/SimCity 4/Apps directory
  • Move the files in PLACE_IN_YOUR_PLUGINS_FOLDER to your /SimCity 4/Plugins directory
  • Generate the cache files by right clicking on RUN_CACHE_BUILDER.ps1 and selecting "Run with PowerShell". This index your SC4 files and plugins and generate the thumbnail icons for lots/buildings and props.
  • The cache building script will guide you where necessary. It may take a while for large Plugins folders
  • At the end, two new files will appear in your Plugins directory, "lot_configs.cbor" and "props.cbor". These are the serialized caches that the plop and paint DLL will use to quickly load the list of lots/buildings and props.

Usage instructions:

  • After the installation, press O in game to open the lot plop and prop paint dialog.
  • If something looks off, check /SimCity 4/ for SC4CustomServices.txt for potential log output
