I'm not sure if that's been resolved or not but the affected lots worked in all other respects.
My understanding is that most lots on the STEX should work with the Appstore version, though from my time here years ago with the older Mac version I remember an issue with some of them concerning the lights at night not working. The Plugins folder supports sub-folders, so for example I keep the 3 power plants I downloaded in a folder called 'Power Plants' within my Plugins folder and it reads them just fine. SC4lot file into your Plugins folder and you're done. I've only added a few buildings so far (a couple power plants, a click-for-money pavillion, a couple others), but they're all working fine, just download, expand the Zip file, drop the resulting. Because Apple is stupid, in current versions of OS X your Library folder is hidden by default. I can't remember if I had to create the 'Plugins' folder or if it was automatically there after installation, but that's where it goes. Users-> your username->Library->Containers->->Data->Documents->SimCity 4->Plugins
I don't know if you're familiar with the old (pre-app store) version or not, so apologies if any of the following covers stuff you already know.įirst, any mods or buildings you want to add should be placed in the Plugins folder here: I'm no expert, more of a dabbler, but I'll tell you what's been working for me.
