My Simcity game crashes every time a plop one of the 4ms Airport Billboards by 4ms. I'm guessing there is some sort of lot or building ID conflict. Does anyone have any ideas how to go about determining the cause?
Can you please provide a link to the bill board? My guess is he has used an airport lot to create this and there are restrictions on airport lots.
Thanks for your help and quick response. Here's the link http://www.simtropolis.com/stex/index.cfm?id=13032.
I have just tested these in a new city and also in a city with a custom airport and a Maxis airport. I have had no CTDs.
I would suggest checking out the link in my signature to the trouble shooting tutorial and try that.
Since those seem to cause CTD's only for some users, the lots made by 4ms obviously conflict with some other airport related lots.
Thus I would start Diggis' trouble shooting with whatever other custom airport lots you've got.
Thanks Barby & Diggis. I followed Diggis instructions and it led me to the conflict....(Of coarse it had to be the last file in the last folder). The conflict occured with Swamper's z_Airport_Terminals_AirportDeveloperTypes. Once removed all work well.

Excellent,

That file would indeed cause CTD's, unless you've got all 15 airports installed that are supported by that developer exemplar.
Make sure you'll never have that file in your plugins anymore.
I'd also ask you to install
AC Functional Airports (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1664) instead,
which would give you all those airports, and even more than so...
...all without getting any CTD's with 4ms' billboards or other eyecandy airport lots.
If you have ever before built any old functional airports, using Swamper's support file, you should be careful though.
If you can, try to bulldoze those airports before removing the old developer exemplar.
You may read more about the AC Functional Airports

Could we ask you to send a PM at ST to 4ms and let him know. That way he can make sure that people are aware of this. And glad you got it sorted out. :thumbsup:
