Title: Forgive a newbie
Post by: cderalow on June 26, 2009, 03:08:02 PM
But how do we mac users actually get this add on mod installed?

The zip file seems to just come with a bunch of html & dat files.

Hi there cderlow the files you have there in the DAT format are the needed files and they should be placed into your plugins folder... The HTML's are the readme's that give valuable information you also need...

LOL actually K8 this is the right spot for help on CAM since its a CAM related issue...

If you want to place the files exactly the same way they are placed by the installer, then use these folders:

My Docs\SimCity 4\Plugins\a_cam for:

My Docs\SimCity 4\LEX_Downloads\BSC\Colossus Addon Mod for:

My Docs\SimCity 4\LEX_Downloads\BSC\Colossus Addon Mod\images for:

Any of the included NAM Traffic Plugins should not be installed at all.
Instead, use the latest NAM and those traffic plugins that are included there.

ok that's helpful, but how do I get the actual plugin to load?  or is there anyway to tell that it has loaded once the program has initiated.

When it is in the plugin folder, they should be loaded by the game and thus, you can play with them without having to lift a finger.
