Title: Recovering from computer reload
Post by: straha on July 02, 2009, 02:05:42 PM
I've been away for a while because of a computer crash.  The hardware is back up and running, and I did have everything backed up before the crash.  I have copied my Sim City folder back into my My Docs folder.  I have not loaded SC4 yet, but plan to tonight.  How will this affect plugins such as CAM, NAM, etc?  I am thinking that I will not really have to do much of anything since my entire my docs\sim city 4 folder has been restored.  Is that correct?  Or will I need to reinstall CAM, NAM etc?

If you have a complete backup of your plugins and regions folders, you can simply copy them back the the regular place - no need to reinstall the custom content. :)

Excellent!  That's what I was hoping to hear.  Good backups...can't stress the importance enough.  My plugins folder is a bit over 3gb.
