Got my copy... rather excited by this version... 
hope it does better and more...
however reinstalling and reconfigure my plug ins... its taking awhile...
few questions to refresh my knowing that has forgotten a few things....
1] are there any *dll files needed to make SC4 apps work better and where do they go...
2] where does the 4gb patch file go?...
3] does the JRE install where needed or need to place a file some where...
4] what is the version of sc4deluxe when updated...
5] for me the install went well... but the fonts for buttons and text was small to read and colors to similar... and there was nothing that said 'install complete' and then offer an exit... but found install complete in the installing text at the end, but text font was small...
6] is there a z_nam file needed for this version
7] the d.a.m.n. programs where di find information to operate them... there are three versions but only have daeleys which is clumsy... which other version is better
very happy that nam 37 is very close to being complete
Hi Jack!
1. I might be missunderstanding something. So if you have a clean SC4 start at this point, then you need at least
Simmaster07's SC4 FIX. It takes care of prop prox and some other game bugs. Very essential. I use this in the game's default install Plugin folder, which is where you installed the game (it depends on which version you have or if you do use a custom install destination.)
2. 4GB patch is an executable. You need to run it, then browse the original Simcity4.exe from the installation folder (it depends on which version you have or if you do use a custom install destination.). It will patch the original exe.
3. I don't understand this question. If you have Java, then just run the new NAM installer and it will place the files where it should be.
4. It depends on which version you do use. If it is a Steam or GOG copy, then you are good (but as far as I know it should be
version 1.1.638 or above in the case of GOG version). The new NAM installer does NOT check the version of the game anymore (limitation).
5. with the new installer there is not a pop 'install complete' message anymore, but as you found the message is at the end of the install list. About the fonts, could it be a setting on your system? I didn't find it small during testing, so if you could provide an attached image about it, that would be cool to show us, what you have.
6. NAM 37 does not have z___NAM folder anymore. There is only ONE install folder which is the Network Addon Mod. Everything is in that folder now.
7. I have no idea about DAMN versions. I never used them.
I hope it helps a bit.
