What does this do?
- Fixes a serialization bug that could corrupt the savegame, particularly when mods are installed that modify existing exemplars (i.e. Prop Pox).
- Resolves a crash-to-desktop when hovering NAM puzzle pieces over transit-enabled lots.
- Allows other DLLs to load into SC4's memory without a GZCOM framework.
Requirements
This fix is made for versions 640 and 641 of SimCity 4 on Windows. Version 640 is a fully-patched SC4 retail copy, and version 641 is a fully-patched digital distribution version (i.e. Steam, Origin, GOG). Although v641 is supported, it has only been officially tested on Steam.
