THE GUIDE: Launching/Running/Modding SC4 Deluxe

Last Updated Jul 2024

Please read the blue marked post below for the new guide which has information provided by Ulisse Wolf.

Download the .dll files that you choose from the provided links (make sure to include SC4fix.dll). Place these files into the SimCity 4 plugin directory (or wherever instructed to by the mod authors).

Running Executables on Linux with Proton:
If you are using Linux and need to run dgVoodoo or another executable, follow these steps:

Install protontricks.
Load the SimCity 4 default prefix with protontricks.
Start Task Manager and use it to launch the executable. This will ensure it runs inside the correct Proton environment.
For any Windows .dll files you install, such as DirectX files, use protontricks to open winecfg and add the .dll to the libraries list as [native, builtin] - if you get a warning for a library, such as ddraw.dll, you can skip that one or your game may not load.

This guide has greatly simplified over the years, and I want to thank the contributions from the community, especially Ulisse Wolf!

Just to add some more information

The development of the Mod DLLs allowed us to analyze and correct the problems plaguing SC4 and we found that the launchers were making the game slower because of the autosave feature and both the launchers and launch parameters were found to be broken and not doing what everyone thought they were doing. That's why that the launchers were hidden on simtropolis and we don't recommend using the launch paramenters because they are faulty.

For this reason and because of the ongoing changes in the SC4 ecosystem a new guide is being made

https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/762954-simcity-4-ultimate-guide/

And I recommend that you view this guide on how to improve performance

https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/762953-performance-and-graphics-list-index-of-all-critical-mods-to-install/

It should be noted for these changes the SC4 community only offers support for version 1.1.641 (Steam and GOG) and for Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. All other versions of SC4 and different operating systems are no longer supported by the community. All information is available here

Nice one man. Just installed the game, first time in 10 years and your post is the first one I've used.

I know this is a necro, but whatever.

I've tried 2160p (4K), but the terrain starts to cascade on itself. Not to mention that the ui becomes so small that it becomes unusable. If there is a way to scale the ui, I would like to know. but so far the game isn't really playable in 4K unless you like cascade vision and putting your face one centimeter from your screen to read the text.

Some graphical glitches did appear here and there, probably unavoidable (because of the age of the game). Try alt-tabbing in and out. As for the UI-size- I only played 4k on a 40+ inch monitor and didn't have any problem reading the text, anything smaller you should probably consider 1080p.

It's completely possible to adjust the UI, but someone would need to create a new UI mod to do it. So far as I know, no such mods exist currently.

It's a toss up if you have a hi def display (over 1200px vert.) as to whether you should run it in Software Rendering to get the full resolution or switch to something 1200px vert. or less so you can run the vastly superiour DirectX renderer. Because if I had expensive high-quality monitors, I wouldn't run Software with SC4.

Geez, I won't do that on a 1st gen i5 laptop with Intel integrated graphics. Quality tops resolution any day, something I've been an advocate of since the days of 14" CRT monitors.

MGB - the problem is when you run the game in DirectX over 1080p, it crashes out.

Yes, I'm absolutely aware of this limitation. My point is however, why would you sacrifice the image quality just to see more pixels in a much lesser quality. If you understand the limitations of Software Rendering, you'll quickly see why running it leads to terrible image quality.

See the linked screenshot, running 1080p with DirectX rendering. I've got all sorts of anti-aliasing and post processing effects ramped up. I'm using HD Terrain, Rock, Water and Beach mods, all of which can not be used with software rendering. That's the point, you get more pixels, but each one looks rubbish by comparison. Better to run in a lower res and accept the limitations of a 15 year old game IMHO.

Well the thing is, when you play a game like SimCity at 1080 on a 50+ inch monitor (that normally runs 4k), everything is gigantic, and feels zoomed in almost to max, even when you're zoomed out all the way.

Games like this, if you have more pixels on the larger screen makes it much easier to play, not just prettier.
