Xl User Interface Mod 1.79.9

Did you try the "Installation Instructions" on the overview page?

 

Thanks a lot man it really helped!

 

hi guys, can someone help me?

I downloaded the installer, than i selected run, and when it asked me where to download the file, I choose where my file "cities XL platinum" was, --> BOOTCAMP ( C: )/Program files/Cities XL platinium <-- and when i look in the folder of the game, there is nothing change, also when i start the game, there is no added menu or any changes.

I have no steam folder because I installed it with Utorrent (yea I feel guilty but I don't really have the money to buy it at the moment )..

can someone help please?

 

Just select the main folder of the game on your hardrive. Its so easy

 

well it's like you're speaking chinese to me, my hardrive?

sorry i'm not that skilled (probably not skilled at all) on windows..

 

Can someone make a Cities XL Platinum version of this? Because I have platinum and I can't participate in the Bootleg contest! Also I can't download any fun/cool mods! If there already is a download for platinum, can someone send me it?

 

Is there a guide of how to control the placement of build icons in the construction menu while making custom content?

 

How does one install this on Platinum? I do not have the Steam version.

The installer seems to create a new path "C:\Program Files\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL 2011\Paks" wherein there's a folder "XLVUIMFeatures". As this, no changes are made to the game. However, when I move this to "C:\Program Files\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL Platinum\Paks", I get that game-crashing-on-startup thing.

Help. ;_;


Edit: Further confusion:

I cannot locate any of the conflicting files the overview suggests I remove. The installation instructions also don't seem to mention any special consideration one needs to take for Cities XL Platinum. I am at a loss here.

 

Run the installer again and choose uninstall.

Install it again, and when it asks for the Install Path, browse to "C:\Program Files\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL Platinum" and install it there... DO NOT select the Paks folder, install directly to the "Cities XL Platinum" folder.

 

IT WORKS.

Thanks I love you bye.

 

Hi there Ive just come back to cities xl 2011 and I'm starting a fresh. I've started by patching in all the dependcies including this latest uim. The game works fine with all installed and the menu and additions are great and working but then I set about patching other mods that I liked from roads to beach walls , houses harbour ect and every time the game fails to load .

I've removed them and the game loads fine then I tried patching them in one at a time and the game fails to load. Any ideas why this is ??

 

Hey there,

I'm hoping someone can answer this rather quickly. I want to make sure I'm installing the UIM mod into the correct location. The instructions can be a tad confusing considering there's multiple versions of the game. I have the platinum edition. Should I be installing it into the installation folder? For instance, if I were to choose to install Cities XL Platinum onto my desktop for safe measure, would that be the location I choose when installing the UIM mod? So for instance, I would choose C:\Users\****\Desktop\Cities XL Platinum. Is this correct? I ask because the installer thinks it should go into C:\Program Files (x86)\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL 2011\. This folder doesn't exist until I start the game for the first time (as far as I remember).

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

I'm asking because after what could have been a failed first attempt at installing UIM, I found a lot of mods were causing the game to crash before it could launch and the log is telling me that there were issues with certain tags. I read somewhere that having the latest UIM installed was supposed to fix this, hence me thinking I may not have installed it correctly.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Read Altiris replay about 3 posts above yours.

 

That being said, 'C:\Program Files\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL Platinum' does not exist on my hard drive as of yet, so installing it there seems to be an option that does not make sense, hence my post. I'm simply looking for clarity and I want to make sure I install it to the right place before I move on.

Can anybody else shed some light on this?

Thanks.

reply - Where do you think you installed your game? try right clicking on any shortcut icons. click properties then look for target path.

 

So @wreckthisplace , seems like you totally fulfill the expectations one could have about your username.
So, nonetheless, let's try to fix your little problem:

Did you buy Platinum via Steam, or did you buy it as a disc?
In case you bought it via Steam, you then have to go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Cities xl 2012"
But, to be honest, this is all part of the instructions that Altiris gave us.

in case you bought it as a disc, go and re-install the game, there must be a path 'C:\Program Files\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL Platinum'.
