    Hey, after a couple of years not using Cities XL I am back.
    However I've got a few questions.

    Which mods are unable to add on Cities XXL?
    I currently bought Cities XXL and I certainly wanna use old mods. While the problem is that old mods require User Interface Mod to be installed and the current Community Patch haven't got all the menu's of the User Interface Mod so I have to rewire the mods can use the mods.

    So I need to know which mods can only be used by user interface mod.
    Aswell as how to change the mod so they are in the right menu.

    I need advice for helping that.
    Hope you can help me out.

    Thank you

    You will find lots of the old mods work on XXL. Some have needed an update and are posted as XXL versions. Make sure you have all the dependencies installed and you shouldn't have any issues.
    As for the interface, there's an unofficial release that's got most of the entries of the old XL custom menu. If you can't locate it here I'll PM you a link once I'm at my pc

    Last version that was made is XXL_Altiris_CommunityPatch_v2.09a
    Not sure what change was done in it from 9 to 9a as I can't remember or find the info in the project forum. I've attached it as I can't find where it was originally posted. The 2.09 versions have the extra menu locations.

    As for changing the locations of mods, you just need to change the tag section in the class file,

    Example,

    <Tag>MS18;Decoration;Trees;GemCity;</Tag>

    The old UIM help PDF helped me out for some stuff.
    codification_tags_UIM_v_1.79.6_sept_2013-1.pdf (I attached this one also in case you don't have it or can't find it.)
