GAME NOTES

City  Life  Deluxe,  the  follow  up  to  the   critically
acclaimed city builder, City Life,  keeps  all  the  great
aspects of the  original  and  expands  the  possibilities
through exciting new content and features.  Over  100  new
buildings, including famous structures such as  the  White
House, the Eiffel Tower, the Kremlin and  others  will  be
available  in  the  game,  along  with  new  maps  and
fully-integrated content editor. Now players will be  able
to create or customize buildings  and  share  them  online
with other City Life: World Edition owners.

This game is also known as "City Life: World Edition".

PROPER NOTES

-> BuildingCustomizationEditor.exe

RLD:

00813150: JMP DWORD PTR DS:[A61720] = 0107E8D8
00813170: JMP DWORD PTR DS:[A6171C] = 01000368
These jump outside the exes memory and will crash.

They made more mistakes like this.

VTY:

This exe was not protected in our version.

-> BuildingImporter.exe

RLD:

00435DD0: CALL DWORD [kernel32!CloseHandle]
Uses correct REF to CloseHandle (43D124)

004511A4: CALL DWORD [578008]
Uses a different (non-linked) REF to CloseHandle (578008)

004511BF:  CALL DWORD PTR DS:[57801C]
;kernel32!CreateSemaphoreA
Non linked import

00460C4C: CALL DWORD PTR DS:[578024]
;kernel32!GetProcessHeap
Non linked import

004587DA: CALL DWORD PTR DS:[578010]
Not linked, this let it crash on our systems.

There are many more like that in their exe!

VTY:

Our BuildingImporter.exe  seems  to  be  a  lot  different
because we bought the Deluxe version. The exes  cannot  be
compared.

-> CLD_editor.exe & CLD_FullEdit.exe (identical files)

RLD:

008F71A9: JMP DWORD [A7D28C] = 00010100
008F71B9  JMP DWORD [A7D288] = 01000300

These jump outside the exes memory and will crash.

VTY:

JMP DWORD [oleacc!CreateStdAccessibleObject]
and
JMP DWORD [oleacc!LresultFromObject]
