Download links[edit source]
As the landscape cutting issue has been fixed, my buildings should run fine on the September 24, 2025 build. However, if anything breaks unexpectedly, you might wish to revert to either RC4 or RC5.
2026 releases:
2025 releases:
Installation instructions:
- Open the downloaded file in your preferred program, then open the folder with the same name as the archive.
- If done correctly, you should see the "buildings", "data", and other script folders.
- Select ALL listed folders inside and copy them to your Skyscraper root folder, replacing all files when prompted.
Note to everybody:
- Buildings that may resemble real-life places were created only because they are my favorites.
- Other people also made such creations for the same reasons.
- However, if you really want me to delete a building, please give me a very nice reason, as well as an absolute proof of your relations to the real place.
- Please (in)directly credit me if you want to take photos/videos of my buildings.
- Do not simply steal my screenshots regardless of their details. It is simple to press F11 to take one of your own.
- I sincerely apologize for removing certain screenshots some time after having released the related updates.
- Please kindly read the included "Copyright and Credits" before altering any building or content included.
- I would exercise a fair use (no copyright violation intended) for files created by no longer active users.
- If you do not want me to include any files, please PM me with a nice reason, and with a proof of ownership if possible.
- Lastly, do not make a suggestion as if there were a graphical building designer. As hand-coding takes time, I cannot add every little detail to every single building of mine.

The future of Spacetime Plaza and this IP[edit source]
I deeply apologize to announce that I will no longer start new independent projects after the completion of Spacetime Plaza. However, I will stay in the communities to check out other people's awesome content. There are some pertinent reasons behind this:
- Whenever I browse to the forum thread (including the former and current ones), I would typically see "error reports" (whether about missing textures or large buildings stalling/crashing on lower-end computers) and "requests to add or change files (such as in GitHub)" more than "compliments about my buildings."
- It's fine if users who like my buildings prefer enjoying them silently. However, receiving error reports, requests, or complaints almost every day demotivate me. In other words, such posts make me think feel like an AI that must always work perfectly.
- I am a real person, not a robot or an AI who needs to work perfectly every time. Hence, my IP's releases cannot always be perfect.
- Other important factors: I cannot spend every day working on my buildings, as doing so may make people I know in real life know what I am doing, and might cause them to "exploit my skills" for either higher studies (anywhere in the world) or any kind of job (whether paid or not).
- It is NEVER acceptable to exploit my skills for ANY real-world use, as it will consume a lot of time and resources that should have been used for other important things.
- Therefore, to minimize the chance of this happening, I can let those people know only when I reach my early sixties (or late seventies) in the far future.
- This simulator is a game, not a professional simulation. Even if an official "graphical building designer" becomes a reality in the future, other specialized programs (like SketchUp) will still do better (with less time and more realism) for real life jobs.
- From #2 above, let's say that when I am sitting idle listening to music, surfing the Internet, or reading a book, my phone would be very silent as if its battery were completely empty. However, when I start working on any building of mine, I would receive a call or a message at that very moment.
- When this happens, I must switch to "career mode" immediately without talking about this "strange hobby" at all, as people IRL who know this might either think that I am crazy, exploit my skills for real life work (as stated above), or both.
I would regularly pack up and make a new release at the forum, but the changelog may not be fully accurate. However, please do not always ask me to update GitHub every time, as this is very annoying. Lastly, please do not request me to "add specific content" to my IP's packages immediately after posting a new release. Please patiently wait for the next one before I can fulfill your wish.
There still remains many things to be done in Spacetime Plaza's entirety, so please be patient, and give me a few years before I can officially declare it as "completed." Even DRH took me six (6) years before I can move on, so don't push me. Please note that the parking signs, such as the overhead directional signs and "column number signs" (such as A1, B2, C3, etc.) were created only as "bonus details." Therefore, those stuff are not necessary to add to this complex within the foreseeable future. I still want people to realize that "the most realistic buildings will always be ones in real world."
Finally, I have decided against starting a new hospital for certain reasons. This means that Denver Remston Hospital will remain the most detailed hospital that I have made for this simulator, while still keeping Eastcity Medical Center positioned as my "last independent hospital" created.

Officially separated topics for different matters[edit source]
As being treated like an AI or a bot every time is very annoying, and some people who read my topic may just see "error messages" or "missing textures" and don't download* my buildings at all, it's time to separate my IP's topic into two:
- Main topic (Building updates and releases): Mn10 Integration Project - Main topic
- Discussion topic (All other matters): Mn10 Integration Project - Error reporting/suggestions/other matters
*Note: I am not forcing people to download my releases. If you like other people's buildings more than mine, go ahead and download them. Please just don't always flood my topics with the same things, as it is very annoying. I may stop updating GitHub and make releases only by uploading to MediaFire as usual if this continues. (Even thought it was just "one person" always asking me to update GitHub, I always feel like "a bot" that needs to work perfectly whenever seeing such comments.)
