I made a tool to view meshes from SimCopter and Streets of SimCity (link in comments)
After the release of SimCopterX and SimStreetsX (tools that patch SimCopter and Streets, allowing them to run on modern versions of Windows without the use of external tools like DxWnd), a community of SimCopter/Streets enthusiasts gradually formed on the SimCopterX Discord server, which provided an incentive for me to actually finish this little tool (as well as make some silly mods).

I made a tool to view meshes from SimCopter and Streets of SimCity (link in comments)
I started working on this a few years ago after figuring out how to run SimCopter and Streets of SimCity on modern versions of Windows using DxWnd (I was a big fan of SimCopter as a kid and played Streets as well). At the time, I found some existing documentation that covered the basics of the Maxis mesh format (see the Reference section of my docs on the Maxis mesh format) but was missing a number of details (e.g., texture mapping and the meaning of various values) that I had to figure out on my own.
What are some alternatives?
