Ploppable eye candy homes

[tbird 2]

I could have swore that I saw a set of ploppable Maxis homes on the STEX a while ago, but now going back through all the pages, I can't find them. Anybody have any clues/ links? I was thinking of using them in combination with the NAM "dirt trail" ped. plaza puzzle pieces to simulate country homes that are set back further from the streets/ roads like in some rural areas around where I live... I figured that they would work well because they don't require road connections, which would cause those nasty "No Road Connection" zots!

No, it's not in the STEX, but in the Modds and Downloads section.

Take a look at this page: https://www.simtropolis.com/modding/index.cfm?page=1&keyword=plop

No, not the ones that Ralphaelninja did- there was another one that somebody did not too long ago and I know it was on the STEX... it was houses only, I think they were only from the Chicago/ New York set...

i know they are on the STEX, beacause i have them. but i have no idea how there called, so i can't find them anymore, the closest thing i could find was here: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/index.cfm?page=2&Keyword=ploppable&type=all. but these are ploppable residential buildings. and they don't work really good, as long as you put them near an existing residential area or by just plopping them on some existing residential buildings. hope these will do untill you might find the ones you mean

@ Natuurzoon: Yeah, that's my problem! I think I went back 10-15 pages in the STEX, but I couldn't find 'em! They couldn't have been that old... As for the plops you suggested, I tried downloading those before, but the buildings wouldn't show up. Thank you, though!

i found some eye candy houses. i know there are other ones. but these don't have any residents, and the buidlings do appear.

Natuurzoon- I think those are what I was thinking of! I noticed they were put on the STEX in May- my how time flies!!! Thank you!!!

Problem- now that I installed these ploppable homes ( that use Maxis houses as props), the homes don't show up in the game. The lots plop just fine, but no buildings! I did download the Buildings As Props dats from the Maxis website, so what gives????

Check your graphics settings.  Sometimes downloading stuff from the official site will reset them to default (low).

N_O_Body: Eh...no, that wasn't it. Nothing is different settings-wise. I had the same problem when I tried downloading 6459978's ploppable rowhomes. The lots would plop w/o the buildings. I have Joerg's Airport Pack, which requires the bldgprop_vol1+2 dats (which I have), and his Maxis building terminals show up just fine...
