    Upon uninstallation of some poorly written uninstaller, I lost every file in my plugins folder...effectively disabling cities that have been growing for 2 real life years! 

    I've tried piecing my plugins back together from back-ups I've kept, but I am still missing many, and have loaded many I wasn't actually using resulting in performance issues. 

    When I load a city, it tells me that I am missing some plug-in packs, but gives me only a series of numbers telling me which ones. 

    Is there any way to find the plug-ins and dependencies that my cities need without merely guessing?

    Thanx everyone!

    Welcome to the conversation.

    Boy!  That is a problem I would rather not face.  Your best bet is to open the cities, find the brown boxes, query them as to what lot they are, then download the missing stuff.

    I don't know of any way to fix this other than depending on backups.
