Help finding a dependency

Hey I am unable to find a file I need for a dependency for the Jack in the Box building.  I have a brown box on the lot and I'm pretty sure it's because I don't have the file.

The file is: PEG-RT3_EHW_105.dat

I have searched the STEX in vain, even tried google and other sites but still no luck.  I'm hoping someone just knows what it is or where I can find it. 3.gif

If it helps, when I hover over the brown box it says Hong Kong Flag.

I installed the lot in question and took a look, it's only using one prop from that file, "planter7x7_centered", and you can get it in the main dat file of the "RTK3 - Recreation 2.05" download from Pegasus' site, "simpeg.com/forum". You have to register to download. Many old (and current) lots use props from various Peg lots I've found, and they're generally only available from that site.

Neither "RT3" nor "EHW" rang any bells and I've been through Peg's site thoroughly before, so it was probably a file that doesn't exist anymore from an older version of the RTK.

I highly recommend the SC4Tool for scanning plugins and dependencies, never found anything else like it, it's not perfect but it gives you a way to dynamically determine what, exactly, your lots are and are not missing, one by one. Dependencies in ReadMe's are almost never explicitly incorrect, but still incomplete to some degree a disturbing amount of the time I've found, and so a tool like this is incredibly helpful.

It may be a good idea to read the "readme" where generally it is told where the dependencies can be found. You need to download the various mega props packs, found here and on BSC LEX (You will need to register). Use the search functionin the STEX for props. That should solve your problems.
