Ploppabbles

All the lots I download, I don't really need the ploppable versions that come with the growables.

Is there a way to figure out which files are the ploppables, to delete them?

Thanks.

Sometimes yes. Some creators label their lots as grow or plop in the lot name in the file folder. These ones are easy. Some people don't, but leave part of the default lot editor lot naming system in the file name, meaning that if there is a part of the lot files (.SC4Lot files) which should be labeled something like: Lm_x_, with the _x_ part being the lot size, or the original lots size before being modified. If they completely changed the file name and did not include any easy plop or grow differentiators in the file name, the only other option is to use iLive Reader, use it to look at the .sc4lot file, as their are a few fairly easy signs about the differences, once you understand how iLive Reader works of course.

    So if the file has Lm1x2 or Lm2x2 in it, it's a ploppable?

    Good. Because I already deleted all files with LM in the name. 4.gif

    You need to get the "SC4Tool. " At http://kurier.simcityplaza.de/details.php?file=315. This is a great tool for finding out everything you want to know about your new download item. I use it on every new download to check all the specs. Plus you can change items if they are way out of line .quote>

    Great. Good to know. Thanks.
