Dependencies are specified in the download document for the things you download... or sometimes it is listed on the page where you made the download. You will have to track them down for items YOU downloaded.. they are not the same for all lots.

Welcome to Simtropolis!!

Sadly if you have downloaded loads your just going to have to look through but it is likely to be something to do with rails...

You said you downloaded the NAM.

Did you also download the NAM Essentials?

Also if you find your networks not working with the NAM, which traffic simulator did you choose?

The brown boxes are related to the content you downloaded other than NAM. As the others have mentioned, check the instructions or Readme files for "Dependencies." The NAM by itself, would not cause the box problem. Also, if you downloaded the newest NAM, you wouldn't need the NAM Essentials.

If the boxes are appearing along the rails, you might have downloaded a mod for catenaries along the tracks that would require other files. Or if they appear when placing stations, you'll need the dependencies for the stations.

    Next time, instead of uninstalling, and reinstalling, just delete the contents of you plugins folder found in: My Documents/Sim City 4

    It's also possible some of the plugins were corrupted while downloading. It did happened to me once.

    Maybe u should reinstall everything and then get the NAM essentials. I think that would help.
