Take one of them out, and try it. If it works then, swap them and try again. One of them is causing problems. Make sure you also have BldgProps_Vol1 and _Vol2.

    Read the readme for the Industrial Replacement MOD. :) It replaces all Maxis Industrial Lots. You need to bulldoze all Maxis lots in all your cities first before installing it.

    If you don't want it to replace anything. You can open Lot editor and get a different TGI number for all 250 lots. It is very tedious but if you cannot afford to bulldoze all Maxis Industrial Lots it might be your only choice.

    Or, you can PM the creator (TWrecks) and petition for a non replacement set (if it exists).

    It is a general dependency. Everyone needs it to see Maxis Buildings as Props.

    You don't have to do anything but put those dat.files in your plugins. It's a general dependency of buildings props in SimCity 4.

    Have you ever seen Some kind like a Brown Box appeared instead of building within your city, sir..?? If you have, then the absence of bldgprop.dat files is mostly the cause. Though, not all buildings need these... :)
