Go back and read the download pages, then download the dependencies if any. 

 

Also, when you move a custom content lot into your plugins you have to be sure to get not only the lot, but also the model and the descriptors if any.  You need to follow any instructions that came with it as well.

 

Keep your downloaded .zip files in a separate <you>\Documents\SC4Downloads folder with subfolders by category or author.  Expand them in place there following the instructions (if any).  Move only data base files into your plugins in a similar structure (not necessarily totally identical). 

 

Only .SC4LOT, .SC4DESC, .SC4MODEL, .DAT, and .DLL files go in the plugins folder under <you>\Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins\

 

Any other files are strictly documentation and should not clutter up your Plugins folder.

 

Also, go to the top of this list and have a skim through the pinned threads which are mostly there for beginners.
