Aww man. Ok. So I downloaded the Academy Awards Theater, and I plopped it into my city, then it was just a blank spot...so searching in these excellent forums, I realized that I needed the Lot Editor thing. So...I got it, and the Academy Awards theater appeared just fine (it's pretty good btw)...now, I decided to play at that city where the theater was located...and what a surprise! It's a blank lot again! Only this time, I get a message saying Warning: the following plugins are not here...blah blah...Plugins with random numbers...you can still play except some graphics may be screwed. Blah blah. What do I do? I downloaded the Lot Editor again but it didnt help!

The Lot Editor is not what you are missing.  You are missing one or more of the dat files necassary to support the lot.  Generally called dependencies.  You ususlly can find what these are by reading the readme file, if that is missing, on the page where you downloaded the lot should have the list.

It was working in the beginning! I don't think the theater had any dependencies! This window just popped up and said, Warning: YOu need the necessary plugins Something like that.

That usually happens when you plop a lot, and then remove it, or one of it's dependencies, from the plugin folder.

Dear BubbaGump,

You should put these two files in your plugins and it should be solved
