It's hard to make out, but it looks like the default roundabout pond, and they stuck a tree in it. Or in front of it.

 

I think by Ryan's looking for the ped malls with the trees, not the fountain. By "circle," I believe he means the planter used for the trees.

Does anyone know what this plaza/pedmall with tree inside the circle is?

 

I've never seen something like this before, too. This looks like a custom relot to me. If you know who put this screenshot online, you might want to consider asking them where they have it from, and if they want to share it with you. Perhaps they even made it themselves, anyway.

Other than that, there are other plugin packs with trees on plazas available (but not with the pine tree, perhaps):

And, if you can forgive me a little self-advertising:

@Ryan Ghostling  Hi, you can make a lot in the LotEditor with SimFox trees

especially Eucaliptus, and Simgoober props https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=746 especially SG_Prop_PlantBorder_Round4x4 so you can have a lot without texture base like this one with the help of iLiveReader.

On the other hand, I'm not aware of problems with some files but I think there is a problem with SimFox pack 2 because only 5 trees out of 7 appear as props in the LE. In the Mayor Mod all is ok they are all there !

Maybe someone could check this dat file and see if there's something SimFox forgot, because I had to redo a prop with the SimFox model to make this .
Thanks in advance.

Hello, fellow SC4 players. Can someone identify which dependencies am I missing from this stations?  It's a long list that I'm pretty sure revised carefully one by one, still got this little colorful present (I believe the ones in the right should be boxes but since I have a mod that delete them, they don't appear either). A point in the right direction would be much appreciated, thanks in advance

Hm.. it's my lot.

I suppose you've downloaded the Heretic Essentials (see that colourfull box), which is good, although it's refering additional dependencies (some of the WMP prop packs among others), which original location have been changed (the original wmp site no longer available), also those prop packs were merged into mega prop packs.

As I see you need the following two WMP Mega Prop packs to cover the missing props:

Eventually all the readme's and the download pages will be updated, but currently I'm bit busy with other stuffs.

EDIT:

Also you need the model and desc file from this upload:

Thank you very much, Tyberius, I was missing the Railway props from WMP  your lots are stunning, I'm grateful that I can use them properly now

The rowhouses are Don Miguel's lovely Cast Iron lofts, though the lot appears to be custom:

Can somebody please tell me where to find the AOKI building?

 

[Persephone 5]

Hi, looking for the old 'rusic' 'rural' train station that was just a plonk down plot on a regular train line? anything would do, a train station that takes up no more space than the train line... it used to be very popular in the original lot share of Simcity4000.... i am currently going through the download files, but havent found one

[TheOlympics 546]

I am looking for the Park Lane Hotel...If it can even be found anymore.

I'm no good in finding links at all,. But I use the greenroof one lane station a lot, search for marrast on sc4 devotion (LEX), The Chinese site also has several small one lane stations, including countryside stations.

That's all I can do, sorry, but if you search you'll find for sure, because there is many around.

Hm... 

This one will be a tricky one. I'm looking for this FiRE - Fire & Rescue Education from Becca (RebaLynnTS aka. BEX aka. RLM Production), in a version which was directly downloaded from PLEX and not from here. So I'm looking for private collections, from people who got their copy from PLEX and not from the CLUB files. This version is missing either some dependencies, or it was updated back then and missing some additional models and props. 
Paeng's readme/description for the expansion suggests that it should contain some firefighters models:

Quote

* Firefighters
The same guys (5 Models) as included with the FiRE core lots, but untimed and freely ploppable.

You can see those firefighters on the above image, but the set what we have doesn't contain those models and props, the lots are empty and the Paen'g firefighter MMP gives brownbox on them. If it comes from a different prop set, that would be awesome to know, from which.
Also I suspect that it would have come with readme originally, while we don't have that one either. 

Thanks in advance!

I can't create an account on the sc4devotion.com/forums site and asked a few days ago on their Discord page.

There are embedded download links and embedded photos  I can't access to only forum members

I see some mention of this item here but can't see the photos --- https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=160.0

BSC RPK by BSC is some Waterfront Terrace Facade but It looks like there are multiple versions but missing pieces.  Is there more puzzle pieces for this

Along with the Grand Incan Resort Hotel, it uses that same Terrace.  This seems all I have but some - 2 have darker Red Tile, and majority of Wide Brick and only with narrow paths.

Is there more puzzle pieces to play with this Terrace ?

 

[Murcutt 25]

Where can I find these bridge pieces? I have found this on YouTube but the link in the discription does not work anymore...

What happened with the Newman Inc RPK Campgrounds ?

The link on this Japan Wiki site links to here but file removed and only 1 mention of the pack on google and no further info.

Is this RPK an incomplete project ?? Some of those puzzle pieces I posted above seem messed up and leave seem lines on the red brick BSC park - which never happens with any of the normal BSC compliant park set pieces.

Here link to the RPK  Campgrounds

Many of CityNut's (Newman INC) creations currently only available exclusively on the LEX DVD (which is no longer available). They used to be on this exchange, but when most of the BSC creations were moved to their own site (SC4 Devotion and LEX), these were included. Although somehow most of the Newman INC creations never made it to LEX, they ended up on the DVD only. And these campgrounds are included as well. 

I can not promise anything for sure. There are plans to make the contents of the LEX DVD available, but currently there isn't too many people who have the time to check/update and upload those contents. I'm mainly doing a background work extracting the installer based uploads on LEX and repackage them as folder/zip based, but I'm also doing heavy legacy maintenance work here on STEX regarding the currently semi-lost SimCity Polska, WMP, PEGProd and Paeng creations and we are talking about thousands of files. 

If nobody droped by in the meantime from the BSC/LEX side to take care of those LEX DVD elements (currently I can not think of anybody who would do that organization project easily), then eventually, I'm gonna make the comparsion and organization of them, but I cannot say a date when that will happen. Probably not in this year. Maybe not in the next year either. Although I can think of a scennario, where some of those missing stuffs eventually would show up rather sooner than later.

I can't believe I can't find this DVD. It seems no one uses Bit Torrent and even the original Motherland of binaries NNTP Newsgroups. 

Can someone upload stuff to NNTP please ? I know lot of stuff is outdated, but this is crazy hunting stuff.

There is a gazillion Newsgroups but there 2 active Binary groups for SimCity that will accept uploads.

Alt.Binaries.games.SimCity

Alt.Binaries.SimCity

Unfortunately, that would be in violation of the STEX and LEX usage policies. Sharing this kind of stuff via torrents (at least, without authorization) would get a person banned pretty quickly.

[Max4k 721]

As long as it's not some kind of International Espionage, Snuff or super Illegal activity, it's physically impossible to remove it from NNTP. It's a neutral zone, Im not sure what policies are violated when an Anonymous account name can just dump Gigs of data with no strings attached associated with STEX or LEX.

I have a Usenet Account, so, I'll just check from time to time and see if anyone posts stuff there.

I'll just be vague but blunt because I know this is a touchy subject. Obviously there are some things people do not want shared, but heck with cherry picking and splitting hairs.

Stuff can be uploaded by anyone there and no one will know who it is.. I can't even register on that other forum and no one seems to be active on the site to really care about new accounts on that forum. Im sure thousands of people have been trying to get on that forum in last several years, so heck with them and just post stuff and communicate on NNTP

I find it very fishy a bunch of programmers, can't lock a forum for archive only and just create a new message board.

Okay, well at the risk of pushing this thread a little too far off-topic, I'll just quickly say that I don't think you're going to have any luck getting someone to upload this stuff to NNTP. The people who have that amount of content and who have organized it in a manageable way have been a part of this community for a long time. I don't think any of them are going to feel comfortable violating the policies of the STEX and LEX without getting permission from the broader community or from specific creators.

There are a number of people in the community who believe that it should be easier to share this kind of content -- myself included -- but what you're describing would be extremely taboo. A number of creators have stated strongly that they don't want their work shared this way, so it would be considered very disrespectful to share their work via NNTP without getting permission first. I think it would be one thing if you wanted to suggest a change in the rules, but I'd be careful about asking people to violate one of the biggest rules on the site.

[Max4k 721]

I understand and respect what you say. I was making a broad statement as well and know there tons of other stuff out there that is not exclusive.  I'm just little shocked how everything is guarded with internal inner circles.

Im used to the Unreal Tournament community where everything is open and easy to get. There someone in Japan hosting an .ftp server with 1TB+ of stuff for anyone to d/l and has every version and revision of that specific project.

Thank you Tyberius! Do you know if similar brigdes are available also for roads over other transportation ways or are there only bridges for train over... available?

Brownboxes and more !

Usualy, there´s no real problem with the maxis growable lot´s. Working on my Middle East instalations I noticed some brown boxes and props missing. Repetive as they are I examinded them with SC4 Tool dependecies checker. Some show problems, other´s not . Masai mosque show several related to tree´s or a car props. Growable part show´s eather one.  Industry none and some agruculture show tree props missing

Searched for missing props I tried the SFBT essentials and street mod, wich seem unnescesary as without the boxes are there even wel. CP Painted desert mod may be the course, all files are installed and the modified  tile is loaded without problems.  Buildingprops, Porkyprops and BSC props and textures installed. So what is causing these boxes and flags ?

Sincerely yours

Kschmidt
