Can't find it?... Ask here!

[CorinaMarie 29,605]

Hiya. I'm trying to patch up a broken linky in one of our STEX descriptions. Here's what I'm looking for SPOT_v-rc101.dat. As you can see that is a SimPeg file which is no longer available. We do have SPOT (Simpeg Plop Orientation Tool) here on the STEX, but it contains SPOT_v-rc100.dat.

So, if anyone has the updated version please attach it to a post and I'll fix up the old, broken linky.

Great! Thank you.

I've updated the SPOT file with your new one. (I did rename it with a v101 to make it different.) Also, I updated a STEX file which referenced the SimPeg linky.

I am looking for a 1x1 Tree (filler) lot in the Park menu. Old lot, maybe 2004, with Maxis hardwood trees, probably by Peg. I went through Peg's stuff on SC4D but couldn't find it. Everytime you plopped it, it changed the composition of the trees, but only leavy trees and only maxis trees. Loved that lot, we could plop a whole forest  with these 1x1s.

Thanks

@mrbisonm

Until the experts get here, you might want to look at the linkys in this thread: Any Good Ploppable Trees? and see if you recognize any of them.

[kingofsimcity 5,739]

@mrbisonm: I believe that is indeed PEG's old random woods set. Used these a ton back in the day!

Thanks, but seen it before when I was searching for treemods and treefillers. Unfortunatly it isn't the one I am looking for.

I don't know if it is indeed this one, I will have to see tonight and try them. Maybe it is, because at the time I downloaded it, it was a simple 1x1 Park lot uploaded to the STEX, but then again, that was long time ago and the STEX wasn't a year old yet. lol

If you don't see me here tonight, then this will be it and I thank you tremendously, if it ain't, I will come back and ask for it again.

Much appreciated , ya all!

For parks and fillers that are generic and light on dependencies, I'd recommend the SFBT Park sets. They come in three variations for low, medium, and high wealth, and they only require the SFBT Essentials and nothing else. They are modular, and especially the medium and high wealth sets can be used to complement in-game lots because they use the same driveway textures. Placement indicators show what you are about to plop when you have the lot on your mouse cursor so you won't have to wonder which way a path curve will turn (the indicators vanish after a short while and never appear again).

I couldn't find the medium one, but found the following Park Set that I think is by one of the authors and contains park pieces from that set.
 

However, I don't like the lot statistics for it. For example, 1x1 park has only a $1 monthly cost, unlike the $5 monthly cost of similar 1x1 tiles from the vanilla game.

I had a look online about how to change lot stats and read about Ilives Reader, but when I tried to run the program it said it wouldn't run on my computer.

I'd bet my money on the seasonal woods from PEG, not the Random Wood...

Let us know, which one it is...

I used this set for a long time. But that was eight, nine years ago... Nowadays the way to get nice woods would be to use MMP trees. I for one use MMP flora, a HD replacement mod for the Maxis Trees, and I found my perfect lot for this use in the BigPaengTheory-Pack. There is a tree set, that if you change the direction every plop, you can't see it is a lot and not MMP. If you want to see a pic, let me know!

I doubt that it was a SFBT lot, but the 1$ fee sounds familiar, so I'll try it tomorrow also.

I'm pretty sure that you lost your money on that one, because it wasn't a seasonal lot. Just like I said above, it is a 1x1 Maxis Hardwood tree parklot with a low plop- and  maintenance cost. But I will have a look at it, never know, right? I used to plop hundreds of them in each of my cities, best filler lot I ever had.

Of course the MMP trees are the best, the only thing is that they need a lot of time to look well and that's cut in half with that treelot filler that I am looking for.

Thank you both, I'll get back to you after I have tried these three recommondations.

Found it !

 

And the Winner is................kingofsimcity. Bearing his name with reason....lol

It is simulated in that  PEG Random Woods v206  Pack     

And it is the 1x1 with texture parklot that I had before, it still is as it was, except that it was an only upload at the time. Now with the other 3 lots that were added, I will be able (thanks to kingofsimcity) continue to create those fillerspaces that I always made wonderful looking. Thank You all for helping me out to find one of my favourite lots again. Much appreciated, and the next time you're in Quebec, let me know, I'll buy you beer!

I'm looking for a basic 3x3 park lot that can act as an alternative to the vanilla Large Park Green with its lake.

[simlacroix 274]

I have 2 enquiries, 1st one:

Where can I find these fences?


2nd one: I have downloaded every single station from Matt's new stations, I have every single dependency, and yet...


Thanks!

[Tyberius06 12,189]

@simlacroix

It would have been better if you show it from the other side, since the brown boxes are from there. I checked the lot with the listed dependencies and it's working properly. It has only 3 dependencies+NAM. CP Mega Props vol 01, BSC Textues 01 and the Multi Station Prop Pack from Matt. What I can think of that you are using a tree replacement mod, which replaces CP's trees and there you have a missing dependency, which appears on this lot. 

Sadly I don't know the answere for the first question about the fences.

- Tyberius

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Or maybe you are using an outdated version of CP's mega prop pack?

[Mcnamara 1]

How you doing guys?

 

Im getting back on track to play SC4, Im not looking for challenges, I love playing just to make it easy going. Anyways, I am looking for just one mod in particular I used to love but cant seem to find it.

The mod gives a increased starting budget but not only that. What I liked the most is that the revenue you perceive is way higher than normal, so taxes can be super low and will always make a profit no matter what.

 

I have been looking for over an hour here and online in general but cant seem to find it or remember the name. Could somebody point me in the right direction please? I looked for a similar thread but couldnt find it as specific as this.

Hi Mcnamara,

While I'm only aware of this mod and that mod which do the opposite as you've described, I've moved your topic over to where we are now.

It was fine where you posted it originally, but in here "Can't find it" is frequently followed by many people with specific knowledge of SC4 custom content. So that way I feel it'll give a greater opportunity for others to see your request and post suggestions.

----------

So, I just couldn't submit this post without putting in some effort to try and help you, and that led me to these two:

• Azul's Money Modd
• Azul's MAX Money

(I don't see any mention about monthly income though.)

But then I came across this one:

• Easy difficulty with Hard income

Which based on the description sounds just what you've described. Could this be it?

First of all, thank you for pointing me in the right direction, I will now use this thread for further questions like this one and also thank you for the recommendations.

Number 2, I found it! I was looking for the Simoleon RH mod!!! found here --> https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21312-simoleon-rh/

Thanks, in the end, I read all the dependencies again and chose to reinstall the NAM, it seems that did the trick, it's funny for I did have the last version but go figure. In fact, it was a very weird missing dependency for you can only see it at the back, once you changed the view, the boxes were only seen from the front, really odd. 

It's ok about the fences, someone might appear or not, the only nice ones available are the soundwalls but I did love these ones.

No worries, I'd keep searching. I need ploppables fences and I fear these might be modded ones from props.

[mrbisonm 1,620]

Have a small problem with a treeprop. Since I can't find the lotname I cannot search and find the lot to see what exact prop is missing. Does anyone knopw where to find this parking lotset? Or at least know who did it?

 

Then I have another question. I remember using a tool in mayor or godmode that created rain to fill small terraindepths above the basic waterlevel to make ponds and lakes or to create bridges on dry land. Although this water did not save, it was fun using it and create another world of ponds/ lakes/bridges up in mountains. I can't remember its name nor where to find it. Where can I find this?

Thanks. much appreciated
