If it blocks Maxis Industrial, then the base set of IRM will also be prevented from growing, since IRM uses the same IDs. Then again, one has to ask, if you are looking to block the Maxis Industrial Buildings altogether, why would you also install IRM only to block it?

Adding to the complexity, if you use CAM, I heard the Industrial uses a new, unique set of IDs, which of course the CAM version of IRM would presumably have used too. In this scenario, there would be no point installing a blocker for Industry, since those same Maxis lots are already being suppressed by CAM.

I think that's the blocker I myself use, if so you should be able to remove or not install the Industrial Blockers, whilst blocking those things you don't want. That would allow IRM to continue working if you don't use CAM.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

    I’d have to double-check the CAM Industrial lots, but it looks like no this mod won’t function with CAM :Edit: CAM does use the same Maxis IDs for buildings and lots for Industry, so actually yes this mod should block them.

    Can you just confirm you are using the correct CAM version of IRM?

    Yes, I'm using CAM-ified IRM available here on ST. I have the IRM_ModifiedToWorkWithCAM_A.dat.
