Hi, not sure this is the right board for this, but i was wondering if there is a way, when browinsg SC4 Lots on the STEX, to further limit it e.g. to only show growable Lots?

I might be wrong but I believe there is no such option (yet?), so you'll just have to check it on your own. There is a possibility to use numerous filters when searching STEX but I'm not entirely sure if growables fall into it...

I believe you can also use tags to obtain results for growables. Be warned, however, that when using this method, you may actually get results for all possible content that has "growable" tag attached to it, even if it's not a BAT...

The "SimCity 4" vanilla Opera House is the most evil thing in existence. Avoid.

Right now we're undergoing some changes to add categories that we hope will help users to more easily find the content they are looking for. Whilst this doesn't specifically include growables, we do have categories for Residential, Commercial and Industrial, the bulk of the files there will be growables, although Ploppable versions of the same will be amongst them also.

Tags are a relatively new feature in the grand scheme of things, whilst you'd hope anything tagged with Growable would indeed by a growable lot, I can't think why anything else would fit that description, you may find that many STEX entries simply don't have tags, especially those over 5 years old. As such, you may find the categories an easier method to find what you are looking for.

Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

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.

New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.
