MTP Addon Pack - Dependencies and brownboxes

hello!

 I downloaded Paeng's MTP Addon Pack. Some of the lots are giving me issues, for example, the Pedestrian Bridge and Observation Tower. Upon first installing it, I could see the bridge and the tower on those lots, but something seemed off, also was missing some elements from Dead Woods. I realized I was missing some dependencies, so I installed them. The Dead Woods worked, but the bridge on Pedestrian Bridge and the tower on the Observation Tower dissapeared, they were just dirt lots. I decided to throughly check the dependencies listed for the MTP Addon Pack and realized I had some missing. I installed them, but now the lots are worst! The bridge and tower are there, but they are covered in brown boxes. 

 

Can someone help me find a solution? Or are there dependencies known to clash with one another? All help appreciated.

    Thanks! I have all those dependencies already.

     

    Thing is, the observation tower building didn't show, just an empty lot. So I really combed thru all the dependencies, and now the building is there but it's surrounded with all those brown boxes (that weren't there before). Trying to figure out if one tree dependency is overriding another one.

    Try to reinstall your plugins. Don't forget that Peg's plugins is often installed to PEGPROD. So, remove that and install it simply by dragging that folder to the Plugins folder.

    Speaking of dependency override, why don't you try this thing?

    So install it, run, and select Overrides to see which overriding plugins. You can also select other options like Missing Deps to see missing dependencies.

    Thanks for recommending te DataNode. Although i havent been able to fix the problem with the brown boxes on the MTP addons, I was able to identify a lot of duplicates in my files. It's an interesting tool for sure!
