How to change the modded building that appears in game permanently?

[Popme 2]

Hello! As the titles says, I wanna ask a question about changing the name of the building that appears as growable lot in game permanently. I know I can change it manually one by one, but for a city that already have 200+ building, it's a quite tedious. Besides, that method only change the name of the building temporarily.

I tried to edit the building name using reader but it only works for the building which has SC4DESC. The problem is most building I'm trying to edit only have SC4LOT and editing the name in those exemplar doesn't seem to change anything. Can someone help me?

Hello, and sorry for the late response. Every lot must have two exemplars somewhere - one for the lot and one for the building. To change it in-game, you'll need to change the property in the building exemplar. Normally these are installed in the same location next to each other, but since it looks like you've installed them via sc4pac, they're in a little different location. See the file \Plugins\100-props-textures\bsc.bat-props-mattb325-small-modern-house-pack.1.sc4pac\BSC BATProps Mattb325 Small Modern House Pack.dat. We moved this file into the dependencies folder to make it much easier to process any other file that also decided to use these models, like a relot.
