Brown boxes for rail over road (and other things)
Dogpound2 posted a topic in NAM & Transit Networks
What files am i missing here? i hate looking at this -
I just started playing SC4 after adding a handful of mods and I noticed some buildings and roads are appearing with brown boxes or these red and green boxes. Has anyone else dealt with this before? I'm wondering what the best course of action is from here to clean this issue up -
Hello all! I'm brand new to Simtropolis but am returning to the best city builder game from a long break. Long story short, I've downloaded a ton of mods for the GOG version of the game. One is the BSC Seaports mod. I've spent all morning installing the dependencies in a way I thought was correct. Most things look right when I plop, but there are two issues: 1. Some random boxes show up on some lots (missing/misplaced dependencies?) 2. The BSC Custom Seaports 1 through 9 are just blank paved spots. (missing/misplaced dependencies?) Screenshots of the issue are below, as well as the general structure of my Plugins folder. I've looked through the BSC Seaports Readme, the SC4 Devotion BSC Seaports support thread, and I'm all out of ideas. I ran the cleanitol file but it says I'm missing dependencies that I know I have downloaded. Can anyone help me? Plugins Structure: The Problem, Visible:

Hello, First post on here. Thanks in advance for the help. I've just downloaded the BSC functional sea port mod and although it works, it builds stuff. When I build one of the upgradable seaports, I get brown boxes. Does anyone know how to fix it? The second issue is, does the package handling facility in the airports need to be on the coast or directly connected to a port? it has cranes on the bottom edge and it says seaport when you query it? Any ideas? Regards Pappasmurf

Good morning simtropolis, Hoping to get some guidance here. I downloaded the TL-SCF-Heretic Modular Regional Airport TL-SCF-Heretic Modular Regional Airport - Lots - Simtropolis posted by @tariely and downloaded all dependencies. However, when plopping it - I get brown boxes galore... All of the brown boxes are titled 'Street Light' - so did some digging. I noticed in the readme the street lights have to load last - so changed the file name to 'zzz____Tariely Mods' and retried - still brown boxes. Went into that file and renamed the individual files to be 'zzz____original file name' and still same issue. Maybe one of the authors, contributors or someone can assist?

Hello everyone, Recently downloaded SimCity 4 again and I am trying to get the SFBT Street Tree Mod to work. I have downloaded all the correct dependencies I believe and I have read the readme file carefully. Here's a screenshot of my plugins folder so you can all see. I read on an older post that you needed to put all the dependencies in the same folder as the street tree mod. Any help is much appreciated!!

I have been cleaning up my plugin file and finally ran cleanitrol on it. A lot of files where deleted, everything seemed ok then suddenly new houses being built come is as brown boxes, they are labeled a 01, i 01, d 01, d 02, f 01 b 01, and so on. I do not know what houses these are and cannot figure out what dependency this points to, I have gone over all my major props and reloaded some nothing works. I also have a brown box for a a 1 beach resort, I cant figure out what that is. I have been able to fix almost all the other brown box problems but this has me stumped.

Hi there, i´m installing SC4 on a new HDD. After patching, installing NAM39 and the "must to have", i startet by installing the Lots from Methew (ok, the Hodrun one from SG and the Gabarage Cute from Peang)... After i installed some of his Lots, i´v got this... and thats for sure not normal... I installed only some Lots/Bats of Mattb325, nothing more. From SG only the Smiley Water Tower and the Underwaterconstraction...thing (im not in the Mode to translate it, i am on my Way to Rest...)

My SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition's rush hour buildings are becoming brown boxes. If any fix is available please inform. You may also ask for some more info. I think i need the rush hour data files. I have the rush hour buildings prop file, bit i don't know how to implement it. I tried to use it through sc4 lot editor and pin, but both are having errors. The former shows "unable to read registry" and the latter shows some python log files. Please help.

Hi, I've a problem with two Christmas specials. 1. Christmas Plaza https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1947-christmas-plaza/ 2. Nexis Xmas Magic https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1884-nexis-xmas-magic/ I only get brown boxes instead of the Christmas trees. It seems that both of them don't have any dependencies.

Brown boxes on SM2 Intermodal Terminal - missing dependency?
lather30 posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content
I've got a bit of a problem with SM2's excellent Intermodal Terminal. Despite the fact that I've downloaded and installed all of the listed dependencies, I'm getting three brown boxes in the upper right corner of the S3 piece (See attached picture). Thinking that I may have missed one of the dependencies, I downloaded and installed them all a second time, but still got the same problem. Has anyone had the same issue, or have any idea what plug-in I may be missing?- 13 Replies

If you want to get rid of those cumbersome brown boxes that keep showing in your cities no matter how painstakingly you search for your dependencies, simply unzip this small (28kB) file, place it in your plugins folder, and watch it instantly clean your cities from those brown eyesores! CAUTION: As this mod makes the brown boxes invisible, you will no longer see when some prop is missing. So it is recommended that you always check your dependencies lists carefully and, if in doubt, open your downloads in the LE to find out whether all the featured props are actually showing.- 10 Comments

I opened a city, and received this message: I see that someone took the trouble to list the hexadecimal codes for each of the plugin packs, and read that the nine-digit number needed only to be converted to its hexadecimal equivalent. The problem is that the number shown here converts to 65D866B, which isn't listed on the chart. In fact, all of the codes listed have more than the seven digits listed here.

All of a sudden I'm getting Brown Boxes in an industry lot. The lot's name is Dead Forest Paper. The Boxes are named "Barrel of Laughs" and "Jungle Drums". Did a search within all the files, no luck. Spend at least four hours searching. I'm bummed out. I hope some kind heart will rescue me.

so I installed this mod, and so far I love it.... ....except for one thing: some roads, such as this avenue on the picture, have brown boxes for streetlights. did I do something wrong?

Brown Boxes: Can Anyone Help Me With This?
thirstydeer posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
I've been off the game for quite a while, and am trying to get back into it. I'm trying to figure something out I've installed some mods (I provided the list below) and am getting a problem when I start working on a city. I can't figure out why I'm getting those "boxes". Here are the mods I've installed: Extra Cheats Plugin Free Grass Park God Terraforming in Mayor Mode High SPeed Rail Project Jackpot Lottery 2.0 Jobs Doubler Landfill Eraser Mod Maxis Tree Replacement Mod No Mansions Mod ONLY Dashed TuLep Mod Ontario RHW Textures SFBT Street Tree Mod SimFox Chestnut I think it has to do with the Maxis Tree Replacement Mod. I did make sure I downloaded the packs needed for it to work. Any help is appreciated. -

hey all I have NAM 34 full install. Sim City 4 deluxe fully patched and working. Just attempted to build High Speed Rail and all I get is brown boxes. I plop a starter piece then drag monorail through it and delete starter piece. I've also tried keeping the starter piece. Happens no matter which direction. I have tried re-installing NAM and no help there. So anybody know what might be the problem? Do I need to download something to fix it? I have searched here and not found anything close to my problem. HELP!
