Looking to identify these icons..

HandsOn

Back with another (inane?) question - two actually:

Can someone identify where the icons in the two park menu examples come from? The first image is a series of traffic blockers. The second image shows empty texture lots (I've actually plopped four, but the top-left and bottom-right do not show any textures).

I want to remove them from the plug-in folder, but search as I might (Vista Explorer searching sucks), I cannot locate the associated DAT files. They maybe part of a mega pack, off course. If so, how do I remove them from my already stuffed menu - if that is at all possible?

Thanks for your help.

I have not seen these before, so not sure where they are, however, if they turn out to be in a mega pack, you can simply open the dat file in the reader, delete the lot exemplar (and possibly the building exemplar for the lot), re-index, rebuild directory, and save.

The Traffic Blockers will be in their own DAT unless you have DAT Packed your plugins.  From the pictures is rather difficult to actually know which ones you've installed.  Your probably going to have to search for them in your plugins folder to remove them.

As for the ones in the park menu.  From what I can tell, maybe those are from a prop pack test lot.  There are some prop packs out there that contain a test lot for the creator of the prop pack and he/she may have forgotten to remove it from the DAT file.  To remove this you would actually have to search out that specific prop pack and remove the Lot, Building Description and Icon from the DAT to remove it from the folder.

I think HandsOn is looking for the name of the files

The icons in the first image are from some lots that are on the STEX, which happen to be traffic blocking lots that block specific traffic types.

If he gives the name of the lot(s) from the menu for the second image, we might be able to figure out where the lots are from.

I found the traffic blocker DAT: AllControl....dat, but the other's just show "Open Grass Lot" or some such in the menu, and that's like looking for a few straws in the growing heystalk
