My plugins folder got to be so big that SC4 became unplayable on my PC so I have cleaned it out and am starting fresh by downloading the files I really want to have. I downloaded the "CSX Farm - Sweet Lelanie" at http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=206 . I made sure that I also downloaded the dependencies listed in the lot description. (A lot of the dependencies in the original list have been moved into MEGA files so the list in the lot description is the best reference.) I then checked this lot using SC4PIM and found that I am missing the dependencies for 5 props (IIDs: AEAC92C1, 8EABCFA0, 6EACB743, 2E9D3585, AND CEAB757). I tried wsearching the forum to see if anyone else has had this problem and didn't see anything even similar.
Could someone check their file using SC4PIM and let me know what I have missed? Looking at the picture shown in the popup window I think these props are for some trees (best guess).
Thanks for any help I can get on this.
I am pretty sure you are missing the Irrigation Canals: http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=891 (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=891)
I would imagine you dont need the Lots that come with that dl (or the dependancies)
PIMX says it finds 7 props that the lot needs in there, but that is another story.
If that does not work maybe you can post a picture of your lot in LE-X? Good luck
Thank you for the response Lowkee33. I did see that I needed the irrigation canals had already downloaded the updated set. The props I am missing are in the PIM-X dependency report just above the SwampTree that is just above the props from the irrigation canal group.
Here is an image from LE_X: (https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg530.imageshack.us%2Fimg530%2F7180%2Flelanie.jpg&hash=98d1ea1c1d3297357f95e01f3ce1004194ee2bcd)
I think the missing props are those in the dirt areas of the image.
Are you sure? Look at the picture from your link. You are missing the canals. Perhaps the lot itself is outdated, and you need to delete the old props and add the new ones.
You are right Lowkee33. The canal props are missing. I didn't have file "SG_IrrigationCanals.dat" which is part of the download that you referenced.
I now have an explanation for my trouble but am not sure how to proceed. The cleanitol file that is part of the updated ditchset, http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2249 (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2249) , removes SG_IrrigationCanals,dat along with other files. The prop exemplars for the canal pieces are part of that DAT but are not included in the replacement files.
I checked the old SG_IrrigationCanals.dat file with ilive reader and found that it has 4 people fishing props and 5 flora props that got moved into file SG_IrrigationCanals2004Props that is part of the updated ditch set. But I also found that SG_IrrigationCanals.dat has 13 canal prop exemplars that did not make it into any of the files in the updated ditch set. Just for grins I copied the prop exemplars into a new DAT file that I made available for SC4PIM and ran a new dependency check. PIM shows my file as the reference for the props but the Models were missing (I found out they are also part of SG_IrrigationCanals.dat ).
It looks like I will have to keep the old SG_IrrigationCanals.dat file if I want to have the Sweet Lelanie lot even though that means I will have some duplicated props and models in the new ditch set.
I wonder if anyone can contact SIMGOOBER and pass this on that the Sweet Lelanie lot uses props that didn't get migrated when the ditch set was updated. I'm not sure if any other lots are affected.
