Scary thing is I've gone the way of lotting and loving it again with being recently accepted to BLaM.
But the troubles im running into is that with the lot im working on to re-lot is by UrbanSprawl and
its the Park Place Mall. I've figured out some basic stuff with editing like plop and income amounts with
LE Prop and figured out how to track what dependancys I have with Lot Info Gen. But i cant get the
texture files found so my lot ends up looking like nothing with out the textures. Ohh and all of this occurs
when im testing the lot in a sandbox without my plugins folder and heres what the dependacy's are as
current.
1) BSC_SG_FloraPack_Vol1.dat
2) BlaM Fire Engine One-0x6534284a-0x106aa2a2-0xf215c397.SC4Desc
3) Fiat dealer props.dat
4) SG_BestBuy.dat
5) SG_EckerdDrug.dat
6) SG_Marriott.dat
7) SG_PizzaKitchen.dat
8) SG_PlopAShopsPack4.dat
9) SG_SuperCenter02.dat
10) SWFC_construction_site-7x13.dat
11) ms family high wealth eurocar props.dat
12) ms family low wealth eurocar props.dat
So what i have done to eliminate the issues was find the files and place it with the mall and well at
least i get all the props. Heres what the Mall is supposed to look like with plugins and without plugins.
This is the good lot with all my plugins in place

This is the bad lot without my plugins in place and the only know dependancys

So any help with this is very greatful so i can figure out the texture issue. Also any ideas if some of
the dependancys are part of a pack that too would be awsome - pat
You should use SC4Tools with the dependancy scanner, using your full plugin, it will tell you which files are required
Quotefigured out how to track what dependancys I have with Lot Info Gen
Damn, how did you do ?
Hi Pat ,
Even if I would have liked a closer pic of these textures , I'm pretty sure they are from BSCTexture Pack Vol2 by citynut (STEX) .
Follow the advice from Wouanagaine about SC4Tool ... and take this occasion to learn to transit enable your Lot with it , at least the first tiles of each of your entrances so they will look connected .There is a good and simple tutorial on these forums to do that , but I don't remember where at this time ...
Anyway , great Mega-Lot for a first attempt . :thumbsup: , and I'm very pleased to see you working with LE .... &apls
I agree that you should use SC4Tool as you can use it to transit enable and also to provide a good Readme with all the dependencies including extures listed.
OK Awsome for the helpful input and here as requested closer up shot and also
what im talking about with lot info gen and how i did it no clue just clicked and
played lol, call it dumb luck then - pat
