Title: CS$$$ stage 13 CAMeLots
Post by: john88088 on February 07, 2008, 01:03:33 PM
hi - the readme file for these lots does not point to the correct url for these dependencies:

# ks_jpn MEGA Props Vol04 - absolutely nothing can be found at the NGT website for this file ???
# COBALTTOWER001 - absolutely nothing can be found at the NGT website for this file ???
# IoliteSpire - located

can anyone help with this

thanks - john




ok this one CrystalPile  is not working (link to main ngt website plus only 3 models avail in commerical download section). have tracked down nhp ks_jpn camelots installs and ks_jpn props volume installs on my computer which are running again but if anyone knows about these individual models please tell - thanks




I merged your two posts!
Cheers, RippleJet

All models by ks_jpn are available in mega packs here at our own LEX. :thumbsup:

Consult this thread for more details on where to download the models:

I'm working on making Cleanitols for each of the models needed for the CAM Starter Packs. You can find them here: http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=3639.0
These will point you directly to the zip file for the Japanese sites, as it can be somewhat confusing.

just one more thing - is there some kind of tutorial on the cleanitol thing as i am completely miffed as to how a text file is used to remove outdated files??? and is this process requiring manual deletion.

i haven't used this except for one "Cobb's" bats as had dwnloaded them previously from simtropolis as individual files before redownloading a revised pack here on the stex.

i'm a bit iffy on the whole process as i've found the "Dat Packer" a very dangerous tool and have stopped using it ever since I seem to get dependancy packs, props, et al being removed alas brown box cities in the game..

any help would be greatly appreciated...

cheers

john

The DatPacker is dangerous if you have used it before updating files with Cleanitol.
Whenever running Cleanitol, please make sure you have no DatPacked files in your plugins.

There is one tutorial in the process of being written... give the "poor guy" a few days and you'll be able to read it! ::)

However, the use of the Cleanitol is fairly simple:

1. Download the program here: http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=97
2. Install the program and start it.
3. Open the txt file from within Cleanitol.
4. Cleanitol will remove possible outdated files if such are listed.
5. Cleanitol will check all dependencies and provide a link to a download site if any one is missing.

John88088:  It took me a while to understand the cleanitol tool since my brain does a very good job of fighting   
                 anything on the computer thats set up very simply and logical. What I did was to make an extra copy
                 of my "Original Plugins" folder and on one I would remove the items manually and on the other I would
                 learn to use the Cleanitol tool. After a while I got it figured out and now pretty will trust it But I still
                 like to cross check manually. Its my illogical working brain that I don't trust. $%Grinno$%

xxdita:        Thank you for the latest cleanitol list of the farming stuff. I have built my own library of this much
                 needed information just to make sure I have all my ducks in a row.  :thumbsup:
