I just formatted my hard drive and reinstalled SC4 this weekend, I saved my plugins folder, but now al of my lots are missing their driveways! THe commercial lots still have their parking lot textures, so is there some file I'm missing? It's not only the downloaded lots, but the original Maxis lots too.
Also, my game seems to get real laggy after a few minutes of playing any ideas?
Any help with either problem would be awesome!

Did you re-install the updates? Also, you might check your game's graphics settings. Thay might be set to 'Low' after your re-install. Need to be 'Medium' or 'High' for many details to appear. Hope this helps...

Well, the lagging problem is fixed, but the driveways are still missing, could it be a texture pack I'm missing? Is there an easy way to check for that?
Can you please post a pic and more information on what lots this is effecting.
here is a pic of the mayor mansion and surrounding houses.

This looks like The Prop Pox (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=1201.0)has struck. Read through that thread and you may find the answer to your particular problem.
I think I may just re-install the game, I can save the region and my plugins.
After re-installing the game, I was able to see the driveways again, but then it switched back :'( idk what to do, I hope this wont effect skyscrapers later on.
