I recently downloaded and installed all the SNM army lots, and I'm having problems with the following:
SNM Base Washrackshttp://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=319 (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=319)
SNM Small Power Supplyhttp://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=320 (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=320)
SNM MAAM Parks BSChttp://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1153 (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1153)
I hope that someone can help with this, and perhaps this might help others in the future....
I installed the dependencies listed in the washracks readme file - quite a list:
# BSC Mega Texture Pack
Listed as

(assuming that BSC Mega Texture Pack
is BSC Textures MEGA Pack)

I presumably that this refers to

All that just for the washracks (and just to be thorough, I've also installed the dependencies of the dependencies). Then there's the power station:

Phew, got all that except SNM Essentials, "to be included in the Support Files." Ok, then. Whatever.
Right, then, SNM MAAM Parks BSC, dependencies as listed at

I had that, of course:

This took some finding, but I think this should suffice:

No clues given, but I'm guessing that it's now in one of the bigger texture packs?

Yeah, yeah, yeah....

Now, I'm not complaining - really, I'm not. I appreciate all the work that goes into this stuff, and I understand that these files get updated and moved over time. I have had very few problems with downloads from this site, which seems to be by far the best for SC4 downloads.
Still.... with all the bad links in the readme files, the ambiguous names given for files, and the references to obsolete files, some of these downloads are now, frankly, pigs, and barely worth the effort involved even if they worked, IMHO.
These don't work.

On entering the city, I am greeted with the following:

Well, I tried Googling some of that, but it didn't get me anywhere....

GAH! The Corps of Engineers are at their wits end. Their vehicles are filthy, and they're having to work by candlelight. Yesterday, Major Fukup shot himself.
After putting so much effort into this, I would
really appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of the missing dependencies.... maybe even update the readme files? I'm sure others would appreciate it too.
TIA

So I have to stop doing new stuff to sort this out. ::) I have not got the time to redo all the Readmes but will post here a full list of all up to date dependencies. As you can see I have already posted the list for the washracks. The list that you give for the washracks is actually the FULL list of dependencies for all SNM Army lots.
