1st i would like to say that i'm new to this forum...i download LOADS of this site, as well from simtropolis. I'm fairly new to the game...i only downloaded the cam is because i wanted skyscrapers that i could see on the google screenshots...i tried my best to get Tall skycrapers but thant i figured out the cam is responsible for most of em.
I was quite disappointed about all the stage 8 commotion, i must admit i don't think i got stage 8 CO yet but R stage 8 was no problem (and they looked quite small imho)
Great job guys on everything....the CAM is a game by itself..(over the 1 gig off dependencies for the starterpacakges alone lol)
The following pictures shows that i miss something in my industrial stage 1-3 lot...AFTER i installed CAM. i made a new region, new bitmap, everything is new, installed CAM installed all starterpackages, some custom camelots, i should have all dependencies (the cleanitol says i miss some megapacks but those are updated in other files and 1 model but there is a name change involved)...
also some maxis buildings don't seem to develop like the 4x4 tiles manufacturing plant and stuff...it would seem all maxis related buildings don't develop for the industrie..or at least it doesn't show like before the cam was installed

this next picture is ZOOM 3 or ZOOM 2 i don't know...the buildings don't show as they did before i installed cam

i don't believe it's prop pox....it has always been like this since i installed CAM
Welcome to SC4D! Always nice to see someone from your own country here. Anyway, back ontopic: on the LEX you can find a tool to explore your savegame and determine wether or not you've got the prop pox. you can find it here (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2021)
I believe you only need to set the City Details to high (under Graphic Options in the game). Whenever you update the game through one of the official upgrades by Maxis, that setting reverts back to normal...
i've set everything on high, just like before...except for cars wich is low and shadows is middle. doesn't seem to help....i'm quite sure i have all dependencies since all custom buildings work and have props...even pegs stuff still got everything...farms and farm field are perfect.. 1st thin i checked was for the prop pox...i still got traffice lights, cars in the parking lots, playground on the poor houses and such
Just to rule it out (or confirm it), could you download wouanagaine's SC4Savegame Explorer (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2021) and open your city save file in it and see whether you have the prop pox or not?
this odd...i started yet another region, but this time CAM was already installed...i see props where i haven't see them before and for some reason all region views are okay..
the old region, where this picture was taken, still suffers from the missing props on all industrie lots. i don't understand the safegame tool...but everything is green like in the tutorial..i'll post a screenie soon though

This would somehow indicate that you've played that old region without loading the ingame prop exemplars... and they are all included in SimCity_1.dat.
If you played without them, they would have been "zeroed out" in the savegame file and unable to get back later on,
as explained by Chrisim in
Disappearing Props - not to be confused with Prop Pox (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=7264.0).
I cannot speculate in how that would have been possible though...
