Why doesn't the LEX PlopAShopsA, PlopAShopsB, and PlopAShop work?

I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean. Can you explain why they don't work? And post a picture.

I downloaded Sim goober's Ploppable Lots from LEX on page 91. Everything is working except the "PlopAShopsA;B;and C. They are strip malls and when I place them in town, all that appears is a small parking lot with an open space where the building is suppose to be. However the sims still go there, I just can't see the buildings.

I'm not familiar with these lots but it sounds like you are missing the dependent props.   Do you have all the listed dependencies?

Those are not the names of the buildings in the game.
Thus, how do you know they are the ones that appear faulty?

These are the lot names of the four old PlopAShop packs by SimGoober available on STEX:

  • SG_4x4_PlopAShops_ae8639ce.SC4Lot
  • SG_3x4_PlopAShopsB_ae8943e1.SC4Lot
  • SG_3x4_PlopAShopsA_6e89428d.SC4Lot
  • SG_2x4_PlopAShopsA_0ea6472d.SC4Lot

From SG Commercials Ploppable lots simgoober on the LEX you would only get one large file with retail shops, called SG_Lots_Retail_Ploppables.dat, installed under SimGoober\Commercial\Ploppables\Retail.

That file includes all those PlopAShops that were previously separately uploaded on the STEX.
In the game they are seen as:

  • Plop A Shop - Pack 1
  • Plop A Shops - Pack 2
  • Plop A Shops - Pack 3
  • Plop A Shops, Pack 4

If you have installed this pack from LEX with all dependencies, I would recommend that you delete all those old PlopAShop files.
You should find them in four folders, Pack 1, Pack 2, Pack 3 and Pack 4 under SimGoober\PlopAShop.
