For the R$ houses, which folder would i put them and the dependencies?

I put them into the plugins folder, yet the original buildings are still appearing and none of the replacement houses are appearing.

Well, a long time ago, i installed the CAM. But i am not so sure if the CAM files got transferred when i transferred the files from one computer to the other (Kei san's files was lost, for example, so i had to re-download them).

I did not find any CAM files, but I will check again.

Sorry for any confusion.

EDIT: I found and removed the CAM, and everything is working. (with a crashed economy  &mmm)

I suspect the reason they are not growing with CAM is the fact the the property LotConfigPropertyFamily has been left in the lotconfig exemplars.
We've known for a long time that this property should be removed from custom lots (especially residential ones), as they might not grow at all otherwise.

While beta-testing CAM in early 2007 I also modified certain ingame Maxis lots (changing the growth stage of them).
If I didn't remove the LotConfigPropertyFamily, such residential lots wouldn't grow at all in CAM.

Back then I thought that would have been the case regardless of CAM or not...
Now, it's interesting to hear that they would grow in RH, but not in CAM...  ???

Regardless, whenever making lots, whether they are replacements for the ingame ones or not,
the recommendation is always to remove LotConfigPropertyFamily.

The purpose of that property is still quite a mystery.
However, if it's omitted, the lots would still be functioning, even as replacements for the ingame lots.

@RippleJet san
Thank you always for polite and precise answer to problem RippleJet san. :)
and I'd sent PM for you on BSC-Priva-Board about a place of CAM-files, check it later please. ;)

@龍之介さん(Ryusuke516)
Yeh, You go it !! ;)
howevee, I found a thing now about CAM and KEI san's LOTs. "$Deal"$
I guess that a lot of player putting a files of CAM on 'My Documents/SimCity 4/Plugins/a_cam...' now,
(KEI san's Lots and other BAT and MOD in Plugins that same CAM files.)
I'd try to move a folder "a_cam" to MAXIS root directry '/Program Files/MAXIS/SimCity 4/Plugins/a_cam...'
Then KEI san's LOTs could appear correctry in a game without any remaking of LOTs !!  :o

We know well that CAM files necessary to be readed and has priority over other files.
and a Plugins in a MAXIS Progams is most priority be readed other than Plugins in 'My Documents'.
Maybe, I had misunderstanding of an Order of reading files on Windows:-[


Shall you try to this way "Move CAM-files(a_cam) to Plugins in SC4 program folder" and play a game with KEI san's LOTs !? :D

Thank you.

I have once a few months ago put Kei san's lots in the  program file(x86)/maxis/simcity4/plugins folder , but nothing ever showed up... (i'm using windows vista)
So I can try the CAM in the  program files(x86)/maxis/simcity4/plugins folder and try that out and say what happen later.

-off topic-
(by the way, my real name is Ryunosuke (龍之介), but all my friends just call me Ryusuke)
(don't ask for my last name because i never give it out unless required on the internet)

(sorry if i was a bit snappy and/ or rude, the air conditioner broke and it was very hot in my room)

EDIT
Yes everything works with the CAM being in the other plugins folder.  ;D
