Deadwoods on the LEXX

[deadwoods]

Sorry that should be LEX, but I just love the show.

The observant amongst you (yes I know there aren't many ) may have noticed I've uploaded a few files to the BSC LEX over the last few days (45 as at about five mins ago). Some of these were only ever published on PEG's PLEX. Most have been published on the STEX.

I'm in the process of uploading all the ones from the STEX that don't need any modifications. Many contain readme's that link to dependencies on the STEX. I still need to go through the readme's and fix the dependency links. If you have all of the BSC Mega Prop Packs (most are on the BSC LEX under the category of "Dependency - Props", except I think for Simgoobers) and the BSC Mega Texture Pack (also on the BSC LEX under the category "Dependency - Textures") you should be safe..

I will post a list of files I've uploaded when I get a chance.

There are a few sets that will be repackaged/remodded (such as the Servo Series and the HWT Building). They're not forgotten, just further down the to-do list.

With Deadwoods on the LEX, it's really becoming a fantastic resource...

Welcome to the LEX, yet another great addition to the growing amount of superb custom content! 

[Serkanner]

Welcome on the LEX Deadwoods ... I am surprised to see I have so many GB of files on my drives , and still managed to miss a few of your master pieces ... and now I am not missing those anymore 

[Indisguise]

the LEXX is now DEAD   

[jeronij]

These are great news, and I just can say THANK YOU for your support to the LEX 
Your files are a really exceptional addition to our site

the LEXX is now DEAD   

Don't tell me that. We're not up to that part of the series on SciFi here in Oz.

I've now got 50 items up on the LEX. I still need to go through and fix dependency links. Then I've got 20+ sets that need cleaning up (some need some modding, some will be consolidated into one dat/package) that will be done over the next few weeks. If I can I'll put together a master-list of dependencies for all my lots on the STEX (no promises).

[deadwoods]

Progress update. I've been going through the readme's for the 50 files already on the LEX and checking the dependencies. I had planned to update all the links to be correct, but it turned out to be a PITA. Soooo, I've created a single HTML file that contains all links for all my files on the LEXX...





It also contains a Cleanitol file (installed into the cleanitol folder) that can be used to check for all the files. This requires the latest Cleanitol ( v1.8 ).

I plan to update this pack every time my dependency list changes. Nerxt step in the migration is to go back through the old readmes and remove the dependency sections. Please identify any problems with the list (either the HTML file or the Cleanitol file).

This Master Dependency list is a wonderful idea and I really appreciate the effort in creating it.
It definitely deserves a brownie point

[deadwoods]

Last night I updated all of the descriptions of my files on the LEXX to refer to the master dependency list. I have not updated the embedded readmes as 1) its too much work  , and 2) that would have flagged all 50+ packages as updated on the LEXX so folks would go and download again when they don't need to. So ignore the dependencies in the readme, just use the DEDWD Master Dependency List.

You would have noticed that SandraSim1 has been posting the Amsterdam Centraal Station lots on the LEX. A number of BSC members worked on these lots some time ago (it was one of the first big BSC team projects) including Daeley, SandraSim and myself, based off Xannepan's brilliant model. SandraSim1 has revisited the dependencies on both the "Under Construction" lot and the live station (a Reward). I haven't yet updated the Master Dependency List to include my lot of the pair (the Under Construction lot). It's at the top of the list.

Finally, I've started working on the older lots from the STEX that need a bit of cleanup. One of my earlier uploads to the STEX was a set of small railway utility lots, called the BSC SimCityRail Utility Lots. These are functional (i.e. transit enabled) plopable lots to enhance your rail system. There are carparking lots, small maintenance yards, a signal booth, a water tank (that supplied water) and a few others. They all have custom UI's. I've rebuilt the readme, reviewed the dependencies and repackaged the lots. There is a BSC Cleanitol TM file included in the new pack that will look for and cleanup any of the old files. Download the new package here

Thank you so much, Deadwoods! That is definitely time and effort above and beyond the call of the game! You list and, of course, your excellent contributions to the game are greatly appreciated! I think every one of my cities has something of yours in it. Please take that as the highest compliment I can give!

[deadwoods]

One more pack copied from the STEX. A long time ago I created a BAT of the Frank Lloyd Wright Rosenbaum House for barby as part of a series of BLS small houses. The house is a great example of FLW's Usonian Houses. In the migration from the STEX I have redone some pics and the readme, and checked the dependencies. The DEDWD Master Dependency List has been reviewed, but no additional dependencies were required for this lot.

[deadwoods]

Two more sets on the BSC LEX; 1) the Herald and Weekly Times Building (from Melbourne), and 2) the I-HT Pharmaceutical Labs Set.

The Herald and Weekly Times building contains the original Plopable Landmark and Growable CS$$6 lots. I've also added three new growable CS$$7 lots; a 4x5 lot, a 4x6 lot and a 5x5 lot to give it a bit more growing variety. There's not much from Maxis in that stage/size, so they should pop up. Here's a pic from a city with heaps of CS$$ demand...



You can see a 5x5 (top left) and a few 4x6 lots. I didn't get any 4x5 tonight, but I did get one last night.

The I-HT Pharmaceuticals set is exactly the same as the set I posted on the STEX some time ago.

I did not need to update the Master Dependency List for either of these sets; the list contains the dependencies for these lots.

For the Aussies, I'm putting a little Aussie flag on the downloads that are Aussie-themed (i.e. copies of Aussie buildings or brands, or based on the types of buildings we see).

Ooops, too late. They were loaded up a few weeks ago. I've got quite a few things still on the list to cleanup/move across. But I'll see if I can do that following.

[Pat]

As Doc said

DEDWOODS: I love your lots and am using a lot of them in my cities. I just encountered a bit of a problem with some of the dependencies in your Master Dependency List:

1. McCormick and Company-0x5ad0e817_0x71bc08fc_0x30000.SC4Model - ST link broken
2. Mother Russia - Caliban BSC.dat - locked
3. PEG-CDKN_Pier-One_205.dat - unable to open URL link-item could not be found (for some reason the PLEX only has CDKN Pier 3 & 4???)
4. SG_FarmSupplyEssentials.dat - ST link broken, don't know if it has been included in some pack at the LEX

Would appreciate if somebody can help me on this... (my cities have been growing beautifully lately, thanks to the LEX!!!)

Edit: found PEG-CDKN_Pier-One_205.dat from browsing forums at the PLEX (http://simpeg.com/forum/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item54)

[BarbyW]

1. McCormick is a building by marcszar and has been removed from the STEX pending upload to the LEX.
2.Mother Russia is on the LEX in a pack of caliban's work.
4.  SG_FarmSupplyEssentials.dat now forms part of SG_Extras_Agriculture on the LEX.

[Anthony]

  WOW!!! I was just out browsing PEG's site and VOILA! what a lightning response! thanks a bunch BarbyW

I have been looking for marcszar model myself yesterday to get deadwoods Ministry of garbage up and running in one of my cities. And although marcszar has locked his upload on the STEX he farsightedly provided an alternative download for the plain model file (for everyone in need for it to avoid the large brown box on deadwoods lot). You can find the link at the bottom of his locked STEX upload or simply try this copy of it.
