Commercial lot triggering CAM Reward when it wasn't a high stage lot

I was just playing around in SC4 last night and had a small problem.  When I was playing in a 2 city brand new region, I had 3 Commercial buildings grow in the 2nd city.  2 of them were original buildings, but one was a custom building.  It was the Wendy's restaurant that was included in the kevdan25 Restaurant Mega Pack uploaded here @ the LEX.  For some odd reason, it triggered the CAM Commercial Counter Reward.  And I know it isn't a stage 9 or higher building.  But the crazy thing is that I plopped down the counter so see if it showed up, and it did, but below Stage 9, so it only showed up @ the end where the totals are shown.  It also happened in another city recently with kevdan25's Long John Silvers/A&W.  So, I have a weird feeling all of the might have been effected.  Is there something that I can do to fix this myself, or would I have to wait for an updated file?

Thanks for any help in advance. :)

Thank you Rickmasterfan67 for finding this! :thumbsup:

The error comes from the building(s) having the wrong Occupant Groups, in this case CAM OG's they shouldn't have at all.
A similar error was reported by Rayden here: http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=1177.msg90174#msg90174

Since that building was never identified, I hope we will be able to find it now! :)
An update of Kevdan25's uploads will follow... As soon as Barby wakes up... ::)

It's rickmastfan67, or rmf67 for short. :P ;) Or you can just call me James since that's my real name (I also show my name in my sig. :P)

Glad to be of service.  Just remember to double check all of the LOT's for Kevdan25's files in that download because others might have this mistake as well.

On it. I've found 8 in that pack of lots that have the CAMelot OG. Fixed them all, and creating an installer now, using the original ReadMe, so all Barby will have to do is send it to the LEX.  :)
Edit - Updated the Cleanitol as well.  ;D

Now I get what you're were trying to say last night by adding the "er" into my screen-name.  lol.  When I made that response to you last night, I wasn't thinking correctly because I was really sleepy.  Sry about that. ;)
