Simgoober is arriving in force

[Tarkus]

Barby, I don't know how you do it.  This is an absolutely incredible thing you've done for the community here.  I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work that went into organizing this whole thing.  I have to second Citynut here--you definitely deserve the LEX Goddess title.

BigSlark: The Entertainment Models pack has been updated. Apologies again.

2 mistakes in howmany packs containing how many lots? You should not be apologising!

[northjon79]

Awesome news.

Saves me hunting through everything on the STEX for his BATs/LOTs.

[Sober]

Oh, now this is just awesome. This is one heck of a project you've got here Barby! Great for people who don't want to hunt down everything SG, or a good way to get people into SC4 by having all of SG's stuff organzed and updated!

Though there are a few things I found while going around with cleanitol -

Residentials:
in the \Simgoober\RLS\Homes folder (using SG's file hierarchy), it seems a few files remain:

• R$3_2x3_SG_Berwick01_8fa9e151.SC4Lot
• SG_BrownStones.SC4Desc

I went through the cleanitol lists - this 2x3 Berwick isn't listed (but everything else is under that). Not exactly an expert and reading SC4tool, but the dependency scanner shows a 2x3 berwick (R$4_2x3_SG_Berwick_01). I assume this one is actually of a different growth stage (if you updated it). The Brownstones I'm not entirely sure about.

Commercials:
Entertainment:
in the \Simgoober\RLS\MovieTheatres:

• SG_6x4_CenturyMovieTheater_ef8be20b.SC4Lot

the Entertainment_Lots dat file doesn't list a 6x4 century movie theatre according to SC4Tool.

Hotels:
in \Simgoober\Hotels\Ritz Carlton:

• SG_RitzCarlton.dat

the cleanitol grabbed the lot, but not this (it was looking for the SC4model files). I assume everything but the lot is in the .dat file, so that should be included in the cleanitol file. (Downloaded this from the STEX)

Shops:
in \Simgoober\PlopAShop\Pack 4\ folder:

• SG_2x4_PlopAShopsA_0ea6472d.SC4Lot

Can't find it in the new small shop lots dat, although if it was a repeat then there already is a 2x4 in that .dat; the cleanitol doesn't have this file listed though.


Nothing too bothersome for you I hope.

[BarbyW]

I think I shall post a pack of master Cleanitol files separately when all the RCI growables and ploppables are done rather than update the packs on the LEX. It will save bandwidth 

[Pat]

Hey Barby i don't know if anyone else has had this yet but the query for SG Perkins rest grow is not working at all... Just a heads up though.....

[Sober]

query doesnt seem to work for Borders Books either.

/edit: also, it seems like many of the single-family homes seem to have their capacities bumped up by quite a bit (around seven-fold with some). Was this intentional to have it work better with the CAM?

[rickmastfan67]

Ok, I have a little problem here with missing a texture on one of the lots.  It's with the SG_CheckCashing lots in the SG_Models_Small_Shops.dat.  Somehow, I'm missing the base texture for it and I've downloaded all of the dependencies listed on the readme that came with the lot download for the small shops.  The texture has the ID of 0x1DA4446A.  Does anybody know who's mega pack that texture might be in?

Thanks in advance for the help.

[BarbyW]

The file for that texture is in the
SG Extras pack on the LEX.
The SC Extras pack has been updated to include some missing queries. The files for these were in the ploppable lots that are still being processed.

[Ramona Brie]

Barby? If you could just send the Chocolate Boutique model to me or upload it separately, that would help eliminate the final missing thing. (One of your BLS houses has something I'm missing, though. It's a house prop...)

Hope that helps tracker

I downloaded that.

[TheTeaCat]

I downloaded that.

Ok but did it work? as soon as I reinstalled it and opened up the city there it was in all its glory! Hope the same happened for you

  Well, I already had it download and I had that problem.  But I just re-downloaded and the problem was fixed.

[Diggis]

OK, just to let you know that I have downloaded all of the Goober stuff and he arrived in force all right.

I was doing a quick test (played for maybe 30 mins) and had goobers nuts, sum ting wong, jack knoffs, the tatoo parlour, goobers coverups... you get the idea.  My commerce never looked so great.  Thank you barby.

In a snap, Camelot was making history...for having the first Hooters in SimNation, located right across from Camelot International Airport.

I was noticing the flurry of new SG buildings everywhere, as well as my existing high-rise office buildings saying "CO$$$ Stage ___". (They were CAMeLots, thus the name of my city. I meant it to be beefy enough for CAM.)

What was the answer to these observations? The files can be safely deleted or not?

[BarbyW]

I think one of the problems we have here is that when simgoober updated lots on the STEX some of us didn't get the updates. That is certainly why I gave the individual model and desc instead of SG_RitzCarlton.dat. I did try to download everything from the STEX but at nearly 300 files I may have missed the odd update or two on the way as I already had a particular file. As I said above I think the best solution is to post a set of master Cleanitol files - one each for R,C and I - when I have finished the RCI uploads and incorporate all the files listed by people in this thread. That way I should hopefully cover all bases so please continue to post any left over file names in here.
I would suggest removing the left over files to the same directory as that used by Cleanitol so if there is a problem you can reinstate them. The three hotels in your list, Patrick, were all updated with the loose model and descs in a dat, which are the ones I had, unlike the Ritz Carlton where I had the loose ones - see the problem

[snorrelli]

I do see the problem... Really emphasizes what an enormous undertaking updating all these lots is! 

[BarbyW]

And also why it is good that people are taking the care to post problems here.
