This is my first time using these forums, so sorry if I have posted this is the wrong place!
I have been trying to create a village for a Mayor Diary, and I am planing on using House BATs, like Gascookers ones. When I install them, I have all the dependancies, but they never grow! It's getting very annoying. How do I make them grow, or get them as plopable lots? I am looking for ones that look like old  British Village Style Terraced houses. Can anyone help?

Have you changed the tileset to Euro?  There are 4 tilesets in the game that define which style of building will grow.  By default I think all of them are set on.  Another thing you can do is add Maxis blockers to your plugins folder

Remember to only install the residential ones  :thumbsup:
The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it

I tried the firt method and it didn't work, and with the second method no houses grew at all! Do you know if there are any plopable houses matching my description (That accomodate people to live in them)?

You cannot have ploppable residentials with residents, they won't go to work and will quickly delapidate.  I have always found the Gascooker low wealth houses to grow very easily, have you blocked the residentials AND changed to Euro tileset?
