URBAN BEAUTIFICATION PACK VOLUME 2:
Road Side Trees
This is a pack of 21 separate lots which focuses on using 1x1 lots with a single seasonal tree in a professionally landscaped fashion to help enhance your cities roads and recreational areas.
Thanks goes out to Simgoober, Pegasus, Jeronij and Porkie for their absolutely brilliant seasonal props which made these lots the eye candy that they are.Darmok was also an inspiration for the diagonal lots.He has a set of diagonal filler lots on the STEX but I thought they were a bit plain and so I made my own seasonal versions.His lots are not a dependency but you can get them if you wish to add even more variation to your city avenues.
The UBP: Vol. 2 actually contains three different sets of lots:Road Side Trees, Road Side Trees Diagonal, and a Simple Plaza.All lots are 1x1, have a base and overlay texture designed to blend in with the default maxis sidewalk texture and Jeronij's White Trail Park Pack and Diagonal Park Fencing lots.They give minor park and landmark effects.Also, nearly every lot has some kind of seasonal quality to it, the trees, the bushes, and the flowers.Keep an eye pealed as the time goes by and witness the gardens bloom and the leaves fall from the trees (maintenance cost includes leaf sweeping).
There are 10 different trees in total:4 PEG style, 4 Porkie style, and 2 Jeronij Style.There is a tree for every city.
The Road Side Trees:These lots have a grass texture designed to blend in with the grass textures of jeronij's diagonal park fencing and trail park packs.They are simple 1x1 lots with a single seasonal tree in the middle with a little bit of landscaping on the base.They can be placed in parks or on the sides of roadways.They can even be placed on the sides of diagonal roads or streets although the base texture won't match perfectly it will help to smooth the edges a bit in a zoomed out view.
The Road Side Tree Diagonals:These lots have a half grass half sidewalk texture which is designed to be placed next to a diagonal Avenue.Note that an avenue will only produce a jagged sidewalk when there is enough zoning placed on the avenue.Those of you who use diagonal avenues enough will know what I am talking about.These lots can also be used by themselves to create a diagonal walking path (not transit enabled).The walking path can be used in conjunction with other lots from the Urban Beautification Pack: Vol. 1 and with the Simple Plaza (included in this volume) as well as Jeronij's white Trail parks to create a gorgeous modular park and plaza area which changes colors with every season.
The Simple Plaza:This 1x1 lot contains some seasonal azaleas to help blend the transition from diagonal path to straight path when using the Diagonal Tree lots to create a custom seasonal park and plaza.
INSTALLATION
Very simply unzip the downloaded file and extract the UBP: Vol. 2.The sets are contained in their own sub folders which makes it easy for you to pick and choose which lots to install.Just choose your favorite lots and move them to an organized section of your MyDocuments/SimCity4/Plugins folder.Enjoy!
Note the UBP:V1 uses Road Side Tree 10 which is included in this Volume 2.
DEPENDENCIES
I tried very hard to keep this list short and I believe I was successful (also needed for Volume 1):
The flowers and most of the gardens in general use Simgoober's Flora Packs located in a Mega pack here: https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/15287-bsc-mega-props-sg-vol-01/
The trees and buildings themselves are from Pegasus' seasonal tree lots here:
