About This File
Update: Added download options with no grass around roundabouts.
This Mod does a number of things to your roundabouts:
1. It adds a range of options to the center of your roundabouts.
2. It fixes a few issues with certain tiles that were not aligned properly.
3. It removes the last remnants of baked-in maxis white sidewalks from the roundabout textures, allowing your installed sidewalk mod to shine through.
Please note it works without sidewalk mods too, in which case you'll just see the normal maxis sidewalk as shown here.
The mod is available for normal maxis street users as well as for people who use Rivit's excellent Urban Tarsealed Streets Modd.
Update:
This mod is for use with European NAM texture options.
There will be an American version, check back here for updates.
For more information, visit my thread here.
You can view more images here and here.
I did my best to test this thoroughly before release, but if you find any errors or details you'd like fixed for the next version, don't hesitate to send me a message.
Acknowledgements:
I'd like to thank Rivit and rsc204 for all their support, I could never have done this without you guys!
Thank you to all those who participated in the discussion on my dev thread for this mod, your input was very important to me.
I also would like to thank C.P. for graciously allowing me to use his textures for the roundabouts center, you rock C.P.
Finally a big thank you goes to all the great people who have contributed to this community and to this wonderful game throughout the years, making this a place worth visiting daily, and SC4 a game to last a lifetime.

Installation:
1. Unzip the file, then move the z_____RoundaboutFacelift folder into your plugins folder.
2. Open the z_____RoundaboutFacelift folder and navigate to the Road folder.
3. Pick a file according to your preference (See included images) and delete or move the rest out of your plugins folder.
4. Go back to z_____RoundaboutFacelift and open the Street folder.
5. Pick a file according to your preference (See included images) and delete or move the rest out of your plugins folder.
n.b. You can have different options for road and street, for added diversity.
6. Enjoy your new roundabouts.
(Make sure this mod loads after the z___NAM folder, and any other folder that alters your roundabouts, such as Rivit's TSR.
If you aren't the type that changes folder names everything should work if you keep the names as they are).
To uninstall simply delete the z_____RoundaboutFacelift folder from you plugins.
Dependencies: Network Addon Mod with Euro textures.
RVT Urban Tarsealed Streets (For the RVT TSR version only, obviously)
Recommended: Magneto's T21 Trees for roundabouts, they add a nice touch! (You'll want to avoid using the "Sidewalk" option for your roundabouts if you use Magneto's trees, or you'll get flora growing on solid sidewalks.)
If you find problems with the Mod and feel the need to downrate it, I would appreciate it if you leave feedback on your reasons for this. This way I can try and remedy and improve the quality of my work for future releases. Thanks!
