Simtropolis Living Sign- Grand Fir Park Set
Donated by Kloudkicker Industries

Two versions available, download either the Seasonal Fir set or the Evergreen Fir set. Both can be used together, just not sure why one would.

Kloudkicker Industries wanted to build a park to honor Simtropolis and its community. A grand idea was born years ago and work was started planting the finest trees in SimNation, Girafe's Grand Firs. The saplings where planted very precisely so they would grow up to spell out the name SIMTROPOLIS and would be seen by every aircraft flying over. Your sims can take a walk or just enjoy the outdoors, because there's plenty of parking and open space with the Park n' Play edition. Three street connections are network enabled for visual effects of vehicles going to and from the Park n' Play edition. A tree only edition gives more flexibility in ground placement tolerance, up to 60 degrees, and has a transparent ground texture to allow any ground texture mod to show up and blend in. That one does not need road access or any utilities and has neutral stats. Both editions come with individual demand cap lifters.

Placement works best when plopped on flat/level ground. Park n' Play edition has 15 degrees of slope tolerance and the tree only edition has 60 degrees slope tolerance. When placing the tree only version, you can use the NAM 15m ground raiser tool to create a sloped hill 21 tiles long and about 4 tile high, for a great way to display the Simtropolis name.

NOTE: Street connections will be made when plopped next to existing street/road. Or can be made dragging the street tool into the three connection points after plopping.
The seasonal props will need about a year to fully appear depending on time of year placing lot. Afterwards they will always be visible.

After reading the README text file inside, remove folder "Simtropolis LS Park Set README" and store it in a separate place other than the two plugins folders or discard it. Take folder "Kloudkicker" and place it in the Documents SimCity 4 Plugins folder. Enjoy while playing.

Uninstall:
Bulldoze all of the lots in every city they were placed and then remove the files from your Plugins folder. Did I leave something out, oh well!

Credits:
Thank you Girafe and BSC team for providing the wonderful trees and textures. Thank you to all of the Simtropolis community, SC4D and Maxis of course. But a Big Thanks goes to Dirktator, the founder of Simtropolis, for starting Simtropolis in 2002. Thank you Everyone

This lot was designed by me(Kloudkicker) and has been tested. Much care has been take to ensure that there are no errors, but this does not mean that errors do not exist. How can anyone ensure that when the game is not perfect itself? Use at your own risk.

Feel free to use this mod for any reason. Please, just give credit when it's due. However, Do Not upload this mod to any site without my permission.

It would be awesome if you did the full alphabet, allowing us to use individual letters to display the name of our cities.   Great job!

I see people often celebrate their love for this Special community with diverse carefully-crafted gifts they made, some of them even do this for the Great CoriBoom™, It's hard to say the exact reason by doing this, since it contains too many things, however I believe I know them, *;) Thank you Nick for this Unique work!*:thumb:
