I have already made a thread to show my lot projects on www.simcities.com to show my lot projects but I was too lazy to make one here.  I have uploaded three sets of lots already:  a rural rescue squad, a fire station, and a set of train stations.  One of the things you should know is that I DO NOT HAVE THE B.A.T!  I might figure out how to get gmax installed on my SimCity computer soon, though (it doesn't have internet access).

What made me get around to posting a thread of my lot projects is an amazing success that i wasn't expecting:  my fire station made it to the 'Best of the Week' list on the STEX!    I think I could have done some more work on it anyway, but I can't do much for a while because I am staying with my uncle for Christmas this year, and also my computer's not working right, so I will have to fix it when I get back. 

Anyway...  here's what I posted on the thread at SimCities.com:

POST ONE:

December 12, 2007

I will soon upload several lots to the STEX and SCEX (leaving the LEX for only the best of the best) that will be:

- Re-lotted train stations for the purpose of placing it where a railroad intersects a road

- I will replace fire truck props in several fire station lots using American and European fire truck props that look more realistic

- I will replace police car props in several police station lots using the various Civic Vehicle props available at SimCityCentral.net and also the Police Car Prop and Driveable available from the STEX

- I hope I mentioned all of it...

- Oh yeah...The police car prop replacements require that you have whichever police car as your automata thing (for example, if you have the Swedish civic vehicles, you won't be able to use the lots with the Polish cop car props)

POST TWO:

December 14

I don't have any pictures yet but you can expect some by Monday, and they might end up attached to the lots themselves in the SCEX.  I will work on them plenty tonight, and I just discovered some German civic vehicles at one of the German simcity sites--Kurier.SimCityPlaza.de--so I will be able to use them as props too (For the German SimCity players, I will simply use the default police car prop, which shows up as a German green and white 'polizei' car if you have the PEG version, like how the default cop car prop shows up as a similar car to whichever cop car you use with the PEG cop car mod.)

I will upload two sets of fire stations:  one with American fire vehicles, and another with European fire vehicle props.  Both lots will have the same dependency that includes the fire vehicles. 

If you are offering me a position in the BLaM team, I would be glad to accept it, but I don't have ANY skills with using the BAT, but I could probably use a SC4Model file and use the Plugin Manager to turn it into a building or prop. (I haven't tried this yet, but it seems easy)  Also, my Internet access consists primarily of 10AM-11:15AM (during these times I am at school in study hall, and on school wireless ST and SC4Devotion are blocked) and 3PM-4:30PM (during these times all SimCity sites are available because at these times I am at a public library near my school) Eastern Standard or daylight savings time (GMT-5) so if there are any meetings or whatever BLaM does to discuss certain issues, I will almost certainly be unable to make it.  Plus, the video card on my laptop can't handle the chatroom here at SimCities.com.

From certain bits and pieces of evidence I have gathered that you are a fire fighter.  If you have a model of your fire station, I would be glad to lot it for you.

And I think I have thought of a way to have all of the various police cars available, with only one of them being the one that drives

The fire station, the rescue squad and the train stations are on the STEX.
