Nope, they're in delvopement right now. This is just the beta test similar to Beta 3's testing.

Not yet.   These are just early concept lots... and are about to get ditched because they are actually re-lotted PEG chicken ranches...  Paeng has made me a brand new template to work with in LE...  so no more screaming cats!

The lots in these images are only 3x3...   everything else is ploppable flora, and miscellenous rural ploppable lots, already available, like ChrisAdams RRP lots and flora from the LEX.

Oh that is not part of the lot...   that is RRP flora and PEG PPond flora which yes has been layed on a tad thick...   but then cows don't normally mind a bit of boggy ground...   I will see what can be done to improve the drainage...

Maybe a bit more practice with the small lots is in order before you try to play like the big boys. lol

BTW, I like the texture on the greenhouse (not exactly like I'm used to seeing but it's fine) ... but the pointy roof makes my hair stand on end.. Sorry. I had to say it. Now I feel better. Thanks.

OK, time to shift into second gear...   I-R2  ...   Stage Two lots!

Interesting to note that there are no 3x3 Maxis default farms.

Abcvs Ag! ....   Pegasus has given all the buildings for the lots their names...

 

[JayStimson 211]

Domes are not high on my favorite list.

Here are two pics of the more common type of farm greenhouses. It's not that your greenhouse is wrong in style, it's just that the pitch of the roof is too steep. It would also be nice if the texture is transparent and the LODs are custom so if used as props to build a lot with a set of greenhouses, various flora props could be put inside and seen in the game.

So here's the pics:

I believe the 2nd pic is called quonset style.... but I could be wrong.

i mean distribution buildings with semi truck loading docks

[JayStimson 211]

I am drooling waiting for all this new great farming stuff and thought I would offer some information that might help.

I always liked the PEG dirt streets but never used them because diagonals weren't available. I recently discovered the SAM V3 mod, added some base textures (low wealth), LE'd some of my custom lots (that are all TE'd) so the textures match from street to lot. Looks way better now, IMO. Just thought I'd share this while you're still working on the project. Take a look at the pic here:

Great work you guys are doing. Thanks.
