maybe these ones?

 

 

 

 

 

 

also pretty sure you can find some of these houses made by mattb325 and jmyers here https://sc4evermore.com/index.php/downloads/category/11-residential

Do appreciate the recommendations, quality work but these don't quite make the mark for the Eastern United States. Here are some more examples: ('50s ramblers, '60s split level, '70s/'80s gambrel, recent McMansions, townhomes then and now).

Howdy friends,

I was wanting to make the building pictured below into a ploppable landmark.  I tried to modify the lot in lot editor but I couldn’t make it ploppable. I tried the cheat but since it’s residential it goes abandoned.  Can anybody help me out and make a ploppable version?

You can create a ploppable version using PIM-X

But there's a new cheat (growify) now that makes your residentials plopped buildings actually become functional just like the growables:

No problem, I will ask there but I am also calling on anybody who's up for the challenge of making those from scratch.

Do lots exist (or can be made) of modern data centers? These are popping up all over the place in some parts of the U.S., yet I see no SimCity 4 lots modeled after them.

This one also comes close, although modeled as a reward rather than an I-HT lot. (and, obviously, looks more like a European data center than a US one) http://descargas.capitalsim.net/?sitio=csc&descarga=3601

I would also like to see what's the best collection of suburban homes and townhomes, particularily modeled after those found in the Mid-Atlantic. I am curious to see if there are takes on the "craftsman" style popular in the past decade, but I wouldn't mind anything from the past 75 years to add to my collection.

These are my go-to ones, I'm sure there are other sets out there though

I hope someone can fill out this "Request" for me as I DESPERATELY NEED 1x1 "Park Lot" versions of each of the 26 Letters of the Alphabet from the BLaM Signage Pack volune 1...

... the numerals 0 to 9 from Volume 2.. 

... and lastly the Letter Ñ and ampersand symbol (&) from Volume 3...

 

I used to use this pack that only had the 26 Letters of The Alphabet...

... unfortunately this pack has the Letters as Landmarks that REQUIRE Road Access so they "Get Abandoned" if plopped away from a street or road. These also produce a lot of "SIMs" that causes lag and are prone to the "Immortal Lot" bug.

Also the ones from the BLaM Packs look prettier than the ones from the MYOS pack too *:D

I really hope someone can do me a solid on this one.

I will take a go at this. It'll also be a good excuse to explore how to make the new submeunus. I'll plan on neutral park lots that will require power (since they have nightlighting), but not roads.

Feel free to report anything you find with issues like these. We'll try to fix them. *:)

Has anyone posted (or made) a bugfixed Grand Railroad Station that works with Manuel-ito's facelift?

weird request:

modern Empire State night lighting

in-game one is great, and absolutely reflective of multiple time periods where it's been lit up, but they've since swapped out the lights to some colored versions and I do like that. So, having the option for either would be nice

or, alternatively, create an override that allows for custom light color selection to allow people to have whatever crazy color combos they want (like the USL and LRM*:lol:)

and figured it'd make for a fun challenge for people

plus, you get the chance to make both a Maxis Night and Dark Nite variant *;)

I would ping @Diego Del Llano for this request.  I believe he has a patreon account with a custom Empire State Building already, but I don't think it has the color options for different lighting on the top.
