    hi guys, love the site, so many great downloads here. i've been playing sim city 4 on and off for about 5 years now and have really appreciated the resources available on sites like this and sc4devotion. my question is this: ive downloaded some lots i absolutely love, but, to me, they aren't appearing in the 'right' architecture style set. they're european looking and appear in the american sets. is there any program that would allow me to modify the characteristics of a particular growable lot?

    thanks.

    Welcome to the conversation.

    I think that what you want is the ilive Reader. You will need to change the appropriate exemplar. This is out of my area of expertise, but someone should post to let you know what you need to change.

    yeah, the program allows me to change some aspects very easily but it is also very confusing and complicated. i was able to change the wealth level of the buildings i wanted to modify with no problem, but i also want to change the architecture set as well as the number of occupants and have no idea how to use the program to do so. thank you so much for helping but i still can't figure out how to change these parameters.

    I think if you have a look over at SC4Devotion, there is a tutorial by Paeng.
