I think the conversion/creation will be fairly simple.  You can use the Prop exemplar for any existing vehicle fixed prop as a template if you need to.

There are two ways to do this:  one super simple way (if you are familiar with Pim-X), and another slightly longer (but not necessarily harder) way using Reader.

Using PIM-X:

1.  After opening PIM-X, find the model you want to use.  There are only two models in the PEG-GarbageTruck_PROP_206.dat file:  one for the blue, and one for the green truck.
2.  Go down to the Prop category, and make sure Ordinary Prop is expanded.
3,  Drag the model file name down and drop it on Ordinary Prop > No Wealth.  You will be asked for an Exemplar name.  After typing one in and clicking OK, you will see your new prop exemplar for a fixed prop with all the correct settings.
4.  Click Close at the bottom, and exit PIM-X.  Your new prop exemplar (.SC4Desc file) will be found at the root of your Plugins folder.

You can't get much easier than that.

This can be done with Reader, but it involves deleting some properties, and adding a property or two as well as providing the correct values for those properties.  I won't post the necessary steps for this route, unless you decide you want to use Reader, rather than PIM-X.

Hey, there was a static prop in the Refuse Relocation kit as well as the timed ones ! Yééé !   (I was going to ask how to make a static from a timed prop ;  change both Timed Prop values to 0 I did ; not sure  it worked...) But thanks for the tip ! I'd like to have the Reader recipe too, as I am more familiar with it than with PIM. Automatas, here I come !!!

you need to create another TGI for the new prop, or the pox will come (now curable and all, but still a nuisance)

OOPS. Gonna destroy the exemplar I tinkered with... and which turned out not to be necessary. And thanks for the tip !

Thank you!

I'm relotting a few pieces I liked to use in my cities. Currently, Pooty : SAnta Monica Promenade. It's supposed to be a straight line but Ia dded some pieces so that it is fully modular :

The 4x2 & 2x2 are fully functional CS $$ like the originals but I haven't been able to make the connector pieces UNfunctional (because I used the original pieces, no doubt.) I should remake them from scratch, shouldn't I ? Sigh...

EDIT : Done. Completely licked into shape, trees homogenized, connecting pieces, although in landmark menu, only eye-candy now (they had 150 jobs each in the previous version ; which could be useful but a bit cheaty, yes ? ;-) )

[Simmer2 23,831]

Appreciate the replies and likes!!!

Last batch before launch.

Re-did the optical telescope: added night lights and several new details including computer banks in the dome.

I accidentally posted this to the Cities Skylines WIP thread. But this is a Carquest for small towns.

BTW what is that gorgeous railway station ?

 

[tariely 4,499]

Looking for willing victims to test a lot of lots (mostly parks, railway stations, but also various whatevers). Please PM me ? Thanks !

Here it is.  It’s a museum in real life but a former train station.

A new city tile... I am experimenting with industry and residential layouts...

Ah, I thought it looked familiar. I have it' of course. but I'd never seen it up close, never having used it. The little glass roofs over the windows threw me !

It is amazing to see a mountain of skyscrapers concentrated at the tiny tip of the island.

Roghue Island RHW !

On these picture you see the highway 7 at the left and highway 5 on ther right joining again on the way to Monreal and Emerald Ville !

Rail bridge and RHW 4 tunnel combi, interchange only two direction, regional traffic will have some ramps !

Enjoy !

New highway, rail, bullet train lines following rough setups placed .

Carquest is mostly done. Need to work on the interior a bit and it will be good to go for next week. I am also making progress on a retextured version that is a Big 5 Sporting Goods store. These warehouse-style retail buildings are ubiquitous across the country and the Big 5 is based on one in Richfield, UT (but won't be completely similar). A small town/rural sporting goods store doesn't exist on Simtropolis really so this actually fills a need. The texturing obviously is unfinished but I have the general model down. The Carquest, respectively, is based off of one in Lake City, FL, but with some differences in texturing (the red-blue motif that is used in some of their other stores for example). I'm also releasing a Snap-On Tools van with the Carquest. Those who work on their cars by themselves need tools to install the auto parts, somehow.

Emerald Ville North RHW !

Mont Real futuristic city isn´t much isolated anymore from the Mayon Province. Highway 2 is extended through Emerald Ville North 1

Some nice twin FAR ramps for local community !

Enjoy !

 

[Haljackey 17,398]

Tight fit. Continuing to work on this corridor.

[Simmer2 23,831]

So glad a lot of people liked the scopes

This is a Bus and Subway Hub and it fits nicely in a roundabout!

Such thing useful?

I need this. We had this sort of idea in past, but for me it's kinda of a pity that these stations have problems with their names (You can't rename it without changing everything and the changes only last for one game session). It will be pretty awesome if you take this into consideration.

Big 5 retexture progress. Going to add some texture detail, roof junk, inside etc.

EDIT

[nycsc4 5,250]

Some progress on the new Main Street Greenway.  It has been doubled in width to allow more space for people walking between the Stadium and Convention District, Waterfront Station and the Waterfront Bus Terminal.  It also connects to several streetcar, subway and bus stations.

Thanks!
