Farms seldom get much love in SC4.

In real life, one of the things I do (together with a group of like minded friends and a couple of other Australian investors) is purchase degraded or abandoned farms in very marginal climatic areas of low rain or poor soils and we return them to forest via various local partnership programs. It's one small way to combat climate change in the face of rising fossil fuel use (given the Australian governments' shocking track record, it's the least some of its citizens can do :whatevs:)

This set of farms uses a brand new farm field type and is based on the above principle...although in SC4, all they do is provide I-Ag jobs :P

Double bravo. One in RL and one here. (I always wish you would do more farms :-)

Exporting, making simple lots and uploading stuff to STEX for modders because PIM-X or iLive won't work on my W10 anymore.

How does it come? Both of them is supposed to work on WIN 10, you just need to keep and save the DLL files for PIM-x. At least a few years ago I used PIM-X on a WIN 10 laptop and it worked fine. I set the *.exe to launch in XP mode (in the properties) also admin rights etc... For me it worked back then. But since I'm working 99% in PIM-X and making lots, and I'm gonna need to update to WIN 10 too, I'm going to use these apps under win 10.

We tried to solve problem with couple of people in Krioworks during the spring and summer. Nothing helped, not even help from BSC.

Those walls are too thick. If the tower has the same walls then there wouldn't be room to move around inside the building.

@Krio Wrong. The thick walls end at the tower base. They have been added at a later time.

Google it.

First of all, it's not my (or anybody else) job to "google it" when questoning how something looks in the game. It doesn't matter does it have normal-sized walls IRL when it looks plain silly in the game. You don't lose anything by slimmering the outer walls, instead it will make the BAT look better. Now the thick walls steal attention from the lighthouse itself.  And even if those white textures "are real" you could do better ones for the game.

Wrong again. I never said I was going to release it and if I did, you do have a choice to not download it.

Nobody is telling you how to do your "silly" BATs. Of course I could make it more interesting but I like to stick with reality as much as possible.

You are entitled to your opinion but that is all it is.

Now back to the game.

Let's see if this works, been a very long time since I posted any pictures.

Trying to build a city tile without depending on I-AG and playing around with terraces.

How much angery in a response for a constructive criticism. But I must point out, that Google Maps isn't realistic but very low-render in most parts. I could say draft-render even. What would you lose to make it usable for the game? Nothing. Even just the lighthouse tower would be great addition to the game.

@Krio

It's subjective and @Simmer2 has already stated he doesn't wish to discuss those walls. Please let it go.

children should not play with heavy industrial equipment. Simple square cardboard boxes are safer.

...if you don't like 'square cardboard box' shaped buildings, then don't download them. Simple really.
