It's 60's i look for 70's

There's this set from @moto.kloss which may or may not fit the bill. The cars are from the 60s and 70s, but they're modeled after European vehicles, so some of them would look out of place on American-style lots.

Unfortunately, there's a bit of a weird gap for the 1970s when it comes to American car props. You'll find a lot of cars from the 50s and 60s in various prop packs, and @pclark06 made a number of props for cars from the 80s and 90s.

The only prop pack I can think of with a substantial number of American cars from the 1970s is @CT14's lowrider prop pack. However, because the cars are modeled as lowriders, a lot of the props aren't a great fit for run-of-the-mill suburban lots. That said, the set is worth checking out, and I think it might have some props you can use:

A Eucalyptus plantation (tree farm) is available for download.

Here:

 

That looks amazing! Does the tree farm also come with 1x1 "crop" pieces and even, looking at that picture, diagonal transitions?

Or is that simply your stellar lotting work in action- which is separate from the Tree Farm lot itself?

Either way- cool stuff.

Hearing an Italian liking these American cars does make me laugh. Most people on earth would prefer an Italian car, O.K a Ferrari or a Alfa Romeo, but I think I prefer the Fiat over the boat car!  

This is as crazy as Germans going to Indonesia for Oktoberfest or Swedish people getting their flat-pack-furniture from Turkmenistan!

Give me a Coupe any day, sure some old American cars are real pretty but as driving machines, well they just aren’t any good.

I think cars made between 2000 and 2010 are even uglier.

I haven't had the chance to test the lots myself yet, but if I've read the description correctly, the file comes with a separate 1x1 farm field lot that uses a prop family to generate the eucalyptus trees.

I would guess that the sections of "field" at the front of the lots (between the farm yard and the roadway) are a part of the main farm lot itself, but designed in a way that's meant to blend in with the surrounding fields. Regarding the diagonal transitions, it looks to my eyes like they've been masked with clever MMP work, but I could be wrong.

Should I add the vortex generators to the blades? (the little triangles with the dirt dragged behind)

On the other hand -- you could be quite RIGHT !

I don't mean to offend any readers but i have to say, these are some of the most hideous vehicles i have ever seen, more of a ship than a car! 

Hence the term by which this generation of cars are remembered: the "land yacht" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_yacht_(automobile))

Though if you are referring to the wooden styling, that was its own long-lived trend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodie_(car_body_style)

But what can I say? The past is a foreign land...

I just traded in a 17 year-old Ford Taurus in mint condition.  (A crash-sensor for the airbags had gone bad and Ford wasn't making parts anymore.)  It was virtually silent until you punched the gas on that V-8 -- then she purred like a kitty!  And it was so smooth, you'd have thought you were sitting on your living room sofa.    And there was a time when US automobiles were highly-prized and much-sought-after the world over.  Back in the day -- they were the ultimate luxury "ride".  But that was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away......

I'm still not sure at what angles to export it...

I would pick one "Maxis diagonal" and just one other.  That should cover most opportunities.

God I love the Hind so much. I would appreciate a non crashed version of this beauty.

I suppose you don't happen to have an mi-26 or mi-28 lying around...? (I think you already posted an MI-28 somewhere)

Some scenes from across Bolivia and the Andes. More in my 2020: Bonus Pictures update here.

 

Love it!  Bringing back fond memories of Sucre, where I spent a month.  Can see the bar where I took Salsa lessons, the icecream parlour by the plaza, where I would watch the parades, even the zebra crossings, where they had people dressed up as actual zebras to contol the traffic!!!

And then of course the ubiquitous red brick slums, interspersed with the ubiquitous  Eucalyptus trees.

Stunning work as always!

@art128 Yes, I have the Mi-26 and Mi-28. I'm going to start exporting the Mi-24P from today

Farm modding, while not especially difficult, is a little bit trickier than the usual RCI stuff, which is why it seems the BSC cornered the farming market so to speak. 

This is all modded as a farm and its associated fields, just like the maxis ones - so if you zone a 10x10 space, the farm building (the fenced bit+driveway area) will take its space of either 3x8 or 4x6 and the fields will be populated around it. Same if you do a 20x20, a 6x6, etc, etc, the game will populate the remaining zone with the Eucalyptus tree farm fields. These fields, just like the base game farm fields, are functional and functionally tied to that farmhouse.

The diagonal transition is just using that little conifer 1x1 lot which I released a couple of weeks ago (that little 1x1 lot is a swiss-army-knife). With any of the farms I make, you can go nuts with MMPs (in the corner you can see I've hinted at what can be done with aubrac's walls and girafes grasses).

I'm also going to make a cork oak plantation using Girafe's evergreen oak props 

Anyway, the Bade Rd Apartments have been released.

@art128 The propellers look a bit distorted but it's not my fault it's SimCity 4's fault. 

This is what the LOD looks like (I made it as tight and simple as I could).

I still can't get over the level of detail in these models. And they could be in the game is even more mind blowing. Well done @Barroco Hispano!
