HI there all :) I am looking for a good sized park that can be "Plopable" ie. something along the lines of like a Central Park from NY City...... There was a time on the old SC4 exchange site that I saw a big park and I had it down loaded - it covered a good many tiles But since lost it somehow.....

Any ideas? or links?

D

If you really want an exceptionally beautiful park system, try these out from Paeng:

You will need to register an account on Simpeg & on SC4D for the Dependencies, but trust me it's well worth it :)

Yarahi answered someone asking the same question a page back:

There are some over at BriPizza. Just click on the transport menu and scroll a little bit down ;)

Here's a tutorial that might get you started.

I'm looking for anything that will turn off my advisors. I'm tired of them telling me that my education is junk when in fact it's fine. I'm not talking about the pop-up window they make.. I have that turned off. I just want them gone all together.

Have you tried these?

https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/25370-murimk-waterfront-pack-2-sheds-and-rowboats/

Now for something I'm looking for, or rather wondering if they exist or not....

I've just found out about Callagrafx's remastered version of SimGoober's base canals set & am now wondering if he also remade/remastered the other remaining add-ons for SimGoober's canals or not. Did he? If yes, could somebody help me locating each one? Oh, I did find his version of the locks for SG's Canals by the way.

EDIT:

Nevermind, finally figured out how to use the "power search" function on the LEX :)

hi, I am looking for a map, I prefer a high mountainous region with almost no flat land. I already downloaded at least 20 maps, but nothing fits to my taste, can someone recommend a region?

(I like challenging maps)

Thanks :)

Well, if you're patient, there is a Mega Modern Farm Pack coming soon, modern and realistic farms. You will have more farms and variety than you can probably handle. Have a look at my BATthread, where the explanation and pictures tell all. ;)

Meanwhile search for "Nexis" and "CSX" on the STEX to find some lots with farms and cows and other farming stuff.

Thanks CahosRahneVeloza, i'll try them... :)

i noticed many are asking for a elrail over road station,

try this one

https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/21931-modern-overhanging-station-pack/

I always use a trick for this station on a road-avenue intersection, just follow these steps or else you cant use it on el rail over road

1. Place it on your desired location

2. Drag a road underneath it, transforming the el rail prop to glr puzzle piece.

3. Buldoze all of it, including the station.

4. You will notice, the station remains and it is now immortal. Now, place the elrail over road-x-avenue piece in the middle, then do the rest.

5. Dont use the transportation query on the station or else the game will crash to desktop.

Plugin Landmark Props by ralphaelninja

If you're looking... It's here.

@CaptCity: I have this plugin installed:

https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/22400-maxis-prop-names-and-query-fix/

According to the description on the download page it is better than the bldgprop_1 & 2 plugins as well as the all landmarks plugin, is it?

I admit that I've not used this, but I would say that it does sound like it replaces the bldgprop files. If I'm understanding correctly, T Wrecks modified the files to make querying buildings created with Maxis props appear as any other building rather than as a prop. I'll look into using this to check it out...

Does anyone know where I could find a proper Prison? The stuff that's on the STEX is mostly Maxisthings dating back to 2003/2004 and that's not what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance!

where can I find realistic under-rail textures?

default Maxis textures are grass textures, which change to brown/gray when I plop something beside it, leaving all others with the grass texture.

I need consistency with the under-rail texture, maybe a dirty, industrial feel that stays as is even when I plop something beside it.

I have built a railyard, and all the rail lines in the middle get grass textures as there are no lots plopped near them, while all rail sidings have a diff texture because of train stations and other lots.

please help! badly need them. :)

and BTW, if I'm not asking for too much, coul you also please post additions like lots or mods for a more realistic rail yard. links are not necessary, I'll try to find them myself to save you guys the trouble. :) thanks!

alberttwomi - There are quite a few things that will help you develop a realistic rail yard. Here are a few links for you:

BLaM Modular Rail Yard System: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/17367-blam-modular-railyard-system/

ComRail Maintenance Yard: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/15977-comrail-maintenance-yard/

Large Rail Yard: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/15199-large-rail-yard/

NDEX ITS Victorian Rail Yard: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/17944-ndex-its-victorian-rail-yard/

SFBT Rail Catenaries: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=925

SFBT Rail Yard: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1906

Not sure if you have these, but these should definitely help you develop a more realistic rail system in your rail yards: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1996

There are probably some things I'm forgetting, but this is definitely a start.

These downloads SHOULD eliminate your problem regarding the texture problem in your rail yards, since they're transit-enabled custom lots with base textures instead of the in-game, draggable rail.

For your pieces of rail that are not part of a rail yard, this should eliminate your texture problem: http://www.simpeg.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=744df0ff2f86cd7540e115249fffb906&action=downloads;sa=view;down=176

This mod will replace the "chunky" textures of the rail with something a bit more realistic texture.

------------

Looking for a few here, help would be greatly appreciated.
