Hey guys, I was wondering if anybody could tell me what the most popular or "nicest" tree mod is available on the STEX. The maxis trees are just so boring, they just won't do anymore. Thanks

Thanks! I knew about the Mac forum, I just thought someone might have something that performed the way the airport tram does so that I could avoid the whole process. Alas.

Personally I recommend Cycledogg's No. 7 Tree Controller. It has several different options, easily selectable from the installer. In my opinion it's one of the best tree controllers around.

You might also want to have a look at some tree controllers made by Pegasus, which looks great too.

Can someone please help me find the gravel road that goes into the field (the road on which the tractor drives)? I don't know whether it's a draggable road or ploppables, allthough most likely the latter. Also, I think I've seen that it can be connected to streets.

Any help appreciated.

Looks like the ones that are part of Chrisadams' Rural Renewal Project. You can get it here, along with other things that were developed for the project.

Hey Simtropolis, has been a long time since my last visit.

As I was reinstalling the game and LOTS of plugins, I remembered a ploppable building from when I last played, about a year ago.

It was a 1x1 or 2x2 tall building which, when queried, showed a helluvalot statistics of your city/region (don't remember) like caps etc.

Unfortunately, I cannot seem to find it any longer. Does anyone know which building I mean and where I can find it?

Thanks! =D

Hey Everyone,

I create most of my cities near waterways (either coasts or rivers) and I have a problem with creating sunken highways, etc due to the fact the terrain level is too low to use the ground diggers. Does anyone have any recommendations for a map I can use for a new region that has lots of water access, but allows has high enough terrain near the water that would allow me to build sunken networks? I guess it would need to be something with steep cliffs lining the coast instead of softened coastlines. Any help, or additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Those are made by Tabi. His site is here - click on the "BAT" link, then scroll down a bit. I believe they're props. You'll need to make your own loys with the Lot Editor.

It seems like you are looking for a finished map to download and use. I can't help you with that, but I can give you some suggestions, based on the way I work around this particular problem.

From a blank, water region map:

  • Open a small city tile and raise some land in God mode.
  • Switch to Mayor mode, establish the city, and use the PEG CDK Leveler to get the perfect elevation for coastal lots. Then level the rest of the raised land to be at the same elevation.
  • Use the "Ground lifter 15m" to elevate a small area.
  • Switch to God mode (to save money), use the leveling tool (not the smoothening tool) to lift the rest of the land to 15m as well. Lift the land all the way to the tile border, at least on one side.
What you should end up with is a small land tile with the elevation at a minimum to still be able to use the hole digger (-15m). Also, you can easily create seaports at perfect sea level using PEG's leveler, and know that the surrounding slopes are 15m high - leaving them perfect for NAM on-slope pieces. Some retaining walls are recommended, though.

For neighbouring city tiles the process is much simpler: Open the new tile and press "Conform edges". You should see that the land bordering the developed tile is raised. Select the leveling tool from the God mode tools, place your marker as far towards the edge as possible, raise the land, and.. tadaa! Continue, one by one tile, until you've created the region of your dreams.

Pros with this method: The region is entirely yours, created from scratch just the way you wanted it.

Cons with this method: Quite time consuming..

Hope you found this helpful - and sorry for the long post.. 9.gif

I was wondering what the best airport sets and packs are. I obviously want ones that work together. And I prefer more realistic looking lots.

I've seen the jeorg's airports and the AC airport pack. Are there more than just those two?

I would appreciate it if someone could point me toward an airport set and some additional lots that may go with it. Preferably puzzle peices. Or something with unlimited customizing options.
