Do you still get a pesky white pick-up roaming your street despite using the full horse-drawn carriage set? It turns out the problem was caused by a mistake found by @CorinaMarie in the Maxis exemplar 10910000. But now this file overrides the Maxis bug, replacing the pick-up with a carriage in a new colour variation. Important: in case you have installed the Maxis Air Force Base, please make sure this patch loads after that. Do you enjoy these automata? Check out my other files and as usual stay tuned for more coming to the STEX! justforfun- 3 Reviews

I heard it again today, not for the first time. This time it was while building power plants. I'm wondering if the two are related. Anyone ever hear the sound of a horse whinnying? So weird. There are no horses in my city. Suddenly I hear this horse sound.

Finally some serious freight is here! The 7th instalment of Victorian carriages replaces Maxis trucks with horse-drawn automata. The pack contains a replacement for the in-game flatbed, the industrial van, and the 6 semis, for the transport of crates, sacks, coal, liquids, and lumber. It also replaces the standard cement mixer that appears when new buildings are under construction with a detailed Victorian equivalent. All carriages are drawn by strong and hairy draft horses, the big ones even by 4 of them in two rows, which means that for the first time the sets are double-articulated. In other words, they have two joints that turn independently. The open trailers come both empty and with 10 different cargoes to add variety. Sooo... with a total of 118 carriages and 139 characters featured in the 7 packs + Mounted Police and Riding Gentlemen, the Maxis vehicle replacement is now complete and you can -in fact you need to!- delete the Maxis_cars_suppressor_optional.dat file featured in the previous pack. DEPENDENCIES: https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33912-animated-horse-drawn-carriage-automata-pack-6/ At this point your Victorian streets should be properly crammed with all sorts of horsey vehicles. Please review and... happy deliveries! justforfun -

Here comes the sixth instalment of horse-drawn carriages, to replace the last remaining Maxis cars with 3 Victoria carriages, a caleche coach, 5 phaetons, a Royal Mail van, and a van to override the "escape beater". It also replaces Maxis moving vans with a wagon and a bigger carriage drawn by draft horses. If you notice, the draft horses are larger and more robust and hairy than the standard ones. The carriages of this pack are all articulated. As usual, the coachmen and passengers sport Victorian attire and faces that you can't see at normal zoom levels but still give your sims some individuality. The car automata replacement is now complete! In order to block Maxis freight trucks, though, you still need the Maxis_cars_suppressor_optional.dat file. Please make sure the present version replaces the old one.

This fifth instalment of horse-drawn carriages brings civic vehicles to your Victorian cities, replacing Maxis standard ones. It includes fire brigade, ambulance, police van, mayor's berlin, waste wagon, recycling wagon, 3 Hansom cabs as taxis, schoolbus, omnibus, hearse, icecream cart, and a float of "The Times" newspaper which I imagined as a replacement for the TV van. Your mayor will now be able to travel in style on a grand coach with 2 footmen, the "LM" sign on the door standing for Lord or Lady Mayor. Keeping in mind that in the early 1800s London had a zero-waste policy, I made a recycling wagon with sections for ash, organic, and scrap metal. The schoolbus and the omnibus are each drawn by 3 horses. IMPORTANT NOTICE ON UDI: Due to a limitation in the game for which I can't see a workaround (namely an automaton cannot at the same time have the class ID of a trailer vehicle and that of a specific civic vehicle such as a bus) my choice was between making realistic articulated carriages unable to perform city missions or mission-able carriages that did not bend when turning. I chose the first. This means that only the carriages that are not trailer sets have full functionality for UDI missions, namely the Hansom cabs, the icecream cart, and the "The Times" cart. You can still drive all others, and the mayor's coach will be able to throw money, but they will not activate the relative city missions. CHOOSE YOUR FIRE ENGINE: I made an exception for the fire engine: for the people who want to perform UDI missions on it, I included a separate file with a non-articulated carriage. For this I also reskinned the in-game fire crew to make it more similar to the firemen on the carriage, inasmuch as could be done without modifying the crew's models. So, if you want a missions-enabled fire truck that doesn't bend when it turns, leave the UDI-missions-fire-engine_optional.dat where it is. If you don't care about the missions and prefer to see an articulated automaton roam your streets, just delete that file.

Happy trotting! justforfun -

Here is the second instalment of horse-drawn carriages to bring your cities back to the (sim) Victorian age. These animated, articolated automata replace more Maxis cars and consist of 5 Landaus, 14 Berlins, 2 Broughams, and 3 chaises for a total of 24 carriages, most of which are drawn not just by one but by a pair of horses. Each carriage comes with a different coachman or driver, and a Landau also features 3 passengers.

This file contains 4 horse-riding Victorian gentlemen automata that will replace Maxis motorcycles.

Here is a horse-riding London policeman (also known as "bobby") that will replace your standard police cars in patrolling your cities. The uniform is that of Victorian times, and he even sports appropriate moustache. My SC4 adventure with horses actually started with this fellow, and again I must thank @rivit for his invaluable help in getting the bobby and horse to work together smoothly. Sim malefactors beware, the valiant mounted bobbies are out to get you! -

After countless weeks of work and many more headaches, here are the first horse-drawn carriage automata ever made for this wonderful game. This pack consists of 20 Victorian carriages that will replace as many Maxis cars in roaming your cities, namely 13 Brougham, 2 Rockaway, 3 Stanhope, and 2 Victoria carriages. The best part is that they come with animated horses and most are trailer sets, so the front and back wheels move independently. The download also contains the file "MaxisCarsSuppressor_optional", which allows you to suppress most of the remaining Maxis cars; but if you don't mind having both cars and carriages in your streets at the same time, just delete that file. I owe a HUUUGE thank you to @rivit for his generous and extensive help in getting the modding to work. It took a considerable amount of experimentation to find the right positioning and rules, and this pack wouldn't be here without rivit's amazing help. I plan on making more packs in the future, with different types of carriages that will eventually override all Maxis cars. It may take some time though, meanwhile hope you enjoy your chunk of Victorian traffic, whoa, whoa! justforfun -
Here I am again. I wasn't really motivated this week, so there were'nt any new entries. As I told you, I update irregular, but next week the christmas vacation begins in germany, so I'll have enough time then. Therefore I made a little mmp work: There are no mmps in the last picture. It's all the Arden seasonal tree controller (you may have noticed I really like that one ) Have a nice evening guys! Replies agunter999: Thanks!
