This is a retexture and slight rescale of my old Norwegian House Set 2, released back in 2006 under the BLaM team label. While I wanted them to be colourful then, they turned out a bit too saturated for the game. This time around they should look better. The houses are based on typical mass produced houses you'd find in Norway (Probably Sweden too) during the 1990s and 2000s. They come in a range of colours, 14 in total. The default is a primary colour, with white frames. Other variants have a base colour with a different colour on the window frames, etc. The colours are: All white Red Yellow Green Blue Orange Olive green Purple Pink, Brown with green frames White with red frames White with blue frames Yellow with green frames Dark Grey with Dark Grey frames. There are two types included, R$$ and R$ - We chose to include these, since the game needs more R$ that doesn't look decayed or overly poor. Just like real life, families with lower income can also afford these. They live comfortably, but usually with somewhat simpler landscaping outside the house. Stats: - 3 R$$ lots: 1x2 (stage 4), 1x3 (stage 3), 2x1 (stage 4) - 18 residents - 3 R$ lots: 1x2 (stage 4), 1x3 (stage 3), 2x1 (stage 3) - 30 residents All grow within the Euro tileset. R$$: Consumes 2 units of power/water R$: Consumes 1 units of power/water R$: 1 air, 1 water, 4 garbage, 0 radiation R$$: 1 air, 1 water, 4 garbage, 0 radiation Install instructions: Place the files/folder into mydocuments/simcity4/plugins I recommend just simply placing the "Glenni" folder as it is in your plugins folder. That way you can easily organise my content. As these are GMAX renders, there is no Darknite version. There are extra images in the archive, no need to keep these if you don't wish to do so. Dependencies: None. Custom trees and parked cars visible in the screenshots are from override mods on existing maxis props in my game. without these, the props will just simply be default props within maxis prop families. Credits: Thank you to Tyberius06 for modding, and combining models and desc in family prop IDs, and building family IDs. I hope you enjoy these, I also have newer projects on the way, see my BAT thread for more info: https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/2216-glennis-bat-showcase/?page=43 -

Functional Cul-de-sacs, VOL2, by Mattb325. --------------------------------------- Following on from the Functional Cul-de-sac (Vol1 release), I present another type of cul-de-sac: the housing estate, or master-planned community. In these sorts developments, a developer will purchase a large tract of land and provide all of the services: roads, curbs, gutters, water, sewerage, street trees, street paving and street lights. The developer will then subdivide the land, build the houses to a specific set of designs and then sell off these individual homes and allotments to buyers. The result is a ready-made community with HOA, uniform streets, houses and street-scapes. They are supposed to look different from the surrounding neighborhoods and prove very popular with young families and first-time home buyers. The growable lots contained in this download mimic these sorts of developments: each lot is 6.5 acres with many cul-de-sacs, curving and diagonal streets, decorative ponds and open community spaces all with brand new houses aligned to these streets. The houses all come from real house plans from a Texas home builder who builds many such estates. Surprisingly, no such lots exist in SC4 and these streets are all network enabled. The two 10x10 lots contained within this download will provide sufficient variety to give an homogenous new suburb look. They can be zoned together or spaced apart with grass & park areas between the 10x10 lots to mimic the sort of community facilities many of these housing estates provide. --------------------------------------- WHAT THIS DOWNLOAD DOES: This download provides two new growable lots of a 10x10 size. Each of the lots is network enabled in various spots to connect seamlessly to the surrounding streets and roads. Each lot is restricted to grow ONLY on low-density zoning on the Houston and Euro tilesets and will not grow on medium or high density zones. Each lot has a different arrangement of medium wealth houses and a uniformity of street trees and plantings. Both of the lots have identical stats meaning that the game will not favour one type over the other. The population numbers of the lots conform roughly to Maxis' low-density formulae of approximately 12-20 residents per house. These lots cannot accidentally grow; you must use the CTRL key while zoning. --------------------------------------- HOW TO USE THIS DOWNLOAD: There is nothing especially tricky to get this to work. Just make sure you have the dependencies, unzip and install to your plugins and then use the CTRL key while zoning low density residential to get a lot that is 10 tiles wide and 10 tiles deep. --------------------------------------- WHAT THIS DOWNLOAD DOES NOT DO: This is not a mod, so it will not alter the standard street ends that either come with the base game, are installed with the NAM or are installed with any other cul-de-sac mod. This will not interfere with, nor conform to, SAM street types. These lots use CPs textures (which differ from the base game) to ensure that these housing estates have their own unique look, right down to the street textures. --------------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTES - READ!!!!!: With anything new, it is important to spell out a few caveats: * Because these lots are network enabled, these lots will never upgrade. I recommend using them in conjunction with standard zoning to achieve vibrant, realistic suburbs that are sustainable. * Because these lots are network enabled, if they abandon, they will not recover: you will need to correct the issues that caused abandonment (crime, jobs, commute, demand), bulldoze the lot and let a new one grow. * I have chosen the 10x10 lot size deliberately to be a unique lot size that doesn't compete with other custom lots, but if you have other 10x10 low-density medium residential lots in your plugins, they may grow instead of these. * I have chosen the 10x10 lot size deliberately to ensure that the network enabling doesn't interfere with the NAM drag patterns for creating curves, fractional angles and so on. My testing so far has indicated that this is unlikely to happen, however, in certain situations and placements you may find that the game attemts to draw FAR or curved streets. In the highly unlikely event event that it occurs, it's not a big deal, just bulldoze the surrounding streets to alter the pattern. * Once the lot has grown, if you don't see cars, automata, etc using the lot, just drag the street tool through the lot (be sure to use the pre-planned streets as your guide) and the automata will soon follow. --------------------------------------- Like all of my work, these are suited to both CAM and non CAM cities alike. Stats below. --------------------------------------- STATS R$$: Lot size : 10x10 Growth Stage: 1 (Low Density Zoning) Bulldoze Cost: $40 Capacity Satisfied: R$ 684, R$$ 432 Pollution: 18 (Air)/ 15 (Water)/ 34 (Garbage ) Pollution Radius: 5/6/0 Power Consumed: 36 Mwh Water Consumed: 60 Gal/Month Building Style: Houston and Euro Occupant Group: Medium Wealth Residential Building --------------------------------------- NOTE ABOUT DARK NITE vs MAXIS NITE: This file contains a series of lots only. However, some of the dependencies will require you to select either a maxis nite version or a dark nite version. If you use the dark nite models, you will need a dark nite mod.

Aliana Estates Growable Houses, by Mattb325. --------------------------------------- A set of eight new homes based on real house plan designs for 50'lots by a texas home builder. These houses, both orthogonal and diagonal are all on 1x1, 1x2 and 2x2 lots. These are designed to complement the large 10x10 cul-de-sac mega-lots, but I have released them seperately as many folks would prefer to just zone in the traditional manner. All lots grow between stages 1 and 4 and each house has identical stats with occupant values in line with Maxis homes. These are restricted to the Houston Tileset only. Like all of my work, these are suited to both CAM and non CAM cities alike. Stats below. --------------------------------------- STATS R$$: Lot size : 1x1, 1x2 and 2x2 Growth Stage: 1-4 (Low, Medium and High Density Zoning) Bulldoze Cost: $143 Capacity Satisfied: R$ 19, R$$ 12 Pollution: 1 (Air)/ 1 (Water)/ 4 (Garbage ) Pollution Radius: 5/6/0 Power Consumed: 1 Mwh Water Consumed: 2 Gal/Month Building Style: Houston Occupant Group: Medium Wealth Residential Building --------------------------------------- NOTE ABOUT DARK NITE vs MAXIS NITE: This file contains a series of lots only.

House 15028R, by Mattb325. --------------------------------------- These are modern R§§ homes that I made for myself based on plans from an American Pattern Book. They are unimaginatively called 15028R but are charming single story houses in the craftsman bungalow style. There really aren't many single story houses in game, so any extras are always welcome in my book. I have also mirrored one house which mimics suburbia. I have made a number of different lot variations: 1x1, 1x2 & 2x2. All of them are growable R§§ on all tilesets. They have similar stats to Maxis homes are suitable for CAM and non-CAM players alike. --------------------------------------- STATS R§§: Lot size : 1x1, 1x2 & 2x2 Growth Stage: 2,3 & 4 (low, medium & high density residential zoning) Bulldoze Cost: § 20 Capacity Satisfied: R§ 20, R§§ 13 Pollution: 1 (Air)/ 1 (Water)/ 4 (Garbage ) Pollution Radius: 5/6/0 Power Consumed: 1 Mwh Water Consumed: 2 Gal/Month Building Style: Houston/Euro/NY/Chicago Occupant Group: Medium Wealth Residential Building --------------------------------------- NOTE ABOUT DARK NITE vs MAXIS NITE: This download contains TWO model files; one for dark nite users (and other night-time darkening mods, such as Gizmos night-mod) and one for the standard Maxis nite. You must choose only one file - depending on which version you use. If you are unsure whether you have a night-darkening mod installed, then choose the Maxis night version. If you use the dark nite version, you will need a dark nite mod.
