Quote from: Evillions8 on March 08, 2011, 03:27:51 PMI do suggest using BSC textures for the trail parks because it would better.  Just you'll have to edit the tone of the textures to fit in SM.

Thank you for your suggestion Evillions, I'll check it out :thumbsup:

Quote from: Evillions8 on March 08, 2011, 03:27:51 PMWhenever I try making lots, I end up with a one-tile grass texture and the rest is what I placed.  What building did you use to make the textures stay as is and not changing into a grass texture?

I know what do you mean and it's very annoying. This is the trick to avoid it. After making the lot and before saving, check one by one all the tiles of the base texture of the lot. If all of them stays the same, save the lot. If one of them turn into grass or something else, remove the unwanted texture and replace it with the texture you want. Then save it :)

Quote from: Simcitler on March 09, 2011, 12:41:33 AMAllthough I do not play SimMars (until yet), I just want to say that your lot work is great.  &apl

Thank you for your comment :)
SimMars can installed separately from Simcity, so you'll have 2 Simcities with different plugin folders, different region folders e.t.c.. No need for manual plugin replacemend e.t.c., just double click to SimMars icon ;D

This is the B.S.C. version of the Martian trail paths. What to you think?



Do be honest, i prefer the original SimMars paths. They can be very useful for the creation of "mini roads" to connect the road with some parking lots. However i can use both of them (original and B.S.C. versions) ;)





And some surprises ;D
3 plazas, a playground an a mini spaceport (sorry, only eye-candy)

Keep your colonists safe with the Military and Rescue Base (sorry, only eye-candy too)

I'm working those days on a mod, that replaces almost all Maxis buildings with SimMars buildings. For now I reloted all R$ lots.

Thanks :)
Sure it's a lot of work. According on my calculations, this mod will be ready somewhere in August.

Need help identifying a couple buildings, and a couple questions.

First of all:

The big blue building. I haven't found it in Sim Mars. Where did you get it?

http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/5131/simmars10.jpg

Same with the big blue building in this one. The design looks familiar, like it was made by the same person who did the coruscant that's in another one of your pictures.

And the blue building in this one.

The reason I ask is because I'm working on PIM-Xing some new high stage high-tech industrials, and at least the last one would fit in well. Second question:

May I please use some of your re-lotted Sim Mars lot files as the basis for some PIM-X work I'm doing, to provide more buildings for CAM? This necessitates being able to redistribute the lot files once I'm done. Reason: You did a fantastic job of lotting these buildings; I couldn't do a satisfactory job in comparison. Furthermore, it seems to me an obscene waste of good lotting for me to throw it all away and attempt to repeat the feat.

I would give you full credit, of course.

"Sure it's a lot of work. According on my calculations, this mod will be ready somewhere in August."

I've dealt with Maxis lots, in a project I attempted. Good luck, man. It's really going to try your patience.

Those buildings are not from SimMars. You can find them from here and here. You can also find props to make your own Coruscant buildings. Be careful however, those buildings are huge and have plenty of details!

Yes, you can. However, you'll need the textures and the props of SimMars. Check their forum and ask for permission.

Thank you, Terring! Because of the number of buildings, which I don't think were made by one person, I doubt I can get out of requiring Sim Mars as a dependency. Oh well.

I wasn't aware those buildings were props from the coruscant mod...hmm.

Terring7

My mod "Memories of the Colonists" (you can find it in my signature) has SimMars as a dependency.

If in case the STEX is down when looking for SimMars, at least you can find and Download vanilla Sim Mars 2.0 from

Well, I asked the question because it seemed only Terring's file was down. Then I noticed other files down. So, I deleted the post to keep from looking like a moron.

Clearly I failed. <_<

Oops! I did it again! I didn't update the link of my mod. Click into my signature again to get it.

Sorry for the double post... You need SimMars Beta 3, not 2. Due to the size (277MB) the file is hosted on a file hosting site. There is no need to register for downloading.

I just finished with the dirty industries (I$)



I think I add too much white smoke. At least it's better than the black one ::)



Dirty industries can now fit better in a cleaner, futuristic environment :)
