K 505 TERRAINS MOD - UNIVERSITY UPDATE

Welcome welcome to … University!

We prefer Oxbridge to Britechester but that’s fine

Oxbridge is a small town full of old stone: on the ground, in the cobblestones, bridging the shores and in the century-old buildings.

As a pedestrian town, lying in the grass to study or contemplate the void of your future is an important activity, deserving the best comfortable grass available. Our gardeners have secrets of the trade that won’t be share here - sorry!

Instead, let’s talk technical.

The 3 files of University don’t include nature, as per usual. That’s because Maxis hadn’t made new grass files but use the ones from, what we suspect, Base Game, City Living and Seasons. Which explain why without the update you could still use University without many differences.

Ok, so when you’ll add the University files you’ll get our textures on everything stones. The « wally » file has nothing to do with the famous grampus. It’s the file for all the building facade and more ( chimney … everything building-related )

We’ve always strived to beautify even more each world and Oxbridge allowed it since the grass was already made and looking thru the files gave us the opportunity to get the buildings files. We are happy with the results so far, hope you will too

You might see some places in Foxbury that still have original files. That’s because we have yet to find those. Like said before, they are certainly in the larger packages: base game, city living and seasons.

We’ll make an update as soon as we find them, expect it in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, have fun with this update!
