@criquette-was-here discovered how to move individual road tiles using SimPe. SimPE’s editor unfortunately doesn’t allow individual road tiles to be added or deleted. However, it is possible to do this with SimPE plus a hex editor. It’s not very user friendly, so I’m working on a program to automate the process, and I’d strongly recommend you practice a few times on a throwaway neighborhood first. But if you want to delete a road tile, here’s how it goes:
That is amazing @hypersaline! I should update my ’Field Notes’ with that tutorial right away. I always hated the fact that there’s no way in SimPE to just choose the unwanted road tile and simply remove it. Thank you for this. I’ll definitely going to use it in the future neighborhood project I have in mind.
My last couple of posts have been about neighborhoods with more than one type of (working, real, actual) road in them. It does take a decent amount of SimPE fiddling to get this working correctly, so be warned, but here’s how you can add a second kind of road to a neighborhood.
Hypersaline went really far in making multi-textured roads in same Neighborhood! This is a great result @hypersaline!
This is something I was thinking about really long time. My thoughts was about adding new sets of textures via shader, so that they would work with seasons. But what you did is really outstanding! It shows how we can add perestrian crossings, bus stops and so on without any levitation issues that come with hood decoration based approach.
You don’t always have to be outside to have nature moments, I discovered just a night ago. And remember, your nature journal entry – which can easily become your #FieldNotesFriday entry – can be as simple as a few sentences or as poignantly short as a haiku.
Here’s a picture of my latest entry. I’ve typed it out below.
Was there something different about the Bradford pears this year? Did you see it, too?
Think back – back 8 weeks ago, when the nights were still chilly and the mornings were cool, but the days were warm and you thought Spring is here. There were no leaves on the oaks, but you saw the Bradford pears doing what Bradford pears do: bursting into white blooms to decorate suburban roadsides (and some…
One day it’s freezing precipitation, the next it’s sunshine and playing outside. I’m embracing the highly variable winter weather we get here in North Texas. If it’s warm and sunny, I enjoy the chance to get out without having to layer up much. If it’s frosty and cold and windy and maybe even wet, I appreciate that it actually feels like winter. Some people say “if you don’t like the weather in…
I’m not in the mood to write right now. But I’m doing it anyway. I wasn’t in the mood, or didn’t prioritize the time, to jot a few notes over the week about my time outdoors. But I did it today. This week I was, however, in the mood to be outdoors, and that was nice after last week’s cold snap. So this week is about success (including several good times outdoors with my kiddo) and a significant…
Beauty and the Beast had me believing that when I grew up someone was going to fall in love with me and gift me a super library. Thus far, I have been wrong. But hey, this is beautiful and would make the perfect gift.
This weekend I got my new bag and the first thing that seemed natural was to load it up with some ice cream sandwiches, grab a camera and some field notes and head out for adventure.

literally of course someone as pea-brained as andrew doyle would look at terry pratchett’s body of work and decide soul music is the one best-placed for adaptation
