Sidewalk Mod

[Jayster]

Whoa... been away from here for two years! Yikes! Well I am back, and I am looking for a particular sidewalk mod. I believe it is a sidewalk/Maxis base texture replacement mod. Here is a picture of said mod in action:



The picture is from Uzil's MD titled "Zeroing City V.4." This is the link to the update the picture is in (4th picture down): link

It's either a sidewalk mod or lots and lots of time spent in lot editor!

Thanks for the help!

The more I thought about it, the more I thought it was one of those textures. Wish the description on the LEX showed all of the textures...

Thanks a lot!

Actually, I think this may require more research.

I'm using the New York Slab in my CJ/MD, San Diego; it doesn't look like that.

Here's a sample (see behind the church):

EDIT: I think that this file is what you want. See Texture set 10 (numbered 9 in the files)

And I was hoping it wasn't that one  in the description it says that it doesn't work with diagonals because "BUT no diagonal textures were included"

Hmm... I may just have to get back into all of the modding programs and figure out how to create my own sidewalk mod/Maxis base replacement using that texture.

Thanks APSMS

It occurs to me that he might have meant that the textures did not turn diagonally, not that they did not work on diagonals. IIRC, the game always pics the same sidewalk, regardless of road orientation, so the only issue is that diagonal sidewalks don't conform to the diagonality of the road but rather to the grid (which is always NSEW).

I might try firing up the game just to see.

Perfect, thanks a ton! It's been awhile since I've played the game. Looking forward to getting back into it.

SO what you're saying is that the sidewal texture doesn't even rotate no matter if the road is layed horizontally or vertically?

SO if my slabs are rectangular and not square, they won't rotate but on vertical (S>N) roads there will be visible vertical rectangles and on let's say horizontal (E>W), there will also be visible vertical rectangles instead of horizontal?

I'm asking because I am trying to create a base texture that I plan on using on my streetside modd that I want to make. Here'S THE IMAGE:
