How does this only have 1 comment?! This is EPIC!!!! I love this, I would never have thought of this myself, it seem doable but very very time consuming and for that I definitely think it should have a star...Great job

Default How I made this lot

Not really that time consuming. Getting the original vision is always the hard part.

I just fooled around with the TS2GridAdjuster until I got the curve that I wanted from the front of the lot to the back, then added on a curve from the left to right sides of the lot (relative to current elevations, so that I wouldn't lose the original curve), then a final height adjustment. Since I kept notes as I was working, I've attached the intermediate screenshots of the GridAdjuster and results in-game.

I used the "curve" option of the TS2GridAdjuster.

This roof is pretty complex, which is why I included screenshots of the GridAdjuster parameters that I used to create the lot. Mainly what I did was: to have a vision of what I wanted the roof to look like, and then to experiment with the GridAdjuster until I achieved a look that I was happy with. Would it help to see the lot before any adjustments were made? Would it help for me to try to explain why I chose the parameters that I did?

I'm trying to make a tutorial on how to use the "curve" option of the GridAdjuster, but it will have to be less complex than this roof.

Oh Mootilda, I love all your Fledgling Flats and this one is no exception. One part of my Pleasantville game is only occupied with your flats and I love to play them. I also have an area at my University which uses your flats. Here the scholarship kids are living.

Thanks so much - pls keep them coming!
