LotExpander enlarge the lot, ignoring the other lot.
You have to replace the expanded lot to somewhere there is enough space.

Not sure exactly what you are looking to do...
but hmmm, would that not leave the option of having part of your land in the sea...

could you not take the water tool over that lifted land, and create part of your land actually in the sea, then you could level out some of the land and add sand ?
in therory it makes sense.
also you could use that to make a port or anything.
good for lighthous maybe.
It time for me to upload something...
I might play with this idea some with this tool.
well anyway...
good luck
and thanks again andi

You want a tool to lower a lot and /or a trick to place the lot in the sea ? I want it so !
I am not good enougth but the water heigth seems to be a program value, sure it can be changed but in a patch because it is not included in a package or a txt file ( it remain the same in the lot and in the nbhood part of the game. I search in the nbh.txt or pack... i just learn how crash the game !
You know a site allowing re-upload of free build/buy stuff in lots ? Help us to update the list !

there are fake ways I know to accomplish this.
here is a good tutorial for illusion
http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=131752
I know this is not what any of us want but it's a start.
through some mistakes and this program I may be able to make a "real swimmable beach" with real water.
Later when I load sims I will try to find neighborhood that connects close enough to sea, then I will play with some idea's.
Attention Inge...
What Neighborhood file are you using that allowed you to exend the land into the sea?

I know this tuto, sims can swim in the sea part of a lot, you just need a 4 click depth water and 1 click up to the level to place the pol tools. It works bus it is imposible to upload this is a 1 click difference ! More : between 2 identic nbhoods there is a possible diference of about 2 click in the same lot !
you can also alter the terain & the nbhood txt, but after the lot placemnt. The dowload exist here (MTS2_336633_d_unit_Lots_With_Water_Hack.zip) in the mod section.
You have read these threads ? http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=184564

Interesting results with program
I mangaed to use the program.Lets see, My sims were Burried under ground, My roof is floating in air.
I abandoned lot, although everything is fixable easily, The lot itself has some type of bug... grrr, that what you get for downloading others work.
the default mailbox and trashcan were moved, I think this is what messed everything up, possible even the *burried sims"
I have encloded screenshots for the humour of the situation .
first two are of burried sim, and third one is of the property , you cant miss which one this is, its the only one, with a roof in the middle of the air.
Program is GREAT, and thanks

Are you interested of Lots with size 1x1 or 2x1?
Would it be possible for you to make a 4x1,5x1,6x1 lots please? I can only use small size lots and would love them for community lots.

Can I add this download to my download page at my site?
sircoffeebear.com
http://sircoffeebear.com/index.php?name=Downloads
Also there is a link to a word file with a macro, I no longer have word installed, I perfer 602. Is there any other way to use the "old" Macro file without word ? I am curious again at a few of the glitches that cause with SimPE.
Are you going to make any more programs?
Would love to see more of SimPE seperated.
I LOVE SimPE, just so heavy on my system.
I just installed post nuke... I like it, my project will be updated there as well, will keep inital link above , maybe useful for you folks.
Thank you Niol will check it out. You seem to be the turorial "king" if I need help finding somthing may I im you?
patul: would you want to help me with the project, since you been playing with part of my project for some time?
I have some great concepts, I am working on my own sc4 file now. I think with my concept, this tool and the 1x1 lot, with the tutorials and "glitches" I might have the ability to do what I want. Igne, you could help to if you want.
or anyone else.

I think that theese posts are not really in the right place here, keep it clean for Andi's purpose. And if other simmers are interessed, they cant imagine find it in "enlarge lots" !

incredible look here what i've done
the only problem is that the lot expanded, the one the lower side of the road, goes on the road, so we cant place any door or window on the wall.. but this looks to be the only issue

Rascal, hopfully more insight can be given,. BUT NO you cannot make lot smaller iwth this program.
The Code you enter is the image. there will be a picture of letters and or numbers, that is the code you enter into the box.
additionally I got this error when i clicked next after trying it.
IvalidArqument=value of '9' is not a value for SelectedIndex'.
Parameter name: SelectedIndex.

Max3D that's why I think I'd like a version that didn't touch the road at all. Actually I have had windows placed ok over a road? I made a motorway service station out of two lots on opposite sides of the road, and put the tables in the "bridge" that goes over the road.

Puh, so many Posts!
Where can I get it, to reproduce these effects?
In attachment of this Post you'll find a complete set of X x 1 lots (X = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
These Lots are created with base game, so they will work with or without any EP.
Edit: You'll find the attachement in Post #1 now.
Feel free to do this.
The problem is, that the game will add a street, if you replace the lot.
I've an idea for this problem, I will try to fix this in next release.
Actually not. But maybe in future releases.

I am only using this so far to adjust lots when they are in their final place. I am using it as a trick to get joined up housing. I could use it nicely as a way to get houses over the road, or to do what Max did without the associated problems, if the road was not recreated.
By the way, many thanks for one of the most groundbreaking tools to come out in recent times
