    A beautiful building but it's the first one I can't connect to a road so it will actually work. It builds nicely and looks impressive. I can't find the treebug fix mod, you should provide a working link for us to find that easily. I really hope I can get this working.

    It has no base, but that does not mean it does not connect to the road. Just put it rather close to a road.

    kipate,
    I've tried that but perhaps I'm placing it too close to the road, I had the building overlapping the roads. I just searched the TreeBug fix mod by presumably Pharmists and found the page no longer exists.

    Hmmh, maybe make some test:
    Make a crossing of roads in 45 degree layout and have the angle at 90 degrees.
    Then, rotate the building with additional Shift Key, and put the side with the entry as close to the crossing,
    so close that the edges at the side touch the roads (not overlap). Then it should be close enough.

    kipate,
    Thanks for your advice. I went back and placed the building many times. I found the trick seems to be which side of a road you try to build it on or from. I had tried it from one direction with no luck, then turned map around and placed on other side and found the sweet spot. It takes a little patience to get it placed the correct distance from the road but it now works.

    kipate,
    Thanks for more advice. It seems tough to find the entrance since the building's three sides look so similar. I did try rotating it with the shift key too. At least now I know the trick to placement. :D

    Hey, here is the tree bug fix by pharmist. Sometimes is hard to find stuff here using the site's search feature, so I sometimes just use instead google and add xlnation as keyword.

    Monty,
    Thanks for the link, it works and didn't crash my game. I'm not sure what it does yet but am hoping that somehow when I build future roads I can somehow get different trees. Still tricky to place building but now I know where the front is. :LOL:

    It simply fix a problem with many types of trees not showing propperly when they are called in a layout file. Many modders place specific trees and plants in their mods, but the game will only show the same trees over and over because of that bug, that patch solves that problem.

    Monty,
    Thanks for the info on what the TreeBug fix mod does, now should make mods look better. I hope you'll post the link on your Overview page description so you don't have to keep wising up future downloaders. Perhaps the xlnation staff will post it if allowed.

    I've downloaded a bunch of cool mods the past two days and my next video will be a tribute to mods and modders.
