    THANKS!
    I found:

    <Furniture>
    <AlwaysVisible>-99</AlwaysVisible>
    <TrulyAlwaysVisible>1</TrulyAlwaysVisible>
    </Furniture>
    in a bunch of layout files. Don't know what the -99 is, but I assume the 1 is boolean. Changed my layout and voila!

    Thanks for the likes and suggestions. I am going to allocate some time for this.


    Go ahead, It's not like I invented the cloverleaf interchange ;).

    Just a bit of editing and full cemetery plazas... thanks for the advice Kipate.

    Should I upload the plaza patch? I used diScOpolis' models and nicko's lawn texture to make 11 different cemetary plazas, but don't know the rules on hijacking or modifying.

    -This is basically just a roundabout. My thinking was that by eliminating any "loops" with the angled approach, I could save space.
    -Best to use the "8 orientation" directional option.
    -Just pay close attention to the flow of traffic.
    -Once you have the roundabout in place there are dozens, if not hundreds, of variations for fly overs/unders and approaches to choose from. I tried shrinking it down, but the smaller it got, the less realistic it looked. If you try to make it round instead of square it gets much bigger.

    I gotta thank,
    nicho: for the awesome "placeholders" mod. I use this more than any other mod. Sorry,,, couldn't find the link for it.

    Yeah I was wondering the same thing. Those 4 stacks interchange looks so nice and neat.

    last pics of my city for this challenge, cant keep on playing due to random crashes.. using a backup or reinstalling uim did not help, after an hour of playing it starts crashing every few seconds like previous save.. and all previous cities.. since it doesnt give a reason for crashes i cant fix it, seems like there is a timer that only alows a certain time of fun per city.. so ill play csl now

    Hopefully I can finish that freaking airport within the next days...

    And by the way, but Blimey, Old Chaps, you are into some serious stuff
    right there, even modifying on your own just to get a better result for your
    cities' facilities :)

    So, I guess, @FussionM and @Mr.X² can now be part of the jury for the category winners? ;)

    Anyone know how to get rid of floating trees. Tried deleting but it's apparently a game tree and not a mod tree as. There's no beer can in the center to click/select and delete as shown in the first image. Have removed all buildings and plazas in close proximity. It's in a lot of my competition screen shots and I really suck at photo shop.

    I get trees like that if Im zoomed in between tall buildings plopping trees down and dont realise I have backed up into a building. The first indication is when the tree I'm putting down does not show. I then know it has gone on to a building.
    Can be a huge pain in the butt to remove them if the trunk is to far inside the building.

    Hi, i saw nice projects here :) this is mine : Laadwadesh a city in Bangladesh. I watched a documentary on Chittagong on tv and i wanted to build a city like that, there also influence of Dhaka... There will be not rhm (it doesn't work with english roads in cxxl) but I don't need many highways anyway. This city isn't suppose to be beautiful but realistic (i hope :D ) I don't know if i'll have enough time to finish it but it's progressing : cxl_screenshot_laadwadesh_172.jpg

    And if it can help someone : there is an idea of a railroad crossing.
