    City regression, is ok to block future plot sites?

    I just want to have the non-plot buildings suggest that building is in progress. I think I can avoid the future locations of the plots if that could be a problem. My back is hurting today so I can't stand setting and exploring the Blueprint mod but I think I remember some good stuff in there...

    City regression, is ok to block future plot sites?

    I have been thinking about how to regress my Longfellow’s. I would like to put up scaffolding on the future windmill and greenhouse but the scaffolding would block future greenhouse plot sites if I did that. Is it a bad practice to put blueprint items in future plot sites? Is there a good...

    Winter in a cold foggy radioactive wasteland

    I have mostly lived in various Kansas small towns with an exception of two years in Sheboygan Wisconsin. What I remember about Sheboygan is people complaining that the snow and temperatures were unusually warm. That drove me back South. I like the occasional snow storm when the snow is mostly...

    Winter in a cold foggy radioactive wasteland

    My city could go right now for level 3 after transferring it to another character. I want to do a few more things but I am about out of ideas. Maybe I should let Steam update the game now that my F4SE mods are up to date. My last city, nine months ago failed to create a working plugin. I...

    November 2019 city contest tool still flashing pink

    I did a transfer settlement to a new character and the flashing was gone. There must have been something messed up with the other save.

    November 2019 city contest tool still flashing pink

    I did run Fallrim resaver.exe on a save and yes I have sinned. I uninstalled some mods on this save and had some unattached script fragments. The cleaning did not help. Fast traveling and walking back from Acadia still had flashing. The rec plot has stopped flashing, so that is good at least...

    November 2019 city contest tool still flashing pink

    The first screenshot should show that I have the November contest installed. I am at a loss if it works for you. For me even the outhouse by Longfellow's Cabin that was there when I arrived is flashing. All of the Far Harbor stuff from the blueprint menu that I placed is also. I will zip up...

    November 2019 city contest tool still flashing pink

    I finally got the clear highlight to work, except for the problem rec plot. The problem is when I go out of the cell and come back to Longfellow's Cabin the flashing returns.

    November 2019 city contest tool still flashing pink

    I am not able to get the flashing to stop. I think I have the right tool loaded: I am also having a problem with one of the sim settlements plots: You can also see in the background the barrier items from the Far Harbor Blueprint menu are still in the pink. I have fast traveled to...

    Longfellow unlocked save

    If you want a video of Longfellow's Cabin city plan Cordless VII posted a six minute quick tour of the base city plan at the final level. Unfortunately Donald Strong did not publish the video that Cordless VII talks about at the end of his tour. He did publish a stand alone non-Sim City...

    Longfellow unlocked save

    I looked around with my throwaway weekend character on the complex Longfellow city plan. It was very different from what I was thinking of doing. I know that I normally do large structures and interior plots like the complex plan was doing but it seems a shame not to use the space for lots...

    Longfellow unlocked save

    I have a separate character that I rushed to Longfellow over the weekend and the settlement default city plan is at level 0. So I do: cqf kgsim_cpmanager unlocklevel -1 then I do: cqf kgsim_autobuildparent SetAllPlotLevels 3 or is the second command not needed? Maybe I should not be...

    Longfellow unlocked save

    Is there a way to force the Longfellow city plan to the final level? I have never played the mod to that level so I don't know what I should avoid to look different. If there isn't is there a YouTube video of someone that has played it to level 3? I was disappointed when I duplicated part...

    Winter in a cold foggy radioactive wasteland

    Winter in a cold foggy radioactive wasteland, who could resist? I want to go to the land of Stephen King and build a concentration camp. Well I am feeling better, the chemotherapy seems to be working, so lets try to build in my favorite game. Hopefully all trends continue for the foreseeable...

    Q: No Photoshop rule #3

    I do want to vote for MaxGax's repair depot. I would hate to see it disqualified for a technical violation, especially when there is no attempt to deceive in the screenshots. I was just re-reading the rules to see if anything has changed in the last 9 months since I last submitted a city plan.

    Longfellow unlocked save

    Thanks, it has been almost 9 months since I played Fo4 and I was stumbling around in the debugging console when I brought my character to the dock earlier today. Well I guess I will have to dig up a few things in the wiki to refresh my memory.

    Longfellow unlocked save

    Will there be a contest starter save file that has Longfellow's Cabin unlocked? My old save I downloaded from Nexus a year ago doesn't have Far Harbor unlocked.

    Q: No Photoshop rule #3

    I agree and since a few things have changed in the second year maybe this rule can be relaxed. I think it is useful and if MS Paint can to is it really Pohoshopping?

    Q: No Photoshop rule #3

    Do you think you can relax that rule to allow clearly title text like MaxGax did in his October 2019 entry? I liked how it looked and was clearly not attempting to deceive. I am thinking trying Longfellow's Cabin as soon as the King gets off his sick bed and posts the entry thread for November...
