    Do you think you could make some mini versions out of these? Personally, I am kind of missing buildings with only two or three floors :D

    Wow, great work! And well, I mean, the buildings with only flat rooves could also be placed within an American city. And I knwo that we have lots of American-styled buildings, but I am personally missing some transition buildings. You know, not like downtown, but also not like a suburb. Something in between, with only two or three floor levels :D

    Hey Axel, thank you for your effort (y) I was thinking of Chicago and Pittsburgh as examples. I think your block already match the building style (or are quite similar). Here some examples:

    Pittsburgh North Side:

    upload_2024-5-2_21-57-22.jpeg

    So that looks quite close to your blocks, they just are not that tall (mostly one fewer floor). And the angled rooves are probably more looking like Belgian rooves within your blocks, but that is probably a nuance :)

    Chicago Old Town:

    This is great! I love it because of all the options these lowrises give to a player, and I will use them to recreate parts of my American city. But I think you can use these almost for any Western looking city :) Thanks a bunch!!!

    First shop corner is shaped.

    Can someone explain to me how the layout file was created when we didn't have a Layout creator from Altiris in the beginning? this would help me a lot to make my mods faster
