Wow! I logged on this evening not realizing this had yet been approved for uploading. So, here goes the answer session:

does the interchangable mean i can have the darker blacktop and the yellow lines(default)

Yes, that's what that means. Just don't install the file named bsi_rc_defaultreplacement-streetstripes-euro.package and you will have yellow stripes.

YES YES YES YES!!! I LOVE THIS!! *Downloads* I hate Maxis' stuff!

Maxis no longer exists. The Sims belongs totally to EA now.

You're very welcome! And I wasn't allowed to say it in the initial post, but I also have some other funky default replacements at
our site including money tree replacements and a baby bottle replacement that isn't all icky green.
But you probably already knew that.

Haha. It's weird of the things you don't think of when you're from America!

Ah, but I AM from the United States, and our roads, at least in this part of the country, look nothing like the default roads in TS3! Seriously, I'm beginning to think all of the yellow-gray in TS3 is some sort of tribute to Sims peeing all over the place in previous games, since they're much less prone to that in TS3. Back in the olden days, we even had white stripes down the middle of all our roads. Now we have the orange stripes on two-ways, with white stripes on one-ways. I have always missed those white lines, even more so because I hate that yellow color, which is school bus yellow. We have solid white stripes alongside the outside edges of the roads for "fog lines." Seriously, in bad fog those lines are the only thing that will keep you from driving right off the road.

Would it be possible to have yellow lines at the edges of the roads in some streets, like in the main town for example?
Just a thought, as we have a lot of double yellow lines here!

Actually, I think it would be possible to have yellow lines at the edges, but all streets in your town have to be of the same design since they all pull from the exact same textures, and those textures lay over each other in some pretty bizarre ways. As soon as I get my head pulled out of playing (may be a day or three), I'll look into it.

OOh. This means its possible to have other types of roads too, I guess? On my wishlist: dirtroads and cobblestone. I guess my medieval hood will be reborn, maybe sooner than I thought

Not to worry--they are already on my to-do list.
I will most likely upload them to BogSims when they're finished since it takes so long for files to get approved here.
And to the rest of you, you're welcome!
