I love the fact that you've been doing all these roof colors, and in so many roof styles! It will give us more variety in the game, and make it so we're more able to create a neighborhood theme that we want!

Default Bermuda!
This is wonderful! Just the sort of thing I've been looking for for a while now. Thank you- my gameplay will improve now, as I LOVE designing houses etc.

I do have a request (not sure what game mesh would match the style of roof though).

I'm trying to create Bermuda right now, and the roofs are easily the biggest hurdle to making the island look right. Eveny roof in Bermuda is white (because they collect drinking water from rainwater and need them clean). I'm having a hard time finding a roof that will work with their step-down tiled style.

Here is an example;

I'll start with what you have here and play around with it, but please let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Lisa

Thank you!

I've had a look at it, I don't really know anything about meshing, unfortunately, but I think it would be possible to make a texture that gives a similar kind of look. The trickiest part is getting things to line up without tiling issues, because there are small scale changes on different parts of the image. It's another style of roof I wouldn't mind having available in my own game, so I'll happily take a stab at the texture as well.

That's really cool info about Bermuda, too, I didn't know about that. I'd love to see your progress on creating a sim version!

omg... OMG! ... YES!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! <3

I've been looking all over the place for this! Now I can finally build my oxidized copper roof that I've always wanted!!!
*runningaroundtheroominextacy!*

I've been searching and waiting for at least two years for this. My churches and other important buildings will suddenly look a lot better!

Thank you again! You have no idea how happy this made me! *hugs*

Thank you so much. I can build the most beautiful houses, only to have to phone it in with a roof that isn't just quite right. Thanks so much for giving us more options.

Have been playing in Aurora Skies - re-doing some of the lots - and am sick, sick, sick of the limited tin roof colors EA gave us. So THANK YOU!!!!! from the bottom of my heart for these. I think I love you!

I got the panties- quick delivery! But I'm not sure where to put them. Just checking- the PACKAGES(?) go the normal place named that. Also, quick request, when I order next time I would like a non-descript package. The last package was decorated in shiny black satin strips saying 'open me in private' and 'send pics to this address' and it was kinda embarrassing lol.

anyway, here are the pics!

The "all" package file causes my game to crash immediately. Not sure about individual files, haven't tried them. But this isn't surprising considering how long ago it was updated.

That's really weird, it's always worked fine in my games :o Did the file get corrupted while downloading, maybe?
I'm afraid I'm not really active in modding (such as it was) anymore, so I can't really offer more help =\
