Thank you! I've been waiting to see the tile for the 'missing' sidewalk tile..why Maxis didn't put it in the original game I'll never know, but at last you've corrected it!

Looks like I no longer have a reason to always use the dark asphalt texture.

This is one of those things that you have always wanted but never thought about.

I'm devouring your curtains -- they are lovely/tasty.

This is so great! I never used the gray one because it always looked a little off. Now I want to build a whole suburbia-themed neighborhood with this recolor.

PS I can confirm that it looks correct without lighting mods.

Yes! It drove me absolutely buggy that those didn't match.

Preposterous - the very notion of a driveway that matches the sidewalk! Oh, wait, you went and did it? HOORAH, HOORAH! I've also been meaning to make one for ages, but never got around to it - thanks so much for this

What a lovely idea! Unfortunately, when I put it in my game, it shows up as solid black in both the thumbnail and when placed.

I have a Mac and EPs through Bon Voyage only. I do have CEP installed and working. Is there an add-on to the CEP that I need?
Me? Sarcastic? Never.

awww.

No, no CEP required for this. Just a straight up recolor of the NL driveway. Do other recolors of the driveway work for you? Have you had any issues with files that have been compressed? I've checked the image size, and it does have the right ratio for Macs.

HL, Sadly I am having the Showing up black issue.

I run Windos 7 With all EP's except BV and the CEP is installed with all fixes. Other Recolours of the driveways work for me, but yours show up oddly .

Oh yeah that definitely looks right. I had the same feeling as yours when I lay down my driveways. Before I found this recolor, I had to use invisible driveways.
