I definitely didn't notice the blurriness all this time! When I looked at the screenshots, I noticed the huge difference in the Maxis snow and your snow terrains as well the beach terrains. I liked yours far better than the Maxis terrains for both snow and sand. Thank you for doing something extraordinary like this!

Error at extraction files from archive!

I'm having the same problem as ASAsims...the .7z files error when I try to extract them. I use WinRAR and to extract them I select the file, right click and choose "extract". I've had this same problem with a few other .7z files. I say "a few" because some .7s files will extract for me and some won't.

Thank you For those who can’t unpack it, I added a link to 7zip in the post. WinRAR should work fine though, I have used it to unpack .7z files.

Edit: @PlatinumPlumbbob: The snow and cliff blurriness applies to lots as well, not only the outside. And I want to make the edges of a lot to be as little noticeable as possible, so that’s the opposite to you I can’t have them completely seamless as there will always be those dark lines on the edges

yeah the blur hurts my eyes...not joking I have eye probs. Thanks!

btw...do you have to use a cliff and get the separate beach one too? They both have beach files.

They don’t both have beach files Cliffs have a file that replaces textures for beach rocks from BV, which I explained in the post.

You're making the game better and better :D

so, with this mod, the default replacement of the rock terrain by Castaway's lava rock (here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/s....html#msg315680 )won't be needed anymore?

Yes, you can have only one cliff replacement, otherwise they’d conflict with each other. My black version is like cliff in Castaway, just HQ

First water, now land. Hmm

Great job!

With the cliff textures, is there a preview pic that shows all three? (old,grey,black) So we can choose which one we want?

I can't seem to find it

Well, black is black, grey is grey, and old is the kind of brownish one, it’s in the first and second picture.
Also, sky has already been fixed, here is the link, and if you want animated clouds, they can be found here

This is so beautiful. This game is getting a major graphical overhaul thanks to wonderful modders like you. Being my favorite of the franchise, I'm so happy to see the love going into all of these beautifying mods. Thank you so much for doing this. <3

Okay, I just couldn't figure out which one in the pic was grey and which one was the old.

btw, thanks for the links on the sky/clouds. - I'll check them out.

Edit: I can't get the clouds dl, its "not found" when I click the link. Do you know of any other links? I'll see if I can find it through Google.

Open the links in a new tab (just right click on the link – open in a new tab), and then they should work, at least they do for me
