this is great
just the bed colour in the picture the colour does not look right in that room i think you should change it, it annoys me when nobody thinks/bothers changing it because thast the colour that almaticly comes up

also when u take your screen shots in bird eye view i notice alot of people do the same leave the grids there i think it inproves the pictures if you then click the ... button (where you can save and exit the game) and take the picture after clicking the ... in birds eye view because its removes those evil grids

I love this the roof is amazing with the tiles, the boolpropping must have taken you ages! Also how did you get that window on there?


It's ok, we all laugh-snort occasionally!

Thank you all for the good feedback I ideally share your compliments with the entire Mod Squad, of course! -

Didadragonfly - We meet again Nice to see you here at MTS2!

D4nny - You might find it difficult to believe, but I purposely chose that "default" colour for the beddings I wanted them to be as... saddening as possible, and that recolour is definitely saddening!
As for the bird's eye pictures, the button to swich to top-down view is only available in build mode (therefore, with the grid lines visible); I had a camera hack that allowed me to simulate the top-down view using the 1st person camera (usable even in "..." mode), but it doesn't work any more with SSN and up.

Mihura - Prego (you're welcome) !!!

Lauralaima - You guessed right BTW, that window, if the user looks at it carefully, is clearly detached from the roof But there is no way to actually attach a window to a roof like that The original Retroville version had that window placed even further from the roof, I've moved it as near as possible.

Why, can't they call the room service? Not all the lodgings have a restaurant (very few have it, afaik...). I know, not all the rooms have a dining table, but usually you go to vacation in small groups...
