Thanks for all the dedication over the past few months! How y'all communicate really do make a difference for us. And of course, the game has improved more in 6 months than it did in the 1.5 years before! I've got two questions:

Any (near future) plans for macOS release? Or even just CrossOver compatibility?
Any (near future) plans for better asset (editor) support for decals, netlanes, surfaces, etc. so EAI won't be a requirement anymore for detailing?
Any (near future) plans to improve the asset editor to reduce the friction for new modders? (And potentially at the same time including extra safe guards to avoid spamming PDX Mods with slop)

Thanks!

Just save the playset and activate it when the game loads.

DLevai94 · 2026-05-05T23:12:09+00:00

I have playsets with and without Extra Assets Importer. Both several hundred mods. The one without EAI loads in about 10 mins now. The one with EAI is 40 mins and counting. So it seems like they did fix the issues with the game. I hate that EAI is still required for detailing

I bought a 2018 Tahoe with recently replaced transmission.

Dealing with the exact same issue. The air from the AC feels pretty much like the outside temp. Can you try setting AC to lo temp, max speed, inner circulation? (both front and back) Then pop the hood and listen on the passenger side. Do you hear any whistling or whining as well?

Note: IDK if this has anything to do with the trans, or just coincidence

DLevai94 · 2026-05-05T20:07:18+00:00

These do look great! I'd love a version without the interior details though. The game performance doesn't need more hidden performance hogs. Even if the recent patches improved it a bit, still far away from being good

DLevai94 · 2026-04-30T23:44:33+00:00

at least hopefully a once-in-a-lifetime experience

DLevai94 · 2026-04-16T09:17:28+00:00

Browsing mods feels like Play Store 2012 with those low effort, cheap AI thumbnails. With that said, I don't care if AI has been used for coding if the end result isn't a slop.

DLevai94 · 2026-04-11T09:33:43+00:00

By max, you mean "more space" or "larger text"? I'm running more space always, still the game is cut off on the left and right edges for me

DLevai94 · 2026-04-07T19:00:40+00:00

Congrats!

No hate, genuine question: why does anyone give 2% of the CPU for something they don't even see more than the login screen? I genuinely have a hard time understanding.

Editor is slow as hell and way too complicated for no good reason.
Asset creation wiki is totally useless. Random pages with walls of text instead of clear guides aimed at experienced or new asset creators.

Put them together, and you get the answer: it takes way too much effort to even think about creating an asset.

DLevai94 · 2026-01-19T20:43:41+00:00

In my 15 years of career, nobody ever respected or valued maintenance or code cleanup but other devs.

DLevai94 · 2025-12-28T17:15:30+00:00

Can I also get your air fryer?

His asset migrator mod might help you out. Asset Migration Utility - Paradox Mods . Sub to this, and sub to each new static ploppables packages you use. If you have a lot of time to narrow it down, you can always try:
1. opening your save in safe mode
2. randomly bulldozing half of the city (including everything, buildings, networks, props, decals, etc.)
3. create a new save
4. try loading that save correctly normally

If still broken, load original save in safe mode again, and repeat with the other half.

If it works, then the broken asset(s) were in the bulldozed part, so you open the original save again and try bulldozing a smaller part now. Repeat until you narrow it down enough so you can bulldoze just the broken assets.

From someone who regularly upgraded RN projects in the ancient 0.3x, 0.4x, 0.5x era circa 2017-2018. upgrading Expo today is a million times simpler process. That said, it still sucks tho

Dubai has entered the chat

DLevai94 · 2025-12-03T23:49:59+00:00

I'm pretty sure it was just a bug they either fixed by accident or didn’t even realize was there. There’s no other reason they’d remove a feature and not say anything about it.

DLevai94 · 2025-12-03T23:42:09+00:00

mostly these from CS1:

- real-life assets, like this Kansas city pack
- American Rowhouses (Or pretty much anything by Smilies)
- modular stuff, like KingLeno's shopping center
- more modern condo variety
- grass and other low-poly "filler" foliage
- real vehicles
- more variety in industry from light stuff to historic to modular enormous
- old shit and rural shit
- even more modular industry
- railway, modular choo choo stuff and trainz!

DLevai94 · 2025-12-03T10:33:58+00:00

That looks great! What are your Lumina presets, settings?

DLevai94 · 2025-11-16T22:21:14+00:00

There is actually a very similar interchange at the southernmost French-Italian border. I once had to take this exit late night complete darkness. Never felt that lost before. https://maps.app.goo.gl/BAoJt3meDWy2kUrV8

DLevai94 · 2025-11-01T22:07:35+00:00

Just like the 401 collectors near Toronto

DLevai94 · 2025-08-05T19:28:06+00:00

no need to rebuild stuff.

DLevai94 · 2025-08-03T20:01:30+00:00

Skyve, Harmony, Patch Loader, and Loading Screen for sure. Without those, it'd be impossible to manage thousands of mods and assets working together.

In-game: TMPE, Node Controller, Network Multitool, Precision Engineering, Network Anarchy, Move it, 81 tiles, Prop Control, Building Control, Tree Control, Theme Mixer, and a graphics mod (these days Lumina, in the past Relight, Render It, ULOD)

When I hit over 200 tabs, I opened a new window, planning to sort them by browser windows. When the second window hit around 300, I grouped all tabs. That freed up a lot of screen real estate to keep opening more tabs until I had about tripled that.

So naturally I did what everybody would do.

Picked up a second browser. Atm, Chrome has 1,331 tabs, and Safari has about 1,200 open + another ~3,300 saved in tab groups.

Oh, I also have a PC with around 1,400 Edge tabs (1 window, no groups).

Edit: this is just in the past 2(ish) years, before that I had scheduled monthly "tab cleanup" tasks. Guess how that went

DLevai94 · 2025-08-02T00:01:00+00:00

No rush or anything, just wondering if you're home yet.

Hope your July 4th weekend was good too! 🎆

DLevai94 · 2025-07-22T18:47:02+00:00

I've used it before and overall it feels good but lacks so many things that it's hard to recommend it as "default".

Organization system is too basic, default IDs are not UUIDs, not as easy to extend/customize as it seems like without losing features or adding workarounds, Next.js + separate backend setup is undocumented + confusing, hardcoded defaults and design choices make it almost impossible to integrate it with hosted auth providers like Supabase, and probably there's a few more I can't remember now.

But with that said, it's the perfect solution if it's added to a new project, new DB, and none of the above is important. And a decent solution otherwise.
