Read a book?

What's a book? Is that like an ebook or?

Oh! You can swap the crosswalk style from that sims one to a proper one!

Turns out, in Double Deluxe/Base/TSData/Res/Catalog/Scripts/floorPatterns.txt there is:

Code: 
# Road patterns for European roads



floorPattern "road_crosswalk_european_00"

material "floor_road_crosswalk_european_00"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog



floorPattern "road_crosswalk_european_01"

material "floor_road_crosswalk_european_01"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog



floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_european_00"

material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_00"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog



floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_european_01"

material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_01"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog



floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_european_02"

material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_02"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog



floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_european_03"

material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_03"

routingCost 1

#notInCatalog


Disabling the not in catalogue makes them show under "all" in floor tiles, additionally, if you want them applied to all lots and like me, you're too lazy to go and manually replace them all, you can just swap these values:

Code: 
floorPattern "road_crosswalk_00"
material "floor_road_crosswalk_00"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalk_01"
material "floor_road_crosswalk_01"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_00"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_00"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_01"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_01"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_02"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_02"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_03"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_03"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog


To:

Code: 
floorPattern "road_crosswalk_00"
material "floor_road_crosswalk_european_00"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalk_01"
material "floor_road_crosswalk_european_01"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_00"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_00"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_01"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_01"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_02"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_02"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog

floorPattern "road_crosswalkend_03"
material "floor_road_crosswalkend_european_03"
routingCost 1
#notInCatalog


Bada bing bada boom you got yourself real crossings on your lots. The downside is that it only works if you have the crossing as part of your lot, if it's not then you'll still see the sims-specific style on the neighbourhood itself.

But, it does mean it can look like this!

I've tried switching to Firefox, but given my tendency of digital hoarding (open something, forget about it, keep doing this until the power goes out or the laptop is unresponsive – restart). Much to my dismay, Firefox kept crashing because it couldn't keep up with my tabs.

I started using Brave browser and have no complaints. It's like Chrome, but supposedly without the Google's all-seeing eye monitoring your every online and offline move. (However, Brave's based on Chromium, the very same software Chrome is based on, and which is – you guessed it – developed by Google...) I also tried Edge, but the mobile version is downright awful (the desktop is pretty neat though), and I live for the sync function so I got to keep my mobile and desktop browsers the same.

I think the only browser I haven't tried yet is Safari, because I own nothing Apple at the moment.
