A few years back I finally discovered the joy of playing for badges and skills (don't know why I ignored this for so long), and I built a lot of basement gardens for my city-dwelling Sims who had no yards. Naturally, I used the Arboreal Ascendancy steps to get down to the gardens. I wanted wood floors, but there were no matching green ones available (that I could find) and I had no clue how to make my own. So it's been on my to-do list for quite a while. Now it's checked off.
There's some matching gate recolors here, as well; because, it's hard to stop once you get going.


I wanted to make some columns and a new gate mesh that better fit the style of the Arboreal Fence, but that was not a good idea. Why? Because the amazing HugeLunatic has already done it better than I could hope to. Find them here. She also included a pretty nifty remake of the Arboreal Fence that you should check out
Technical info:.
All the textures are from the original EAxis floors and gates. My only contribution here is recoloring them in GIMP and making new packages.

About Me
I don't mind if you include any of these meshes with your lots**, as long as you provide a link to the original MTS page for the mesh. Posting my mesh on any site by itself, or claiming it as your own work, would be considered rude and a breach of my trust and love for you as a fellow simmer.
**Above policy does not apply to Remote Control Thing - it contains an NPC that could possibly corrupt a neighborhood when removed, and I doubt that downloaders would appreciate something like that hidden in a downloaded lot.
