Thank you! I had been using the ij stair walls and they are wonderful and I am sure I will continue to use. You were correct though, that top one leaves a big hole in the wall and each one is lit individually which can create some very odd effects.

I can't wait to try out your version.

If I take out this file and go back in all lots are there and the sound files all play as normal. I don't have a clue what it could be conflicting with to cause this. I didn't see any special instructions so I'm assuming this just goes in the DL folder.

Awkward.
Are you certain this is what conflicts with that? I just checked again and it worked find with me.
Have you tried deleting some? Does the problem remain?

For the life of me I don't see how this could conflict with a hack or mod. I haven't reached my file limitation for DL's and it's the only thing I'm adding so I don't know. Probably is an issue on my computer's end though and I will just have to sort it out. Just thought maybe I was putting it in the wrong place or something. Thanks and it really is a brilliant mod!

Edit: Just thought I would let you know I did solve my issue and it had absolutely nothing to do with your mod. Problem was due to a recent EP install and I have solved it and your mod works beautifully, thanks!

You are AMAZING! It always bugs me when you either have to leave the stairs as they are, or build a wall around them which looks weird, thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Oh my gosh, I just saw these today, and I am SO excited to try these out! I always hated how the stairs look so out of place, and this will surely make them look much more realistic!! My stairs can now look like they belong! Thank you so much! I had seen Simlogical's version a long while back, but never downloaded them. Now after reading your instructions and seeing the wonderful results, I can finally fix all those horrible out of place stairs in my game!

So many comments, so many thanks ... I can only add one more Great work.

Regarding the fact you had no idea that anyone already thought about it - this is normal as the community is growing, time passes by, new releases are made quite regularly, people stop modding, new people start playing ... It is an ocean that is not easy to oversee I am glad I am swimming at it tho

I really REALLY like the house that you used as an example at the bottom of the page. The one with like 3 levels and a piano. Is that availible for download or could you make it pretty pretty please?

I LOVE these because they make rooms with staircases look awesome -- but only if you have all the walls up. I play with the front walls down, and unfortunately, it always drops these down too. I'd love to have the staircase wall be visible without having all the walls up. Is this doable?
