How to make a custom lot with the Lot EditorWhat you need:
• SC4BAT
• Plugin Manager
• Lot Editor Make sure you download all 3 files on the page.
• Gmax
1st: Open the SC4Bat.

Zoom in on the Top view in the Top-Left corner. Make a box that is very small.

See? Very Small.
#2: Click on the hammer button on the top-right corner of the right part of the screen. Click BAT>Quality(Select Draft)>Export. Make sure you save it as draft quality.


Save it as anything you want but I will save it as project001. This is very helpful for later. After you press save it will show pictures of the little box in different zooms and angles. Do not X out of the box. When it is done it will tell you.

When this comes up press yes.
#3: Open the plugin manager
Find your item and drag it into the parks category.

Then follow the instructions in the following picture.

When you are done with that click Apply. Then close the Plugin Manager.
#4: Open the lot editor. When it asks you for a lot to edit, search pz1x1 and click the one selected in the picture.

Change the highlighted areas to 90 and 50.

Now delete all of the props by dragging a box over them on the right part of the screen. And change the base texture.

Go to the building tab and press “replace item”. Find a select your building, I named it project001. Then put it in the back corner of your lot.

Now add props and trees and you're almost done!

Then click the Save As button and save your new park.

And that is how you make a custom lot using the lot editor! You can do this with other things like editing police stations or schools. Just drag your building into the right category in the plugin manager and open a building (in the lot editor) in the menu that you want your lot to show up in.
Have fun making parks and buildings!
