how to change road to match hood terrain type?
I am currently playing with
this hood (Emerald Heights), but I noticed after installing a road default replacement it wasn't showing up for the hood. Then I noticed that seems to be because the game thinks the hood is using a lush type terrain - it has a strip of green grass between the maxis road and footpath.
Apparently the terrain type cheat doesn't fix this properly - ugh.
I found this thread that discusses this issue and how to fix it (see link below), but hex editing is well and truly beyond me. I downloaded a hex editor and opened the extracted
SimPE file, but then my brain exploded trying to work out what I was looking at and how I could possibly follow Moo's instructions...

I'm wondering, is there an easier way to fix this problem? I did think of using Moo's hood replace program to replace the terrain with the exact same sc4 map, but of the desert type. However, the map in question doesn't seem to be available for download.
