Simple Siding Wall Set





I only make walls when I am in the mood or desperately need them. Walls are tedious to make and its hard to appreciate the effort required once they are finished since 2/3 of the work is hidden most of the time when you use them. But i needed more siding for my Willow Creak makeover, so I pushed through and made this set of four walls with 12 styles. These walls now give me plenty of options for siding (which was really lacking) and the hard work paid off.
I have bundled them together by type, so both clapboard walls are in the one archive below, and same with the Board and Baton styles. The packages are clearly named if you don't want one of the types included.

The build mode item features:
  • Basegame compatible
  • Each comes in auto-trim, no trim, and left&right trim (for those pesky 1 tile corners)
  • 44 colour options
  • Custom thumbnails
  • Walls found in Siding category of Build Mode
  • Costs $4
  • All wall heights available
The individual archives contain the  package file(s) and preview image(s). Extract using WinRAR or WinZIP and place the package file in your mods folder and look for them in your game. I hope you enjoy.

    3. idk how to explain this but, when you download cc the file appears on the screen, and the cc that does work for me has a blue thing beside the file name (i have a windows computer) and when i try to downlaod this it is like a white thing beside the file name, and that file don´t work

    4. Probably because you are downloading an archive file and trying to put that in your mods folder and skipping the extraction part. You need an archive extractor to get the files out otherwise the game cannot read the file. It is all mentioned above the download links that this needs to be done. Read through this installation guide for mods and find the 7-Zip section to find a download link for the program. It is very helpful as a lot of cc creators bundle multiple files into archives for ease of downloading. So be sure to read through and grab the program.

    6. Easiest way to tell me what file type it is, is right click on the file, and go to properties. A new window will open. Under the general tab (which it should be on by default) It will tell you what file type it is. If you can report back what it is, that is more helpful then a picture.

    1. Good to here. Most things (excluding script mods) that are in a .RAR/.ZIP/.7Z file are archives and need to be extracted to work ingame. So be sure to check the file extensions if somethings not showing up. Now you know how to extract, you will be able to apply that knowledge to a lot of other creators ;)

  10. Love this set, my only wish is that you could get it with horizontal trim, instead of just vertical. You're an incredibly talented content creator, thanks for your time, talent and creativity!

    1. Hi! I just use the ingame trim to compensate for that which also gives the bonus of a more 3D look to the facade.

  11. Hi I’m having an issue where I open my game and this specific cc doesn’t show up. When I open the game I get a text box that says one build mode item removed because I don’t own it.

    1. that would be another issue, i have never seen that come up for any sort of wall. The simple siding was an earlier file and supplied as an RAR archive, double check it has been extracted.

  12. Hey, i'm experiencing the same 'items removed' issue as well.
