What's the best way to make a hill work in a town layout? I'd like to try it,
maybe a river, too.

Mostly I'm wondering how to get roads to it. Is there a 32 X 32 road
baseplate with a sloping road?
I suppose I could just rotate a regular road plate so that it slopes, but that
messes up the grid. Maybe just stick the house on a CRAPP? (grins, ducks,
and runs)

Definitely. Currently the only jobs in LCadville are at the chapel.

Without the duck & run, that's not such a bad idea... you could do that, and
then "build out" the CRAPP with bricks so that it looks less, um, crappy.
Or, some ambitious fellow could ldraw a sloped "roadplate" by building it out
of grey, green and yellow sloped bricks.

You could create a nonexisting piece to make a hill.. (hides from purists) Oh
by the way, could Lcadville use a Disco? I was thinking it was finally time for
me to download LDraw this weekend, and a I have been planning a Disco as a
warmup project for a while. Besides, it must get boring having church as an
only option for "going out." Also, I have a suggestion. I think the town would
look better if you added some shrubery and trees and stuff, because the town
sort of looks like it was built on a big parking lot. Just my opinion, but I
think it may look a little better if there was some grass. But, the entire
thing is the greatest and is a really groovy idea! Keep up the good work, to
you, as well as all of the contributors!

I wanna see how you make a disco ball. :) Greg, Can the disco have an '80s
night and an Anime Music night? :)
That reminds me: Anyone know if Pov-Ray can include image files? Like a jpeg
or bmp? I wanna make a movie theatre, and I have a great picture to use as a
poster.

I was thinkin' along the lines of a 1x1x1 with studs on five sides covered with
2x2 radar dishes, but I'm not sure how it would look. I'm going to try
different variations on it during the holiday weekend and hoeplully get it (the
whole thing)posted to .dat by Monday.

I was planning an 80s night all along :) An anime music night wouldn't be bad
either. I love the theme from Evangelion!

That reminds me: Would it be all right if I used non-conventional colors? I
want to do the windows trans-purple.

If any of the other vehicles appeal to you, go ahead and use them as
well.

Nope, not Star Wars. Something else. ;) Although I wouldn't mind plugging
The Iron Giant...

What about the gold Insectoids dome? It'd only be a hemisphere tho...

You mean a color that is not available? There really isn't anything stopping
you, but I'd prefer colors that are available. What about Trans Red or Trans
Orange?

Cruel Angel Thesis (opening) or Fly Me to the Moon (closing)? Personally I
like the version of Fly Me to the Moon sung by Megumi Hayashibara. I heard it
on a CD so I'm not sure which episode(s) are closed with it. I haven't seen
the Entire series yet. :(
I picked up "The Best of Anime" CD a couple days ago at Tower Records. Other
than the first three tracks and the last track, it is very good. They had it
at a listening station so you can sample it if you find yourself at a Tower
Records. :) Email me if you want to know more about the CD.

Umm, actually, I have never seen it, I've just heard the song (and in MIDI
format, even!!) I am sort of into anime, but I think I like manga more.
