Wallpapper and flooring outside of lots

I find it really annoying that the wallpaper/flooring outside of lots can't be changed: it's frustrating to have random walls missing wallpaper in certain places and ugly concrete floors, which not only don't look good, but also is bad for the green eco footprint scenario. Since we have mods like T.O.O.L to be able to place objects out of lot, I really wish there was a way to change wallpaper/flooring out of the lot boundaries somehow, maybe in the buildmode you go to when not playing as a household

    I take it you are talking about a community lot. These can be edited from World View. Select it and click the Edit button.

    When I talk about editing outside of lots, I mean places like the area outside of lot area but still linked to housing; I'll include images for examples of the places I mean

    Grims quarry is a community lot and can be edited like I wrote. Since this is a special kind of community lot with different uses you need to be careful off what you change. It is recommended to take a backup before making changes. In the online gallery you can find complete replacements in case something interests you.

    For hallways you can do some limited changes using Twisted Mexi's T.O.O.L I recommend looking at some of his tutorials.

    @jpkarlsenThat photo is from the lower part of the Stonestreet appartments not a community lot though? I honestly just wanted to talk about how I'd like there to be an option to change wallpaper/flooring since I love the T.O.O.L mod but obviously it doesn't cover objects out of furniture

    @Idiosyncratic53 I see what you mean, I'd love to do that too on those apartments. With TOOL we could even make those areas liveable. It's free real estate!
