California girl needs info about trees

My first fall/winter playing as well, but yeah. Only some fir trees still have green, rest of trees are bare until spring (except for dead tree in halloween stuff, will always stay greenless). Expect snow to cover your houses and trees come DEC 1 update. :)
  • Well, shucks. Maybe what I should try to find are some pics of parts of "showcases" that are of the same section of a Springfield, one when the trees are white (from last christmas ... i see lots of pics on here ... ). and a corresponding picture of that exact section of the same Springfield when those same trees were green. Or even a comparison of the same snapshot taken from spring and now on Halloween. I HATE that the trunks on three of the types of trees are so similar-looking.

    I do think it would be a cool feature if EA could let us toggle on/off seasons in design mode. Too hard, I'm sure ...

    Thanks for answering my question!

    Annette :)
  • yeah I totally agree. When I first realized what was going on I thought it would be nice to identify which are which cause some trees are better suited for certain areas, guess we'll have to wait till spring and rearrange them.
  • I go by memory on which trees look better :lol:

    Winter gets even harder, as even the bushes look completely different :shock:

    How man can you identify in this picture :lol:
  • I mean I remember which colour in the store, like how much they cost :P

    So, yeah, it only works if I'm buying them, not if I have to rearrange :lol:
