Hello! I am a cc maker from China. I recently read your tutorial about how to make column and I think it's fantastic!! Many of our cc makers still don’t know how to make columns, and because of China’s network restrictions, most authors can’t use tumblr, so I wonder if I can translate your tutorials into Chinese and publish them on games forum in China? I will add your link and declare that the tutorial is wirtten by you!
Hi! Of course, you can.
About the tutorial. Information that the specular map doesn't work indoors is incorrect. I wanted to fix this in May, but Tumblr didn't save the changes. I should try again.

About high-resolution textures. If you choose the 2048 version, read this information (or this one, or this one). Please note that the HQ mod for objects and the CAS HQ mod are two different things (I don't mean this mod). For high-resolution textures to work, you don't need to download additional files for all game objects.
Download (choose one size: 1024 OR 2048):
SimFileShare | Google Drive | Mega
You can find information about the texture size difference under the cut.Â
Texture size
1024 and 2048 in the package name are the texture sizes (1024x1024 and 2048x2048, respectively). Choose what you like best: high-resolution textures or smaller package sizes and in-game performance.Â
Choose the 2048 version only if your object quality settings are set to high.
It is worth noting that the difference in quality is imperceptible from a distance.
Polygon count
MAXIS' fences:
Name / One Tile / Rounded Deck / Rounded Deck (Large) / Rounded Deck (X-Large)
All railings come in 4 lengths (from one tile to three) and each length has a left and right option.Â
So, 8 options for one railing. And there are 56 items in total. Wow, this is more than I want to see in my catalog.
If you want to remove unneeded versions, you need to un-merge the package by following this tutorial. Inside there are 8 version packages and a texture package. Delete unneeded versions and merge the package back by following this tutorial (optional).

You can do what you want with my creations. Just don't put it behind a paywall or something.
Enjoy!
Additional notes below the cut.
There are several issues that I cannot fix because they are game issues. EA quality ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Â
When using two or more tiles, one of the staircase (the platform) is higher than its place.
The last step is higher than its place.
When using a stair with a foundation, the first step is displayed incorrectly (a repeated step takes its place). After the last update, the same thing happens when you put a staircase outdoors.
However, these issues have always existed, and I only noticed them now. Everything else works correctly.
