Where are they all???? Went to look up a roofing tutorial in SimWiki and all the links are gone. Any replacement tutorials?

I would like to know how to do this, a roof with no edge.....

They haven't used the roof but floor tile, then they have shaped it with CFE. The first one might have used the black fence edging around it as well. The curved roof tutorial might help so you can kind of see how they might have possibly achieved that. There is a curved tutorial on SimFan UK -or was, the site has moved. https://www.simfansuk.com/wp/ It won't be the same of course but I think the same principles would apply.

There is a good database of available tutorials here, more up to date than the wiki. http://ts2tutorialdatabase.tumblr.com/

Thanks @Aysarth looked there already, but most of those were written by people no longer involved, and took their tutorials off the web, 99% of them are gone.

I use this occasionally, you might find something under Houses - Roofs Tutorials
I suggest using Wayback Machine; if you're not already aware it saves sites from previous dates for you to look at so if you have the link to the now unavailable sites you mentioned you'll probably find they've been saved there.

CFE- the Constraint Floor Elevation cheat, it allows you to shape walls and floors. If you have no experience with CFE at all I would suggest starting off with something easy such as a dummy level wall (4 click tall wall) or a curved bridge.
