Recommended stuff?

Well, please download NRaas MasterController, DebugEnabler, ErrorTrap, Overwatch, since there might be occasional lag spikes. The world being large and off-grid for the most part, might have a few routing issues(not too many) with sims getting stuck in some random places. These mods reset sims, remove errors, fix bugs and therefore reduce the possible lag.
I did not encounter too many issues personally, but it's best if you run it on an 8-16 RAM computer.

Notes: All sims and their homes are pretty much base-game. Some world objects require World Adventures, Ambitions and Late Night(and maybe then some).

CC-free!!!

Enjoy!

Hi @earthgirl, I have just had my first peek at 'Rocky Streams' in game and I'm very much looking forward to spending more time exploring this beautiful world. Thank you for sharing your creation with the simming community

UPDATE:

I fixed a glitch caused by the stairs on the Festival Grounds that made sims walk through them instead of using them normally. I did the same with the stairs on the Private Beach leading to the bistro which caused a similar weird glitch with sims running through the deck.

The new version of the world with the fixes has been uploaded.

Here's a bump and some Winter/nocturnal pics, for those interested who have Seasons.
















To have an idea what the town looks like, if you haven't followed my other thread.

Hi, Earthgirl

It looks lovely! The Winter pictures look nice and cold.

earthgirl

@RFlong7 Thank you.

I just added some more summer pics to the first post. I think I'm done with the screenshots.

Last night, I discovered a couple of lots with crooked edges, across the Rivera household: Ascending Shack and Gloom Park.

The new version with the fixed lots will be up soon. If broken lot edges bug you as much as they bug me, feel free to re-download in about half an hour.

Another update:

- I found several routing issues around the Peak Caban, where the sim was running over the cliffs, despite those areas being covered. I had some unroutable paint over the trail leading to the lot, that I removed.
- And I somehow also fixed the issue where you couldn't reach the Science Facility in one go. I have no idea what caused that one, but I had to go to Peak camp first, then to the Science Facility in order to reach it. In my last run, I was able reach it directly.(yay!)
- I fixed several other routing zones as well.

The new version will be up in about 15 minutes!

Please re-download.

Bump for more interest.

im using this world for my 100 baby challenge and i have noticed some lots don't have names nor addresses none of this bothers me but just letting you know

king_of_simcity7

Looks amazing did you do all the sculpting and terrain editing yourself?

earthgirl

@korset Yes, I know. I'm not big on setting lot addresses. I named a few lots and all the houses, but most lots don't have names.
@king_of_simcity7 Thanks. I have built this world from A to Z, including the sculpting.

I've been trying for a while to upload this world to the exchange, but for whatever reason I get server errors. That woulda made it more known. Oh well.

earthgirl

I made a cute little PROMO video for the world.
Check it out:

earthgirl

I made yet another video, much lenghtier and smoother, focusing a lot more on lots and buildings than sims.

This world looks great, I love the houses near the rocky mountain area. Keep it up I'd love to build a family in this neighbourhood!

Hi was just wondering if I downloaded this and I didn't have all the expansion packs needed what would it do??? it looks like a absolutely beautiful world xx

earthgirl

@Chelsie92

You need all expansion packs except University and Into the Future to play this world.

If you don't have some EP, well, the objects would be replaced by other objects, but you would still be able to play just it won't look entirely the same.

Chelsie92

ahhh right ok thankyou @earthgirl i only have a couple of expansion packs but this this world looks amazing xx

EngelSim83
