    What a beautiful couple.

    Bren
    great screenie of medieval Brennachan

    Pink
    You really outdid yourself with the evil witch. De Mott is my favorite she just so looks the part. You did a fantastic job on all of them.

    Reach and xSorcier
    been working on the Jewish households.
    Here is what I have so far:

    For the fishing village
    Married, he is an angler she is unemployed as of yet.

    His outfits have been picked still have to cas him

    The noblish (is that even a word...:))
    Married, He is in the political career and she is a painter.
    screenshot_original.jpg"width=500"

    Still skilling them up and I am wondering if there is specific names you want for them or if you want any children with them or just leave them as couples. Or any specific back story stuff to add for their rewards or well anything like that.

    Apple - thanks so much! I posted on your page to answer your questions regarding the Jewish couple.

    Sharon - thanks so much for Philippe and Gabrielle. They are quite lovely and will be perfect for our world. It's great that you are offering them both as a couple and individuals.

    Brenna - I hope your Medieval Brennachan liked her turkey leg and that she has "recovered" from her mishap earlier today with that meteor. Her and Isolde. :XD: Have fun with the monks when you get to them.

    Pink - I commented on your page but I love the four witches and this gives everyone so much choice here. How will they ever choose? :mrgreen:


    ~~~~~

    Here's a lot we've never shown before but I finally had time to upload it while xSorcier is working in CAW. This is an unfurnished community build in the Sarlat Docks area. The lot does have toilets and some lighting and the players can use it as they like.


    The Boardwalk


    [img]https://🐸🐸🐸🐸.googleusercontent.com/-obdTFLVUdy0/UtvqivATB_I/AAAAAAAAAzQ/Pn051q512kw/w700-h519-no/The+Boardwalk+Screenshot.jpg[/img]


    This set of buildings was formerly located at The Docks at Côtes d'Ambonnay. When the docks area was enlarged these small buildings were considered historically valuable and the town decided to rebuild them at a new site. Recently completed, these little jewels stand empty and are available for immediate occupancy. Bidding begins Monday at 50K. Unfurnished. By Reach for Côtes d'Ambonnay - No 3PCC.

    More pictures are available on the upload and thanks for checking it out. Hope you guys like this one and thanks to everyone for the wonderful comments on the Enchanted Forest.

    omg, I LOVE all of you talented creative individuals and have goosebumps from the pictures, they are that exciting!!! :mrgreen:

    The enchanted forest is so enchanting! and Reach...we get to download the boardwalk? I ADORE sneak previews :D Buildings perfect as always!

    pinkoranges...if you don't mind I may have to use ALL FOUR of your witches!! BRilliant! How funny would it be if they shared a household and tormented one another and left the children alone?? Okay, xSorcier's Badlands witch cottage is quite wee, but that would just make them angrier. oooh, like one of those challenges where they are trapped together and we see who survives! :twisted: Okay, sounds sick, but are they not evil? MUAH HA HA... :D They are great and look so diverse!

    Applepolkadot...great couples, lovely costumes and will look great in Cotes! The request list is getting shorter!

    Brenna...so THAT's how you made the turkey leg. Mayhaps the meteor is a sign they should be vegetarians? Nah, that's silly... Glad you didn't have to lose your medieval simself (what color ghost is meteor strike?), as it may be an ominous omen :shock:

    Our sim makers are the best :D And the world makers, well, there are no words for they clearly use witchcraft to make such otherworldly beauty! :D

    So that's where the turkey leg from. I have both items but there's a lot of Simming I have yet to do. :XD:

    Lol about the meteor.

    I think it's safe to say here are some of the best sim creators ever. :thumbup:

    WOW! I must update the Bank of Households with all those new ABSOLUTELY AMAZING creations :D:D:D

    Sharon, Pinkoranges, ApplePolkaDot and Brennachan, I'm speechless with all those new households. I don't know how to express how grateful I am with all this. Thank you so much!


    Hugs to you all!

    I finally finished Sylvie Dorsey. She has a degree in science and medicine and is a very perceptive midwife and healer. She has access to knowledge about families around town that some would prefer she not know. Sylvie has the equestrian trait but no skills in riding. She does have other skills, some LTR's and money. She is neat, brave,, perceptive, good, and a genius. She has no CC and was tested with Custard. I uploaded her before I plan to install the latest update. Sorry I don't know how to make pictures. I am a technologically challenged senior and don't understand all the explanations very patient friends have tried to show me how to do it. In the long ago times midwives were often wealthy women of good families who were licensed, and this profession gave them extra power. Just finished reading a novel about this subject re: a midwife in England during the English cival War. Written by a scholar and based on an actual woman.
    I am in awe of how beautiful this world is and of all the wonderful sims being created. Very humbling.

    I am just blown away by this, I keep thinking: I wonder how much it will cost? But then I quickly realise, oh! It's free! FREE! o.o And I can hardly believe it xD This is beyond doubt one of the absolute most gorgeous worlds I have ever seen here! I can hardly wait for it to be released ^__^ Thank you, all of you, for doing this <3

    :mrgreen: You're on, Sharon! You may be the winner if there are no other bids.

    @Jessabeans, Christine and Manssom - Thank you so very much for the wonderful comments and for visiting our world! :D

    @Rukaya - Sylvie Dorsey is great and we are most thankful!

    To just use the picture from your upload you can right-click on the image and Copy Image Location. (The wording may be slightly different from one browser to another.) Then you paste that same link in your post like this...

    Important Note

    :!: We plan to run all the Sims and households through CUSTARD to make sure they are free of 3PCC but we have not yet had time to do that. We probably jumped the gun and should not have posted the bank of them until we had done so. (I forget sometimes that not everyone uses CUSTARD.) I have asked xSorcier to remove the Bank of Households temporarily until we have time to check them all. From here on out, we will add them to the bank only after they have been looked at in CUSTARD. This is for the "protection" of everyone's games. Thanks for understanding and I offer my apologies on that oversight.

    I downloaded our entire Bank of Sims and Households to find only one Sim with 3PCC (Third Party Custom Content), so we have removed that one from the list for now. The Bank of Households has been returned to the first page and I have to say, you guys are doing a great job of keeping your uploads "clean" for those who do not use 3PCC. Thanks for that.

    While we cannot take full responsibility for any problems with anyone's creations, we have checked all of the Sims and households on the list in CUSTARD but of course, we hope it is your own personal habit to check your content for yourself. Installing content without using CUSTARD is like playing Russian Roulette with your game. :wink::D

    You're welcome, Rukaya. Glad to be of some help. :D

    I wanted to mention that our world makes use of two lots made by friends that we have adapted to fit our theme. We thank them for their generosity in allowing us to upload modifications of these with our world. Here are links to the original versions of their lots:

    Small Sheep Island Lighthouse by Yoda65 - known as Bad Sheep Lighthouse in our world, located on the main island

    Apothecary Todd by KLorelei - known as Todd's Apothecary, next to the North Gate in the Badlands


    And this is how you should find them in Côtes d'Ambonnay -


    Bad Sheep Lighthouse

    Marye d'Ambonnay No CC

    by sharonxyz. No CC. Marye is a French Medieval pirate made for the Cotes d'Ambonnay world project. Marye arrived in Cotes d'Ambonnay, decided to give up her life upon the sea, and promptly chose her surname. With her past, no one need know her former name. Her traits are brave, equestrian, hot-headed, kleptomaniac, and party animal. Her future is for you to decide, but whether fun, gallant, or naughty, she will be an interesting citiizen of the new world. Please Enjoy!

    Oh, I love the new peeks at the world *jumps up and down with a big smile*

    Sharon, your simmies are gorgeous, as usual!

    Here's Isolde

    The Legendary Isolde now resides in Cotes d'Ambonnay. She even has a beautiful garden named after her there. So famous is her beauty that male callers come from as far as Dragon Valley, just to get a glimpse of her. Has Isolde already fallen for a secret lover or will she find her soul mate in Cotes d'Ambonnay? Only time and your imagination will tell. Isolde has mastered the charisma, gardening and alchemy skills. CAP and 3PCC Free.

    I Absolutely Cannot wait to live and explore in this world. Outstanding Job!. I have a question... Is there a main castle in this world for the First families we choose? If not will there be a big open lot where we can place the castle of our choice?

    Oh Brenna, Isolde is so beautiful! One would never know a meteor landed within miles of her...simply stunning :D

    Now that Marye has completely lost her memory from the piracy on the seas and the sordid ship on which she arrived... Well, our widower, Michel Collier, the town's carpenter and talented sculptor will most certainly fall to his knees before her, begging for the honor of sculpting her in his finest masterpiece. Will he woo her or will she not even notice his lowly existence? Only time will tell...

    Thank you Sharon! I am so glad you like her. I bit my nails a bit over her. I wanted her to be just right and I hope she is.

    I made her as a simmie too, just in case that appeals to some. You can see more of her clothing that way, too.

    Brenna! Isolde has a beautiful wardrobe, you made the best choices for style and color and of course her face and hair is perfection. Thank you for uploading her both ways! It's so great when a sim becomes fleshed out with skills, and it's also great to view an amazing wardrobe. Brava!!

    I cannot believe how many surprises our dear Reach and xSorcier are pulling out in this world....Enchanted Forest, play castle, using Klorelei's Apothecary Todd cart and Yoda65's charming light house

    So many treasures and their buidings are so amazing. I wish I could envision with that sort of scope, but just contributing in some way makes me feel so happy. :)

    WOW! Just WOW at those amazing new sims!
    Brennachan, Isolde is a DIVA! I LOVE her :)
    sharonxyz, Suzanne is hot! :D Thank you for that jewel.

    Thank you you both for those amazing sims, I'm most grateful for all your contributions to this project. You're turning Côtes d'Ambonnay into a much more fun world to play in.

    As you may have noticed I've updated the Bank of Households list with a new arrangement. To make the post shorter we are now displaying all the creations sorted by creator in alphabetical order. Hope you like it that way :)

    Cewtsoul, Welcome to our thread :) Thank you for your compliments on our work. We do have a castle in Badlands island and you'll also have a few empty lots available to place your own. We hope you'll enjoy playing in this world as much as we are enjoying to build it.
