@Anettesb Uploaded!!! Whee! I hope your Sims enjoy it. I ran it thru custard and no issues, but, I used a brand new sims file with no cc for building it also.
@Anettesb Uploaded!!! Whee! I hope your Sims enjoy it. I ran it thru custard and no issues, but, I used a brand new sims file with no cc for building it also.
buildings:
area A:
- the old vault of antics (being worked on)
- the light house (being worked on)
- the poor/messy hut (being worked on)
- 3 small farm/inventor/aartist/nectarmaker/fisher homes
Area B:
- Pascals shop (could wait a bit)
- 2 other shops (1 can wait a bit)
- The apparment building
Area C
- The petrol station
Area D :
- Villa 60x60 (it have a corner in the wather… so special it is hard to fit anything on that lot)
- 1 more lot (40x30)
The simfu academy (area B or D) and The lots I wish for for uni (all can be added later)
I need to make a beach + a small marina… could be 1 lot.
Think that need to be my next build.
I'm considering letting 3D stay empty and be privat training fields for the family... atleast until I find the perfect house for that lot, then they can sell the land.
I think I found a house for lot 5D
the lighthouse and the old city center + a few small farms (especially lot 5A 40x40) will be needed before real play
Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you, @anettesb. I took a few days away from the forums to recover from the gift exchange craziness. I was planning on getting back to that build, but it sounds like you found another house for the family. I'll still let you know when it's finished in case you want it, but I will probably take my time. It's way bigger than anything I've built before and taking breaks from it keeps me from getting overwhelmed. I'll take a look through my library and see if I have any works in progress that will fit your remaining needs that I can finish quickly.
What do you think of this version? Stripes or no stripes for the lighthouse walls? Any preference for colours? I can make the building just 1 level if you prefer since the lighthouse is large enough that each level can be a bedroom. I'll be adding a garden and some simple landscaping, outdoor seating, etc. later on.

Are you still needing a witch family? Because I am working on a small family right now that are witches. Trinity, Frost, Micheal and Jaden Blood are a family of witches that I am working with right now and if you are still looking for a family I'd love to share them with you. Here is a picture of them watching a movie before bed

oh this look great
I gues the light house would feel higer if the house was just 1 level...
I really like how the house look though
as I don't know what your putting in the house (what tye of home it be) I don't know what you put in the rooms
but yes they need to be used
I think for a low light house like this it does look higher if Plain white, maybe the rolorcoater elements red... don't know
looking forward to seign if it is a small farm or inventor home or something ells

I am still loking for a big old fasion withc family so that be nice... your sims look quite moderen though.
OK, I made the lighthouse 1 level taller since I needed the space of the 2-storey house. All levels are playable. I created an elevator shaft running up the rear of the tower... think of it as a renovation by the new owners so they don't have to walk up so many stairs, lol. Anyway, the proportions match the photos I used for inspiration so hope you like it. The front building houses the larger crafts; other activities and hobbies are placed throughout the lot.
The artists get the best views from the top of the tower. I've included most of the gardening plants and trees; also the cows, chickens and bees so the family can live off the land. There is also 1 fish spawner - which I can remove if you like.
Next steps are for me to recolour the furnishings in the insides, take some pictures, then will let you know once I've uploaded. In the meantime, below are some shots of the outside... you can see the new elevator shaft I mentioned. This lot will fulfill your wishlist 25) the old lighthouse as well as 9) the ecofriendly artist collective.

Yes, sims can currently go up the elevator to the last covered floor then take the ladder to the top of the lighthouse with the railings where they can walk around inside near the lights and outside on the circular balcony where they can paint.
Not sure how the windmill will look in the lot since it's already packed and I think the height may compete for attention with the other structures. I'll see if I can work this in... if not, you can easily add this and any other items as you wish.
I do think the elevator is a good trade-off for the balanced look between the tower and the house. However, if you really, really don't want the elevator... I would need to instead use spiral stairs or the ladder and these options don't work for the 1 floor that is stretched. Also, they take up more room in the tower which I've already laid out with furnishings. Anyway, I'll try one last time to see if I can find a way to use regular stairs to bridge this level.
If I cannot bridge the stretched level with regular stairs, the choice is either (A) to keep the elevator (which is hidden at the back so doesn't spoil the look of the lot and makes it easily functional) OR (B) to shrink the 1 level back down to normal height which makes the tower short.
My game just crashed again... will go back in to see if I can wrap this up. Stay tuned

hmm then the elevator is good... but sims then to get stuck if only elevator... as I remember (been a long time since I played with elevators) so we could try and keep it.. in worsed case I likely find a way to tweek it if they get stuck....
I see your point about windmill... so lets drop them
Hmm... and I see your point re potential for stuck sims. I play tested and my sim was able to get to the top to paint. I tried the regular stairs but they left a big gap at the bottom so if sims do get stuck I think the lighthouse will need to go back to standard floor heights.
I put in the windmill near the cows... let me know if you want to keep it.

the routing must work then... maybe it is only public lots thats a problem? so lets keep the elevator... and hope for the best... if playtested I trust the play test.
Oh I was thinking the white winmills that reduce the bill... from the same eco sets as the solarpanels
Oh, I didn't notice the white windmill... will replace with that one instead when I go in game tomorrow. Have play tested for 4 sim days and all good with routing and elevator so far. Am recolouring the furniture as I go along. I put the searchlight on top of the tower. If you don't like that effect, I can remove it. Am calling it quits for the day. Have a good night
