    @abelhinha35 Yes! You build them so well. I put your starter in Newcrest. They'll be a lot of pictures soon of each neighborhood.

    Here's the neighborhood where I have two of your homes and want the midcentury feel:

    Here's a list of the builds I'm looking for to create this base game only save file:

    On this list I've stricken through the one's that are pretty firm and taken care of. I don't need these anymore.
    I've marked with a smiley anything I have, love, but still open to look at more options.

    There's probably too many builds up above for the amount of spots, so I'll put pictures below for more ideas on what I really need.
    Thanks for everyone's contributions to our save file project! Y'all are amazing builders and designers!

    I'm in bad need of sims and sim families! If anyone wants to create any sims, I need variations in careers.

    Here's some bird's eye views with the credits at the top in World Description. If there's any credits missing, please let me know. (Some of the names have changed).

    This should be what the save file looks like if you download the save file to your game.
  • HomeMamaHomeMama Posts: 484 Member

    Here's links to a video I found about downloading saves to your game. The link for my save file was posted a few back. My link is above in the comment that I posted earlier today. That will bring you directly to the place you download it.

    A plan is starting to develop in my mind about how this might look. Here's some pictures to show you what I'm thinking. All of this is open to discussion.

    In Willow Creek, I love this top right corner as a community lot area. I think the street looks more geared to a public area. So these four lots I'd like to be community lots of some kind, maybe a museum, lounge, restaurant, college, or things like that.

    The two big lots in the left corner are still fluid. I love these both, but I'm not sure their placement looks great here. I tried the Open Opera Forum in the middle park area, but it only looked better from the bird's eye view. I might try that again though, and just get rid of my National Park. Up for ideas.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/VvFtx0D7/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-44-29-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-44-29-AM.png


    The strip along the coast of Willow Creek, I'd like to be matching apartments next to this gym. I like these apartments, but I'm still open to others. But if I stick with these, I only want one of them furnished and decorated by me. The other two are open to someone adopting them as a decor project. I'd like the outside of the building to remain the same paint color, but the landscape can be changed. The inside apartments should remain built as/is, but decor/furniture/inside paint/flooring and all of that can be restyled. We can change the outside coloring, too, but I want all of them to match like they're an apartment set.

    If you're interested in this project, let me know.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/V6nnFVMP/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-44-49-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-44-49-AM.png

    This Retirement Community is staying right here, and I'm considering another set of apartments for the two 30x20 lots, or a really upscale neighborhood to blend with the Retirement Community already there. If someone builds the other apartment set in Willow Creek and I select those, it's possible I'll just move the one's currently in WC here and repaint the outside to match the style. The 40x30 lot could be almost anything, as long as the style coordinates with the retirement community building.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/dQRGkgw8/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-48-59-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-48-59-AM.png

    This Willowcreek neighborhood toward the back, I'm leaving as a suburban neighborhood, middle income lots, and a park would be welcome there to go with it, if available. Some of these houses are pretty firm, but they might shift in and out of neighborhoods, still. Specifically, the red brick house and the little blue one story. The other two houses, mine, are still free if you'd like to build something suburban style. I'm kinda thinking older suburban, maybe 80s and 90s build styles.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/pLcfV8x4/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-45-40-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-45-40-AM.png

    This neighborhood is still up for ideas, but I love the church. It'd have to be a real stunner for me to replace it. I think a school or daycare, maybe both, would be fun here. Maybe some houses in the back 3 and community lots across from each other. Still thinking through this neighborhood.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/SR481f72/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-45-54-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-45-54-AM.png

    The middle big area of Oasis Springs is still open, and I don't really have a plan for it. The two lots behind it are an elementary school and my trailer park shell. I may just build out this shell, but for now it's open if someone else wants to tackle it. It's supposed to be a nicer trailer park, clean and tidy, with maybe one messy trailer.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/pX2zDkL3/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-18-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-18-AM.png

    This corner neighborhood is my "bad" side of town, run down feel. The bar is staying, and probably the Homeless Retreat (bigger residential shown), but everything else is open. These can be residential or commercial (maybe even something with an industrial feel).

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/GmfDnCx1/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-43-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-43-AM.png

    This neighborhood has a Midcentury Modern feel and would be pricey older homes that have been modernized and well-kept. this neighborhood is mixed with a constellations park and a library. Non of these are open anymore. Issabella14 has already called the 30x20. I'd really like the Astronaut to live in this neighborhood.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/cJ8nsbFt/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-59-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-49-59-AM.png

    This neighborhood is commercial and completely open to ideas. I'd really like to see a restaurant here. I've got one in an old save that would work well, but I'd have to go searching, so if someone else wants to build one, that's cool.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/prk9GbL4/Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-50-21-AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen-Shot-2022-11-02-at-11-50-21-AM.png

    This corner of Newcrest I want to feel busy and commercial. The hospital is staying where it is, and I believe I have someone working on that. The Police Station/Post Office will probably stay too, unless someone comes up with something like it but better.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/zXXHLBdr/Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.51.40_AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.51.40_AM.png

    This back corner of Newcrest is a neighborhood, but a daycare or something similar (elementary school) would also be welcome.

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/c1c84YBh/Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.51.58_AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.51.58_AM.png

    The strip along the side I currently have no plans for. I'm open to ideas...ultra modern homes, commercial fun hubs, etc??

    [url="[url=https://postimages.org/][img]https://i.postimg.cc/CxRZN2Tr/Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.52.15_AM.png[/img][/url]"][/url]Screen_Shot_2022-11-02_at_11.52.15_AM.png

    Well, there we go! That's Edit 2. We need to start getting some sims and sim families, if anyone wants to add some here. I also asked in the CAS area of the forum, but never got any response. I hope you enjoy playing in the save file!! Please let me know if it downloads okay, if anything doesn't work, etc.

    It's coming along great!! Thank you all!

    I am up for this challenge. I will make some sims/sim families. Need to know what sims packs? I have all but a few of the kits.

    @BreeMiles Yes, there's a link in one of my comments from earlier today. (way at the bottom of page 5)

    @mustanggranny This one is base game only for everything. I have almost everything, as well, but I turned all of them off to make this base game only save. I'm excited to see what you make! There's instructions for posting each one (submission entry information) on the bottom of the first post.

    Thank you HomeMama I will work on something later today.

    I've got a really big house (500k) that could go on the 50x50 lot. I would just have to make it basegame.

    @mustanggranny Thank you!! Please submit as many as you like...each sim family with it's own submission. We are in desperate need of sims. I think most of us here are builders at heart.

    @BreeMiles Ah! Good...you found it. Did it work out? I still have to watch a video every time I'm about to put a save in my game.

    I'd love to see it! I'll have to look and see if there's a good place for it to fit. It might go well in the middle of Oasis Springs, but I'd almost have to see it there before I know. It's worth a try! I'd love for you to update it to base game and then make a submission. Thanks!

    Are you still working on the apartments/penthouse thing?

    I made another little starter home for Henry on the 20x15 lot in this pic of yours

    @BreeMiles Oh good! Thanks!

    Oh that's wonderful!! I'm so glad. Please let me know how you like everything.

    I'd like Henry to end up in that Red Brick (I forget the rest of the name) in Willow Creek. The one Cavapoo_King made. I know Henry's family oriented and Successful lineage, so if you want to make a spouse for him (or you can use Trulie if she's suitable), that would be fine. Just let me know. I'm totally fine if you just work on him as a single, too.

    I will look for the house you are talking about now and yes I want him to be a family man and hence the reason I said a business career for him it seemed to fit him for some reason LOL but my brain oh my brain has so much flying around in it. :D

  • BreeMilesBreeMiles Posts: 8,909 Member
    Yes, Red Brick Bustle is perfect for Henry, I will do a free real estate and place him there as a back story would be that he may be inherited it from a family member if he would pursue a business career and have a family. I don't know how the story would go but its in my brain like that :D

    Oh perfect! That would be great! I can't wait to see your submissions.

    I'm going to adopt Trulie and start her life out and see what career she bends toward. That'll get me playing and moving around as a sim in the save, so I can test some stuff out as a player, and not just a tester.

    I've also got an astronaut bg only sim I made not too long ago that I might submit.
