    You mean the circled chair?

    I don't think that's a re-color of anything already available to simmers. This should be included in the set IMO.

    the chair is included in the Combo. I'm guessing they forgot to add it in the pics of the set. They did that with the previous combo and forgot to add some pics of items in the page but they were still included if you got it

    And BOO!!!!!!!!! The vase is broken and can't be recoloured. You just end up with the "style is invalid, please select a new style before continuing".

    BOO!!!!

    Thanks for all the checking. I definitely will buy the set, but since I have to wait to get simpoint cards, I will just wait for a daily deal. Maybe the vase will be fixed by then too. :)

    Yes, TDC95 I love the female vampire's dress that is just the kind of dress that I have been looking for. My sims need Wedding dresses with fuller skirts that is beautiful. How did you come by it? i like the 18th century dress too.

    Hmmmmmm ok.

    No new patterns.

    Bad news? The rug patterns are static. By that I mean they have four colours in the pattern (two for the largest one). You can recolour each part but can't have a solid colour for any of the rugs. You'll still be left with the outline of the pattern :(

    The wall sculpture is a black curtain on a rail. Nothing special and should have been put in the curtains section.

    Overall I think this is a letdown, especially with the missing chair that's in the picture.

    BOO!!!!

    Thank you for the info on the rugs. I guess that settles it - I don't want the rugs anymore, so picking apart the set to get the things I do want and waiting two weeks for the tablet is better for me.

    Can someone post pics of the various rug stencils. Would like to see better. Hard to tell from the angle They are posted at.
    Also EA. Rugs should be posted with dimension and stencils easily visible. Matter fact there should be screen shot of any and all stencils available for the buyer to peruse. such as you do the premium. How many squares does it take? Are mini items shelf-able( for "Storage"/ such as can you store the fryer in pantry when not in use.) God we could use more items that are shelf-able. Why are so many items not? Does not make sense. Voodoo dolls should be shelfable. Who would leave it on the floor. Especially in a voodoo shop, same with potions and trophies. :roll:
    The light bulb goes on!
    Cool if the cabinets had storage function. As in open cabinet/store fryer or coffee maker,ice-cream maker/blender. Still avail but not cluttering backpack or cabnet.

    The chair does come with the set. Look at the individdual items listed and its the last one. There is also a light color recolor of it - you can see the quuilting in the lighter colors.

    Stormwench posted pictures on the tablet in action and features. Gosh, it looks awesome. Starting to drool.
    Bottom of post.

    Please someone post in-game screen shot s of furniture. So hard to see in the ugly monotone they are posted in in the store. What are the possibilities?

    Well - I for one love this set and thank Roundheaded for gifting it to me. I love the Goth families - I have many Generations - so this is just what all my newest Goth generations need to get out of the "dark ages" of the old set. Plus I notice it goes reall nicely with Haute Hip bed set to round off my new Goth Generations household. For kitchen i just recolored my Steampunk kitchen stuff (black, white, and gold) and it fits nicely seeing I had not used my Steam punk Kitchen in a Goth household yet. Bathroom was no problem either - but I would like an errie kind of nursery and kids room. Think Adams family EA!!!!

    But love this set for sure.

    Great minds think a like! I'm going to use the set to furnish a penthouse apartment coupled with the Haute Hip set because I think they will fit together really nicely. I was going to use the Late Night kitchen set but now that you've mentioned the Steampunk Kitchen I might have to try that out because I have been looking for somewhere to use that set :-) :wink:

    A Gothic Nursery set would be great, I used to love the Adams Family :mrgreen:

    *sneaks into the computer lab*

    Hey guys, just added the claustrophobia chair as the individual link for that is now up now too ^_^

    If you are missing the chair in-game, I'd recommend redownloading the set and see if it does anything.

    I can't wait for pictures too, so share them as much as you can please!

    Thanks ^_^

    I am thinking the same thing here about making an Addams family home with the set. I loved that show when I was a little girl, Morticia was my favorite.

    They just updated it. It wasn't there before I left for class, and now it's back on. I'd recommend redownloading it and see if you can find it ^_^

    I wish we would have gotten maybe a separate set with clothes that matched it. We have a decent amount of normal clothing, we need some more darker edgyer clothing, more modern. Because the place will look pretty modern and nifty but wearing sweats and a t-shirt isn't exactly matching the sims personality with the home. It's more like a sim in someone elses house watching the plants while there friend is out partying and being cool :lol:

    Is my math off?

    Goth LR + sleeping room = 950 points

    Steampunk clothes = 1000 points

    Technophobe no more = 1500 points (sale price- 200 points off)

    Total = 3450 points for 70 items

    Oh my Goth compilation total = 3400 points for 69 items.

    So, I absolutely love the compilation, and would get it immediately, if I had a small incentive (discount). Hopefully this is like Lunar Lakes, and the discount won't show up for a little while.

    From what I know the Technophobe No More does not include the tablet, meaning I wouldn't recommend calculating using that price of the set.

    Gothique Living + Sleeping = 950 Simpoints
    - Gothique Living = 750 Simpoints
    - Gothique Sleeping = 400 Simpoints

    Steampunk Savvy = 1000 Simpoints

    Adding all individual items (without multitab) from Gothique Glamour Living and Home Office (at the moment as there is no full idea how much the set will cost): 1950 Simpoints

    So basically based on your logic, it is not worth getting the compilation since the set is on sale for 1500 Simpoints WITH the Multitab included.

    They probably based their prices of:

    750 Simpoints Gothique Living
    400 Simpoints Gothique Sleeping
    1000 Simpoints Steampunk Savvy
    1800 Simpoints Set Estimated Cost of the Gothique Glamour Set
    __________

    = 3950

    But still with the Combination Set, that would be

    950 + 1000 + 1800 = 3750

    At the moment, you are better off getting the sets on sale especially the Technophobe Set on discount.

    I find myself mildly annoyed that the only thing out of this set I really want is the tablet, and I'd have to buy the whole thing to get it. :(
