    Thank you so much! :D

    Reach, I actually think a cat park is quite a stupid idea, not very realistic. But I always add one in my worlds, as well as the other pets lots (although I don't think I'm going to add horse facilities in this world...) Glad you like it!

    Fun fact: it kinda looks like a kidney seen from above :lol:

    I usually don't download worlds with custom content, but this one may be worth it..... :)

    Hi!
    Sometimes a world can´t be what it should without CC, and there are so many wonderfull items out there that are even better than the store ones!

    Hi Daethaqt :)
    I love the decoration, you've done a wonderful job! But I said I didn't want any CC or Store objects and in your pictures I see a lot of Store objects :( Could you please replace it with content from the EPs and SPs I mentioned in the post in my blog? I know it might have taken you some time, but I was pretty clear with that... Thank you.

    Oh I thought you said no CC but Store items were okay? Anyway it can be easily be fixed.

    Hi Nilxis!

    Well, you know I'm just going to go on Tumblr and reblog just about everything you've posted :D
    Camp Nou! Oh my goodness. Did I tell you I was in Barcelona not once, but TWICE for FCB winning El Copa Del Rey?
    It looks SO GREAT! Thank you so much for such a faithful adaptation. Also: do you know there are FCB fans amongst the EA store team? There is an FCB fan living in Monte Vista ;) Pepe something-or-other...

    Anyhow :D Congratulations on the Beta!
    Do you still need families? Interior decorating? I would love to make a family for you. I need to take things easy so I can't promise to be very speedy with getting them made, but hopefully within a couple weeks I could do that. I have a family of three in mind and I would love to recreate the little apartment I stayed in when I was there. It was just north of Sagrada Familia. I don't know if you would want something like that, but if you do, I'd be thrilled :D

    Thank you so much for removing the Store content!
    There's an important thing you should know though, when I opened the lots in the Sims3pack cleaner some corrupt files showed up, but I cleaned them and after that I have been able to install them successfully :thumbup:

    Te decoration was wonderful, there were some missing objects, from some SPs I don't have I guess, but just a few. Apart from that I haven't had any other problem, so thank you so much for your help and collaboration! :D

    Bummer about the corrupt files. Can you identify them so I can remove them.

    And anything else I can do to help let me know? I will reinstall so I wont have to deal with the corruption, I don't want anyone distrusting my Uploads.

    This is one of the lots in Sims3Pack Cleaner:

    I'm not sure how to identify the corrupt files, I think the corruption comes normally from a CC object but in the picture it says "shellDragonCaveChina", which is a WA object. Maybe this is just a random name... I don't know :( What I did was untick the corrupt files to clean the lot file, just in case. But I don't think it would have given me problems.

    Sims3Pack cleaner is a very useful program to delete and find attached CC and corrupt files, I always use it before uploading a Sims3Pack. Maybe you want to use it too, so you can get it here: http://modthesims.info/d/390235

    I forgot to reply you! So glad to see you back :D
    Thanks for the nice comments! I am not very much into football myself but FCB is my favourite team of course. And I didn't know there were Barça fans in EA, well in fact there are Barça fans all around the world :mrgreen:

    Right now I don't have anything new to offer for you to help me. I plan to add some more city blocks in the other side of La Diagonal, and they would look like the ones in Eixample, so it would be great to have a recreation of your apartment in one of the buildings there. When I have some new lots I will upload them because some other people have also asked me to collaborate with that ;) About the families, I still have to finish the building part but if you want you can create this family you say, just remind me to include it so I don't forget it! And if you want you can help play-testing too :)

    Thanks for the interest, I hope to show you all new things soon!

    I'm not sure... maybe you are right, because they were missing in my game. How did you make these pictures? I think there was an option to convert them into paintings that came with WA or Ambitions, I'm not sure (I hardly ever play :XD: ) Maybe this kind of paintings don't transfer well when you export a lot, and they get corrupt... I'm just speculating, I don't really know which is the cause of this, sorry.

    Sad face... I traveled to the worlds snapped the pictures then traveled home then added them to the walls. The pictures were the Highlight of the lot. Glad you like it otherwise.

    Hi! I'll start working on that family when I'm next in game. That will be so much fun to do the apartment. Count me in! Especially if it is mostly doing the interior. The apartment building was typical of Eixample. What you have done looks so so good, both from street level and from above. You couldn't mistake this for anywhere else in the world. And I'll definitely play test! I'm still getting my game sorted. Hopefully I'll be back in business today or tomorrow :)

    I love how observable your builds are. I learn so much just by watching.

    Sorry for the lack of updates :( I was having problems with my computer and I had to reinstall all my Sims 3 games twice. Now everything is working again and hopefully it will continue like this.
    I love how observable your builds are. I learn so much just by watching.
    This makes me so happy because I've learn a lot by watching other people's buildings so you doing the same with my buildings means a lot to me :D

    Thank you both :D

    Niac, the world runs well on my computer (4GB) with the graphics set medium, so I think it will work fine for medium and powerful computers but sadly not for lower-end ones. Right now there are 93 lots, and I'm expecting to have up to 105-110, which I think it's great for such a huge world :wink:
