the crazy inventors home:
a family home (see my definition on first page), for an inventor and family.
to be placed in the wooden area of HS, on a 40x30 (road site first)
don't need to be very rich or big home, could be just 1 living room and kitchen + a shared loft where all the family sleep, and an all-in-1 bathroom as a out house (the movie one looks great for that) + a work shop
it could even be build into an old ruin of a castle (using the castle set and the ruin items from DV)
they might have a dog or a cat + other criters.
Imagen a big relativly poor family, that loves to invent and gather and randomly throws things out (imgane if it could be used)
they might have chickens and maybe a kitchen garden (so they don't have to buy much food)
That is an awesome pic. I've finished my big project now and if you still need the toy store I will take a stab at it. I'm not a fast builder and don't do fancy roofs. I do like building and will make extra sure I don't use an CAP in it. I have one build Sims3 file that has no CAP on purpose. Can you give me the lot size and where it is in Hidden Springs so I can do the build on the lot it will be used on. I'll go back a few pages and check your other pics as I seem to remember you posted a few others.
@anettesb Today I worked on the bedrooms and moved outside
Master Bedroom-
Teen Girl Bedroom-
Children's Bedroom-
Nursery-
Outside we have the barn-
and finally the tractor, I added harvestable plants I tried to fit everything but it all didn't fit but you have all the different kinds of grapes, all the fruit type plants I have, and all the base game plants, I also added some plants from University.
For bathrooms there's 3 & 1/2- There's a master bath, teen girl has a bath, there's a shared bath between the nursery and children's room, and there's a half bathroom on the 1st floor. Tomorrow I'll continue on the outside as long as nothing inside needs to get changed. I'll be adding in the Chickens and cows if you want those, and I'll start doing the landscaping and what not...Should there be a fence surrounding the property?

oh that would be a fantastic gift (it is more fun shoping in shops other people made)
this the lot I been thinking of.... it's the last lot on the left before the wateringhole and museum when you come from the town.... road site is first
11A: 40x30, family home, see area description – could also be a public lot. Maybe a toy/kids shop (savy seller + toy machine)
if you finde a MH or DV house that can be remodlede to be the shop thats ok (it don't need to be 100% nev build)
what I imagen is that it is an old toy shop (so relativly old building)
that it sells as many difrent toys (best in fun non standadr recolors) from all over in EP and store
+ maybe a few child oriented skill items (the fairy folks Fair Folk Easel, a funny looking telescope, 1 cheesboard) + maybe a few kids furniture (especially things like the animal chairs and chaning table)
and that it have a small play ground outside
and then ofcourse 1 toy machinc in a look a like workshop area
toilets be nice

wow look fantastic
love the chest in the parents bedroom.... it was normal to have a weeding chest a long time back... my mom had an old one in the bedroom when I grew up
and 2 cribs
will there be more beds (thinking grand parents and many kids)... could just be a bunk bed in the stable if that small room isn't in use between the stalls.... my mod counts beds so I really want this to be big family home
yes please cows and chickens... I love those
the green drive of the tracktor really fits the area
hmm some sort of fencing... yes souns great.. maybe not around the wholes lot... and maybe around the whole lot... maybe jsut around the field and animals....
what ever looks best and still let it look like they own the area around them.

thank you again
I didn't know that I just thought the chest fit in the room glad it now has a reason to be in there
Oh do you want two more beds for when say the 2 toddlers in the nursery grow up? I'll try making some changes and adding 2 more beds or a bunkbed maybe add it to the children's room so 4 children can sleep in the room. Cause that room between the stables is small it's a 2 by 8 or something.
Alright, just wanted to make sure for the cows and chickens, The drive of the tractor actually did that it self when I switched from buy mode to live mode so it's pretty interesting it changes it's color to match the ground.

your very welcome
A cheest like that would often be used as a bridal chest (what the girl took with her and later used to store her clothes... ) yup it looks amazing
ah ok that would be a thight fit... yea thank you for trying to fit in a few more beds.... or my mods would go crazy telling me there isn't enough. it is perfectly fine if some look more like a handyman or kitchen helpers room.... (farms would often have it) just the game nned bed counts up.
for that reason it could be a bunk bed for 2 handymen in that small room.... but it's your call.

does any one know what items you can put in a sims inventory and they use automatic if they a townie?
Í like to give hte townies I make/edit in other worlds a few things they can use (fittign for them)
especially umbrallas if they use the one I give them... as I'm tirred of all the sims in town using the same umbralla... like diversity.
on that thought I know I can take a sim into cas/stylist mode with my mods.... but is there any way I can edit the look of their umbralla/backpack when I see them with it.... all the sims at uni seem to have EA's 3 defauls.... same goes for the umbrala (though mosts seem to have the rainbow colored)
oh and if there is an easel in a house sims will use it yes... but as they can't remove the painting on their own... any ideas on how they can keep lifting that skill as townies?
I'm not sure how you can edit the stuff in the inventory unless you take over the sim for a few minutes and do it that way.
I do know that you can use Nraas skill mod....it is one of the Story Progression modules, to assign whether or not the NPC's learn skills. I've just started using it and started seeing painting and writing type skills going up for the ones that are assigned writing and painting careers. I've tried to slow them down a bit, because they were learning skills faster than my sims and that doesn't make me happy.
Do you have the savvy stuff and want the toy store to be a functional toy store? I forgot to ask that earlier.

@bekkasan, I think you can use NRaas MC Cheats module to transfer inventory to and from sims that you are not in control of, I have used it in the past. I forget how, and can't get in game on the laptop to figure out how, but I know it can be done.

I use that mode to, so it was more about well how do they learn with out an easal (gues it is randomly added... thats ok)
I give my townie sims things when I creat them in an other save... thats how I give them stuff
yes I like the machine there and it to function using savy seller... I got it all... thats why I'm remodeling town....
that way next time a kid want a doll house we go to the shop, instead of build/buy.... thats also why I want as many difrent things on display/for sale as posible.

hmm must look into that then
then the question is only what will they use on their own... what will I see them use
I'm guessing:
umbralas
backpacks
flying disk and balls
teddys
laptops
tablets
toys
surfboards
boats
cars
bikes
Meadow Grove -For generations Meadow Grove has been run by the same family who's added their own touches here and there leaving the previous generations. The only thing that hasn't changed about this home is the fact that anyone who lives here always has a sense of home. With the children only growing up knowing farming, Will someone break the family tradition? 4BR/3 & 1/2BA. Built in hidden Springs on 1 Meadow Beach Dr.
The small building I was thinking used to be an outhouse that was changed into a shed, you'll find the inventor's bench inside
With the Cow I didn't pen it in cause it sorta has it's own fence around it and it looked kind of funny to add a fence around it.
Inside the barn you'll find two stables as I thought the family might breed horses.
@cmbaker16 wow... I love love love it.... yes they might breed horses... we don't know storyprogresion will decide.... I'm going to link to this post in my wish for creation... when I wish for a family (remember to post this here then you might win store items for you or a friend + make @NagyGina happy)
seems just fine... I just thought it be smart not to qoute them....
and I do love pictures
the shed idea is briliant.... I love the history... and the fence.... neat use of the now and then fence.... I really hope my sims becomes friends with the sims living there.... as I want them on hayrides and milking cows....
and the struckture of the plants in the field makes it so real.... yes I can't make them farm all the land around them... but this will make it look like theyuse it for horses and cows... and to get wood for their fire... and to get hay for the animals...
