    @Zzz_mm 谢谢 ^_^
    @JCB24 Thank you so much!

    Well, unfortunately I had hit a roadblock and couldn't figure out how to save my lots after it kept crashing in EIG, fortunately I found a solution but unfortunately it made me fall waaaay behind schedule. I have finished 85ish out of 95 lots (the remaining 5 I am leaving blank) Here are some interior screenshots to share this time since I haven't shown many before ^.^
    There's a little 'resturant' block in Megurokyoto with various eateries, this is the interior of two of them.
    A little Sushi shop (with teppanyaki set to make it interactive) And a little okonomiyaki that is a cafeteria (to make it interactive.)

    A few traditional homes interiors and a few non traditional inspired homes.
    Most homes are either modern Japanese, or traditional traditional Japanese, there are a few in western style, shabby chic etc.

    The throne room and the dinning hall of Shiromatsu (white pines) Castle. The exterior was inspired by Osaka and Hikone Castles and the interior was inspiredish by Kumamoto, Hiroshima-Jo castles.

    Traditional Wedding Venue: Interior was inspired by the Itsukushima Shrine in Myajima.
    So far still working on the interior, exterior is completed. There's a place to put a cake, have ceremony, reception hall and a dance floor.

    Glad you've found a solution for problems with Eig crashing! Love the interiors of your builds ... they look awesome and very authentic! :)
  • KiearaPhoenixKiearaPhoenix Posts: 212 Member
    @Hidehi: so embarassed how late this is but, Thank you! I am trying to make it feel somewhat authentic, so I am happy to hear that ^_^

    It's been a bit hasn't it?
    Well, I am down to about 5 more lots, a little more fine tuning some sculpting and placing tiny details like sewers, lighting, etc and spending time testing routing and seeing how playing in game is. Eventually I'll need to write descriptions (Not looking forward to that, such a mediocre writer T_T;) so I am about 95% done I think, barring any new problems!

    Here's some more screenshots!

    Playtesting and finding issues is fun, but hard ;_;

    Yes, really trying hard to finish! I wanna just sit back and relax and enjoy Tokyosou without trying to trap myself and figure if routing is okay lol. Thanks so much ^_^ it was a nice reward so I can keep going this last stretch!
  • Zzz_mmZzz_mm Posts: 5 New Member
    辛苦了,地图看上去就特别精致,景色相当的养眼呢,而且很有日漫风的感觉,特别想往里面扔个喜欢的人物去玩玩看,喜愛日本ACG的人,應該都會對這張和風地圖愛不釋手的~如果能建造些类似坐火车旅行那樣超級有日本動漫里呈現的鐵軌風情就更有趣了,加油喔 :#

    AHHH! YOUR WORK IS JUST SPECTACULAR! I CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY IN THIS WORLD. I've been searching for japanese themed world, THIS ONE HITS THE MARK!!!! GOSH I LOVE YOU STRANGER!
  • KiearaPhoenixKiearaPhoenix Posts: 212 Member
    @Zzz_mm Thank you! Sorry I don't have any elevated trains. I didn't find sets when I started and the city is already planned out.

    @Rosh123: THank you so much ^^, I am actually done with the world and have now moved solely into testing and trying to see if I can lower the cc needed. (I'm of course including all the CC in the file when finished but I think the world is pretty big with the cc, world, and save file >_>; how big is too big?)


    Firstly, I hope everyone is doing well. I found myself with extra time lately so...

    Finally finished all the lots I was going to do for Tokyosou!

    The world itself is done, now I am only doing game testing to check for errors and routing. I was brave enough to up the graphic settings to see how my laptop handles moving around the world. So far so good! Testing it all is a lot of work however...>_>; I'm playing a few of the townies I made here and there...haven't done a big family yet, it's on my next to test list. In the meantime, so far almost one whole season and no errors! Yay!

    Some pics of Tokyosou in winter with graphics turned up!

    @Rosh123 : It was my pleasure, I had fun making it! I hope others will be able to enjoy it too. I released the Beta version. If you find things wrong let me know...

    Like I said in the first post, I'm relasing what I have so far, the test Beta Version, it's not perfect, but I realized I'm really overwhelmed with trying to test everything by myself. If you don't mind it being slightly unfinished in that respect, please tell me, ideas to improve and so on...

    Download link Tokyosou Beta Download

    ====Packs and Stuff Need:
    -All simpacks except supernatural
    - Free Chinese New Year Set
    -all other packages included

    ====Suggested:
    -Sims 3 Fast Lane for a few items (hospital and rockabilly club)
    -Teppanyaki: https://store.thesims3.com/productDetail.html?productId=OFB-SIM3:57590 (a few areas i.e. restaurant district)
    -Deliciously Indulgent Bakery: https://store.thesims3.com/setsProductDetails.html?productId=OFB-SIM3:72332 (hospital, bakery underneath a couple of apartments)

    Uh...hopefully that's everything! Please again help me out, feedback, suggestions, problems! I hope to have a finished version, barring problems soon and maybe lite version eventually too.
  • HidehiHidehi Posts: 1,109 Member


    Absolutely awe-sim @KiearaPhoenix !!!!
    I have checked out Tokyosou very briefly and even though I haven't set up a mods folder yet I am extremely impressed with what you have created!
    Love everything ... especially Seito University, Machi Onsen, Kabukiza Theatre, the Cupcake Shop and Apartments, Tanoshina Beach and ... and ... and of course Fuji-san <3<3<3

    Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic world with the simming community! :D
  • KiearaPhoenixKiearaPhoenix Posts: 212 Member
    Yay! I am glad you liked the world! :smiley: I did make a little less than half of the lots with little to no cc, and a few of the townie homes and regular homes too.

    I did check all the packages with Sims Dashboard by Delphy so they are clean if they are holding anyone back from using them.

    已经可以下载了吗?太棒了我恨不得立马就下载这个城市玩一玩,但是我发现Tokyosou Beta Download这个链接我打不了 :( 怎么办
  • Emily4331Emily4331 Posts: 10,850 Member
    @Zzz_mm 该网站可能在中国被屏蔽。Mediafire对中国人开放。也许KiearaPhoenix可以为您上传到Mediafire吗?

    @KiearaPhoenix Mega is blocked in mainland China, so it'd be awesome if you could upload the beta download to Mediafire as well. :smiley:

    @Emily4331 Oh, I had no idea! Thanks for informing me.
    @Zzz_mm Here is the file on mediafire! It is only the Beta version, not the final version, I hope you can enjoy it.

    那是否能通过邮箱或别的方法分享给我了,实在是想赶紧下载玩一玩
  • Emily4331Emily4331 Posts: 10,850 Member
    @Zzz_mm Mediafire链接有效吗?您应该可以访问它。如果没有,电子邮件可能是最好的选择。

    hihi, may i know which expansion is required for the bridges ?
  • KiearaPhoenixKiearaPhoenix Posts: 212 Member
    Hiya @kaixuan89 : Late Night and World Adventures. Is one of of the bridges not showing up for you?
  • Emily4331Emily4331 Posts: 10,850 Member
    Got this pic a few days ago! :smile:

    It's beautiful! Has a perfect city feel.
  • ChristinaluvsChristinaluvs Posts: 20 Member
    This is sooo gorgeous! I just need to get World Adventures and I'll be able to download this safely
  • KiearaPhoenixKiearaPhoenix Posts: 212 Member
    @Emily4331 Wow!! You made my world look amazing in that screenshot! I am so happy that you like it. ^_^
    @Christinaluvs I hope you enjoy the world too! If you don't mind waiting, the final version should be finished this summer.

    I am still fixing/working on the final version. I found soooo many small areas where there wasn't wallpaper...so embarrassing ;_;
    I've added a secret office/lab in the science building and finally figured out how to make a room in the spaceship that sits on the JAXA military lot.

    I've learned something new too! Did you know you could recolor some objects that you place in CAW using EIG? Like if you are building on a lot and change colors of an object, you can drag the texture/color to other objects in the world? (like benches and lights)

    I also learned you can assign jobs to townie sims via the mailbox! I am making more indepth stories for some of the Townies, and give them a bit more history by playing a few of them before plopping them in the Tokyosou Save.

    If anyone else has a screenshot they wanna share please do!
