i'v finished my residential lot here is the download link https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9370524 this time i want to claim three lots the 30x30 community lot right below the 50x50 lot in London the 30x30 community lot to the left of the java hut bakery in paris and for the last lot i want to know witch 30x30 flat lot in Paris is available and want to know if any lots i'm claiming are suposed to be anything specific
@seaben , I've added the link to your Venice apartment on page 1 as well as your claim for the 30x30 London Community lot.
Looking at the map, the 30x30 Paris community lot on the left of the Java hut is the one containing an existing L-shaped shell so I've added your name against this as well... Community lot 30x30 (Champs-Élysées) (interior design / shell tweaks) Edited claim to change to empty 30x30 community lot.
Re the Paris flats... the following 30x30 residential lot options are still available for claiming (with / without a shell). Let me know which type you are interested in.
I wanted to claim a 30x30 community lot in Paris that didn't have a shell but I'm a little confused about witch is one is available
Sorry, I missed your second post @seaben . So... to confirm for Paris you do NOT want the 30x30 community lot with the L shell but instead you want the empty lot across the street near the Java Hut instead. I’ve updated your claim to reflect this on page 1.
I'm just wondering if there are any guide lines for what to build on the lot to the left of the Java hut bakery like if i can have combined venues coffee shops etc
Nothing planned that I am aware of. We have a general list of potential ideas for Paris (see below) however if you would rather create something like you mentioned that’s good as well. Just keep in mind that Paris has specific style guidelines for structure and decor. I find Google photos quite helpful for exterior and interior inspiration. Have fun
Community lots could potentially be...
[*] Showtime venue (eg Cabaret (eg Moulin Rouge / Garnier Paris Opera House) —
[*] Spa (visitable with Serenity Retreat items) —
[*] Restaurant —
[*] Arboretum —
[*] Sacre Coeur —
Have you decided for your 3rd claim (30x30 residential Paris flats) whether you wanted one of the U-shaped shells or an empty lot?
Once you use the correct size and type lot to build on it’s ok. Jessabeans may need to tweak placement of completed builds anyway.

@Jessabeans , adding on to Ciane’s note re terrain paint... whenever you’re tweaking, the 30x30 lot behind Notre Dame I’m using for the graveyard has a small section of cobblestone where it should be grass. Very minor so no biggie.

@seaben@soocoolsim The Arezzo bathroom counter is showing up on the National Gallery download. It's the left counter, and the info I find about the corrupt version of it mentions the right counter, but possibly it's both. Seaben, if you didn't actually use the counter in your build, it is a bad cc item and is "sticking" to other things you upload.
Every time I've gotten that stupid counter is was Left and its a pain in the rear end. It tends to cause the game to crash.
I've never seen the Right one. It comes from downloading from the exchange so its always a good idea to check sims with custard. I once got it from a beautiful sim that was made as a gift for me. @Ciane, that is a different method from what I've used and it sounds great! I'm going to have to check my game now. I don't think I downloaded the national gallery lot yet, but it looks really great @seaben. Welcome to the team! @suzses I'm dying to go camping now!!!!
I'm just about done with my second water access lot. Its a big house so I furnished enough for a family then made the rest of it into apartments for NPCs. I might furnish the apartments so if someone wants to switch it to an apartment lot they can play it that way. For now it just has room markers and I only need to do something with the common areas.
I am staying home even more than usual and although I work from home, work is low this coming week, so I should be able to get a lot of building done! I'll be looking around for another lot soon. Suggestions are welcome of course!
My best wishes to all of you and your loved ones for good health.
@soocoolsim i wanted the L shaped shell next to the Java hut bakery and the 30x30 community lot with out the shell win I said flat lot I meant with out a shell

Ok @seaben , hopefully third time is a charm for us to get this right. I have you down for 3 commercial lots... correct now?
London Community lot 30x30 — seaben
Paris Community lot 30x30 — seaben
Paris Community lot 30x30 (Champs-Élysées) (interior design / shell tweaks) — seaben

Yes those are the lots I wanted to claim the 30x30 lot with out a shell I'm going to turn into a restaurant or garden or possibly a combination of the two
@Jessabeans , adding on to Ciane’s note re terrain paint... whenever you’re tweaking, the 30x30 lot behind Notre Dame I’m using for the graveyard has a small section of cobblestone where it should be grass. Very minor so no biggie.
Thanks @soocoolsim and @Ciane for letting me know, I'll add it to the list.
My spring festival lot didn't spawn any eggs. And I removed the doors to the facilities as sims would go inside the bathroom when told to go to the festival lot. Otherwise, the festival lot had no problems.
On the apartments, I was challenged again trying to make the NPC door. So, I just used the public area markers and the hidden room markers and I didn't set a front door or the NPC door. Also the sims never used the elevators though they did have the option to woohoo in it. I've finished both apartments and finished the book store and clothing store look that was set up, but I used a regular bar as a counter in the book store and I didn't put a cash register in either in order to avoid NPCs spawning.
@ciane , love all the fountains for the festival in Paris and can't wait to see what you have planned for Trafalgar Square. You've got your work cut out furnishing all those flats you've claimed
@soocoolsim, your version of Notre Dame looks magnificent ... I am extremely impressed especially as you are working with just the items that are available to us.
@suzses , your campground turned out beautifully and I'm amazed how much you were able to squeeze into a fairly small space
@seaben , I am so glad you've managed to get rid of that pesky Arezzo counter ... I must admit I was silly enough to install your National Gallery without custard checking first as I was too eager to check it out in game ... but thanks to @ciane 's really helpful advice advice it was not as difficult to 'exterminate' it as I first feared. You did a fab job with both of your builds!
@KarilynMonroe2 , I am very eager to see your next Venice build
I've finally finished my Venetian villa, hope it looks Italian enough :
There are more items on the store list than I anticipated. If there is any that don't come with a store set or world that Jessabeans has installed please forgive me and just disregard them as they not that important. Custard checked and all okay by the way.
The lots seem to go like hot cakes at the moment and I would really like to stake a claim for a couple more if possible @soocoolsim / @Jessabeans . Could you please put my name down for the residential 20x30 lot No2 in Venice and the 30x30 commercial lot allocated to a showtime venue in London. Thank you
Absolutely fantastic @Hidehi. As I mentioned on my page, I LOVE that orange brick pop of color on the exterior! I won't repeat all my other comments. You rock! So glad you are joining in.
@soocoolsim - @Hidehi is right. I should claim a couple of those small residential lots in Venice. I'd like two 20x30 lots. If 4 and 5 are open, I'll put dibs on those too.
Love your villa @Hidehi . I think it looks perfect. Very rustic, warm and welcoming. Well done! Link added to page 1 ❤️🌟
Also added both your claims, thank you.

I'm sorry @Hidehi that you installed the national gallery win it had the arezzeo bathroom counter attached to it I'm going to try to get rid of most of my cc because I'm not sure witch is the bad cc because I don't have that counter and that means it is sticking to some thing else i had installed and as for your build bravo just bravo👍👍👍
@Hidehi The villa is molta bella! The exteriors are perfect - love the awnings and fountain. Also especially love the kitchen and dining room. By the way, without checking, I recognize most of the Store items (of which there really aren't all that many considering the size of your build) - not sure about a couple things but think that's mostly because I didn't use them myself anywhere.
@Hidehi villa incanto is perfect! I too love the orangish pop on the one section! I had thought about going more that color but the house I found the pic of is more a pinkish or mauve color so I went with that. Venice is going to be so colorful!
I only saw 3 items that I don't remember having seen or could find on @KarilynMonroe2 list. I admit I'm not good at finding some of the items on Jessabeans list.
Lit Floral Lamp, ToyBox of Dreams and Clay's Collection.
I was trying to look at the maps to see where there might still be lots that would work for the cat jungle, and I'm just completing confused with all the lot claiming the last couple days. They're going like toilet paper. It's not like we have to have one; I just thought I'd do it if it worked out.
Are there any areas/types of lots that are lagging behind where I could help out?
Thanks @ciane I'm going to have a coffee shop a spa and theater on the first floor and I'm going to have the 2 or 3 floor be a art studio and use a level skip marker on the floor I don't use

Lol @ciane , I think you’re leading the pack on the spree with 10 current claims. Last 2 added to page 1. That should be enough to keep you busy for quite a while 😃
* * * * * * * * * * Let’s keep in touch on Answers HQ until the new EA forums are launched in July!
I, of course, decorated both apartments; so, I just placed this lot down and changed the hidden room markers. Then, I deleted the clothes and book store and put in a restaurant and arcade. Now, I've got to get my testers to upgrade the plumbing and appliances in the restaurant.
Also, I just need pics for the spring festival.
And, I've moved the testers back to London to that long row of apartments. So, I'll be working on that while doing the Winter festival lot.

Lol re the TP @suzses . That situation is just totally crazy. Yeah I’m trying to keep myself straight with all the claims too. Must be even harder for Jessabeans. I think it depends on what style you want to create for cat jungle. There are 30x30 or 20x30 community lots available. Perhaps just choose a lot from one of the lists and leave it up to Jessabeans on where to place within that destination?
