    Good Victorian Worlds?

    Can anyone point me in the direction of some classically Victorian worlds? You know, places modeled on London circa 1880s with cobble streets and such. Midnight Hollow does have some appeal in this regard (and I do own MH) but I'm looking for something more on the urban side of things. Like, maybe a remodeled Bridgeport or something.

      I wish! I am far from familiar with all user made CAW worlds, but have tried so many, most wonderful, and cannot think of a one in that era and style. A wonderful niche to fill for a creator I'd say. :)

      If I had any skill at CAW, I'd give it a try myself. But, alas. ^_^

      I have a german world that you might be interested in that shares many characteristics. Not finished, but I can share a few pics.

      Do either of these interest you? The top one is Grey Meadow, and the bottom one is Huntsborough. Huntsborough is still in its beta stage, though. Both are by Quailhogs.

      Ruthless KK makes Victorian builds and has a couple worlds like what you are seeking perhaps - I know one is Everything Island or something like that. Check her page and you may find her worlds - but everything she builds is in that grand style as does Quailhogs - He has 4 nice worlds in that style - besides the ones mentions their is Stoneshields and his Nowegian world.

      Cotes D' Ambonnay by ReachSim and Sorcier X is a nice era world. here's the thread for this one: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/717032.page

      Elle has a world called Moon Valley which is sort of a fantasy world of that same era.

      There are lots of period worlds, you just have to search for them. Also all the ones I mentioned are by some good builders and all play wonderful.

      WR, all the ones you mentioned are wonderful. As far as feeling transported to another time and place, Cotes d'Ambonnay is a masterpiece. Quailhog's worlds are very cohesive, with ambiance...I'd never suggest a thing to him, but he'd be very good and very dark in creating a sort of Jack-the-Ripper backround.

      Personally, I'd like the costuming with the bustles and parasols and high tea (we could really use a tea set from the store). Seraphina Feye would be amazing at the colors, but she seems busy right now.

      Al Medina is another favorite, Zach, what is your German World?

      Aptly named Victoria Isles. I know she is an awesome builder although I've not tried the world....
