    It doesn't even look like a clothesline to me.

    Well, it does need to be something you can rotate and see from any angle.

    I think we hung clothes on like 5 lines in our backyard. Pretty normal for me to have more than just one or two lines. But there are so many types.

    That sounds pretty much like the one my mother had before we got a dryer. When my hubby and I finally bought our first house, we used the laundromat for about the first year. Until we got used to the mortgage payment. Then we took our first Income Tax RETURN and bought a washing machine. There were two empty T-shaped poles in the backyard, that I quickly recognized. We needed to get all new line and restring the clothes line. There were at least four lines, if memory serves.

    While there are certainly a wide variety of different clotheslines out there, such as the type that @kwanzaabot posted, this style is the one we've chosen to go with for this pack. If we create alternate versions, they'd still follow this same basic shape with the same number of lines.

    Is there a version without the spandrel things on the poles?

    I guess its just because I never saw one like it before when we used clothes lines it was always one big one @SimGuruGraham :)

    I am sure custom creators will be able to make less chunky versions, and I wouldn't be surprised if the more experienced ones could reduce the number of lines as well.

    Yes please to this. It's cool to have the option but I'd also like to see a simple version without them.

    I agree ! I don't think it looks too bulky personally, but I'd rather have a simpler version without the spandrels too.

    They would be lovely for any household with a garden. And I love the German name for it: Wäschespinne, washed clothes' spider.
  • IngeJonesIngeJones Posts: 3,247 Member
    I think the "slightly too bulky" look of the objects in this game is part of their chosen art style. I think they were aiming for a dolls house feel - you know how if you go below the collectors' 1:12 scale (where the furniture makers try very hard to keep in perfect scale) down to 1:16/18 the usual child's toy scale, the furniture of necessity starts to become "chunky". If it didn't, it would be too fragile to work with. I think that's what inspired the TS4 chunky look.

    I agree, it's not too bulky but more than one 'finish' would be nice.

    I think you should just be glad you're getting such a thing. Just remember they would have to get the clothing in between the wires and also the animation patterns needs to be there.

    I was just doing what @SimGuruGraham asked he said on twitter we should give feedback on the pack as soon as we can while there still working on it @Daniel_Bankss

    I was kind of hoping for a smaller clothesline that could be used on back porches in lower income neighborhoods.

    We had this kind years ago, with the bag clipped on to hold all the clothespins!

    I never even knew they had fancy ones though, which looks like the spindled one shown?

    We used to hang lines from the fence when we used to stay with our Aunt. Wonder if they will put some fences tall enough to put lines on to hang the clothes? Think that would be a cool idea for low income sims house holds. (No cheating with that xD).

    it can stretch the shirts out of shape and you need to either wash them again, or iron them - Lol im OCD when it comes to how i do washing :D
