    Okay! so I was experimenting with basements and came up with a pretty cool idea to add windows to a basement without it looking too weird. Here you go! tell me what you think :)

      That's a great idea! I'll have to try that.

      I'm hoping we'll be able to possibly make houses on hillsides in the future, and have walk-out basements as a result. This is a cool implementation until then. :)

      Thanks! I just finished the house and it functions so amazingly. I still have to find some sort of better boarder to the window wells than those huge clunky boarder fences...ill post pics of the finished basement and windows.

      @axel1015 Maybe try some fences as the bordering? And okay! I shall await those pics.

      Hmmm, left, right, or original? (right is the small metal fencing, sorry for the small pictures)

      The right one looks better, though, it would be nicer if there was a border that was half foundation, half fence.

      Fantastic idea and not that weird as some real townhouses do have basement windows like that. I too am interested as to whether we will be able to do walk out basements though. love those!

      There is a way to place windows in basement with moveobjects. I think that they will lighting and you wont need this little holes in the ground floor. :)

      I can't see the original pics. Is there a way to find them? I'm interested in how they look.
