Renovating Sunset Valley - Meet & Greet

oliv3 · May 2020

Hi guys, I'm Olive!

I am new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself with a possible fun way to get to know you guys through your creativity, if you guys are interested.

RENOVATING SUNSET VALLEY!

As a fellow simmer, I love renovating premade sims’ homes. EA choice in building, decorating and so forth, in my opinion, is not aesthetically pleasing.

There are no guidelines or restrictions to this, unless you would like to do so for yourself. Just pick a family & renovate their home.

Here’s a list of households for your convenience:

Alvi family
Andrews family
Bachelor family
Bunch family
Clavell family
Crumplebottom family
French family
Frio family
Hart family
Jolina family
Keaton family
Koffi family
Landgraab family
Langerak family
McIrish family
Roomies household
Sekemoto family
Steel family
Wainwright family
Wan-Goddard family
Wolff family
Working Friends household

Hi @socoolsim !
Just took a look at your Disneyland Paris Resort and its absolutely stunning.. The details of the exterior and interior is so detail oriented, I can't imagine the time it took and without CC!! Definitely spawned some sentimental memories of being at Disneyland as a child.
EA should hire you, just recommended it on the exchange

Does it have to be a renovation of the exact house? I created a house for the bachelors and called it Greener and Greener, but it isn't the same house and it's on a bigger lot.

@Earcat it does not have to be the exact house! Theres no restrictions to this. Just want to meet people & see their creativity since Sims 3 players are a dying breed /:

@Earcat - lovely home & interesting story line for the Bachelor's! Makes me want to play them! I like how you did an open floor plan on the first floor. Also, just realized the other day that the sprinklers ACTUALLY water sims' gardens!

Earcat · June 2020

Thank you very much. If your sim has the handiness skill, the sprinklers can be upgraded to autowater, no more wilting plants. That's the neat thing about The Sims. You can take a family, bring them back in time to when they were first married, or earlier than that. How did Simis and Jocasta meet? You might say that he went to the bookstore to do research for an article, but was Jocasta always a bookstore clerk? She might have taken a part time job so she could work and spend time with her children, but if she wasn't a bookstore clerk before she got married, what did she do?

I love your idea. I do the same thing - renovate EA homes - and love it. I particularly love to redo the Wolff home and Sekemoto one.

I thought I'd share some pics this way:

Hi @ciane !

Thank you for sharing! Love how you try to keep the original EA look, but significantly approve the curb appeal along with the interior. Also, I appreciate how you go in depth explaining how you do things, such as the CFE cheats and I am sure your other blog readers to do so too!
