I love all the beautiful builds but can't seem to get any of them to look right. Everything is covered with toy trains and mounted fish instead of ivy, etc. I have all the expansion packs but Into the Future. Is there some particular content package I need? Probably a dumb question, but I would love to make this world and its buildings and homes look right.

The ivy comes from some store sets, I think? Brunch At The Old Mill and Villa Paraiso, maybe? You can find them separately HERE. Whenever that happens with a lot, it's usually because I don't have those items installed from the store

I think we used a lot of the ivy from Brunch at the Old Mill, as well as the chimneys from there. In fact, looking at it I wouldn't be surprised to find we had used almost every item from that set somewhere or another. I think having it would go a long way to making at least your exteriors look right. The collab does allow all store content, all expansions, and all stuff packs, though, so you may encounter some other odd things here and there.
Thanks @StephSteb and @suzses. I've added Brunch at the Old Mill and it does have a lot of ivy, although I still seem to have to place it myself. I compared my version of the Town Hall with the pictures @soocoolsim posted, and I'm still getting that stupid wall-mounted fish and the toy train on the red shelf in place of some bits of ivy and, I think, wisteria. Tried deleting the world and all the builds and clearing all the caches and re-uploading, and still struggling. Oh, well. Everything is still beautiful and this is a really amazing collaboration. :)
@Elizzabelle I'm glad you like it, although too bad you're still having problems with some things not showing. The wisteria is from Dragon Valley, in case you hadn't figured that out. I've had to redownload some lots at times after I've installed something that was missing, and then they would be ok, although other times I've been able to simply place the lot again from my bin. Not sure why that is, but it's been my experience. I'll look at the town hall and see if other ivy is used and where it's from and let you know what I find.
The stage is set for any aspiring performance artist to make it big in Ackney-upon-Sherne and beyond. Camping and bonfires are allowed. There are plenty of things to do for sims not interested in watching the shows. Design by Hidehi. (Permanent tents by Aynat13)
Yay it’s up,! Very nice park @Hidehi . My goodness, quite an unexpected surprise in the basement. So much more than meets the eye. Now I understand why sims head down there. love it!

Great park @Hidehi! It was definitely a surprise to me about that basement because the first time I went into the lot I totally missed seeing that there was a basement, lol. Beautiful performance park with so much to do (and even lots more to do down in the basement!)
@Hidehi I'm so sorry, I just realized I missed commenting here about your wonderful performance park. It's quite beautiful and the underneath was a fun surprise! Loads to do regardless of the weather.
Built in the early 1920ies this typical English detached bungalow comprises 2 beds, 1 bath, kitchen/dining room and lounge with open fireplace, BBQ area and the potential of adding your own vegetable patch.
When cars became the 'in thing' and washing by hand became a thing of the past a one car garage with laundry facilities was added to the bungalow in the 50ies.
Had a good workout at the Faerway Fitness & Aquatics Gym or a nice pampering at the Escape Day Spa? Come and finish your day with a visit to Friar Tuck's van for the most yummy greasy food in all of Ackney-upon-Sherne. Our bacon and egg baps are second to none and if your heart and stomach should complain we are just next door to the local hospital.
Their staff and patients can often be found munching our food instead of the super healthy options on the hospital's menu.
3 bed 2 bath thatched storybook home with pretty cottage garden right out of a fairy tale.
Open plan living, dining and kitchen area. TV and reading nooks. Outside you'll find a firepit, BBQ, vegi patch and a summerhouse.
The cottage is furnished for up to 5 sims and suitable for a family with older children.
Love the quaintness and colourful garden of Badgers End @Hidehi ! Will download later for a walk through when on the computer. Rec’d in the meantime. Well done! 🌸🌟

@Hidehi, I'm back after taking a walkthrough of Badgers End and it's so warm and cozy inside and the kitchen is really cute. Love that one of the bedrooms is up in the attic. The landscaping and all of the things there are to do in the yard are really nice, especially love the grill/outdoor dining area and the cute little playhouse. Well done and such a nice addition to the Forge Road area.
I really can´t wait to see the finished world. If any of you gets a job offer by EA, let me know- I will definitely buy whatever game you will be working on @Hidehi Me and ´er is a little scary. It reminds me way to much of the houses I´ve seen in the area where a friend lives
Thank you all for your kind comments every one of them is most appreciated!
@soocoolsim , I've actually had a lot of fun trying to 'plant' a typical English cottage garden 🌻🌼🌷
Thank you so much for circling back @Sandraelle . I'm very glad that you like the inside too
@annasommer 🤣 , you can find this kind of bungalow all over England (no wonder you were having a deja-vu moment ), many are often semidetached and come in clusters on housing estates and I thought it would be fun to include one in AuS
