I'm gonna play in Appaloosa Plains but make it over with a wealthy downtown with luxury mansions and high-rises and then a middle class side and then the farming country side which will take a long time....
I'm definitely gonna give the new town a try. However, since I haven't played much in Hidden Springs, I might move over to there if I don't like the new town.
AP looks amazing, so I'll probably try it out. But right now I downloaded the Sunset Valley second edition with more lots and everything that someone posted on here and I'm customizing it a little more, like adding some highrises and some new families.
I'm unsure as to whether or not this has been mentioned, but what are the world dimensions for Appaloosa Plains? If not dimensions, then just a rough estimate of size (ie: Large, Medium, etc.) or a comparison would suffice.
Obviously the game is yet to be released, but I mention "comparison" because I vaguely remember a statement from the team before LN's release. Something along the lines of Bridgeport being larger than Twinbrook. So I simply wondered if a similar statement has been made in reference to Appaloosa Plains.

From the screenshots we have seen, it's far more open than Bridgeport for one.
Before pets my favourite world was Bridgeport, it was the biggest and it catered to all my needs. i played hidden springs for a bit but it was too small with not enough people. my main problem with bridgeport is if you play for a couple of generations you end up with like 90% of your neighborhood sims being homeless. which gets pretty old.
if Generations had come out with a world that probably would have been my fave, i like the themes that came with generations.
Did i hear somewhere that those who had late night Appaloosa Plains would come with some clubs? or do i have to make them myself?
Anyone know how big Appaloosa plains is compared to other towns?
I play Bridgeport for the exact reasons you said. From what I've heard, Appaloosa Plains does come with some pre-made clubs in the bin specifically for AP if you have Late Night installed, which makes me happy. From the looks of it, Appaloosa Plains appears pretty big too, with a concentrated central town, at least 3 "neighborhoods" (with 5 or so houses all right next to each other), and a wide rural area... along with some random houses on the outskirts of town. Not sure about exact dimensions though.
For those guys that like to play Bridgeport, how do you deal with the error 12s?
For me, they tend to happen if I play for long periods of time, so I just save often, and when the error 12's happen, exit the game and try again. Hopefully I'll like Appaloosa Plains enough to stay there and avoid error 12's altogether. Hopefully.

I sorta kinda plan to do the same thing, and I love your username, by the way.
I've been messin' around in Riverview lately, but I think I will try out AP for a change. I also want to buy Hidden Springs at some point in the future.
I love to build homes and venues. It helps me relieve stress after long days at work.

I started a fresh game in Bridgeport only a couple of days ago, so I'm probably going to stick to that. I will check out Appaloosa Plains though, and assuming it looks great & is big enough, I might give birth to a second neighborhood.
For those guys that like to play Bridgeport, how do you deal with the error 12s?
I get more RAM. Error 12, anyway, caused by running out of RAM in the first place. This tends to happen more to large, cluttered worlds like Bridgeport for instance. I upgraded my ram some time ago and haven't experienced Error 12 since.
Thank you for the info (and thus breaking my little fragile heart, LOL), Cyron. I'll have to move my Sims to AP then. It makes perfect sense that there are no wild horse packs in Bridgeport, of course, but I was still hoping.... well, at least, now I know beforehand and can plan accordingly. :-)
I am currently playing (always have been playing) Sunset Valley.
However, I will be moving over to Appaloosa Plains. I just reeeeeally hope that there are heaps of 64x64 lots. I love playing and building on large lots.
Does anybody know what size lots Appaloosa Plains has?

Simply judging from the screenshots, I can safely say that there will be huge lots indeed.The lower area seems to be composed of the largest lots.
I really want to try out AP. maybe start a legacy there. Right now Im working on one in Sunset Valley, I may give them pets. I cant wait to see deer running around. I like to make the back lots in Sunset valley more wooded with big cabins. The deer will make it look even better.

That sounds good. I'm not good at judging sizes through photos. :P
I'm playing Bridgeport too, since it has everything already but will probably go to AP too when I get Pets.
I always make a brand new Sim too, to play with everything properly.

Me, pally and a few others have spent weeks building it up from scratch, so it will be nice to finally play it out with all lots existing
