PREVIEW 2

I've removed the older pictures, due to changes made to the world, since then.

THE STORY SO FAR

This weeks building started very badly, I had a rogue texture that just would not get deleted, when you start your week like that you now it's going to be a bad week, about 10 hours later after stripping down caw, until it was naked and turning my pc upside down, I found the little culprit, so on with the building or so I thought.

I was about to start a one of them jolly good late night building runs, when some nutter decided he wanted to break into my house, luckly my baseball bat and a squad of police cars fixed that problem. So we can say if was not for Caw, I would probable not have front TV just about now.

I spent the rest of the week with chronic toothache, I found away that with a boiling hot tea bag, but we wont go into that.

Did I get any building done this week, I did get some done here are the latest picture of the world:-

    HOLY CRAP!!!
    By "neon city of lights and culture", I thought you meant las vegas, but this is the incredible colour palette of nyan cat's rainbow farts exploded over some spiky terrain and some incredible design that only you can come up with! :shock: I am so excited to see what you're coming out with next, and think it'll be great (has someone made an actual nyan cat in pets yet?) :lol:

    I did find a excellent cat on the exchange that would fit very well into this world, I think they made it for lunar lakes:-

    Cheers, I'm trying to add lots of contrast to the world, a mix of light and colour with a dark contrast.
    Capitol in the Hunger Games!
    I've not seen the film yet, but I've had a little look a the virtual tour pics of the capital, it is the type of look I would like, dark and light contrast.

    A full update will be ready on the 10th I will show your more of the world and what I've done with the towers and the central island location. I will show this in a lot more depth, but here is the latest picture from the world:-

    Diancarock- I do play the game myself when I get chance, so I do understand when people say it's a nice way to play the game diffrent, one thing I like to do is use the Architectural designer career on one my first sims so I can explore the designs used in the world and change residential lots to similiar themes.

    Evalen- Many thanks

    SHadowfiend69- First up, I'm not 100% of your skill level when it comes to building, which I mean with no disrespect, so if your trying to build a skyscaper, I recommend you view steph_444444 fantastic tutorial on how to build the skyscrapers. (I wish I had found this tutorial two weeks ago, it would have made my job a little easyer)
    http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-fake-skyscraper-sims-3-406051/

    Next have a little look at this
    This is actual the Vampire Lounge, so I will use this in the example:-
    Screenshot-7-34.jpg
    I used a red glow in this building
    Screenshot-9-33.jpg
    A crucifix shape was placed on the roof
    Screenshot-10-28.jpg
    This is the lot from the inside, this lot works like the Vampire lounge from the main game, you can get elevator upto the nightclub etc
    Screenshot-11-29.jpg
    Ok this is how you do the lights, use the following cheats, moveobjects on and if your do a cummonity lot use RestrictBuildBuyInBuiding off. Next goto the buydebug menu and find the Wall area light (I used 3X3 light in my lot). Then it's a simple job of placement, It can get a little tricky to place correctly, you can see I placed the front two at a diagonal. Just side note when your playing the game you will not see them lights they will be hiddden from view. When you have all the lights placed, if you hold down your ctrl and shift and click on one of the lights you will see a hidden menu pop up, you will a set colour menu and a set intensity menu, you can edit them, until you get a effect you like.

    Lizziguin - Many Thanks :mrgreen:

    After very long time of not working on this world, I wonted to put to rest this world and get it finished, so I've been testing the world today inside the game.

    Much of the texture of the world have been ironed out and the world pretty much complete, I still have a few small areas to flesh out and some more tweaking but it should be ready for upload soon.

    You can see from the new pics, I've updated the world for seasons, the picture are taken from in-game, I'm not currently experiencing any caw problem like others have reported, so work on the world is going pretty good at the moment.

    On a positive note, the delay has meant the world is updated through Seasons! :lol:

    Very nice of you to put up a couple of the lots now. Your festival grounds look like a lot of fun.
