Thanks TinTinnerson48, there is some custom content, I bodged together the tower roofs and some windows and other bits for the manor. There are one or two other bits that I added to add to the look of the town. I've seen Simbourne, and I really like the look of it, reminds me of a few places I've been in the summetimes…

All the best! Sure everything will be brilliant for you :) Gaz :)
-
Thank you soo much simsample! :) I've been itching to try and modify these so they fit in with my world better! Thanks again, all the best Gaz :)

Hey All, So I haven't given up on Abbingdon, I've just had life stuff to sort out, so it's been on a bit of a go-slow recently. However, this has given the plants in my world time to grow lol :lol: My approach with this world is to start in the middle of town and work my way outwards. So there are more details outside the…

Hey, I have a quick question about the traffic light. Does anyone know how, or where I could find one that's a bit more UK looking? Though these are great, the yellow isn't quite right for the UK-based world I'm building. Does anyone know how to recolour these? Many thanks Gaz :)

Hi Conorsim Happy to help with this, and thanks soo much for the gift!! :) Always happy to help out a fellow simmer if I can! Does look really great! Gaz 8)

Hi Conorsim, If you were still looking for some cooling towers for your power station, I have come across some at the link below: http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/details/category/sims3-objects/title/Cooling%20Tower/id/969910/ Either way - this is looking great! You have a great eye for detail! Love it - keep up…

Hey, I was wondering if anyone with the newer version can tell us if the "missing" Twinbrook objects are included? Thanks Gaz P.S. I too am liking the new avatar Rflong :)
-
Hi MrCrumplebottom, I don't know if it's any help, but I've been playing around with the new Ambitions stuff and found the fog emitter in CAW gives a nice fog effect. Just makes things seem quite cloudy, but is different from the normal game version. Hmm.. does that make sense? Not sure if you've tried it yet? Can't get a…

Hey drowssap, I don't think anyone can be angry at you. If it hadn't been you that discovered this I'm sure it would've been someone else. To be honest I'm glad that it's you that's brought this to our attention - at least we know this knowlesge is in safe hands :) I like the idea that it will unlock the missing twinbrook…

Is ebay the best way to go if you're in the UK? Does anyone know if these are expensive? Gaz :)

Alpine shores? Gaz :?

Hey, if it's any help I'm using two Distant Terrain's for my world. They don't actually sit perfectly flush, but it has helped me make the world seem landlocked. I'm going to stop the camera getting too close to try and hide the odd bits as much as I can anyway. I'll post some pics in a bit, tell me what you think - I…
-
Hey, Does anyone know how to get any of these items in the UK? I'd love the car and some of the other stuff, but they don't have the codes anywhere here :( Gaz
-
Hi TsunamiGirl, I really like what you have so far! It looks great and reminds me of some of the more countrified parts of the UK. Actually thinking whilst I type, it reminds me of a place in Somerset where I went camping last year! :) Really picturesque! I think I might just have to bookmark this one! Gaz :)
-
Hi BluebellFlora, I know the ones you mean. There are only three to choose from in the list of world objects. I think they're called: Fence River Rail. There should be a post, a wall and a changing level wall (only way I can think to describe it) :shock: I'll double check later when I get home, but it sounds about right.…
-
Rflong this world is just beautiful! :D I don't know how you do it, but blimey you do it so brilliantly well! Seeing your worlds always inspires me to tackle the terrain paint on my world :) Although my efforts come no-where near as well done as your own. I must try harder lol! And I agree - you can never have enough…
-
Hey, me again! I've just come out of EIG and back into normal CAW - and guess what? It recognises the store objects and the cc objects! So I can see the church I built with the Castle Kits set items from the store showing! As you can see below: Though this isn't world shattering stuff - it's made me quite happy! Now my…
-
Yay!!! FINALLY I can use Ambitions with CAW. I've noticed that some objects are missing too, like the traffic lights and the darn dam lol! On the plus- got loads of new objects to play with and new trees! Yippeee! Gaz :)
-
Hey, Just being a bit cautious - very excited to be able to finally use Ambitions with CAW - but has anyone tried this out and got their CAW to work again? Gaz :)
-
Hi again all! Thanks heavenlyangel14 - I think I've still got some way to go yet - least of all the painting and adding the trees! Before I do that I'm going to have a small test to make sure it doesn't lag like the last version - that was a sad day :cry: Anyway, more pictures. Looking down on the town from the abbey: This…
-
So as promised, a few pics showing the new town layout. Main town overhead view: A closer view of the High street in it's new position: The new entrance to the Croft Estate (minus terrain paint and vegetation) As you can see, the terrain hasn't really been painted, I think Regina's approach is great so I'm working from mud…

OK, so an update - finally :oops: Well I've been working hard on this and making good progress. I got as far as actually exporting a version to the full game. Looked great but.. it was lagging terribly! I have no idea why as I had rebuilt the routing. The game would just freeze up for nearly minutes at a time. I've read on…
-
So there's no update for this yet? Aww I was hoping there would be - I'm itching to use Ambitions! I've got a few lots all ready for the Ambitions goodies! I've prevented my game from updating so I can keep using CAW. Hopefully I'll be able to get this finished soon so I can enjoy the world and play the game for a little…
-
At the moment, I'm quite glad that we got Ambitions a few days later here in the UK. Although I'm itching to install it - it's currently sat patiently waiting for me as I type - I'm holding off until either the patch has been released, or I finish my world - whichever comes first. I have played the Sims 3 a few times, and…
-
Hi again, Well I've spent most of last night working on my world. I've saved a copy of it to a separate folder. I just wanted to double check from anyone who has installed this patch, if this is likely to protect the work that I've done? I really hope that this is cured by tomorrow (lol - no pressure there!) Btw - is there…
-
I'm in the Uk and haven;t received Ambitions yet. So, wondering if I should go hell-for-leather and work really hard on my world and save 2 copies before installing the game. I've been saving the lots to the library as I go anyway, so I guess I could work on these once I have installed it and until the game is fixed? I…
-
Hi tea_and_blues, Have you made any progress with this lagging issue? I'm testing my world and I have a freezing problem which sounds similar to the one that your testers have experienced. I'm going to re-do the routing/camera paints and make sure all the trees are in the same seperate layer and try again. the only thing I…
-
Wow I've been trying to post on here all day - hope it's just my end... I've been really looking forward to Ambitions and the potential new world and build/buy objects it will bring! I do hope that this is only a temporary issue - has anyone else who has bought Ambitions had the same problem as Robo? Gaz :?:
-
Hey, just a thought... Do you think that this could be some sort of market research-y type thing? You know, EA puts out an idea to see how people react, and what sort of things they would like to see in it? After all, they have said they listen to the fans to find out what we want... Hmmm, just a random thought I had…
Howdy, Stranger!
