  • I've pre-ordered mine from Amazon - although interestingly it does show a delivery estimate of 4th June. At a wild guess, I'm wondering if they'll send it out on the wednesday or something so I get it on the 4th? I know Play usually does that with any pre-orders :) Here's hoping - I really can't wait for this!! Gaz :)
  • I really do have to agree, I think Twinbrook really does look great! I really love the look they have gone for with this and I'm really impressed by the pictures I have seen so far! I can't wait to get my claws into this!! Gaz :)
  • Hey EmmieLillabet, The charge point is amongst the community buildings (e.g the Police Station) in build/buy mode. At the moment you can only add it to Community lots. As far as I can tell, it only seems to be decorative at the moment though. Hope this helps Gaz :)
  • Hi drowssap, Don't worry about having your world spread over different places. i already have a few different versions of mine as I keep moving everything around, re-doing the roads and changing the terrain. BUT I save it as a new name in case I don't like it. I've done that twice now in the past month! my buildings too…
  • Hey, If you have a number pad on your keyboard, you can use the 8 and the 2 to tilt the camera. Took me a while to figure it out, but it works without any problems for me. :) Gaz :)

  • Hi Molly Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions :) I was wondering if you had more info on the new workplaces. Is it possible for you to make your own fire station from scratch, or do you have to use the same building? Thanks again Gaz :)
  • I've been having this problem too. At first, I thought it might be due to the detail resolution in the options, so I turned this down but it hasn't made any difference. I do have a lot of trees in my world, but I don't know if it's this, or if it's likely to be that I have a few too many lots - accidentaly ended up with…
  • Another quick update. Though I don't actually seem to have made much progress since last time, I have decided on a new approach. I have the lot placement pretty much sorted, I may tweak the lot sizes a little but I'm happy with the layout. I've exported a version of this into the game so I can finish building the lots the…
  • Hey Sverami This looks like the Distant Terrain world object. If you check the World Layers pane on the left side of the screen, you should be able to find and delete/move this if you wanted. Hope this helps Gaz :)
  • Hey vssdgames, This is really looking great! I was thinking about how to make a really good Hogwarts using seperate lots, but yours is even better than I couldv'e thought! :) Just in case you needed more reference pics, I found a different view of the castle: You've probably seen it before, but just in case really :)…
  • Hi rsedorothy, Sorry for the delay in replying. I've gone back to the leisure centre and discovered that the lot size is a bit odd. When I first started I made the lots weird sizes to fit in. I've been slowly going through these to make them more round numbers. The leisure centre is currently 42x42, but I'm looking to…
  • Hey fairygirlaislin :) I really love the idea of an older London - can't wait to see your progress. I've found some great textures on Mod The Sims by a lday called Martine. There is a link on here somewhere, I'll try and find that for you. I've ot a cobbled road in my world, which I made using the river rocks! Sounds…
  • Hi Elilie101, I'll try and find a way to send these over to you. It may be on the weekend? I was going to add the intersections to create a complete set. How soon do you need these? Gaz :)
  • Well here I am with yet another update :) I've updated some of the roads in town to the UK ones I've managed to create (I was as surprised as anyone with that I think!). I've been working on the layout of the high street lots the past week or so, as I wasn't really happy with what I had so far. There was something about…
  • Hi babybuzzing28, Looks like you've made a great start there :) Have you got any pictures of the island without the fog, it's a bit tricky to make out some of the details. Love what you have so far though. Good luck - keep building. Gaz :)
  • I've been working on the Estate for the last few weeks. I've added a few "garden" lots as well as more trees and a bit more terrain sculpture. This is an overall view of the estate. To the bottom right are the stables/garage areas. Below is the newest addition; the Rose Garden: Just a quick update today anyway :) Gaz
  • Hi KickRamone, I like what you've done so far :) Just a few quick questions: are the steps down to the riverside on a lot, or made in CAW? I was wondering where you got that brilliant paving slab texture from also, as I'm looking to find a similar texture for my main hight street? Thanks, and keep up the good work Gaz :)
  • Hey everyone, Many thousand thanks for your help with this :D I've had a play around and it seems that I might have cracked it. Below is a shot of my new road lines. I'm so happy they seem to be working fine this time :thumbup: This is great, as now I know how to tweak these should I need to! Many thanks again to Regina…
  • I hope that we get either recolourable roofs, or be able to maybe have more than one colour roof per lot! Just thinking as I'm building some community lots for my world :) Can't wait for this one though Gaz :)
  • OK, so I've managed to add the stripes and dashes as I want them, but the actual texture of the road seems to be repeating :shock: Does anyone know how to fix this? I notice that when the original lines is selected, the background is black, and the main road texture comes through without tiling. Can anyone help? Thanks Gaz
  • Hi Regina, Many thanks for your help with this one :) In my excitement to get started with it, I completely forgot to say thank you :oops: I'm having a play with this now in Photoshop so I can get the lines the way I wanted. I'm trying to duplicate the road I have round where I live, the usual style for them is: Once I…
  • :)You know, I'm wondering if it'll be a case of the game providing the "parts" for the new jobs? You know, like a firman's pole, and fire engine, etc for the firestation? That way we can create our own building for the career? I'm sure I read somewhere that the Tattoo career was basically a chair that can be put into a…
  • Hi roxydaisy001, This is looking very nice! You've really captured something pretty with this world build :) I really love your idea for the bus stops - so much so in fact that I might borrow the idea for my world :-) I was wondering what size lot you created for the bus-stops? I'm going to bookmark this thread to keep up…
  • Just a mini update, I've added the background to the town on the main page now. I've added a few more lots, including a fire station pending the release of Ambitions - doesn't hurt to be prepared right? :wink: I've been working a bit more on the landscape and the terrain paint too, trying to tidy stuff up. Hope to have…
  • I agree! Looking forward to reading your progress on this. Good luck, Gaz :)
  • Since I've been here last, I've done some work on the Estate gardens. So I can convey the idea that the estate is quote vast, I've created a bit of a visual cheat. The Rear garden of the manor is one lot which blends into an extended garden lined with trees. I've added a small lot, I think it was 10x10, at the end and…
  • I really do like the sound of this EP! There are so many extra things it sounds like we can have more commercial-style lots/activities in town. I hope that this means we can create our own fire stations, tattoo parlours etc. It sounds like they're adding some great things in for lot building in general with this - really…
  • Well I must say I have missed this place! Glad that we can all get back on now and get updated on everyone's progress. It's amazing how much I've missed it! This is always such a great place to be inspired and share ideas. It's also a great place to get help and help out others and share any useful tips! Great to be back -…
  • Hi SilverDragon111, The road on this area is made up of several different pieces of road which I shaped into a basic ring. The road that the houses are on is a dead end. To get a better idea of the layout, you can see it below: Hope this helps? Gaz :)
  • OK, just a few pics as promised. I've added a few more windows to the rear of the market place: Another view of the museum: This is a new lot. Basically this is a restaurant at the end of an alley way. There are shops either side: Finally, I've added a riverside "pub" just up the river from Duck Marsh Lock: I've got to do…
