      FAQ

      Q: What if I never been to Vegas?

      A: That is perfectly fine! What I suggest is looking at Casinos in Vegas and looking at everything like rooms, spa, pool, bars etc. Also if you have every been to a Casino before they all have similar characteristics. Lastly, if you have a specific question about Vegas style or characteristics just ask!

      Q: Is it okay if a Casino is not on the main level?

      A: That is fine! Usually the casino part of the resort is on the main level but they are a few resorts that have it on multi levels or on a different floor.

      Q: If we do not own certain items to fulfill a room do we leave it blank or fill it in with similar objects?

      A: Please fill it in! Just have similar objects that kind of look like it, like a counter with tables around it and a chair behind it to resemble a poker table. If you need ideas on how to fill it in, just ask!

      Q: What do you suggest for a spa?

      A: Massage tables, sauna, jaccuzi, mini-pool, lounge chairs, a fitness room, a place to sell products, salon. Here is a link to my post about links to spas in Vegas.
      http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/30/749516.page#11975491

      Q: Do we need to have a resort tower?

      A: To function you need some sort of rabbit hole area. You can either show it or put it in a basement suggest by Mizzie.
      http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/45/749516.page#11976172

      Q: How many non- rabbit hole rooms do we need?

      A: You need at least 3 Regular rooms and 1 Luxury/VIP Room. You can have more of course. So that means you need at least 4 total Non- Rabbit Hole Rooms.

      Q: What do you define as a VIP Room?

      A: Bigger room, more in-room amenities, high quality furniture, better view, etc. A Penthouse Suite is a perfect example.

      Q: Is any lot size okay?

      A: Yes any lots size are okay, please make sure they are EA Lot sizes not mod lot sizes (aka biggest lot size is 64x64)

      Yes, these resorts will go great with LP! :mrgreen:

      Yay for more interested people!

      Also I recommend if you guys have not been to like Las Vegas or a big Casino City, you can go to their websites and get inspiration :)

      Also I have been to Vegas plenty of times so if you need advice or have any questions feel free to ask. Or any questions about the resort and contest :)
