Hello!
A couple of us from the Flip Team decided to do a collaborative project for Fidler's Extreme Mansion Challenge. It was a huge undertaking and I think everything that could go wrong for each of us did, but we battled on and prevailed at the end!
The rationale to our build is that we wanted to utilize all of our strengths. We figured this type of lot would be the perfect fit for a project like this. Not only did we have SimEve's machinima and story-telling expertise, we also had great interior designers who have their own niches, so we did our best to showcase everyone's strengths.
Best if placed on 25 Summer Hill Court. At over 800k simoleans fully furnished, this extreme movie studio contains over 30 different sets and scenes for machinima and story tellers to use to create common scenes they may need for their stories.
Some important notes:
Since this is a massive lot, please only play this lot if you have a relatively decent system.
No custom content objects were used. The only CC on this lot are patterns from each person's own collection.
No premium store items were used except the ones that are FREE. Please take the time to download the free items if you haven't before entering this lot.
This lot is fully playable as a residential lot. However, since this is technically a movie studio, many of the sets have objects placed as props and are for decoration purposes only.

Very awesome, good luck in the competition guys - all of my team (inclusive of myself) had to pull out... so hope you win! Good stuff guys!
- Mmyoko out.
linday it is huge. if we could build community lots like TS2 it would be perfect for that. i think everything flows like you mentioned, it turned out well
simeve i also have to add how amazing the story was but i have to ask a few things. was i the obvious one to put in the jail cell? what AM i doing outside that bedroom? and in the dance studio are all of you giving me googly eyes :? :shock:
so glad we got it finished.
What an AWESOME and AMAZING effort by some of the most talented SIms 3 builders out there. Still speechless..
:shock:

Now I don't fancy my chances at all in the challenge!!! lol
My favorite is the Ballet trainingsroom so easy and simple !
MmYoko- I would have made a movie if my computer wasn't ancient! I just got a new one too, lol, just not in time! Sorry you guys had to back out of the competiton!
Garbuckle-No way! You're mansion is awesome!
Special mention must be made to the Victorian themed rooms... Breathtaking!
Many congratulations!
celt_gemini: Appreciate you stopping in the thread to endorse the lot! We seemed to have claimed your post virginity! :twisted:
Moe: Alli went on vacation, but that dance studio is totally fab, so on her behalf, I give you a kitty.
garbuckle: We knew there was going to be some amazing mansions like you did, so of course, we had to take it in another direction!
yanti68: Thank you, dahling!
valen: Aren't I lucky that they agreed to be on my team? I wouldn't have been able to pull it off otherwise! This turned out 100x better than what I originally planned.
peacy: That jail cell is yucky! You wouldn't want us to get our pretty dresses dirty now, right?
linday: Thanks!
Mmookie:
J: Thanks for all your help again. Not only with the testing, but the diagrams. You know how I those diagrams.
Ralphie: Thanks for all your help too and putting up with my moodiness with the lot. =p

Evie: I LOVE that story!! I had to laugh at so many parts of it...The slumber party had me laughing. Peacey at the door, listening...Ha!! And the jail cell and dance room scene. Poor Peacey got the bad end of the whole deal, didn't he? I guess that's what happens when the girls gang up on you and you're the only guy on the team, lol.
It was the bumblebee chairs that got you, wasn't it? Come on...admit it now. Buuuuumblebee chairs...
Lol, thank you so much for the wonderful compliment! Anju did a smashing job on the reception room as well with the Victorian furniture, didn't she?
I had a really fun time working on this with all of the other team members. It was very neat to watch it all come together (and almost fall apart) at the end. That's one gigantic lot!
