@SmallAurelius if no one has shown you step-by-step and reposted you post with the gallery link by the time I get home, I will show you and add the link.
Housten, we have a problem. There's CC in the room and I didn't realise that it doesn't show up in the out-of-game gallery... that seems like a pickle.
Sorry everyone for the incorrect challenge banner numbering. The next challenge in line was one that might need 3 weeks again and didn't want to do two 3-weekers in a row. That threw off the numbering, but it's been fixed now. Sorry for the confusion!

ENTRY DETAILS: This houseboat was inspired by an image of a Cajun houseboat, so I thought Willow Creek would be the best place to build. It has three bedrooms and three bathrooms, with the guest bedroom and bath on the main deck. I tried to choose wall coverings and furniture that would make sense on a ship.

ENTRY DETAILS: John Buttercups grew up on the sea, learning how to steer a ship and fish and everything else associated with living on the ocean form his parents. Cordelia lived on the coast but spent a lot of time at sea as well. The two met in High School and instantly hit it off, marrying as soon as they could and setting out to live their lives at sea as much as possible. When their first ship was badly damaged, it seemed the perfect time to have a houseboat built just for them.

Hey everyone, been taking a break from this because I play in Laptop mode and as a result the terrain paint doesn't show on my builds - something vital for the BNS challenges. Hoping to get back into it but my builds might lack in terrain paints until there is a patch to solve the issue.

I play on my laptop too. I can get terrain paints to show - just hold down the brush and go over the same spot two or three times. Also move the softness slider to the far left if that's not enough. It works better for some terrain paints than others, but it does work. Maybe the difference is I don't set it to laptop mode? Or a different graphics card.

ENTRY DETAILS:
Cap'n John Buttercups and his first mate/wife Cordelia love the freedom of the ocean and spending the many simoleons John got from selling deep-sea loot on improving their houseboat. Cordelia is often judged for being with such an older man, but she's not (just) a gold digger; more reserved than her other half yet also a nature lover, the fit is perfect with John self-assured enough for the both of them and the rest of their shared lifetime with a passion to share between them. They both have a decent tan and are fairly fit due to their outdoorsy lifestyle. John is still quite a babe despite his age, as his passion for life and his young wife keep him sprightly.

Hey!
Unfortunately there is a known bug where if you play on the specific 'laptop mode' the terrain paints don't show. If I turn off laptop mode they would show but I don't want my laptop to crash during gameplay! My graphics card is perfectly fine and worked before the bug so I know it can't be that! I can only hope they bring out a new patch to fix it

The end result is a small yacht with three bedrooms and three bathrooms which looks like it could take at least a bit of a turn around a private lake. Rooms are small, with as much function to each as possible. More information is on my tumblr, linked above.

Hi, @SmallAurelius I can see your build in the in-game gallery and have verified the cost. You're good to go If you can get a build link by sharing to Twitter or Facebook, go that route. If not, just put "Room Cost Verified - https://forums.thesims.com/en_us/discussion/comment/16912233/#Comment_16912233" in the Room Link space on the Entry Form.
Sorry everyone for the incorrect challenge banner numbering. The next challenge in line was one that might need 3 weeks again and didn't want to do two 3-weekers in a row. That threw off the numbering, but it's been fixed now. Sorry for the confusion!
