Sim Tropico Smord
...a part of the Sim Tropico Hood Project I'm working on.
Community lot & Ownable Car Dealership
lobby - bathrooms - lounge/seating areas - vending
No CC!

This is one of the business lots in my new "Beachy Hood" project.
It will be included with that hood, when it is released... someday soon!
Meanwhile - here is a preview version of this lot for your own hood.

This is how the lot will look the first time you open it. (Parking spaces are not invisible yet!)

After my test-sim Sofia bought the lot from her home phone, she went to the lot to set it up...





This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever been here.
The lot was built in a sim-free building hood.
It was cleaned and compressed with Chris Hatch's Lot Compressor.
The package was then cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.
The sun is oriented to the front.
This lot has an easily identifiable custom thumbnail too.

There is no parking, unless you use mods/cheats.

TIP: If, when you first enter the lot, arches/doorways are not "cut through" - save, exit to the hood, and re-enter. Fixed!

Tips to better use this lot:
- To sell cars: Your Sim must purchase the lot as a business prior to adding any cars to the lot for sale. If you attempt to add cars to the lot in build mode before buying the lot they will disappear once the lot is purchased. To purchase cars to sell, use the business control panel in the upper right corner of the screen and access the wholesale catalog.
- To place sellable cars anywhere on the lot - open your cheat panel: (type control+shift+c)
type moveobjects on in the upper box, press enter
Cars do not "have to be" on the car display to be sold. Even cars parked in the back lot can be bagged and bought by sims.
- You may want to check out the MTS TS2 Wiki for more ideas.
- And... I suggest invisifying the parking spaces with SophieDavid's Invisible Driveway
- Customer parking will be available (the front 3 spaces) if you have Mog's Decorative Parking Spaces mod.


No Custom Content Included

Lot Size: 50X40
Lot Price: $83,934 (withOUT cars! Make sure your sim has enough money to purchase cars to sell.)

Enjoy!

Standard mods I use that are not necessary, nor included - but were probably used whilst building/prepping this house for upload...
I use Deastrumquodvicis' Roof Shader for brighter roofs
And, HW/Honeywell's A Little Greyer: Roof Trim Defaults
Maranatah's White Wall Top texture replacement
Moo's Turn On/Off Lights
Menaceman's Lunatech Lighting Fix
Feenwald's Blocked Doors can Close (so doors close properly!)
BeosBoxBoy's no-red-pause-mod
Nopke's Go Under Spiral Stairs mod for proper spiral stair usage
Gunmod's Radience Lighting System, which includes the Scriptorium (which is necessary for installing CC stairs.)
Lamare's Shiftable Everything
And, of course, everyone needs Numenor's CEP and SEP!
