Hello!!
I share this house here, it is the first one I put on the forum.

It is based on a house that comes in the game and that in Spanish is called "Villa Casoplón" (I don't know the name in English, sorry).

Basically what I did was to convert the garage into 3 rooms and expand a little other existing spaces. Upstairs, which is where the only two bedrooms that the house had before, I decided to keep one bedroom and a bathroom. The other I combined it with a part of what was the room to make an office.

I put more modern windows than the ones the house originally had, and also some stone on the facade because: a) it looks nice and b) it is a nod to the architecture of my land, which as a curious fact in my real life city there is a law that says that all facades must have 70% stone.

Soon I will start with the landscape. I plan to create garage, outside kitchen and pool

Brelor Castle in winter.

My sim is exploring an abandoned asylum which I built a long time ago. It is also a nightclub, and a tomb, and I had forgotten about most of the rooms and how to solve it!

Your recent posts make me want to play in Jericho again!

I can't even remember which lots have tombs in, I didn't write anything down! So I'm trying to find out how to get to one of the islands, without any luck...

I've never managed myself. A bit of the one in the ruins on that island I remember. There was one in the laundromat that I never figured out how to access at all. You hid them well!

Oh I found the one in the laundromat yesterday, I had forgotten about it! But there was a sign by the lift that said the Bank was on the top floor, but you couldn't get to it... I flushed a loo and then a switch appeared in the laundromat, then you could take the secret lift up to the bank. Lots of corridors, no doors, they were all hidden and you had to find out how to access them and obtain the keys for the vault. The vault was adjoining the basement laundry (handy for laundering money, hahahaha )



I remembered connecting toilets to switches,but beyond that I don't remember anything about making that one! Idid remember that there was a tomb somewhere though that used complicated logic gates to make things work, and I think I've found it... currently stuck! I'm in a huge room with switch plates and moveable statues, the door I came in has locked and the door I need to go through is locked.


It's timed, so the statues light up in sequence and once they are all lit, the traps are impassable and knock your sim out for a few hours.




I'm hoping that the trap still works properly and that I'm not wasting my time, I've found that a few things have changed with the game code which makes some bits different to how they worked when I made them. For example, it seems that now, sims can unlock doors, even locked tomb doors, in main worlds. So all of my traps can be cheated. Also, they changed the processor object that is used to program the logic gates in the tomb. If I try to edit any tombs in old worlds I made, the processor object is not accessible, although so far it all seems to work (with the exception of one bug I found in a tomb so far). But this room is the main one where I can remember having to figure out how to have many logic gates nested together, and also using the marching ant timer to count game clicks. So I'll persevere for a bit to see if I can figure out what I was thinking, and whether it actually works! Can't find out how to reset it, although there must have been a way. I even put a tent in there, anticipating that it would take a while to solve!

Talk about perfect timing. The rainbow appeared at just the right spot after a heavy downpour.

This is Polkreath Castle, one of the royal palaces in my imaginary kingdom of Nantrelor. I have just finished re-designing it. Originally it only had three floors but I added one, plus an attic, because I thought it needed to look a bit grander and more commodious. It will need to be.

Officially it is the winter palace of the sovereign (it can get pretty draughty up on Moon Hill!) but for my purposes it houses various other characters who will appear in the story, who I can fetch when I need them. These include the Right Reverend Matthew Pengareth, Arch Bishop of Trelorne (or 'Great Uncle Matt' as Lucy calls him). Also, the Right Honourable Sir James Truscott M.P. the Prime Minister. More may be added as we go on. You can think of the place as a sort of 'grace and favour' residence.

Tucked away behind it you can see part of Polkreath Royal Lists, where in medieval times jousting tournaments were held. These days it serves as barracks for the Royal Guards, when they are not on duty at Brelor Castle.
