Grid-Adjuster Tutorial: How to Attach a Garage to a Lowered Foundation
YOU WILL NEED
Mootilda's
Grid-Adjuster Tool 
...obviously!
Simler90's
Stair Mods to allow large dogs access to a 2-Click/2-Step Foundation House.

AND I SUGGEST READING
Moo's own
G-A Tutorial
My other
Grid-Adjuster Tutorials...
_________________________________________________________
This tutorial assumes you are already familiar with TS2 building techniques and the Grid-Adjuster (
somewhat familiar, anyway!)
Instructions:
The house built for this tutorial has specifically a 2-click/2-step foundation. BUT, the same technique can be used for regular 4-click foundations, or any height you need. Just modify the Grid-Adjuster settings accordingly.
You could've also used the foundation tool to create the foundation level.
In fact, if you are doing a 1-click/1-step foundation, I recommend using the foundation tool - because you must use HL's
SimplePassageModularStairs, to allow sims access to the 1-click/1-step foundation,
and they must be added while the house has a 4-Click foundation.
No need to "count out" the areas of the house - unless you are making a no-slope basement (
which is not what the tutorial is about!)
(
Just leave the red-lined items alone. Don't change them at all!)
Don't worry about turning the cheats off. They will reset when you exit and restart the game.
The G-A setting for a regular 4-click foundation is: Elevation = 20 ...(
16 + 4)
- Numenor's
Unlevel Wall - #90.
If you have any Grid-Adjuster questions, please post below or shoot me a PM. I haven't learned everything there is to know about it yet, but I'm gaining lots of experience! And, I'll help if I can!
This house is uploaded here:
Modest 4B Ranch - in case someone wants to reverse-engineer it to see what I did.
Good luck!
