Default The Haunted Mansion - a Magic Town house
Hi! Today I’d like to share with you my house that I built in The Sims 1. All the Maxis houses in Magic Town turned out to be too small for me, so I decided to build my own large mansion to accommodate my Sim family and provide plenty of space for playing with magic. There are 4 bedrooms and a total of 8 Sims can live here. Since MTS doesn't have a section for TS1, I uploaded this house on simblr.cc.

The tombstones in the garden are purely decorative, no Sim died there (yet). But, of course, you can easily change that...









Daffodils behind the house serve as food for dragons.




















An additional room in the garden is used to store charms.








This weird green room is where I keep my magic crystals, protected by dragons around

I downloaded this from you and installed it but it says its missing files. Only thing that was in the rar was the house file and no other files.

No additional files should be needed; I didn't use any CC. Do you have all the EPs? Have any objects actually disappeared from the lot, compared to the screenshots?

You installed this house on a lot other than lot 91 in Magic Town, maybe that's the reason?

Based on how I understand the missing objects dialog (that it only pops up if an object it uses didn't load up with the game) I don't think installing it to the wrong kind of lot would cause that (if that matters to the objects I *think* the objects would just self-delete on running their init BHAV (i.e. running a check for lot type and removing themselves if on wrong lot type), rather than the missing objects dialog showing).

...On the other hand, I'm sorely tempted to play around and see if I can't get it to trigger the dialog myself... šŸ¤”

No I dont have it installed on Magic Town, I have it on regular. I didnt think it needed to be in Magic Town. LoL Oh well no biggie to be honest. I was just letting you know that it said missing objects.

I have been playing around with the house you made to make it how I like to have it in Magictown. Just wanted to share the whole view. I havent done much to the upstairs but I will in time take pics of each room on what I have done to it

I just had no other idea why this would happen, and I'm not very familiar with the process of installing lots in The Sims 1.

For the test, I removed all my mods and installed the house on lot 4, I had no dialog, and all objects remained intact. So I really don't know why this is happening in your case, unless you are missing some game files.

It looks awesome <3 I like the darker and creepier approach to interiors, that was my original idea, but unfortunately I was limited by the game because I don't use CC. I'd love to see more pics!

Best I can to screen shot the house. I forgot to bring up the walls so you can see them. I am still working on the house. I am still trying to keep it dark theme for Jack and Sally. But I dont have many black items to add, having a hard time finding what I want lol Hard to find Halloween theme stuff for it. Plus I know no one is making items for Sims 1 but I dont play any of the others ones. Sims 1 has been the only one I have played besides The free play on the iPad, I do enjoy that one plus I have and paid for a "hacked" version of it I guess you can say lol

I love it! Especially the head on a spike in the graveyard, so creepy xD The bright pink bedroom contrasts nicely with the rest of the house.
Your home renovation looks perfect for Jack and Sally, I love the Halloween vibe (and I'm a huge fan of Tim Burton šŸ–¤).

I am a huge Tim Burton fan as well. My whole apt is done in Jack and Sally. Is why I was looking for a haunted house but more black or dark scene. I love how you made the house. Is why I used it and made it into a darker scene for them
