(Maybe) useful list about venues
« on: October 01, 2010, 05:15:34 AM »
This list provides information about, like, requirement for venues to level up. I actually made this for my own information, but oh well, I just love to share?
Actually, I did this twice, a blackout ruins my first list, and the blackout lasted for awesome 20 hours. So I hope this might be useful.

By chance is this list for Sunset Valley? Or where is it from?  I don't seem to recall seeing a Chinese garden anywhere.  Thank you very much for this list.  It is very informative.

You can own a couple venues with World Adventures, wildred. I am planning to make updates early next week, so I will be including this info. Several people have submitted me lists and I want to get them all in, but will do it all in one session.

You were the first to submit a list of this kind. I'm linking to this topic for people who don't play in Sunset Valley. I have all the totals for income so people will know what they're getting into before buying them, but for other towns they may like to see this.  :)

I just want to know how to purchase the properties if you have World Adventures.  I have not found any information on the official forum or elsewhere.  I have tried many times to figure it out on my own and have had no success. 
My Sim was a level 3 for all countries and had lots of money.  No options have come up on their computer or phone either at home or in one of the countries. 
Carl, I am really looking forward to your updates to see how this can be accomplished.  :)

Are you talking about the various park type locations?  The campgrounds and such?

I am talking about buying the Nectary, the Dojo and the Chinese Garden.  I have been searching and asking around since Ambitions was released.  So far I have not found out how to purchase these three properties.

After trying for some time to purchase the Nectary, I'm confident you can't. The Prima Guide insists they can be purchased, but this was either:

A. Pulled from the game before release
or
B. Bugged and not allowing the real estate interface to be accessed during travel.

As such I've taken mention of it out of the guide. Sorry for adding to the confusion!

Carl, what about the Dojo and the Chinese Garden?  Have you ever been able to purchase those two properties?

It seems to affect all travel unfortunately. I really think the feature was pulled after the Prima guide author wrote that. I did my own data gathering for the real estate page, but thought it'd be worth mentioning that they're purchasable because of the written guide saying so. I should have fact-checked that part.

I pulled about Junk yards too, as Oatbear couldn't manage to purchase one.

Thanks for checking this out Carl.  I will now give up searching for a way to purchase these properties. 
My one very rich Simmie owns several homes as well as a few empty lots in each vacation spot (I thought owning everything might trigger something).  I can now have him sell most of these lots. 
If I should come across anything I will let you know.   :)

This was "fixed" in a patch.  Originally, junkyards were able to be purchased.

Thanks Jonna. Did not notice that in the notes. So the only thing missing for SSV players as far as investments go is a laundromat. Hey maybe they'll add the missing shops to the various towns with the Late Night patch. I'm not holding my breath though.
