Builders Needed to Help with the next Forum Dynasty
« on: September 04, 2015, 05:57:27 PM »
The Challenge Team is looking for houses for the upcoming Dynasty.

The team requests you follow a few simple rules:

• No CC
• No career or party rewards
• Base game objects or replaceable with base game (i.e., a couch from Perfect Patio SP would be okay but not a hot tub)
• No MOO (sometimes causes problems in a download).

We're looking mainly for starter houses (<$20,000), but other sizes are acceptable. If you want to design something for an alien, that would be great.

When you upload your creation, give it the address #carlsguiderdc.

Thanks, everyone! — Metro, Nutella, ratchie, MarianT, Trip, and LenaLJ.

Are the houses allowed to have skilling items such as computers, easels, chess tables etc?

Sure. Just keep in mind that the sim getting the house may have only $20,000. Once we post the rules, you'll probably have a better idea of what to build, but we wanted to have some houses on hand when people started the challenge.

Just wanted to say that the 21 houses up on the Gallery look really nice. I can't wait to start using some of them!

Would a little bit of garden MOO be acceptable? What kinds of problems can it cause?

What about the use of the re-sizing cheat ? Does that cause problems like MOO does or can we use that cheat ?

Looking forward to that, Twinmum!

@_Annika_  and @Ferretmania , I just downloaded a house with some over-sized objects and MOO done on the gardens, and haven't had any problems, so I guess that would be okay. Keep in mind though, that the sims will only have $20,000 initially to spend on a house and lot.

Thanks @MarianT  , I've already uploaded some, without the cheats, but good to know they can be used if needed.

In all my years playing Sims I've never done much building, didn't really appeal to me..until now. I'm not that good at it, but that will hopefully change.

Another question though. When we showcase them here on the Forum. Which lot value do we use ?

I noticed that the lot value is higher in build mode when looking at the info panel , than it is when looking at the lot in the gallery.

Good question, Ferretmania. The lot value in build mode probably also contains the value of the lot. Since people might download them to a different size lot, I'd go with the value shown in the Gallery.

I've been away from the game for a bit, so it has been fun getting back to building. three starter houses and so far, I haven't gone over budget, although I may have to revisit one and decorate it the way I had envisioned it.

Wish I had seen this earlier.  Is it too late to build for this?

@Joria, it's never too late. We haven't posted the rules yet (don't know if I can reveal the date, so I'll just say it's coming soon). And I, for one, would be delighted to have a couple of your houses to choose from. As I recall from Union Cove, they were quite nice.

Are you missing any particular lot sizes in those that are available?
