Apartment Mailboxes
When you are finished building your apartment lot and are ready to change from Residential to Apartment, here is what you do:1. Open the cheat box window (CTRL + Shift then C)
2. Type changeLotZoning apartmentbase
3. Save and Exit the lot into the neighborhood. You will see the apartment icon over your lot now!
4. Re-enter the lot and you will see the apartment mailbox in place of the standard house mailbox.
A few people have contacted me about Apartment Mailboxes not showing up in their game after doing the steps listed above. If this is happening to you, don't panic! You might be one of those who has downloaded recolors of maxis mailboxes in your game! I know I ended up with some and have no idea whose lot they came with. But, here is how you can get rid of them:
1. Go into your Sims2Pack Clean Installer, if you don't already have it, you can download it at http://sims2pack.modthesims2.com/
2. Choose directory as downloads and then it may take a long time for all of your downloads to appear, depending on the size of your download file. Good time to go make a cup of coffee or dinner, in some peoples case!
3. Alphabetize your downloads by clicking the name bar.. that won't take as long at all.
4. Scroll down and delete ALL mailboxes you find.
Don't worry, when you reload your game and go into houses, the mailboxes will be replaced with maxis mailboxes!
Dado Room Update
I'm turning into a blogging fool. But maybe it will make me finish this room sooner rather than later, lol. Getting closer though...
Done: desk, chair, bookcase, shelf, pole/column for shelf, 2 CD clutter, wall art, lighting
Still to do: 1 more clutter object, plant of some sort
Possible other items time allowing: side table maybe, recolor of computer maybe, radio maybe (if I can figure out how to make it placeable on the shelving), printer/scanner deco maybe, curtains maybe (if I can figure out if they can be made height adjustable like shelving/wall art that would be awesome!)
And, yeah. That's gonna keep me busy, lol
On a short vacation...
I'm on vacation this week and part of next, but I do have some lots in the works. :)Lots Unlocked!
It had been brought to my attention that the majority of my lots had been locked and unavailable for download. I'm happy to report that this matter has been taken care of and all of my lots are now available to be downloaded by everyone. Woohoo!!Enjoy!
New Poll added to site.
I have added a new poll to my site to get some views on what you would like me to create. I have so many templates of clothing I don't know where to start. Any ideas on what I should do would be appreciated. I don't want to get back into that lull of only playing the game and not creating. I was thinking about making a set of these style clothes but I cannot remember where I got the mesh from. Does anyone know?
Thankies!
Bohemian Tops
This is a set of eight re-colours of the new tops from my Bohemian Collection that I made to go with the adult versions of the Bohemian Teen skirts. There are three new colours of the 3/4 sleeve top, three new colours of the appliqu�d halter top and one new version each of the cheesecloth shirt and the cream halter top. Here are three of them:
All the tops use standard Maxis meshes and are available for adults and young adults.
YES!
I am sure all six of you that downloaded the original rug have been holding your breath for this update. :D Anyway, the very long awaited set of the matching walls and floors to the original blanket floor have been uploaded to TSR. Not sure when they will be approved - or not... Anyhow, its a done deal!K's
My friend & roomie KarenKarie came up with a challenge for everyone ELSE to try. So since I'm not the only one in our little circle trying it I thought I'd post MY progress.I started the Sim in question as a toddler. Since she wanted the Sim to get ALL the badges including the sales and stocking etc. I'll have him run "Ethan Allen's" I named him Ethan Allen just for that reason. :D
