Problems installing Goth Mansion
Hi there ! I would just like to know if someone is having trouble installing my Goth Mansion ? Please answer if you are in that situation ! =S
**Update**
I reported the house so the TSR staff can take a look at it, and it seems that there is no problem with the house... So I am very sorry for the people who can't install it =S
LOT PLACEMENT for Beachfront Rise Reimagined + UPCOMING REQUEST LOT SNEAK PEEK!
First of all, I am glad to see that many of you like the Beachfront Rise Reimagined lot! It makes me so happy and makes all the time spent on building it worth it!
Now some of you have been asking where to place it. It should only be placed at 64 OCEANVIEW in STARLIGHT SHORES, which came with the SHOWTIME EXPANSION PACK. I also wrote this down in the NOTES section of the download page, so please take the time to read the NOTES section before asking where to place it, as I wrote it there for that exact reason. I don't have the time to always go through the comments, so I wrote it there for those who don't know where to place it.
Here is a checklist for those having issues with lots:
- Make sure your game is UPDATED TO THE LATEST PATCH. This can be done through the game launcher.
- TRY RE-DOWNLOADING THE LOT.
- Beachfront Rise Reimagined and The Jala are both HUGE lots, so placing them in the neighborhood WILL TAKE A LONG TIME, EVEN IN FAST COMPUTERS/LAPTOPS. It is not unusual for it to spend around 30 MINUTES to 1 HOUR for it to be placed successfully, so patience is a virtue in this situation.
- To maximize gameplay speeds/rendering times, put your game settings at the minimum, or somewhere near the minimum. But if your computer can handle it, why not use the high settings?
NOW FOR THE LATEST LOT I AM WORKING ON!
As requested by TSR member erjes12, here is... THE ERJES (still FAR from done)

My lots
As much as i would love to make houses full of elevation cheats etc.. they are horrible for game play. I try to keep mine easy to play because really thats what its all about right? lol.. playing the game. And the last thing someone wants is a home full of toddlers with ten different levels where they have to constantly rotate the camera to find everything .
So i dont think my future in creating lots for Sims 2 or even Sims3 will include crazy lots that are difficult to play!. I would love to make complex houses but again it is about game play and i keep the user in mind. If i am annoyed at a house a family is in .. then so will others be.

My Daughter - Creator PRINCESS MOO MOO
Me again.. I have been trying to convince my youngest daughter Mia to create again. When she was 10 and 11 she created for Sims2 .. her minisite is here.. http://www.thesimsresource.com/members/princess_moomoo
Pretty good for a 10 yr old I would say. Now she is 14 and in 9th grade and playings Sims2 and 3 and she said to me last night.."Mom would you show me how to recolor again? I have forgotten" I said SURE WILL.
I think she would be absolutely fantastic NOW.. as a teen. She will be 15 in a few short months. So check out her stuff and I will keep you all posted if she creates and uploads! I think she would do well at clothing and hair.. that is her fave stuff to download .
Fixed Screenshots
So I have been tinkering with my screenshots.. and have now opted to capture pics via Prnt Screen then take pics and then crop and set to 4:3 ratio . No other editing. My latest house waiting for approval MFG NL STARTER #10 shows this new screenshot. Hopefully it is better and clearerl
Of course potential downloaders of my homes.. please remember that despite the less than super clear screenshots the houses do look terrific IN GAME.
UGH.
Also I have noticed that pics i am taking of re-colors are not even ending up in my Storytelling Folder. WTH? so many obstacles! egads! LOL
Ihave given myself a flipping headache LOL. I think the best idea for me is to stop uploading until I totally sort this garbage out with my screenshots. BECAUSE after I have totally got it down I must contact staff to see if I can Re Submit better screenshots of my newest Nightlife houses. Like I wrote in another blog post.. I am really picky and it drives me WONKY that my pics look fuzzy and distorted. It really takes away from the hard work i have put into creating the house :(
Anyways enough of the whining from me LOL.
Happy Simming!
The A-Lister Series: BEACHFRONT RISE REIMAGINED is finally DONE!
After a month of building this huge (although not as huge as The Jala) beach house, it is finally DONE! Here is a preview of what you can expect!

AAAAAND! It is SEASONS READY! Relax by the beach during the summer, and imagine the wonderful trees turn into autumn colors!
I'm just finalizing the front portion of the home and then do some more routing tests, and then IT IS FINISHED!
