Acorn Meadows Update 2/3/2022- Simplicity also did an Acorn Meadows World Overview!
Although its smaller than my previous one, as far as the number of lots go, I sacrificed quantity for quality in my opinion. I think this in fact my first world that includes less than one hundred lo...
Generally, if you put spawners on seasonal lots, they won't only spawn in the season you wish them to. Also swings shouldn't be used on lots with seasonal markers, this leads to the "swing bug" where sims swing in plain air. It's an EA bug and sadly removing the swings again doesn't help, they will still do it. So it's an advice for future builds.
Strawberry Lemonade (45, Aurora Road, Villegas Household) - missing wallpapers, nothing else to report. The toddler was grown up when I switched to the household so I had to add a bed for the kid
Black Box Comics (56 Snowflake Street) - missing wallpapers, nothing else to report - in a nerd shop I'd love to see some arcade and/or video games and computers
Western Pastries & Zee Books (50 Snowflake Street) - missing wallpapers, nothing else to report
Theatre Park (54 Snowflake Street) - the usual missing wallpapers at the upper levels and in the "columns" - there is a single column, is there a particular reason for that? https://64.media.tumblr.com/ff3e13fb094f2f03d1f865d503f3e7b6/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-1b/s2048x3072/c70def8c4543d2d00a375a60f6123cbbe7d3be7d.jpg - you could also add a sand pit for toddlers, though it's not exactly a family park (especially not with red toadstool growing there :D )
A park for All Seasons (72 Evergreen Path) - work fine overall, only the plants looked a bit weird as if they were "stuck" in a different season? I saw they were meant for autumn so they should have been there as it was that season. They couldn't be interacted with https://64.media.tumblr.com/400ee70c306a50a2f5fb45bf705f3486/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-61/s2048x3072/2343a657af29b03116f885e550f1e432f6cbfca5.jpg
Seasonal Sports Bar - in a family-friendly bar I'd expect to see more stuff for families (i.e. kids) and in a Sports Bar more sports related decorations - the usual missing wallpapers at the upper level
Flower Power Dojo (55 Pumpkin Patch Road) - the usual missing wallpapers at the upper level
Grayland Snow (67 Evergreen Path) - Bookworm household - the missing wallpapers at the roof level - no trash can in the kitchen, sims have to go outside to dispose of their trash - sims don't start routing from the lot, they run to a spot a bit away and only then get into a taxi. Same on their way home, they would always get off quite away from the lot. Not sure why, maybe double check the routing? https://64.media.tumblr.com/e1c7e47e3be96b1ebb0ad45731b7cda6/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-b1/s2048x3072/6e316e874a950613be815b77bab634808d498a06.jpg https://64.media.tumblr.com/491d2d4afea13ab73c2dbd9aa6c0cb6d/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-b4/s2048x3072/b00072413800c09710a97b2a36f63c4b763db103.jpg
Acorn Meadows Public Library (70 Evergreen Path) - missing wallpapers at the roof level - there are no seating opportunities so that sims sit on the chairs and block the domino tables https://64.media.tumblr.com/3bae9400b24844f08abeedaba093685d/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-43/s2048x3072/5bc65f814e5a368b70df9c18d487a202e57ac7dc.jpg
The Blue Bar (74 Aurora Road) - what can I say, missing wallpapers on the upper level - this is a weird mix between Local Watering hole and I don't know what. Then I found that it's a Rebel Hangout. For this I would hope for more rebel stuff to do, e.g. a speaker podium, a dumpster, more places to actually hang out, i.e. sofas and such, also a bigger art area, not just one easel - there is still a reference to Pine Meadows in the description
My camera acted a bit weird at the river. When zoomed out it got stuck rather far apart from that port lot. Did you apply non-Camera paint there? My test sim could visit the port and then I was able to zoom in on the sim. So on Sims level I was able to move the camera to the lot, but not when a bit zoomed out. I hope that makes some sense :) This is how far I was able to go when zoomed out a bit: https://64.media.tumblr.com/1b8610a24a3792dc3454eaf198c844d3/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-e8/s2048x3072/d88426d60cca316c2f5a3062b2ff390d6f324d88.jpg
The bridge between Movie Theatre/Hospital is good on one side but the other it shows some noticeable step where it connects to the road again. All other bridges have those steps on both sides. https://64.media.tumblr.com/f2d96d09d7b4a7823aaebfc048690918/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-b1/s2048x3072/c6b3dfc069e85a902087bd10757a80de7b6efecd.jpg https://64.media.tumblr.com/ee30c0aa5f34af881027d98bccad9b53/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-b4/s2048x3072/6f1145dde15dc87cfa5b5613785bafe1d1a5691d.jpg https://64.media.tumblr.com/c902d041a05dae1b5396cccfe7e47188/25d7ba27a08fbc2e-db/s2048x3072/d4abfb32794cea3904252b86490d8853ff40ab40.jpg
