You would be surprised how many people actually love other peoples playing styles. i think it expands the Sims experience to try some thing different every now and then - but as far as this lot - it is adorable and perfect for my own style of playing. I find the EA Casino just so big. It works well in LP but is very limited in other worlds - but yours could be adapted real nicely to just about any world - so I am super glad you shared it. Blessings to you.
Thank you very much for the super kind words. It means alot. You really think it could be placed in other worlds? I'm not so sure. I built it specifically for 18 Veronaville #C (I didn't even like how it plays in lot #E). Maybe if you removed the exterior border fortification walls I guess, but then I think it would play awkwardly.
I designed and layed out the house in the middle specifically taking into consideration that the walls were there. That's why the kitchen/living room turned restaurant/sitting room is upstairs as to have a view over the walls. Plus, since casinos don't generally have windows (right?) it made the idea of having the casino room downstairs fit perfect. Yes, I know I totally put too much thought into it. But that's how I make my lots and why I feel others wouldn't be interested.
Again thanks. My next lot for Monte Vista is going to be a supernatural cosignment store. I love playing with the elixirs. I'm thinking of building it across from the market or on the other side of the house next door to the market. If I decide to upload it, that probably won't be until next weekend, but no promises.
I'll be eagerly awaiting -- I've been looking at buildings in Champs les Sims to see if any of them could be adapted for a consignment store (I really love the one in Twinbrook; it has two empty floors on top of the first floor so I made one a Pet Shop with the Pet Store Register and one an Elixir Shop with the Elixir Store Register, and renamed it The Emporium). I stuck the standard one in town just to have one in there, but it really doesn't fit the theme. (I also put in the standard fire station and salon, but they don't look right either.) I did bring over a couple of houses and did some modifications -- the Lavender house which is on the lot next to the fishing center, and the Jonquil House which is on a 40x40 lot. Neither one of them had a garage (since no one owns cars in Champs les Sims) so I added a 1-car garage to the Lavender House, and the Jonquil House had a building that easily converted to garage, with enough room to add a basement with spiral stairs for a nectary (my Sims there are going to be nectar specialists along with their other jobs).
