WIP (Pottersville) - New Update (8/3/23)

I honestly cannot even phathom the amount of work that has gone into this world - mind blown! That picture of the lit up bridge is everything!

@LouisaSM Thanks, and yes, it took a lot of work...I think this might be my last world for awhile. I'm completely wiped!

After a few false starts, I'm now getting further into world building. I have a world mostly laid out with roads, lots, and the majority of plants. I've tested a little bit along the way, but do you have any tips for playtesting? Maybe a checklist you always do or things that a beginner might not think to check?

Also, I still don't have a few expansions (namely, pets) that I think might change how the world is played or cause problems I can't account for with my playtesting. How could I protect for that? Or should I just accept that this world is just not made to be overrun with horses? =P

@DottyKC If you have any CAW questions, I'd be more than happy to help you if you started new thread. This thread is so I can keep people posted on a world I am building. What will happen is that if I answered your questions here, it'll make people following this thread become confused and think I've posted an update when I haven't. In any event, here is a tutorial that might help you out with your first question: http://www.thesimsdepot.com/sims-3/sims-3-help-center/create-a-world-master-class/create-a-world-tips-and-tricks-the-best-way-to-play-test-your-world/

If you can't start a new thread just yet because of the post limit, just respond to a few other comments to boost your thread count. After that, you can start as many threads as you need. :)

The world looks amazing!

@Somosvarios Thank you very much.

Okay, everyone...I know it's been awhile, but believe it or not, I'm back.

Unfortunately, this WIP was completely derailed by both technical difficulties and real life stuff. Things became so bad that I came close to deleting everything the world and never looking back. However, a little part of my brain just kept telling me to not give up on the world and now I can safely say that it's finally back on track.
