Barnacle Bay Creation Sharing Thread

Disclaimer: Barnacle Bay is not required! I have uploaded lots and households on post #2 and you can utilize those to renovate/remake! Plus if you want to get Barnacle Bay, I'd recommend seeing if it's on sale in your area on Amazon

Hello there simmers,

In the past 2 years since Barnacle Bay has been released, we have been given new worlds far better than Barnacle Bay. Barnacle Bay is now losing its residents as they moved and traveled to Hidden Springs and also flew with the crew to Lunar Lakes. Barnacle Bay wants to grab more attention for tourists and wants to become a new attraction as a world itself and it needs YOUR help.

This thread will gather and obtain all player creations to help renovate Barnacle Bay with anything released from the Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs, and the Sims 3 Store. So many ideas can be created from below:

- Help create new homes or redecorate outdated ones to help Barnacle Bay increase its revenue.
- Create new neighbors, and pets if you would like to make the world welcoming.
- Create new venues and attractions to make this island a true tropical resort.
- Create new stories and background for your choice of remakes/creations/etc.

What is allowed:
- Expansion Pack Content
- Stuff Pack Content
- Store Content
- Custom Content <---- Please state if your lot has CC or not

What is preferred:
- Download Links from the Sims 3 Exchange, but if you use mediafire or another source, please take note of the risks and it's strongly recommended for anyone to download off the exchange more than 3rd party sites.

- Please keep use of images and pictures to a maximum of 5 pictures per creation. Any more would strongly recommend using a slideshow.

I will be uploading many lots of Barnacle Bay for you guys to use, should the occasion rise that you do not own Barnacle Bay. That way anyone can participate ^_^

I hope this thread will be successful much like my Lunar Lakes thread and I hope you all get your creative juices flowing!

- AznSensei

No self respecting pirate island should be without an old pirate castle. This one has been renovated and updated by the nouveaux riche who have recently flocked to Barnacle Bay. Sorry, no ghosts of old dead pirates, because no pirates died in the castle. You'll have to supply your own.

This home was designed for a large family, of all ages. It is dog and cat ready, as well. EA Store CC. No other CC. No spawners. Please DO NOT remove the blue globe fog emitters. They make the waterfalls work.

Not shown in the pics is the two basement wine cellars. One has stairs going down from inside the house and the other has stairs going down from inside the garden shed.

The lot is 60 x 60 and fits beautifully on the empty lot of that size on the back of the island, 432 Tidal Terrace. About 251,000 simoleans, so you might want to use the freerealestate cheat to get your sim family in the house.

This is a very unusual lot, and pics cannot do it justice, especially since I am limited to only five pics. ;)

Please note: Before I uploaded this lot, I mistakenly uploaded the wrong version, with the wrong driveway terrain. Three eager beavers got it downloaded before I deleted and uploaded the correct version. If you downloaded the lot before you read this, please redownload. So sorry about that!

Are you going to 'assign' names to the lots people are building or renovating for your project so you don't end up with 5 fire stations and no junkyard?

I would like to do both the firehouse and junkyard and renovate one house (your pick)

If they are creating new firestations, etc. then I can just label it as "(insert username) firestation"

It's mostly a sharing thread so multiple remakes can happen, or multiple creations of the same thing can happen too. ^_^

You can choose what to renovate if you wish. I know I'm doing my own renovations too so I'll be adding some creations myself whenever I get the chance

AznSensei, please change the link on the first page for my Castlereigh on Barnacle Bay to this:

http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=5870207

I had to re-upload, yet again. On the previous one, a pattern tagged along. Sigh. I think I need to turn in my creator license, because I forgot to double check in Sims3Pack Cleaner, and only caught this mistake by fortunate "accident." :oops:

If you are one of the 14 people who downloaded, trusting that my lot was CC free (hides face), then you might want to delete a green "pattern" that looks like a simple recolor of a sweatshirt texture, which is what I thought it was. It was used on the crib canopy. Maybe on the teddy bears in that room, too. Anyway, go ahead and delete it.

Some lovely creations so far. I'm hoping someone will do a consignment store...

Here's a small, simple poolside club I did (needs LN), called Mermaid Lagoon:

This is quite a big house for me to do, and it's still not done, but I took some pictures for you to see. :D

Looking good so far!

I've got another one lol... I edited EA's Founder's Park and added toilets, play equipment and a stage for Showtime performances:

I just wanted to put this in for the OP, maybe you could note it for people on your first page where you list all the lots? Or remind them to check amjoie's thread before they go bulldozing/editing... People should be careful about these lots, as they have ghosts:

0 Wanderers Way (Pirate’s Hideaway)
7 Porthilly View (Library)
1400 New Barnacle Blvd (Crowes Nest Campground)
438 Tidal Terrace (Goldbeard home)
428 Tidal Terrace (Maritime Shanty empty home)

If anyone hasn't already seen it, refer to amjoie's thread here for details: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/536956.page

We don't want to mess up anyone's game!

Thank you! Good changes you've done there, I'll have to put that in my game! :D

Made a lot of progress! At the moment laying out floorplan, it's very difficult - I want to keep it as open as possible.

Cool thread AznSensei, you've made me want to play BB now :D

elanorbreton, how would I make working stages in another world. Could you tell me how that is achieved as your park pic clearly proves it is possible? I added an additional Coffee House to SS itself From the lot bin) and my sims wouldn't even use that so I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

Any help appreciated :)
