Great Bear. Updated for Showtime. Link on First page.



It`s taken eight months, so, here is Great Bear.
You may need to refresh the page for all the pics to show.

World Adventures/Ambitions/Late Night/Generations/Pets required.
I used the gas pumps from the Fast Lane Stuff Pack. No other Stuff Pack items were used. The only store content present in Great Bear is the Three Lakes Set (I used items from that set on only these three lots, Big Dan`s Cabin/Grizzly Joe`s and Pine Crest Lake).
I used some items from the Ford Prius set and a few items from other various free store sets. Check out Walden`s guide to free store sets over at the General Discussion forum.

There are three versions of Great Bear available. One contains a campsite lot designated as a Hangout, another has the campsite designated as Base Camp (for those using the Traveler mod), the latest is a Showtime updated version with Showtime venues added.

Information:
Large World (No non EA CC, was used).
Unpopulated.
118 lots
50 Community Lots (6 Empty Lots for further expansion)
All rabbithole lots are present.
There is no nectary in Great Bear (wine can be purchased at the Consignment Store).

68 Residential Lots (includes 33 Pre-built Lots/35 Empty Lots)
Most lot sizes are included (from 20x20 to 64x64). Most lot sizes are World Editor compatible. There are 3 64x64 lots and a 60x60 (all are legacy priced).
All but one lot contains at least one crib (the lot that does not contain a crib mentions so in it`s description).
There are no apartment buildings in Great Bear.

Base game spawners are present in Great Bear.
The river that runs through Great Bear is designated as freshwater. Your sims will be able to fish for freshwater fish along it`s banks. There are no saltwater/ocean fish spawners in Great Bear.

When you start playing Great Bear, may I suggest you Save early on, then go to Main Menu, then re-enter your game. This allows the fog emitters to act as designated.
There are many trees in Great Bear (not as many as I wanted to use), so this may or may not be a factor to be considered if you chose to download.

A brief description of Great Bear:
Great Bear (altitude 4,012 feet/1,223 metres) was established in 1880 on the banks of the Lazy Elk River, near the US/Canadian border. Over the years, it`s location made it a popular town for hikers and walkers keen to explore it`s surrounding mountains and forested wilderness. The Buck Falls area was designated a National Forest Park in 1974 and remains a popular recreation area with locals and tourists alike.

The rest is up to you...

A special round of applause for these wonderful, helpful people:
