Large one story homes
I'm going to have to rebuild my generation home soon. I'm horrible at it. I usually design my homes based off of things I've seen here in the forums. There are so many wonderful designers here. Al...

I think the vertical light blue is probably done similarly - maybe with a plain wall (as in no sections, borders, molding) recolored to a vertical wood pattern from the woods section in CASt. If you're trying to save money, you can use the pool wall tile in tile wall covers and just color the border at the top the same as the bottom with a vertical wood pattern. Actually, you can make that wall into all sorts of things.
As for attached garages in houses with foundations in Sims 3, that's not all that easy, I don't think. You need to use CFE (constrain floor elevation), and I have never used it - it scares me. LOL There are a lot of tutorials and videos out there on how to use it if you want to google it to get an idea.
Now you guys are going to find out what a scardy cat noob I am (even though I have played TS1-4): I've never used CASt. So I guess my choices are to chose something else or figure out how to recolor in CASt! I'm sure there are plenty of tutorials on that as well. In the meantime, I think I got the bottom floor done yesterday but the stairs to the basement gave me a problem. Read Carls's guide AFTER I had already built the bottom floor which I learned is the opposite I should have done. Put in a spiral stair to the basement to keep my sanity. Now it's time to get started on the upper floors! I'm a weekend gamer (mixed in with laundry and lots of other stuff) so my time is limited. I've been two full weekends now building this thing and all I have to show for it is one level with no paint, carpets or furniture. *laughs* Ah well. Having fun!
EDIT: I may NEVER get my house built after learning about CAS. I've spent 30 minutes trying to get the color right on ONE panel.This is WAY entertaining!
