Dear Ed,
I cannot say enough to convey my immense happiness with Fort Sim. I have been playing it for several days now and I just had to come look up this thread and give it a huge KUDOS bump to the top of the list of CAW forum because this player created world is one of the BEST ever (right up there with Cornucopia and Neverglade for tops).
I highly recommend this world to anyone looking for a solid, well built, interesting world with plenty of variety in houses, lots and public venues to explore and live in with your favorite sims!
I have just added a building (for the PX - post exchange bookstore/consignment) to the one blank lot you left in the Fort Gnome military base. I copied your mess hall building and remodeled the inside for continuity of the military look. I love love love how you enclosed it in a wall and put small lots for barracks housing. I have made 4 sets of 8 single young adult sims (2 groups of males, 2 groups of females) for the four barracks, which are appropriately named Company A, B, C and D! They are all randomly rolled sims (for traits and looks) and its become a 'challenge' of sorts to see which groups will make it in their military careers and which sims will drop out and move on to other pursuits in the Fort Sim community. (some of them rolled couch potato, slob, loser etc, so I don't see them making it to astronauts or fighter pilots haha). I do use Awesomemod and its "Bless Household" function so I can control 4 separate households at once... but it works great for this military barracks challenge!
I am considering making a blog of it and if so, I will post a link to you so you can see your Military base and Fort Sim town in action!
I will keep an eye out for new lots you create. I am particulary interested in some residential houses for the other side of the river walk (across from the coffee house, club, etc). I am a fledgling builder and do not have your skills in building something on a hillside the way you did your commercial lots. Do you have plans to make some nice riverfront condos and houses?
Again, thank you SO much for all your hard work and creativity on this custom world. It's absolutely fabulous. I hope you'll get it uploaded to the Exchange soon so others can share in its awesomeness and it will be the top recommended world I'm sure!
Thank you, Envie42! :mrgreen: I do plan on making more houses on the residential side of the river. I need to finish a couple more community lots and then I will focus on the houses.
