I really like it! It reminds me of home, San Francisco, after some sort of catastrophe. I'm looking forward to following your progress with this. Just wait 'til my graffiti artist hits those walls!

Hey, just wanted to warn you, as I was looking at your pictures and those lots with just a single wide space sidewalk in front of them are going to give you a major headache as the game no longer tolerates a single space sidewalk and will freeze up on you - never mind the number of sims who will get stuck there - I don't even want to mention the nightmare simmers will encounter with that trash can on the corner or what happens when sims have pets installed - this world is going to have serious lag as horses need three spaces wide to turn around, deer need two as do all sims, if there are doors especially like on your building seems are going to toss route fail without three spaces wide where the doors are. Anyway, just though I should let you know.But I believe it was after late night came out it became problematic to just have a single space walk area and once pets came out it became mandatory to have two or more spaces wide for areas with out doors and with doors you have to have the space the doors require plus sims space. I would take it you need to use moveobjects on to even place those door, and using MOO now a day in anything a sims can use as well as for windows and doorways is the basis for a world that is going to freeze badly. MOO is no longer recommended in building in sims 3 as sims do not see the space you have created they only see the space the game itself with out moo requires.Granted most areas look good, but at least those two buildings in the closeup pic, are going to need more space around them or they will be pure trouble.

It is the ones on the two buildings on picture 6. Hope that helps - as I know door usually won't go in where there is just one space before the road - so the only way I have seen anyone force them to do that was with Moo - that is why I just assumed that. As the game has a problem even though it allows walls one space away for the sides of a lot, it even balks over roofs and everything else and even if you manage to get a roof besides the flat one to work, when installed in game, there are sometimes strange build tile floating about when you look up from the ground at angles. I generally saw this a lot when building some tiny lots for one of Rflongs Tiny town worlds.Anyway, just figured I'd mention it and you could check it when you are testing.

Well, if you wanted it to look like a Slum, it most certainly does, except some of the buildings, in particular the rabbit holes, look a bit too fancy, not to mention clean.

You are correct. I noticed that when I started taking screenshots. Some of the buildings are a bit nice because I got lazy. :P Was reusing the ones that came with Showtime. Thinking about remaking a few of them.

Cllevett,

If only EA had given us some broken and boarded up windows as I had hoped they would have with Supernatural. That would definitely help.

That would be useful!!! I really wanted boarded windows for my house on the corner. I did manage to make windows with bars of sorts. Looks pretty good for shops especially.

It looks great, and I love the name. :D The black road doesn't seem to fit the theme to me though, it reminds me of marble.

Its so shanty! Good for post apocalyptic challenge. Rattle snake ridge had been crashing to me, so this could be a good place for exodus.

I had that in mind too. :) The bridge that exits the island is blocked off by a fence. No escaping!!!
