I have greatly enjoyed the "show me your Oasis Springs" thread and get so much inspiration from seeing all your versions of the worlds. So I figure it's time for another:

All lots are residential and most resemble what they originally were. I've built the traveller's camp and downloaded the yellow starter house.https://i.imgur.com/hhuvq7p.png
I wanted a japanese district before we got Mt.Komorebi. These houses didn't really fit there so I left them here. There's a restaurant and a maker space plus three residential lots. I've built the restaurant and smallest residential, downloaded the rest.https://i.imgur.com/pmjS2Ee.png
Goth manor is repurposed as a spa. Umbrage manor is in its original state. I've built the bigger victorian and downloaded the smaller one.https://i.imgur.com/NuoumKU.png
Downloaded everything here: cafe, gym, lounge and arts center.https://i.imgur.com/AGe1zrf.png I have edited the original park into a karaoke park, though current main purpose is park again. They should have held the Sims Sessions at this stage :D https://i.imgur.com/3RFvjGO.png
This is beautiful, you've done a really good job. :) I do wonder how people manage to get their worlds looking like this though!
With the help of the gallery and careful planning :smiley: also map replacement by 20th Century Plumbob :wink: But thank you!
You're welcome. :) It almost looks like a completely different world. I'll definitely be checking out the map replacements as this makes my Willow Creek look incredibly boring.
Changed the exterior a little because the wall of windows was bothering me so I decided it used to be garage too until cars were no longer a thing so they converted it into a study
I also added some interior *applause simmingal finally stops just building exteriors :lol:* but its still probably gonna change once I play the family and kids have actual personalities etc... I mean they still haven't even been born :lol:
also realized i totally forgot ceiling lights so yes, those still need to be added
Also updated world screen after all this building :lol: think I'll need to go to play with other things for a bit now yeah... long long way to go... but foundry had been empty for ages so good to have it ready for new families to come https://i.imgur.com/8b2mwuF.png
@DaniRose2143 that is an older build of mine called Creekside Arts & Sciences. It has a wedding venue and all kinds of trade skill items for sims to build up their own skills and of course various pieces of art.
I've been trying to build or find lots from the gallery that match the neighborhood areas as I work on my own default save file.

That's awesome. Even better they are your own. Did you ever upload them to the gallery?
@DaniRose2143 yes, takes me forever to build though. I don't know all the tricks of it and don't get to play as often as I would like, but I do ok. Most of my builds are simple but I do like to decorate them for family play. You can find it here...
I know exactly what you mean about taking forever to do a build. That redo of Garden Essence aside, it usually takes me up to a week just to redecorate a house let alone build it.? Trying to make a build too complicated or busy is an easy trap to fall into. A lot of the lots I download that get tossed out are for that reason. I do it myself, trying squeeze in one more decor item, or another chair, or something.

I need to find time to thoroughly play test it and then I will put it up on the gallery. I did a few quick tests as I went but not a really thorough test. And I need to scan it and make sure there is no other cc besides Peacemaker's siding.
How are you doing with your build? Have you put it up on the gallery yet?
@JAL Thank you for the reminder. I'm headed off to bed shortly but when I get up in the morning I will do some play testing and then post it. I have been meaning to test it and forgot. Thank you.
