Want a High desert

With the lack of snow sticking in Oasis Springs, I was curious to know how many people want a high desert world or turn Oasis Springs into high desert with the weather machine?
  • I'm quite happy with how it is at the moment. I don't oppose a new world, but another desert wold is not a prioroty for me. About making the snow stick while using weather machine, I'm not sure - depends on how much work it would take and would it make sense gamewise. Snow doesn't stick in Selvadorada either and to me that makes sense... so what is the exact reaosn it doesn't stick in Oasis Spring? If it's the temperature then I say no for that too.
  • I'd like another desert world with snow (and appropriate vegetation for a high desert - sagebrush and paintbrush flowers, not saguaro cacti). Oasis Springs has always been my favourite world, but with Seasons, I wanted snow, so my main save is in Newcrest.
  • I think I like Oasis Springs the way it is. The only thing I would change is to add in more spots to build
  • I'm not bothering with Seasons, so my OS is still as is. Would like more buildable spots though, and enough goodies and open flat land to make a fair replica of the Sonora where I spent part of my childhood.
  • Well, I haven't been playing The Sims, because I was playing in Oasis Springs, I was pretending it was a high desert, when they decided to make it a low dessert, my emersion was gone. I even adopted the house to match the desert surrounding, but because of them deciding the climate system in OS, my emersion was destroyed the house I moved to new crest, but it don't look the same in new crest as it did in OS Also turing Oasis Spring into a ghost town is a joke because you can't edit the terran. I am really not sure if I want to keep the current family anymore. I am really thinking about deleting my current saved game and start anew.


    Edit: hint: A mod to unlock the weather machine for snow to stick in OS would be good.
  • Neither.

    Although I do find myself wonder why there's no snow in Oasis Spring when it's modeled after Tucson and it does occasionally snow there. Although I guess "once in a great while" would be too hard to program.
  • I live in the high desert so I guess I'm a bit biased. I think we need a new high desert world.
  • Since I'm Currently in the market for just a desert actually, I would actually prefer
    Something with Mesa and a Mix of Egyptian - Arabian architecture would be nice.
  • I already love Oasis Springs as it is (with no snow), and I love having more worlds, so I voted for a separate high desert world. :smile:

    They need to add Joshua tree’s. I lived in a high desert growing up and it rarely rained or snowed. Heavy clouds rarely made it over the even higher mountains to the west, but the very rare times it did it was beautiful and exciting.
