Full YouTube Video Playlist (all 4 videos) RECOMMENDED SORT FOR VIEWING REPLIES: NewestAge of Aquarius - Entry for MsRedNotDead contest on the future
This is my entry for MsRed’s contest about the future. This song spoke to me since my hope for the future is for all nations to live in harmony and understanding. Where all life is respected, there are no prejudices, and love, compassion and generosity conquer all despair. The Age of Aquarius is thought by some to be the upcoming astrological age of mental enlightenment. Aquarius is symbolized by the Water Bearer (visionary, wants to make the world a better place). I learned during this contest to create my own wall murals, use the fog emitter animations and lighting to bring my ideas to life. The backdrop for this story is the awesome ‘Elven Central Park’ by Murfeel which I converted to a regular lot. I had great fun creating this entry and do hope you like my interpretation :-) ENTRY FORM NAME OF SIMMER: Soocoolsim LINK TO SONG CHOSEN: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjxSCAalsBE ----------------- AGE OF AQUARIUS When the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets and love will steer the stars. This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius, the age of Aquarius Aquarius, Aquarius Harmony and understanding Sympathy and trust abounding No more falsehoods or derisions Golden living dreams of visions Mystic crystal revelation and the minds true liberation Aquarius, Aquarius When the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars Then peace will guide the planets And love will steer the stars This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius, the age of Aquarius Aquarius, AquariusDisney Magic Kingdom Community Collaboration! * COMPLETED

"Sandraelle;c-18263370" wrote: https://i.imgur.com/hvzuyE9.jpg Hello everyone! We figure that most people will probably want to pick and choose what lots they'd like to add to their Magic Kingdom World, but if you'd like a world with all the lots, I have created a world save with all the lots for you. It's missing two lots (see my note below). Depending on your computer specs, you may experience game crashes with a fully outfitted world. But if you have a powerful computer (I do not, lol), our hope is that it will run smoothly. Another option to minimize the size, is to split up the world into two world saves by having two copies and editing each world to your liking. Or if you have a mod, you may be able to make them vacation worlds, however, I'm not sure exactly how to do that. :# Just click on this zip file link to download the folder and place it in your "Electronic Arts/Sims 3/Saves" folder before launching your game. VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: If you don't already have the empty base Disney Magic Kingdom world downloaded and installed on your computer, you will need to do that first before loading up your game with my world save, otherwise it won't load the save. You can find the link to the world on page 1. :) :) :) Happy simming!!!! Note: Since I don't own Midnight Hollow's Golden Ticket Toy Shop, I wasn't able to place two of the lots. Here are the links for those two builds so you can add them in yourself.

Sims also need to be individually downloaded) Fantasia Emporium, 11 Main Street https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9501738 Auntie Gravity's Goodies, 107 Tomorrowland https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9514905 BACKGROUND ON THE PROJECT Welcome to the Sims 3 Disney Magic Kingdom Community Collaboration! Experience the magic of Disney as we invite you to collaborate in showcasing the talent within the Sims 3 community! Our launch on Oct 1/21 coincided with the official start of the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary celebrations. This project began several months ago when sparky1922 expressed her hope to me soocoolsim of having a playable Disney world. This idea grew as the talented @Hidehi worked with my input and the official Disney map to create the Magic Kingdom world base. I think you'll agree that Hidehi did an awesome job, and we're hoping for your feedback as lots are added to ensure that world routing, etc works as intended. With the addition of Sandraelle and romagi1 to the planning team, this community collaboration to create the Magic Kingdom is now open for your participation! Apr 3/23 - EDIT! All lots have been claimed or accounted for so the rest of this post is no longer valid. Thanks to everyone who participated. Your submissions have brought this world ‘to life’. Thanks also to our supporters for your comments, likes and downloads. We have had a blast and hope you enjoyed being with us on this journey. Stay tuned for the grand finale to celebrate completion of this amazing project! So now onto the fine print! Here's a chance to express your creativity with choices from a wide range of building styles. The rules are pretty simple: CLAIMING GUIDELINES Take a look at the list of lots available using either the forum posts or online spreadsheet as reference. Indicate you're on board for the collab and sign up for your first claim by posting on this thread with your chosen lot and map reference #s. I will update the list with your claim (as well as the download / media links when completed). Every two weeks (approx the 1st and 15th of the month) a new sign-up period will begin. You may claim a new lot during each sign-up period after your build is completed - as long as you don't have more than two builds underway at a time. BUILDING GUIDELINES Map areas: The following posts list the world lots along with reference maps and a short description about each area. You can also view everything consolidated in the spreadsheet linked below. Thanks to Sandraelle for creating the reference maps. Optional! View the on-line Sims 3 Magic Kingdom spreadsheet (Lots on tab 1. Maps on tab 2): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cqRP4cJ8gBpwAkDmSD5UQ36V2atAw5QCFsSyOK4wxPI/edit#gid=1788133881 Community lots / Disney attractions: The intent is to replicate the exterior of the actual attractions as best as you can. The interior design is more flexible as you see fit for the use of the lot and Sims 3 game play. Please do stay with the overall theme of the area for the decor and include any special lot designation requirements. You can Google pictures of your claimed lot and we've also included some inspiration links below which may be helpful. Residential builds: Again, please stay with the general look and overall theme of the area including your chosen lot. You have creative freedom otherwise. No third-party Custom Content allowed — please Custard Check your lots before uploading to double check. Helpful notes All Expansion Packs OK for use. All Stuff Packs OK for use. All purchasable Store Items OK for use. Free Store items can be used if they can still be downloaded. Post link(s) to your lot download / media when available. You can also include a cover shot.

We would greatly appreciate feedback on any positive experiences or concerns you may experience as the world gets populated. At this stage, we do not plan to provide a completed world. It is up to players to download and populate as desired when builds become available. Once the world is full / almost full we may provide a game save file, but first things first... to create the lots 😀 https://i.imgur.com/e0NAxlX.png Feb 9/22 - New opportunity! This is mainly for those folks who love to decorate but find building daunting. See page 14 for available shells. Now it works! Post your claim on this thread (Map #, Ref #) and download the relevant shell. Decorate as you wish using the following guidelines. In the final lot description, we request you keep the credit to the shell creator. Upload your completed build and circle back here with the link(s) to your file and (optional) screenshots. Residential shell décor guidelines No budget limitations! All EPs, SPs, store items allowed. No 3rd party CC allowed. For the exterior... You can change the colours of the siding, roofing and flooring and move/delete/add windows and doors. Create your own landscaping as you wish including adding/modifying driveways, gardens, etc. For the interior... You have free rein to modify everything! Window, door or wall in the way of your fab design? No worries... just move or delete it. Want to switch a bedroom to a study? Go right ahead... the power is with you to change the layout as you see fit. STARTER HOMES Several lots have been designated for building starter homes. Of course, other appropriate lots can be used to create a starter. Check with a planning team member if uncertain. EDIT Oct 9/22 - All designated starter homes completed! Visit this post on page 12 for the list of builds. SPIN-OFFS Players are encouraged to share links to their Disney Magic Kingdom in game stories. Please touch base with soocoolsim via PM with your blog / story link(s) for approval by the planning team. Visit this post to read stories submitted by DMK world players.

Wow, I can't believe we've completed all the lots for this Cape Albacore collaboration. That went fast and what fun it was!! We're figuring that most people like to customize their worlds and place just the lots that they choose to have in it, however, you may wish to have a complete Cape Albacore world with every single lot pre-placed in it. If so, then you're in luck, as I have created a world save file for you. :) VERY IMPORTANT: You will first need to download and install the empty base Cape Albacore world for my world save file to work. If not installed on your computer yet, here is the download link. After installing an empty world, just click on this zip file link to download the folder and place it in your “Electronic Arts/Sims 3/Saves” folder before launching your game.

Birthday Directory Now Celebrating: No One (That We Know Of)!!
Hi there and welcome to the Birthday Directory!!! Before posting for the first time, please make sure to read this entire post - especially the Important Rules. It is very much appreciated!!! Important Rules: 1) Please do not just post your own birthday without saying Happy Birthday to whomever is having a birthday on the day of your post. We will NOT place you in the directory until you follow this rule. 2) We need to know a little something about you, so we can make your card special! Sims 3: In the About Me section of your Sims 3 My Page, please add some things that you like (favorite colors, hobbies/interests, animals, movies, books, etc). If you only have a Sims 4 account:: There isn't an About Me section, so within your first post requesting to be added to our directory, please add some things that you like (favorite colors, hobbies/interests, animals, movies, books, etc). This will make our lives a whole lot easier, and your card will be much more personal. :) 3) If you are not an active member (no activity in at least 9-12 months) of the Sims 4 or Sims 3 site, we will mark your name with (Will be removed for inactivity). If we have marked your name with this, we consider you as inactive. To reinstate your active status, you will need to post in this thread. If we don't hear from you for an additional year, your birthday will be removed from the directory. The birthday team uses their own personal time, without pay, EVERY day researching and making personalized cards for EACH active members' birthday. It would be too much energy and a waste of time for us to do this for someone who may never see it. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Additional Rules: 1) Please do not quote the months below. We just need you to wish a Happy Birthday to whomever is having a birthday that day, and your month and day of birth. We promise we will figure out where it goes! :wink: 2) Please do not request any store items or place a link to your wishlist here. 3) We can only accept requests to be added to the Directory by the member posting the request. If you would like to add a friend, please urge them to visit this thread and sign up. Birthday Team Members may add someone else's birthday, at their discretion. Multiple Accounts Notice: Please do not add multiple accounts to the directory. If you already have multiple accounts listed here, please leave a message on the My Page of one of our active birthday team members. We will respect your privacy in this matter. If we find that you have more than one account and you did not inform us of it beforehand, ALL your accounts will be taken off the directory. Thank you for your understanding. ---------------------------------------------------- Thank you to all those that consider this thread a happy place to come to, a place where we can celebrate and help brighten our fellow simmer's day!!! :smiley: http://dl7.glitter-graphics.net/pub/1780/1780327vl5fqskqr0.gif Month Links: January February March April May June July August September October November December ---------------------------------------------------- Our Fabulous Birthday Directory Team: ______JediAriel____________Lissykin__________chocbubbles__________StephBE_______TEXASKITTYKAT__ http://lvlt.thesims3.com/sims3_asset/sims3_asset/avatar/shard000/000/005/340/69/543/medium.jpg Current Schedule: **JediAriel, TEXASKITTYKAT & StephBE on hiatus for personal business** Lissykin: Monday, Friday, Sunday chocbubbles: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday If you have any questions or need help with something, please don't hesitate to contact either Lissykin or chocbubbles.

Please do not post any comments on this thread Welcome to Build-n-Share Challenge Archives. Hopefully you have heard about the weekly Build-n-Share challenge for builders. If not, we hope you will visit our Official Thread at the Creative Corner board, where you can find the current challenge. The reason for this thread is because we have had many requests for an archive of the Build-n-Share challenges. Now you can take a look at the past challenges and if you are bored, you can always use them as an inspiration, and/or to find some buildings you would like to download to your game. Every month, we offer a specific building request for builders of all levels to tackle in their own unique way. We offer different levels of experience, and those who enter receive (at the very least, because it's usually many more) one rec and a download for your work. At the end of the challenge, winners are posted within a week and every entrant receives feedback on his or her work at the winner's circle thread. In the posts below, you will find all the information and links related to each challenge. We hope you enjoy it, and if you would like to make any comments, please do so, but in our Official Thread at the Creative Corner board as we need this thread chat- free for the whole purpose of an Archive. Thank you so much and we hope to see you in our challenges. Sincerely, The Build-n-Share TeamSale! Sims 3 Expansion Packs
