Two Fallout Structures Done!

I love it when inspiration hits me! I was able to push myself to get two of the houses done today. Hopefully, I can get another 2 done tomorrow. I may end up adding some clutter to Minefield but we'll see. Anyway, here are the shots!

Framework from Fallout 3

I've always loved the sims. And, ever since getting married, my husband has got me hooked on Fallout. Namely, Fallout 3. Well, MTS is having an apocalypse theme this month and I have decided to attempt to make a series of homes from Fallout for the theme. I am a bit into one of the homes but not much. On my list are Big Town, Grayditch, Megaton, Minefield, and Springvale. If I am feeling particularly suicidal, I may decide to attempt Tenpenny Towers as well, but we'll see how long the rest takes me. Below are just the shots, obviously, of the Fallout version. I will update as I get things worked on.

 

 

 

1329 Prescott Street - Halliwell Manor

1329 Prescott Street is the home of the legendary Charmed ones. It sits atop a spiritual and Wiccan nexus and can be swayed to either good or evil, giving a power boost to those that control it. The home has been owned by the Halliwell line for three generations. In the ownership of the sisters, the home provides a base for good and a shelter for the family that sacrifices so much to protect the innocent.

The home follows blueprints as carefully as I could possibly get it. There are some changes, such as the house being wider on the exterior to fit everything inside. Also, the front room has been left empty. At one point, Piper comments that Grams had a sewing room. When Phoebe and Paige move out, a room becomes the fitness room so that front room could become any of those things, depending on your needs. Also WARNING: the basement is inaccessible. I did not discover this until the house was completely done. The basement stairs placed with no problem and no cheats(at the very beginning of lot building, before I had the rest of the foundation). However, my sim was not able to go down the short flight and then down the long flight as needed. If you want to use the basement, just teleport the sim there. It is the ONLY part of the manor that is inaccessible which I have to say is pretty damn good with all the nooks and crannies, clutter, and non-matching sets with floorplans. If you don't like this, don't download. You have been warned.

After a year of waiting (since the last one) I finally finished the manor and correctly! Thanks to missroxor, I decided to enter it into a Charmed manor contest (no results yet) which really gave me the inspiration I needed to get it done. Sometimes a deadline is all it takes! The version for the contest is a little different than the one I will be posting here. The contest version has no CC but is pretty heavy on the store content while this version is opposite, although most CC used is for aesthetics and clutter only. It is up to you to choose what you want.

For the items in maroon that the store no longer has; if you have them great! If not, they should be replaced by the game. As with most of the items, they are for decor. I highly recommend, at the very least, the build content, the stove, piano, and mini TVs. However, if you want the home to look as it does in pictures, you will need all the items listed.

I made another house, before starting to play Generations so the new game/setting would be perfect. Preparation is key! It is a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath family home with a converted garage into a family room. The home will be the stage for my new story about the Gallop family.

Joy Gallop has recently been widowed and is left to help raise her two granddaughters while her wild child daughter, Katherine, goes out to party and have fun. Katherine dislikes children and isn't sure how she ended up with not only one, but TWO, of them. Emma and Eden Kidd (who share Emma's father's last name), are as different as two children can be. Will Joy be able to raise the girls well? Will Katherine stay with her family or leave for the bright lights of Bridgeport? Will Emma and Eden grow to be friends or will their conflicting personalities drive them apart? Stay tuned!

Jessica Ivy

I finally got around to making my self-sim. Features wise, she seems to fit the bill. However, I don't think it all adds up to look like me. I think she adorable anyway and couldn't resist taking loads of pictures of her! So I shall share with you. :)

 

Jessica Ivy | Mediafire 

To look as she does in the pictures you shall need a few things:

Nice Skin | LadyFrontBum

Silk Face |LadyFrontBum

Freckles | LadyFrontBum

Naval Piercing | LadyFrontBum 

Oh My, Eyes! | Escand

Jessica was packaged WITHOUT this content and for the skin, unless you get the default version, you will have to place it yourself. She was made with patch 1.22 .

Oh My Soles!

 Yes, soles as in shoes. From my love of flip-flops? Never mind.

Anyway, it has been INCREDIBLY too long since I last updated. I have been constantly working on my projects, just a tad lazy to update here. Riverview is still in the process of being worked on and the latest updates can be found over in the creator feedback forum on MTS. Here are a few of the latest pictures of the overview though. Riverview Feedback Forum is where you will find the latest pictures and news relating to the project. I have discovered a snag it seems though. I can install the game just fine, however anyone with Generations EP and latest update cannot. So, we might be at a standstill, at least testing-wise until I get GEN.

In another news, I have started a Legacy story. That too can be found on MTS (yes, yes, I know, not wise to put all the eggs in the same basket and what not). Rebecca is a young woman, who orphaned at an early age by indifferent parents, heads off to Twinbrook to start over, hoping to find love but never really believing that it will be within her reach. Read it here.

Lastly, I will be hosting a story contest some time in the near future. Yes, that's right, MTS again. It will, hopefully, challenge the contestants to use both their minds and picture taking skills to tell a story, any story, in 5 chapters. It will be for the Sims 3 and at the moment, I am still needing judges as well as exuberant contestants. Keep an eye out for an update when the first round opens.

Homes Around the Neighborhood

Okay everyone. I've decided to post a couple of homes that I have recently made for the neighborhood. These are all starter homes and I should be updating with some middle class housing as well, when I get them furnished!!!
