Modern Wood - a starter home

<< < (5/5)

cuthbert:
Thank you for uploading this. I have downloaded lots of houses since TS2, and hardly ever used any of them. I like the various ideas of the uploaders (especially houses made by plasticbox - they're amazingly pretty,) but always end up building the house myself because while the downloaded houses are pleasing to the eye, they are rarely good at playing in them. Your house looks very good AND funtional. I really like it.  :D

So if I want to create an awesome starter with the awesomemod in mind hoping the mod moves familys in, what would the rules be?
Is there a difference between the houses the townies will move into and the starter houses your active families will start with? Do you care if the townies get cold showers and less sleep?
Townies don't actually care about any of these things and do not TRULY use their furniture except when you really look, so no, they don't care. However, it's best to design houses you will actually USE!

High end: showers/tubs, beds, stoves and fridges. Anything else?
For PLAYABLE usage, you need high-end showers (tubs and showertubs are luxury items of low utility), beds (There's a huge 3 hour difference between them!), and fridges (at least middle-class, the cheapest is right out). Everything else, you can slash corners on ruthlessly. Quality of chairs is irrelevant, for instance, as chairs are only used to read from (you don't read at home) or watch TV (you can't afford one worth watching), or other very short-duration tasks. Plus the moodlet only stick as long as you sit in it, which is, really, not very long. The highest quality terlet is indestructible, but this isn't necessarily an asset when you want to grind the repair skill up.
