Adventure!
Bounded on the North, East and South by picturesque mountains, Bayborough rests nestled along the banks of the Arbormill River. Originally founded by the survivors of an exodus gone awry at sea, this settlement has grown into a quiet, idyllic town perfect for the growing family, prosperity seekers, and adventure!

Do not ever install a beta world into your play game! To completely remove all traces and make a final version playable it is necessary to remove the dcdb files created during installation.
To test a world:
1. Remove your play game dcdb files (in My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3) and place them somewhere safe.
2. Install world.
If Riverview is included in your installed content you will need to remove it via the uninstall world method below. You can then reinstall it in your test game for use with your testing.
To uninstall a world:
1. Use the uninstall option from the game launcher.
2. Delete all caches (including and most definately worldcache).(in My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3)
3. Delete all dcdb files from your DCCache folder.(in My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3)
4. Make sure all .world files are removed from your InstalledWorlds folder.(in My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3)
You can then replace your play game dbdc files and install the final version of your new world for play. I recommend always testing a world before deciding to add it permanently to your game.

This looks very promising. I won't be trying it just yet though, as I have two other worlds I need to play with first, but yours is definitely going on my list of worlds to try. One thing I am hoping for is fewer standard rabbitholes in custom hoods.
Claeric:
The grass looks a bit too dark, and the texture is waaaaaaay too repetitive.
The road layout is interesting but without a shot of lot placement we can't really tell if it's any good or not (curved roads make connecting lots to the street difficult if not immpossible, and this has a lot of them. We need to see where lots are placed.)
The palms by the beach are a tad too cliche, I think, and you can also see the edges of the distant terrain in the ocean. And those mountains are too 6-year-old-drawing-mountains, they look really out of place.
This criticism is based on screenshots alone, for reference.

I do have in mind to do exactly this with my next world attempt, as the theme will call for it. This being my first attempt at new worlding I took some shortcuts.

Here are some lot placement shots for you.
I took these with the default grass texture so you could compare it to the one I used. It could be my computer settings but the darker one I used fits the "lush" look I was going for and is a lot less noticeable in it's repetitiveness. Unfortunately, any lighter grass textures I try have the extreme visible tiling or they are too yellow. Perhaps I just haven't found the right texture pack yet.
Here's a bird's eye comparison of the grass:
I'd be happy to upload an alternate version with the lighter grass if you would prefer.

What would you expect him to put by the beach? They are cliche because they belong there.
