Is there a cheat to increase lot size?

(1/4) > >>

aussieone:
I have a sim living in the nightlife townhouse.

As some of you might know, the townhouse is quite big, but the surrounding yard is small.

My sim has a want to swim, so I would like to build a pool, but the lot size doesn't have enough room to permit a pool to be built.

Any suggestions, besides moving out to a smaller house with a bigger yard?

gali:
The houses in Downtown are small cubes, that are built only for "slams"...:). You can't put there a garage, nor a swimming pool.

You have two options:
1) When your sim wants to swim, take him to one of the parks that have a swimming pool.
2) Use "motherlode", buldoze some small lots, and build a proper house for your sim...:).

The miserable sims have "miserable" patrons (i.e. you)...:). (Jocking). But really I can't understand how players let their sims to suffer in the game...:).

I thought most housese downtown already had garages.  What are "slams?"

Well....ouchy wouch woo woo Gali!!! LOL

I'm not gonna move my sim to a new lot.......
also I don't let my sim suffer...hence my need to try and increase his royal simminess's lot size to accomodate a swimming pool.....

My sim has plenty of simoleans to move to another lot, so Motherlode is irrelevant....but the townhouse is wonderfullly large to accomodate a growing family...when he decides to get married and start one, however like I've stated it's very limited in it's backyard.......hence my query about increasing lot sizes  :)

Myth:
If the townhouse is built without a foundation just add an indoor pool.  If the townhouse is built on a foundation you can delete the center of the foundation and make a sunken area that you can add a pool to.  (Make sure you leave room for at least one set of stairs.) 

If the townhouse is small to begin with you can always extend the first level floor plan to accomodate the pool.  I know there is a great set of transparent walls and doors at MTS2 that you can make a sunroom with to accent the indoor pool.
