2  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Still working on a new Bridgeport, But.. i'm in need of some assistance on: 2015 December 14, 11:25:43
Hello everyone, after 3 years of work, I am still working on and off on a new Bridgeport.

All of the buildings are custom-build by me, world terrain has been altered and so on and so on.

I tried to incorporate old and new buildings with styles going back to the gilded age in America, skyscrapers in old and new styles.
there are some different districts, the hills, where the mansions are located, the old marina at the lower end of the hills near the bay, the downtown where most of the scyscrapers are, uptown also highrise but more expensive to live, China town and the harbour district. also there is a palace-complex cause my Sim loves to live large (14 lots combined to form the complex)

every lot is custom build for the lot it is on, so every single house has been build to include the slope of the terrain,

Now I know I have a lot to do still, I would like to incorporate all cc from the store like the tea-room set, the casino, the savvy sellers collection etc.
however there are 3 things bothering me.

1-
As an Interior designer in real life, I tend to "overstyle" interiors and make the lots to much the way I make them so it becomes uniform..
I need help to decorate lots! bars, restaurants, shops, theatres and such.

All rabbitholes are "hidden"in the basement with the rabbitholes from Lunar lakes but above that the offices and hospital and such need decoartion to don't they?

is there anyone who would like to tackle a lot or more to help me a bit?
or even take a look at the world as it is now and point out if I have made some mistakes in routing?

2- I use what is inhand, so that includes CC from Awesims, Simresource and such, do they upload with the world, should they upload with the world and/or should I include them in seperate CC-files with the download if I decide to upload it?

3- Also, how many empty lots should I leave in the game for people to make their own houses?


If someone is interested I can post more pictures.
 here are some Screenshots












and here is the world-file.http://www.mediafire.com/download/j2vo5948byyvo52/NewPort.rar

I just checked that site and there is a lot of cool stuff there. It seems like he would be the person to work with in a project like this, if he is willing to do so.

 Smiley

He made me these hulls and I do not want to sound ungratefull but it is not what I asked for, they are not recolorable and the shape is modern and still to short/flat
, I want to build a classic yacht for my sim and be able to recolour it.
It is a perfect example of what i want trough, only a larger bow (one story high and longer, I want to build a yacht like the Delphine :

And yes, i know I am being a prick for asking.

.Sadly I only fit one of those criteria.  Grin

And what is that one criteria you do fit?
5  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: Pudding Factory is for downloads: put your lame requests & WCIFs here on: 2013 September 25, 10:05:33
I think it is a cool idea but that it is not something that can be done. We can only build on the ground and floors and it would be an object. And if it covers the barge it will block access for sims so it could never be used and never be moved by them. Someone would have to design a whole new lot type and I don't think that will happen.

Carlos over at Simminginmagnificent style has tried to make one and while it is decent, but it is extremely shiny and it is not recolorable also it is not the shape I would like to see, it is a start trough and shows what I mean,(and that it can be done.. maybe someone willing to make a better version?

Your B redo is looking great. Smiley

Thanks, almost there.. after 2,5 years!
6  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: Pudding Factory is for downloads: put your lame requests & WCIFs here on: 2013 September 24, 12:25:55
I think your other best chance is to request this at MTS. You can try TSR but probably will not have luck there as the forums there are about dead.
I have no idea where, there seems to be no tread where I can request that.

One issue is that if you place this object over the hull the game will probably consider as an object and not a floor, so you will not be able to build on it. Also, there is the issue of how sims would access it.
As long as it is sailable and the centrepart is buildable I am not worried, I have seen this one and I think it is perfect.

I also ahve seen the stuff Luna made, but what I am looking for is not that, I am looking for A hull that goes over the ugly barge hull..
7  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Re: Bridgeport redo: where to upload? on: 2013 September 20, 08:10:10
Sorry I let this tread rest for so long.

I have been so busy with this and it is still in Beta.
Again I altered the worldfile itself, making it slightly more tropical.
I also altered the palace,Gardens and some lots.
It needs ALL EP's and SP's,

It now needs testers, I have put it in 2 parts, the worldfile and save game.
The CC should be included but I have copied the files from CC magic to a separate download if needed,
I do not know if it is needed for the game to load since I tried to use as much simpack-files as possible, I heard they upload with the world

I am adding a link to 4share if anyone is interested in beta-testing it.
it is now for 75% complete and is playable.

And some pictures of how the world is now.

Fresh Prince and the rest of the car modders have had a long time to make cars, as cars came with the base game. Meanwhile, houseboats are new, and from a technical standpoint completely different from cars.  Houseboats are mobile lots, not objects.
I am not asking to mod a houseboat (altrough that would be awesome, to maybe be able to determine the size it would be!)
What I am thinking about is a deco item that would cover that barge up. and people have been making custom deco items for a long,long time to.

EA has shown how they love shells for buildings.  The campus in University shows this.

I know, I was really glad with Lunar lakes, reasonably better hidable rabitholes that I use in the (shell free) world I am building, I Hate those fugly shells EA gives us.
And you are right, it is easyer said than done, Wish I could mesh myself so I wouldn't need to bother other people with my idea.
9  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: Pudding Factory is for downloads: put your lame requests & WCIFs here on: 2013 September 19, 13:40:55
They're not supposed to look like ships or yachts.  They're houseboats.  Houseboats tend to be squared off and clunky.

not all of them are, here in Holland it is quite common to convert a boat to be a houseboat.
on a side note, houseboats have no place on the oceans either, they stay on rivers and lakes and the ones EA gave us do not.
Hell they cant even be on other water than the oceans.
Besides those point I think it would be awesome to be able to live on a proper boat, have fish trawlers, Tugboats and other ships docked to make the game look more real  or have a private yacht for my rich Sims.
we have tons of cars from Fresh Prince and Understretch imagination but still fugly boats.
10  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: Pudding Factory is for downloads: put your lame requests & WCIFs here on: 2013 September 19, 10:48:07
I know that it is kinda possible to make those barges kinda look like ships, i have build some  with CFE cheats to make them even kinda better than those. they kinda look right but it is still just that.. Kinda so not right at all... they will never look near what I have in mind or resemble a ship no mater how drunk i will get myself ;-)
they do not resemble any ship/yacht/boat in existence today.
Even with normal tools I am able to build better ships than what is possible on the limits EA gave us for boats and then they changed the possibility to build walls in water at all so now I can not build anything anymore Sad

for example this is the private yacht my Sims have now:

It was build before Island Paradise and although it looks to be afloat,is not sail able. it just sits there which is annoying. 

It seems EA kinda thinks hey, we have a great idea.. houseboats, now lets see how we can make it that only 4 year old girls can think they rule..
Sizes are off and not changeable, the barges look like drawn in a drunken mood by someone with even worse modelling skills than me, and the recoloring options seem to suit with those criteria to.

I have some ideas of how to make them better, but my meshing skills are most likely worse than yours.
What I have in mind is just a plain hull that fits over the 8x22 barge,so it can be a slender hull and then we can build our own upper structure in/on it


this google scetchup model gives an idea, the lower green line is where the underside of the bare will be and the red line is where the upper part is, leaving plenty space to build your own structure on top of it.

I even found some nice meshes that are free to use and can be used to make some variety of ships.
but I do not know how to.
11  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Another lame request probably on: 2013 September 18, 13:05:21
I hate the houseboats that came with the game (surprise) there is not really a way to build prety looking ships at all with them.
So I was thinking what if we took the slim (6x22) barge and put a "hull"over it that at least looks like a ship, and maybe covers the barge, and maybe the first floor? so we can make proper ships?

I have tried a bit with these meshes but not surprisingly sucked at it.
my idea was to use just the hull shape and do the upper structures in game
so I downloaded the software, and blurred out not knowing where to start.

These meshes are what I had in mind.

Anyone else who would like to see better movable boats ? or is willing to give this a go?

Hello Miss DaisyLee!

you here to Cheesy

As you might know, I used to call it Sim Francisco buy I noticed someone made a world called just that..
I can always rename the file I put it in.

I use cc-magic to organise my game and was planning just to include those files and a link to where to download it..
My CC is in Simpacks and .package files in the original backup.
how do you convert packages to simpacks?
and if I convert it to simpacks, does that really mean that the cc will be included in the world?
that would save so much trouble!

It is a good idea to rar the world and save! thanks.

I have all EP's installed (some downloaded from piratebay)

It is not that much bigger than the original Bridgeport and it runs even faster (don't know why, but it runs smoother and faster)
I have no idea where to look to see the discspace or megabytes.

and a referral would be apreciated.
14  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Re: Bridgeport redo: where to upload? on: 2012 December 03, 13:10:38
Today I installed Seasons and it fracked up my routing.. I am looking at CAW now to see what is up with that
15  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Re: Bridgeport redo: where to upload? on: 2012 December 02, 20:42:32
That MATY disaproves of paysites is what made me post the question here in the first place ;-)

Is is based on the original Bridgeport, I removed all known bugs, added land and changed lot-sizes But overall it is still Bridgeport.
I believe it is medium sized? but the file is bigger cause I doubled the amount of lots.

CC list is big but limited to artists like Cyclonesue, Cashcraft, msBarrows, The Simskey and Awesims (who I adore for making awesome content and NOT being a paysite
Also Gogginator from this site with his roofs plays a big part in the world.

And I moved some of the original family's to the city (Goth,Landgraab etc.)

I have a Beta version that some friends are playing right now, but that world still lacks some of the interiors of the bars and such.
16  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / The World Of Pudding / Bridgeport redo: where to upload? on: 2012 December 02, 15:00:43
Hello all,

I am almost done with a rebuild of Bridgeport.
It has become a nice all custom world with every lot in it build by me, I altered the world layout and jadajada...
Thene here is the problem I see...
I use a lot of CC in the world and have custom rabit-holes. (jinx's rugs) that is needed for the world to work.
Ofcourse I will not claim the CC as my own but it is needed for all the lots to show up correctly.

That brings me to the question where to upload, and how..
I guess I need to add all cc in a seperate folder, as I do with the save-game, but where, cause it is stuffed with CC I did not make.

does anyone know what site does not mind some cc made by others (some is paysite content)

here is what I have build, to give you guys an idea.






There is a buildtread at TSR in case the pictures do not show enough.
http://forums.thesimsresource.com/index.php?/topic/264123-bridgeport-redo/

Any ideas?

Greets,

Erwin

17  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: M&G and AL mansard roof conversion on: 2011 March 10, 12:24:42
I saw this windows' Apartment life roof version for sims 2 maybe you can create.It looks useful because there is no window for this roof  Wink

I agree, that would be awesome, But I don't Know id Goggalor does requests..
If he does, here is a link:
http://www.modthesims.info/d/324328.

The roofs work perfect in game, Thank you so much for these!

If you do take requests, could you maybe make a Convex version of it?
( I am dutch, I don't know the right word for it so I added a picture)
I would love to have that so I could build a proper version of the louvre.



Thanks for reading anyway.

Hey Jeebuschrist,

All I did was ask if someone could help me make some wallpapers, since I can not do that myself,
Maybe I did not do that in an understandable way but it would have been nicer to point me to my mistakes instead of having a fit at me for it
If that is their way of communicating than I apologise for taking it personal.

This was my first post here on the site, I am a newbie so if you could explain what is not understandable about my post please tell me.
 

Well here goes...

I am trying to recreate some houses I have build in TS2 since well they were awesome,
I want to recreate a big manor.
(I have a profile on both MTS2 and TSR same username if you want to check my work)

However I am an al right lot builder,
I really s*ck with making CC myself so I am forced to ask you talented people to help me...

I would really like to have the wall papers made by V1ND1CARE for the sims3
 (here are the links)
http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=322737
http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=249000

I would love to make some amazing palaces again so if there is someone out there who is willing to help me I would be in their debt (for what it is worth)

Thanks for reading my request,

Erwin.

(1) Signing your post when your name is clearly displayed.
(2) Making very little sense, which is partially excused on account of: ESL.
(3) Probably being German.
(4) Although you have no avatar, your head is presumably quite fat.
(5) I'll think up something for (5) later.

(1) I am new, introducing myself seems kinda like the right thing to do, since I don't think your mother called YOU Spockblock at berth.
(2) It is indeed of English being my second language but instead of just being rude you could just ask what I mean.
(3) I am Dutch, it is kinda rude calling me German since half of my family was killed in that war Dude.
(4) My head is fine, But making that remark makes me question what kind of body dysfunctions you must have to bring up such non essential stuff.
Furthermore making a cartoon your avatar makes me sure you must be uglier than anyone I have seen.... 
(5) You probably will, people who have no meaning in life but to insult people who they don't know mostly have a pitiful live and hear al lot of insults on a daily basis
probbably by :

(A) A partner in discontent of your sex-life or you being not well equipped proper enough to get the job done
(b) Your mother in her disappointment of giving birth to the likes of you...


I am new to the site and made a request for wallpapers so I can build lots, If I posted these in the wrong tread, or did it the wrong way tell me in a normal matter.
Or shut the F up loser!

Yes, and people wanted to savage you for various reasons, but you get a pass on account of being foreign.

Can you name a view?

For as far as I know I have no trouble with people..

21  TS3/TSM: The Pudding / Pudding Factory / Re: Pudding Factory is for downloads: put your lame requests & WCIFs here on: 2010 December 22, 05:27:48

I want some help with wallpapers for the Sims thats all.
