Creating a World. Empty Creating a World.

Post by ☠ ~ Aɳɳ ~ ☠ Thu 29 Nov 2012, 15:55

Hello,

I'm creating a world and I have a CAW screenshot to share Smile
Creating a World. Image112

It's going to be a small, compact world. As you can see. The reason for this is that I'd really like to experience smoother gameplay. My PC is on the low end of low end and most worlds are pretty large, causing sims to take their fine time going places and getting stuck here or there. I hope to avoid that with this compact island.
So far I'm finished with the roads, trees/decorations and lot placement. I have 19 community lots and 42 residential lots. Lots include all the necessary rabbitholes (including the equestrian centre) and Ambitions career lots. Not finished are a library, a gym, a pool, the beach, the park and the fishing spot. I'm not including late Night buildings. I no longer have Late Night installed and I don't see where I can place them anyway. I didn't include a festival lot because it appears to cause some problems with lagging/freezing.
I used mostly rabbitholes from Appaloosa Plains because they are combined rabbitholes, so less community lots are needed, less commute, so less opportunities to freeze.

It's not my very first project, I played with the Riverview worldfile before. It is the very first world I created from scratch so I didn't too too much landscaping. Besides I'm not sure how that would work out on my pc Laughing

The yellow square boxes are designated community lots, the blue ones are residential.

Feedback is welcomed and also please help me think of a name for this world. I'm not creative when it comes to that. I'll be posting screenshots from time to time and I'm thinking of creating a poll when the time comes to name and export the world. It'll probably be a while, since I intend to build all homes from scratch!

How about ElDi Island? Smile

I'd be glad to beta the world for you during its stages. I also love building from scratch and would love to design a lot or two for the world.

So far I'm having trouble getting the first draft installed for testing. It won't show up no matter what I do.

Im having some problems too Lady Eldi. My children and I have come up with a fantasy world called Cinema City, where every street you may travel is named after a Movie or television show that we like. Its a large Island that has every venue you could imagine, it even has a fantasy "Strip" like in Vegas which even includes strip clubs, and casino's. I'm almost done landscaping but I need to be able to EIG so that way I can place the lots and see how much more landscaping needs to be done, and where! As soon as Im able to EIG i will post some screens!
