I am looking for a Coal mine for my neighborhood. I'm building a small western town based in the 1900's. I have a mining career downloaded from here already. I'm looking for any CC that could be used for this mining town, and any and all buildings/people/clothing that anyone has would be helpful.

I need a
General Store
School
Merchantile
Jailhouse
Mine
Saloon
Cafe
Doctor's Office

and anything else that would be essential in an old western town.

Thanks in advance!!!!!

Love your idea!

You might want to post this in the WCIF section for more help.

Plumbobkeep has a mining work station. http://www.medievalsims.com/forums/...hp?f=240&t=6612

WCIF is better for requests... But
I use stuff by xmathyx @ MTS who has done a whole pile of western buildings. Here's their version of the salon. http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=544032
As suggested by Jo, plumbob keep allows you to create proper mines which gives you baskets of ore to sell
And Nix Nix has produced a custom blacksmith workstation with costumes. https://nixedsims.wordpress.com/201...smith-crafting/

There are also a couple of other towns on MTS. Search on here under "western".

I thought about putting it in the WCIF, but it's kind of like a discussion post too. I want to know what others think about this and what they would add to a neighborhood like this. I also need a terrain to put this neighborhood in. Right now I have Viper Canyon, but it's kind of big.

I use a bunch of these lots in my Old West hood http://www.all4sims.de/board/filebase.php?lim=0&cat=94 ( registration may be required, it's been awhile can't remember). Also http://simscave.mustbedestroyed.org...hp?topic=1645.0 and http://simscave.mustbedestroyed.org....php?topic=98.0. There are quite a few lots I use from here as well Baraquements-Hutments, Cantina-Bank, General Store-Barber Shop, Saloon, Scierie-Sawmill and the Hotel. Also the Far West stuff, links here https://m.box.com/shared_item/https...Fs%2F3srouxdnvz and https://m.box.com/shared_item/https...Fs%2Freu0464gy8. More stuff here http://svs.paysites.mustbedestroyed..._sims/big_barn/

It's fun playing an Old west hood, I use dirt road terrain defaults, don't allow anything that wouldn't have existed prior to about 1880 -90( just my arbitrary cutoff) and start everyone with a zero food quantity in their pantry/larder. Everyone walks or rides horses/wagons ( look for Hexameter stuff on here for that) and dresses the part as well ( much of that from All About Style). There are literally tons of cc that is applicable, just get prepared for a little time sink finding it.
Good luck!

If any of those links are dead just hit me up and I'll upload stuff myself.

Thanks! I'll get to looking tonight! I spent 2 hours yesterday downloading everything from aas.

Multiple brothels would be historically accurate, especially in a mining town.

You forgot the livery stable and post office.

@Peni Griffin, The post office is going to be inside the merchantile market.
What I'm having trouble finding right now is going to be a neighbhorhood mine decoration or a mine lot. I downloaded a hobby lot where you can make ore like you do robots or flowers, but I need something that you can see from neighborhood view.
I also downloaded the 1x1 lot so I can use that for the houses that the miners are going to live in.
Is there something to where the owner of the mine can own the houses that the miners are going to live in? I guess I could use family funds to have them pay rent.
I also heard about something that I could put in my Sim's inventory where they will no longer roll wants to get promoted and it keeps them at a certain job level. Has anybody used it and if so, what did you think about it?
Anything else that you think would look good in this western town, or any comments that anybody has would be greatly appreciated.



An outhouse. I just went on tsr, (ugh) and I noticed that they had a western style bathroom, but realized that I needed an outhouse. What would I need to make that? Do I need any special mods or anything? or can I put a toilet outside around a box?

You might try a train station, there's one on this site that leefish made here. You just may need to redecorate a bit to get it wild west style interior.

Also neighborhood decoration train tracks , the wild west had trains anyhow.

As for an outhouse there's this one and this one right here on MTS.

Also I think you are referring to the 'job stopinator' in your post above about keeping the job at a certain level. That is found here by Cyjon.

Ownership
Residential - Monique's Landlord & Tenant Mod (
Dorms, Hotels, Apartment Lots - Simlogical Income Lot Rights
Commercial lots - Maxis in game - using purchase "Real Estate"

I use items from Plumbob keep. I've just checked and the large stone mountains for mining show up in neighbourhood view. I use stairs to simulate working below ground, the stairs are also visible in neighbourhood view, so are the decorative mining carts. If your thinking of large mining machines, I haven't seen anything like that. But modders Cyclonesue and BeOSBoxBoy have produced several construction and building sets.

Verenka converted the all in one outhouse from Sims 3, and Nix Nix has provided wood recolours. . There are other versions by modders such as Dr.Pixel.

Sorry can't work the picture thing, but here's my mining lot in neighbourhood view. Mining lot from neighbourhood view

Thank you everybody, for all your help!
