Thanks a bunch Velocity! This,ll be really handy for making specialty community lots like gardens, etc.

Thanks for clearing up the differences. I agree with Inge (and all the other posters) that this is an excellent option to adding lot sizes to your game. Thanks for your contribution!

Easy to install and easier to use. Thank you so much for this, you are one of my all time favorite modders for a reason. I seriously appreciate you for this, thank you!

Just thought I'd bring this up in case you didn't know, though I seem to be the only who having the problem judging by the comments. :c Bleh.

As soon as I installed this, I noticed a problem with adding lots. It's not just the new lot sizes I've tried adding (small lots), but EA lot sizes too. When I try to place a new lot and load it, it gets stuck on the loading screen with the new lot sizes and takes anywhere from 5-15 minutes to load EA lot sizes (even 10x10). When I remove the mod, it works as it should. I know it's installed right and I have the right patch and all of that. It's annoying.
I know the new lot sizes would probably take a while to load normally, but I left it sitting overnight and it still hadn't loaded.

I really like the idea of this though.
If I ever manage to get it to work right, it'll probably end up being one of my favorite/most used mods.

Thank you SO much!! I've been needing one of these!

You my sir, just saved my day!!!
Can u perhaps make it possible to make bigger lots than 64*64? :D

Just a note to let you know this is one of the Top Ten mods I've downloaded. BIG kiss on the cheek!

Excellent, Thank you so much!

Velocitygrass updated the mod a few days ago to fix a loading issue, so, if you haven't already, perhaps re-download and see if that helps your problem.

This is awesome! But it looks like it could be dangerous to my game. As far as I remember, I only have one other script mod called the magic wand by KoliPoki. I don't think these two will conflict with each other. It's just that after downloading, I loaded my Active Household. It takes forever to load, the loading bar didn't move a single bit forward after over 10 minutes. (For me, this is normal. I have a lot of CC ) but before the bar even showed any further progress, my game crashed to the desktop. It did so after I tried to open the task manager using Ctrl-alt-delete so I could look at how much memory my game is using to run. I have always been afraid of Script and Core mods because I heard how fatal they can be for the game. I figured this one would be okay, it's my first one. But yeah, my game failed. Any help, please? But by the way, you are an awesome modder and I honor your work.

@TickleOnTheTum: When I checked your example package, I almost figured you'd preferred to have them in correct order I'll check if the existing ones can (optionally) be removed on the weekend.

@StardustX: I don't have this issue, and I also don't know what could cause this. The new lot sizes are simply added to be available in the list, and this should happen immediately. The actual adding of the lots (i.e. placing them in the world) shouldn't be affected by it. And certainly shouldn't affect the existing lot sizes. This is very strange. The load issue that I fixed, as nonamena mentioned, was related to loading a different save game/starting a new world after the first world. Just to be clear: It's displaying of the lot icons with the different lot sizes that takes long? So they appear one every 5-15 minutes instead of immediately as they should when you switch to the add lot mode in the world editor? Or do you mean placing the lot after selecting it?

@niller1994: It was tried to add lots larger than 64x64 and the game crashed immediately, so I added the restriction in my mod as a precaution.

@Princess_Celestial: When did you download the mod? I did fix an issue that would cause a second load in a gaming session (i.e. after returning to the main menu) to load forever. So maybe download it again and see if it works.

@Velocitygrass I just downloaded it today on March 15 2012. I got the only file that was listed in the section. I figured that was the latest one.

@Princess_Celestial: Then you should have the latest version with the fix. When I look into TickleOnTheTum's request over the weekend, I'll also see if other approaches to registering the cheat code might help those who have issues with the mod.

Thank you Velocitygrass. I will have to remove this mod for awhile to see if my game crashing to the desktop is it's fault. It might be something else.

@Princess_Celestial: I understand. Let me know if it was an unrelated issue.

your making me want sims 3 now

@Velocitygrass I think it was unrelated. I am so happy now, because when I got rid of your mod, I also decided to get rid of the magic wand I got and I decided to get into the, "out with the old, in with the new" thing, and I got rid of some old custom clothing I didn't use anymore. Now my game runs ten times faster! I bet it was an unrelated issue. I'll give your mod another chance and get back to you soon.

It doesn't work for me. It says 'Unknown Comment'. Is there a possibility to fix this?

This will be very useful. Thanks!

I LOVE this mod soooo much I'm advertising it on my sim page "pc452000" and the Sims forums.. I can't thank VG enough for finally making a mod worthy of the highest praises.. I LOVE this File, Finally Starlight shores can have those weird Live venues put in w/o having 10 tiles BLANK..

This is Perfect!!! Thanks So Much!!! :D

@TickleOnTheTum: I've updated the mod with the new functionality (i.e. optionally removing default EA lot sizes). If you've already added all the lot icons, you'll probably want to keep that package and just update the script and the additional line in the xml. For the xml change simply add the line for clearing the existing lot sizes (see overview) to your xml resource. For the script change, you need to download the latest version of the mod and open the package. Click on the S3SA resource and then in the context menu "Export dll". Then open your old package and import the new dll you just exported into your old package. On the right pane with the resource info, it should then say velocitygrass_AddAnyLotSize, Version=1.0.3.0.

@ikkefikke: Do other package mods work for you? Try double-checking the steps in the install instructions linked under that tab.

@TickleOnTheTum: I'm glad it worked

can you use this in the already made worlds I am about to download it and would like to know could you pm me if it is please and thank you....

@silverio1975: It can be used in existing or new savegames, for EA worlds or user made ones. I hope this answers your question.
