If it was, then the neighbourhood won't work for you at all. If it wasn't, then all of the Seasons stuff will be missing, which is quite a lot.


Indeed, OfB was released before Seasons (if I remember correctly, it would be University, Nightlife, and then OfB).

Ahh, okay. I guess from here on out I'll just be playing with Middleground and all your other lots.

Thanks for the response.

I finally reinstalled Seasons and downloaded this neighborhood.

However, I've noticed that the sidewalk tends to have slices of desert terrain over the gray ones. Is this normal? See the screenshot here.

Yes, that's how it's supposed to look like.

You are absolutely fantastic. I've had this 'hood, and your other two, for quite awhile, but due to problems with my game I never got to REALLY look at them. I'm currently discovering how completely awesome Elsewhere is. Thank you, so much.

This is an amazing neighborhood! Can't believe the amount of creativity that went into building it! I particularly love the island house. Thanks!

adventureman, please post in the "Invisible pond" thread with this (see link in post #1), it's an issue with that object. It's normal for ponds to become unfishable during winter (same behaviour as regular ponds), but they should "unfreeze" in spring. I think you can try deleting and re-buying them, other than that please talk to the creator. Thanks.

Please make an effort to type readable English. I have no idea what you are talking about. The installation instructions are in the "Installation instructions" tab.

Hi, plasticbox. I don't know if you remember me, but i tried to download your neighborhood about a year ago. for some reason, I couldn't. Anyways, I've tried it again and realized what the problems were - the files included in the custom content and neighborhood downloads don't seem to want to be transferred into my folders. After working around those and re-creating my own, I have managed to download everything! I'm so excited and I cannot wait to play this neighborhood!

Hi Plasticbox

First of all, thank you for the wonderful neighborhood. It's absolutely fantastic. I do have a problem though. I followed the proper installation of the CC and Neighborhood, and proceeded to make a sub-neighborhood with this. I downloaded the HoodReplace application as you suggested and copied the information from the N515_Neighborhood.package to the new neighborhood. All the "replace" boxes were already checked, as well as the "Fix Elevation" under Lots. Upon opening the game and the neighborhood, it was all perfect except that there are no lots at all. The terrain, 'hood decorations, etc. are all there except the lots. Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you

A wonderful neighborhood, thank you so much. I have learned a lot about the game from using this neighborhood, I didn't even think of running a school, for example, not to mention using Mootilda's great tools. The links to tools and tutorials made it easy to incorporate this into my existing game as a new downtown. I downloaded this a few weeks ago, and I have not yet moved any sims into any lots, I am still exploring the buildings, many of which are beautifully designed with great attention to detail. They all seem to hang together so well, I am hesitant to change any building, or even furnishings, without very careful thought.

Okay i downloaded your Elsewhere neighborhood and I have a problem with the 5 Panorama Bay house. When my sims are anywhere on the top or middle floor and I try to make them go to the ground floor this speech bubble appears: http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/...ims2problem.jpg and they can't move so I have to use moveobjects_on to move them downstairs. Do you know what that is? And how can i solve this problem?

ilovemyteddy2, that's the column near the landing that is interfering. Maybe you accidentially moved it? It's very finicky, one micron too close and it'll block the stairs. Move it away just a tad, then they should be able to pass.

Sorry, if this has been addressed. But I downloaded the hood, installed it and it has no lots. I was under the impression that this hood came with all the lots? What am I dont incorrect? thank you!

outmask1: It does come with lots. If it fails to install correctly for you, please list in a lot more detail exactly what you are doing, so that others have a chance to figure out what is going wrong.
