TL;DR, now with pictures
Yes, I am remaking my neighborhood, and it's ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
pooklet's fault. (It's really mine, but I'm going to blame them.) I was bitching to them early this morning about how tired I was of matte Maxisy defaults, so they showed me some pretty Buffybot defaults, and of course I jumped on them like the sad, sad little moo-cow I am. Unfortunately, since most of my neighborhood had a custom pale skintone not affected by defaults, I decided starting over would be easier than trying to fix them all with Sim Surgery.
Yay.
Because of the random hack stew that is my game, Inge's stay-things shrub didn't function as it was meant to. I, being unobservant, didn't notice until I'd inadvertantly destroyed three or four meticulously decorated houses, so before destroying this one, I decided to get some pictures.
Yes, another house built by me. You can tell because the layout makes no logical sense but the outside is fairly pretty. Before Neighborhoodmageddon, this was Duke and Koi Szekely's house. He was a mad scientist, she was his vaguely steampunky robot woman (thank goodness Sim Surgery can make servos pretty). They're two of the few sims I plan to recreate in the new neighborhood (which, incidentally, so far looks exactly like my old neighborhood. Sigh).
The patio. I'm particularly proud of this because the windows there actually work as a door. Most likely this is something everyone else already thought of, but it was a big deal for me, which shows you how low my threshhold of pride in myself is. I put the windows in and layered the arch from the same set over them to make a sort of stealth door. The gate they walk through, but I liked how it looks.
The front hall, and some of Duke's schematics for inventions.
Duke's lab.
Kitchen, exclusively Koi's domain. Their first hour in the house Duke set the stove and himself on fire, and was henceforth forbidden to set foot in the kitchen.
There's a bathroom attached to the kitchen, but it is both small and boring, as well as impossible to photograph, so we'll skip it.
Upstairs hall:
The bedroom.
Is it a sim law that all bathrooms be impossible to photograph?
I actually haven't been playing Sims a whole lot lately. I have messed around with some recolors, and I have quite a few for DOT's 8-poster mesh if anyone's interested, but mostly Final Fantasy VIII has been distracting me. I should do something about that.
Speaking of which..
No wai.
