MATY HOOD CONTESTWelcome to the first (my first) Neighborhoods contest
Rules1) NO CUSTOM CONTENT !
you can use all objects that there are in all expansion (UNI, OFB, PETS, SSN) and "stuff" packet. (like FFS, CELEB., H&M)
but no custom stuff, the only one admitted is the
Invisible Driveway & Extensions2) THE LOTS
Try to respect the description of the lots, and you
must stay in the price range declared.
3) PLAYABILITY we suppose that at the end of the contest someone will play with it, so all house and community lots must have to be 100% working and playable.
That mean for example
- "no locked doors"
just 'cause it's nice on that place but the sims are unable to use it.
- "no too small corridor"
there are a long corridor but it's large 1 tile and 2 sims will stuck if they meet there.- "no unable to use objects"
i've placed a vase on a combination of other objects but the sims say he is unable to use/watch it4) You have to present the lots with screenshots. Please made the it downloadable too, don't know where host it, you can use
www.unbase.com (it ask for a payment subscription but ignore it, it's free)
if there more than one player for the same lot, the best one will be chosen by the forum, and if we'll have a balanced vote JM will chose for us
just an info.:
the lots with just original stuff will be pretty small, compressed with WinRar or 7Zip they should be about 1mb, the simplest house will be about 500kb, so you can play this contest also if you have a 56k connection 5) Have Fun
