Well If we don't change the structure of the building maybe everything else can be changed; windows, doors, that arch that no one likes lol. Just don't change the placement of stuff and it should still be challenging enough.

Just for the record, Xander, I love the arch in the downstairs bathroom, I would just move it around the side. Then you can fit a bath, toilet and sink in the bathroom. Snap on the kitchen Lee, that is where mine is. Tongue I thought of a way I can decorate without costing anything, technically it's not cheating because CC is allowed, however I will not clone and reprice all the Maxis items. Smile

Um well, I DID do that already - the upstairs doors are all justadoors. I kept the walnuts downstairs though and short of getting a CC double arch that french arch is the cheapest double arch in game anyway. Same for the windows and I like the Mauritania door.

I also removed the banisters from the middle of the staircases. No idea if that counts as cheating.

Re the arch - we all have little obsessions - its not the arch I hate - its the extra light needed that makes me sad (they got the bulb on a string) and that because of the window placement I can't put a cheap shower in there against the corner wall.

@Shell - same thing as Lev - twould be using cheaty CC. I know a lot of builders put a sim in the house for a few days to depreciate the build and then kick out the sim and do the buy stuff. Cheaters.

Smile See now, that is why I said "I will not clone and reprice all the Maxis items." I didn't know you could put Sims in and the price would depreciate, WOW, I learn new stuff everyday.

Now down to business, using stuff from the Base Game, University and Apartment Life, changing the windows to Lee's BreezeLess windows, using macarossi's plants and rocks, Rebecaha's smaller Breadfruit trees & bunk bed mattress, Numenor and MaryLou's coat rack and Invisible Sauna Soothe Wall Light by me (hey, I hate Maxis lights and use very little CC, so I always use invisible lights) I managed to do it for §24,682. Never had a Sim order pizza but I figure I have enough left over for one.

Looks good - yea, of course - those breezeless are REALLY cheap windows - was a good idea to swap them all out.

I see your sims have some luxury items in there - ART - FANCY COOKER - A TREE -

And easily in budget. Nice one Smile

HOWEVER - loss of 4 million points for not doing all the rooms Tongue
