Title: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Sept Lot Suggestions [SUGGESTIONS CLOSED!]
Post by: yuichen on Aug 30, 2015, 04:23PM
Feel free to suggest any Maxis/EA base game lots here and we'll vote for September's challenge later on when I add a poll. The runner-up can be used in the next one, unless you guys decide you'd like to recommend others.

ETA: Can those who plan to participate list which EPs and SPs you have so any future choices can reflect it? Thank you :)

I'd like to suggest the following for Sims2:

73 Road to Nowhere, Strangetown
It's ugly and a complicated design, so I think it would actually be a challenge to make it nice looking.

11 Oat Street, Pleasantview
A tiny little cabin in the woods not far from the water tower. It's such a small space to work with and could be interesting to make something unique.

Oh I have not suggestions, lol but those both look like houses I would love to see remixed.

Oh that reminds me, I took pics of one in Sims4 I thought might be interesting. It's not an ugly or weird place but I feel like the big porch section could produce some pretty interesting things.

This might be interesting.  Um..you want us to just say what we have in this thread.


I have all of TS2 not the ultimate collection.

I have ts4 but most likely not play with that considering I don't have custom content only mods (that's cc huh, lol).

That's alright, you don't have to use cc :) But okies, noted about the Sims2 stuff.

I don't think I would enter for TS4 because I don't play it like I do TS2, but who knows maybe.

I found some Sims3 houses that might be interesting to make over. I apologize in advance for the shitty laptop graphics and build mode screens. I didn't want to move anyone in to take pics.

I would love to see that as a TS2 lot. :)

Which one?

I think I'm gonna close up suggestions and put the poll in on Monday, so if you or London have any you'd like to suggest, do it soon :) I've also mentioned this challenge on my sims tumblr so more people may be coming in to join us.

The last lot you posted.  I honestly don't have any valuable input besides uhs and ahhs.
Title: Re: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Lot Suggestions
Post by: yuichen on Sep 11, 2015, 06:49PM
Oh okay. Don't see any reason why it couldn't be made in Sims2 :)
Title: Re: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Lot Suggestions
Post by: ranabluu on Sep 13, 2015, 10:27PM
Well that's true.  I can't wait to see your finished project :D.

Suggestions are closed! You may now vote for 1 lot per game. Please vote for all games even if you do not play it! I'd rather there be an agreement on it than just to pick one myself.

Hi all
I just getting around to the posts, I will take a look and get back to you guys soon :) and I am playing with the  ultimate collection I am a Sims 2 person :)
Title: Re: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Lot Suggestions [SUGGESTIONS CLOSED!]
Post by: MsSimmer on Sep 20, 2015, 09:33PM
I had a chance to look around :)
I like two houses in the Pleasantville town sims 2
190 Sims Lane and 210 Wright Way which most likely is a challenge within its self because of the size, but it will leave room for your imagination.
Title: Re: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Lot Suggestions [SUGGESTIONS CLOSED!]
Post by: yuichen on Sep 20, 2015, 11:15PM
Those are both pretty good options. We can add them to the next one seeing that the voting for September has already started :)

aww ok :)

Post by: yuichen on Sep 24, 2015, 02:51PM
Considering it's for September I thought I better actually have the post up in the month, lol, so the poll has been closed after a week and a half. You of course don't even have to start now; mess around in game when you feel like it.
Title: Re: Maxis Makeover Building Challenge Lot Suggestions [SUGGESTIONS CLOSED!]
Post by: MsSimmer on Sep 24, 2015, 03:22PM
Ok so base on the poll results ------ for sims 2 it will be road to nowhere :)

Yes. I'm about to move the thread to this area after a few edits.
