Vampire covenhouse with secret basement mausoleum
But I maintained the idea that it would be pretty cool for vamps to have their own little secret annexe in the basement, decorated to vampire taste, where they could do vampire things (like sleep in coffins and watch TV) undisturbed.
This is a huge house. It costs about 350000. It has 3 above ground floors plus the basement annexe which would easily cater for 4 simvamps without them using the rest of the house at all! But if I am going to share something, I figured it might as well be a big something. It is playably furnished in an elegant old-fashioned style. It could be dressed more, but for me that involved a lot of custom objects (gargoyles, gothic paintings etc) so I shall leave that to you. The outside also looks far better with white recolours of the lamps, but I have no idea where I got them from so I left the in the maxis colour to save you from having to go through and sort out a lot of blue lamps!
The basement stairway is hidden behind a secret bookcase door in the ground floor library, it uses the dead space around the fireplace (I put a skeleton in the other side of the dead space, bricked in ). All sims can use it, unfortunately. Perhaps if I can find some suitable recolours of myne doors I might restrict access to the library to house members to keep the annexe really private, but it's ok for now.
This pack is lot only. Customs you will need are......

About Me
Primarily I'm a builder, I do some recolouring etc, but I know where my limits are! I love creating beautiful lots that function well in game. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, and a stickler for details, I could upload a lot more, but I wouldn't be happy with it.
I tend to go through phases of particular styles or types of lot, I take a concept and do it to death, selecting the best bits for upload before moving on.
I got really fed up with Sims when a folder of over 40,000 dowloads crippled my gameplay, so I went for a clean install, with no CC - well, a very limited amount of CC, and no build or buy mode stuff, which means that my lots as of August 2007 are all CC free!
Being a Sims addict I have every EP and Stuff pack. Be aware that if you are missing an EP, my lots WILL CRASH YOUR GAME! This is not my fault! EP lots are not backwards compatible! If however you are only missing a Stuff pack, my spies inform me that the lot will work, but you may be missing some content, and have to do some redecorating/furnishing.
As my lots are clean they are unlikely to cause problems in your game. If there is a problem with a lot please let me know, but not before considering the following:
1) Do you have all the correct EPs installed? Due to some confusion regarding stuff pack requirements and combos I would suggest that you apply this to SPs and EPs.
2) Have you installed the lot correctly in your game (I recommend clean installer)?
3) Have you installed any CC or other lots at a similiar time - are you sure the problem is my lot?
4) Have you checked the FAQs on this site for the most likely problems.
5) Do you have any global hacks or custom careers installed? I have seen the effects these have for myself and would suggest you temporarily remove them and test your game without them to see if you can reproduce the problem.
If you have completed the above steps I am more than happy to help you with your problem.
If you have any questions pertinent to a particular download, please ask in the comments of that DL so that others can benefit from the answers, it saves me a lot of PM time!
If you have questions about my work but not specific to a download please feel free to PM me, but please do not use me as a search engine for the FAQs/Wiki. You will get an answer a lot faster if you look for yourself!
I will take requests by PM. Requests are fulfilled faster when they are within my usual style, so do look at my uploads and consider whether your request would sit well amongst them. If you like my work and want something specific, or even have an vague concept you would like to see worked on, I would love to hear about it.
