Updated: 22nd Sep 2023 at 6:29 PM - Update lot for 64-bit Mac
Currie Barracks, Canadian Forces Base Calgary, Alberta. Officially closed in 1998. I spent a few years affiliated with this base, and seeing as I wanted a nice base in my game, I built this. My tribute to CFB Calgary

The base includes: Military Police Shack (includes 2 small cells for sims you might not like!) Mess Hall, NCO Barracks, Officer's Barracks, Parade Square, and Drill Hall (which includes the entrance to the underground rabbithole).
It has been tested like crazy but of course if anything should come up, please comment and let me know. The rabbithole worked just fine and my sims had fun cruising around when not on duty playing in the kitchen or sleeping in the barracks. If a sim in my game ticked me off.....they got sent here! he he

This is the front gate, the best replication I could muster of the real thing.

**UPDATE: I have altered and play-tested this lot to be compatible with the 64-bit version of the Sims 3 that runs on Mac Metal. The original lot caused a graphics rendering issue (thumbail is below) that I prefer to avoid. I tested the lot with enable object hiding on and off and saw no red screen. The changes are:

1) Almost all of the furnishings and decorations were removed from all buildings. A treadmill and weight machine are in the hangar on the second level. One room on the second floor of the barracks still contains a bunk and barrack box. The guard shack was left untouched.

2) The office building was completely demolished and removed. A tree stands in its place.

3) A few windows from the backs of the buildings needed to be removed.

4) The mess hall and MP shack are "shells", no items are inside.

5) The "horse" on the front gate was removed.

6) As most of the items were removed, no store content is needed for this lot. Game items only.

As all machines may be different, should you encounter any "red screen" issues please let me know. I'll try to help if I can.




Lot Size: 64x64
Lot Price: 222000

Have fun and enjoy! o_O
