TESTERS WANTED: Rainbow Beach - No EP Required
Type: Community
Creator: Saphos
Take a stroll down the boardwalk, or a dip in the ocean at Rainbow Beach!
This lot is the result of many hours of hard work. Unfortunately, it suffers from two tragic glitches.
The main problem is that despite a cliff seperating the swimmable water from the beach (in other words, the sand on the beach is NOT diving board accessible), the game mistakenly thinks that the entire lot is a swimming pool. This means that when your sims visit the lot, other sims are swimming through the sand, and even the boardwalk. The will stand to interact with objects, but otherwise they act as though they are in a pool.
The second problem is less important. The sims swim underwater, treating the sand at the bottom of the modified pool as the top of the water, rather than the water level. This is merely an annoyance and doesn't affect game play.
I am looking for builders and testers to play with my beach. The challenge is to make the beach unswimmable, WITHOUT losing the shoreline. I have played with it for hours and the only solution I could find was to make a cliff rather than a gentle sloping shore, but unfortunately it ruins my shoreline.
Whoever finds the solution, if one is possible, will win fame and a sim fortune in gratitude!
Thank you to everyone who tries, all of your effort is appreciated.
The only custom content included in the package is a texture file I was messing around with. I didn't end up using it, but feel free to use it as you please or redistribute it.
As usual, special thanks to http://mikeinside.modthesims2.com for information and inspiration.
Please do not post this lot to the Exchange, or re-post it without giving me full credit.

Install Instructions
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs.
