Original idea, thank you for sharing, it looks very well done. I like that sims can have a whole view of the pool by the windows.

there are no stairs...so just click where you want to go and your sims will do the rest

if you noticed i've hollowed out most of the building to allow it to run faster on most PCs. so if you want to get to any other floor just put floor boards first on that floor. your sims can get there just by clicking. I made sure the elevator works on each floor before taking out the floors.

The pools actually on the ground floor, not the roof. But it can be seen through the basement windows.

So does that mean that you need Open for buisness in order for the elevator to work? If so then you should have posted that you only need Nightlife for this mod to work, you should have included the other EP so that people don't get confused.

hi,
Yes, the elevator works with the base game too, that's why I used it so that you can enjoy an elevator even if you don't own open for business or any EP for that matter. But I had nightlife installed at the time i made it so I had to put that info there. Hope this helps.

Are there tutorials that shows how to make customized high rise buildings that are livable? And are there ways to build more floors than 8 floors? I want to build an apartment building that looks almost like the New York City Authority buildings such as the Polo Grounds projects.
