I don't download Sims 3 houses because I have tons of cc. But your lot is so amazing that I have to add a huge Thank you for this masterpiece. It's so well balanced, so perfectly built, so beautiful that I am lost in admiration.

It is gorgeous, looks like you took lots of care with the details and an enjoyable tomb. Would this work in WA worlds too? That is the only time I get my sims into tomb raiding. :D

Thank you everyone. I am particularly proud of this lot.

To answer your question lewisb40 Gilgolem Castle is designed to work in the WA worlds. It was built for and tested in France. When you download this lot it has been saved as a "secret tomb". To initially place the lot you will need to pre-load either France, China, or Egypt in build mode and convert an empty 64 x 64 lot into a "secret tomb". Once the lot is placed, reload your normal world and save. Only then should you travel to the world where you placed the lot with a sim. The reason why you need to place the tomb lot before you travel is to force all the loot to spawn. In testing previous tombs I learned that some tomb objects (ie: one time loot, treasure chests that require keystones to be opened and chains on doors) do not spawn correctly unless the lot has been converted to a "tomb" classification and then loaded in game.

Also, once the lot has been initially placed and loaded for loot, it can be converted from a "secret tomb" lot to a normal community lot and placed in your sims home world as well.

For those who do not know how to do change the tombs lot type here are the cheat codes that were used:
crtl-shift-C (to bring up the menu)
testingcheatsenabled true (to enable the cheat codes)
Then select "Secret Tomb" from the Lot Type drop down menu on the empty 64 x 64 lot
Place lot

To convert Gilgolem Castle from a "hidden tomb" lot to a normal community lot place the lot using the cheats typed above, then
crtl-shift-C (to bring up the menu again)
enablelotlocking true (to allow lot to be edited)
Click on Gilgolem Castle as if you were to buy/edit it. There should be a picture of a closed lock. Click on the closed lock and it should change to opened.
Then select "Community Lot" from the lot type drop down menu
Save the converted lot to your menu and place as normal in your home world

This looks fantastic! I can't wait to try it out. I might even put it in Midnight Hollow. It looks like it would fit perfectly there. Thanks for taking the time to create and share such a wonderfully detailed tomb.

The residential version is almost done as well. The inside was almost completely overhauled. I should be ready to post soon. The residential version will be in a separate upload and is suppose to exist in an earlier timeline than the tomb.


Oh and the residential version will not be including any store content.
