I had a request to create the penthouse HQ from Saints Row: The Third so here it is. I have never played Saints row so the specific layout is not exactly the same but it is close. The building stands 33 stories high with the last two reserved for the penthouse, which is stock full of everything needed to throw lavish house parties, including: a rooftop pool, helipad, hot tub, fire pit, outside bar and grill, and a sauna. The lobby consits of three levels with the middle the only one fleshed out. It has a food court, a H&M store, and a grocery store. You will need a mod for NPCs to show up so they can man the cash registers and restaurants (look below). Even the penthouse comes with a DJ who will run the DJ booth 24/7 free of charge. The penthouse is the only apartment on the lot but there are several lower levels that can be transformed into more units. Also, for some reason you will be charged negative rent to the tune of $32,373 each weak (you don't pay the landlord, the landlord pays
you!) I have no idea why this happen, but I guess it is a glitch in the game.
Special Installation instructions
There are a few additional steps you must take in addition to the usual simpack installation in order for this lot to work properly.
1.) Install the simpack like you normally would for any other lot.
2.) Download Numenor's Scriptorium if you don't already have it. Since I
maxed out the game's hard coded wall limit, I had to use Numenor's Custom Walls to build more walls. Installation of these walls requires Scriptorium. Download Scriptorium here:
http://modthesims.info/d/192613 . After you download, unzip and install.
3.) Download and install Numenor's Custom Walls Repository & Index. Download the four types of walls here (ignore the
backup type):
http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=59793 .
Do not put these in your download folder just yet.
4.) Next go into your Sims 2 downloads folder and look for the shortcut "Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches". It is easy to see because it has a blue scroll as an icon. If you have trouble finding it, just search for it in the search bar in the upper right hand corner of the window. Double click it and it will open another folder. Keep this window open.
5.) If you have not already unzipped the custom walls, do so now. Put those files into the Scriptorium folder you just opened.
That should have installed the walls correctly. If you play the lot and there are invisible walls, then you know you installed the walls wrong. If these instructions are not clear enough, use the instructions on both the custom wall download page and the Scriptorium page.
6.) Download a camera with large zooming capabilities. The base game cameras simply can't zoom out far enough to make playing on these lots practical. It is well worth downloading a camera with a large zoom scope, but It's not required and you can keep your old ones if you like. I found the ones by Sophie-David work great:
