2-Click Foundation
No Slope Basement Minimal CC
His agent had just called this morning.
The market was slim, but there was one new listing that looked interesting. "It's small, Chester. ...Not the sort of architecture you usually go for. Says it's - minimal?"
"Is it less than $100K?"
"Yup. Sure is."
"It's mine. Text me the addy; I'll be there in a few - " *soft click*
Let's get this party started! (Said no one actually, but in his geeky way, he thought it real hard!)
Sadly, after just a few minutes of all "that" - Chester found himself up here:
And he was very happy, smiling quietly to himself.
Please scroll through all the above pictures to see everything this house has to offer. The house is fully furnished and lightly decorated. All appliances, plumbing, and lighting are included. The stove, fireplace, and grill all have a smoke alarms. The front door is burglar alarmed. All three living levels have telephones.
This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here. The package has been cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.
There is parking for one vehicle in the driveway. The driveway is sideways, so there are no driving animations of the car leaving/entering the lot.
This lot has a 2-Click Foundation and a No-Slope Basement made with Mootilda's Grid Adjuster - Thank YOU MOO
As noted in picture #08_Main (above) Large Dogs can NOT enter a 2-Click Foundation without using HL's SimplePassageModularStairs. The stairs are invisible and their location is noted in that picture. If, for some reason, you don't want to allow large dogs - just untick the box for the stairs in the Clean Installer before installing the lot. NOTE: The stairs cannot be added later - without using the GridAdjusterand completely redoing the foundation/basement levels.
NOTE: The green living chairs in the basement family room MAY need adjusting/moving before anysim will use them.
Possibly used but NOT included - so, you may need to GO get it:
--- I use the Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors ALL the time. (If you followed that link, it's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon @ MATY) This 'bundle' lives back in my Bins folder so it doesn't have the CC star. If you ever enter one of my builds and find it has blank/unpapered walls/floors, it is because I used ones from this bundle and forgot to mention it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)
Definitely used and NOT included - you MUSTgo get this before installing the lot:
- Unlevel Wall - #90 by Numenor @ MTS2 - used to allow the clerestory windows to work around the living/dining room. Some people weren't sure how to install this wall... Click the info button down below to see how I did it
Custom Content Included:
- Simple Passage Modular Stair by HugeLunatic (HL) @ Sims2Artists - these do need a script file so follow the link and make sure you install them properly!
- Window Intl - mid by Huge Lunatic (HL) @ MTS2
- Window Intl - Square low by SimtopiX @ MTS2
- Modern Fence Set by lirunchik @ BPS (originally), now hosted at TSRNOTE: I have included this in the package because 1) I really hate sending anyone to T$R to get something, and 2) lirunchik's policy for this particular Modern Fences Set clearly states that it can be shared within uploaded houses.
Lot Size: 2x2 Lot Price (furnished): $84,816
Standard mods I use that are not necessary nor included - but were probably used whilst building/photo-ing/prepping this house for upload...
If you need help installing Numenor's Unlevel Wall #90, click this info button:
If you don't already have it, go get and install the Scriptorium by Numenor - it makes it super easy to install Modular Stairs, Fireplaces, Custom Walls, Lights/lamp mods (You can read about the what/why/how of it on his post) To sum up - all these items use scripts to work properly in the game - and that means they have an extra .txt file along with the regular .package file. And, you don't just dump it all into your Downloads folder. Once you install the Scriptorium, it will install all the other stuff for you.
Then - go get 90_UnleveledWall also by Numenor. (This wall is amazing!) Numenor cautions on his post that some people have experienced problems with this wall; but, I've used it since he first released it in 2006, and I have NEVER had a problem with it - I've used it through various EP/SP disc installs on XP, Vista, 7, 8, and now on Windows 10 with UC.
Unpack the zip file and find two items:
90_UnleveledWall.txt
90_UnleveledWall.package
In your DL folder, find the Scriptorium shortcut labeled "Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches" and drop the .txt file into it.
(If you open the shortcut, you'll see it's path goes to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\Scripts\Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches - if you have the UC)
Numenor advises that you put BOTH the .txt and the .package in the shortcut folder. However, my 90_UnleveledWall.package file is in my documents/Downloads/zHacks folder - always has been, and, like I said, I've never had a problem with it.
==========================================================
I use Niol/Moi's Roof Shader for brighter roofs
And, HW/Honeywell's A Little Greyer: Roof Trim Defaults
Then, if it's a Bespoke Roof recolor - it will be THESE adjusted versions by The Llama Park/Tumblr that you see used in the pictures. (However, what you get in the packaged file, will either be the plain EA roof or the straight, un-modified Bespoke roof from the set here on MTS2.)
Maranatah's White Wall Top texture replacement
Moo's Turn On/Off Lights
Menaceman's Lunatech Lighting Fix
BeosBoxBoy's no-red-pause-mod
Nopke's Go Under Spiral Stairs mod for proper spiral stair usage
And, of course, everyone needs Numenor's CEP and SEP!
I also use FRAPs to take in-game pictures, and PhotoShop to clean/collage said pictures.
And, I highly recommend using gummilutt's Invisible Medicine Cabinet to add features to any mirror - as per her policy, it's not used or included in this lot.

Install Instructions
Basic Download and Install Instructions:
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
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. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. :luff:
