Moi's Le Jardin de Fleur v.5


Lot Name: Le Jardin de Fleur v.5


Description:



A. Brief Intro:

Le Jardin de Fleur is a phyto-museum (phyto = plant) community lot. It has an accessible big white semi-transparent museum and three accessible small coloured flower-shaped museums. An open buffet-dining area, a big public washroom, and a BBQ area are there.

The story behind is about: In the certain point of the future, no longer can plants survive in planet QE without nurturing them due to extreme environmental changes... So, in order to keep them alive, they have to grow in/on a specialised greenhouse which provides conditions for their survival! Yeah, it may sound a down-tone, but changes can be made, who knows what next in the story?

F. File Decompression & Install Tips:
F0. Whether the furnished or the unfurnished version, only 7-zip (.7z) has been used unless specified.
F1. unzip the zip downloaded file with zip-supported compressor or above or else by right-clicking and "extract...(whichever way)"
F2. you'll find a file with an extension ".7z" or called 7-zip. just decompress/extract it as if it's "rar" or "zip" when WinRAR >=3.41, 7-zip-manager >=3, IZArc >=3.5, power archiver >=9, ZipGenius >=6 or else... by right-clicking and "extract...(whichever way)"
F3. double click on the sims2pack to open it. To install it with Clean Installer is recommended coz you can choose what to install to avoid unwanted or redundant contents installed into your game system.
F4. Installation of a lot without ensuring the presence of the corresponding terrain paints can be destructive to the lot files.
F5. [No restart of the game] is needed to [install a lot in sims2pack file] and [access the installed lot @ "house bin"]. The trick is by any means to have your neighbourhood screen reload. Say, entering a lot and go back to the neighbourhood screen, or switching to another neighbourhood. After a neighbourhood screen has reloaded, the installed lot will appear in the house bin without the game restart. This is true when the Clean Installer is used.



G. Play-tips:
G1. Whenever geting a new house, you can scan and choose for things in the package with Clean Installer before installation
G2. You can ALWAYS check the playability of the lots to your system @ lot-building mode in the neighbourhood screen before playing them.
G3. Should you need, you can play-test it with the cheat "BoolProp TestingCheatsEnabled (True/false)".
