Amazing lot, plastix, the outdoor restaurant and the garden are so cute. I'm always surprized when I see how many objects, walls and floors by Maxis can be used for building with such great result, I'd better to come back to the orginal maxis catalogue!!
Thank you very much. Kiss and ciao.

I absolutely adore this set! I've downloaded every lot and am currently building a downtown with them. One question though, are the hacks included?

Huh? What hacks?

ah, you mean the ones I linked to? Community sleep? No, of course not ... that's why I added the pointers =).

No idea, really ... Backdoor Lane 19 and 21 are basically good to go, I just need to sort out the screenshots and such; after that, I can't really tell. I already have the next series in the pipeline, you see ... but I don't want to make promises in either direction =). You can expect 3 or 4 more in any case, that's all I can tell for sure at the moment.

Me too! It's actually really fun to take the Maxis catalogue as a challenge -- try and find something to do with it, I mean. In this case it was the wallpapers, those flowery ones that came with OfB, that the whole thing is based upon, can you tell? It took forever to decorate, though. I hate how they have all those mini-series and nothing fits in with the rest. But a lot of the Maxis objects are really good if you don't take your own taste too seriously -- I've recently thought I should get Uni, for the bubble blowers, so that I can make an appropriately bizarre "Alice in Wonderland" kind of venue with all that psychedelic stuff -- giant pink teddy bears, etc =)

Hi plasticbox I create a lot of sims 2 movies, and i would love to use the exterior of this lot. Would that be ok?

Thanks for your time Mark

Your lots never cease to amaze me. :0

And personally, I prefer lots with little or no custom content at all. It's annoying when creators just stuff a bunch of custom furniture into their lots, when I don't even want to use them!

Thanks a million for making your series, and they're appreciated (because I hate making lots). I can only play smaller lots (3x3 is the max I'll go, and even then my game lags most of the time), and the ones you've made are wonderful.

Keep up the great work!

Love this as I love all of your lots and neighbourhoods. I was wondering how/if this particular lot works with OfB? I was thinking of an Urban Vacation Neighbourhood.

All of the lots you create are so clean. I'm going to use this for my Family Sim. Thanks!

This would make an awesome elderly community home. I made one in my game but it's really eh... compared to this. It's fun playing all the elders together in one home, but I couldn't make the home anywhere near as nice as this. This would be perfect. I love all your houses and Middleground too. Merry Christmas by the way!

I don't care if it is 7 years later and Pbox has moved on from simming. This lot is stunning and I must say so.

Not too big, not too small. Looks easy to play and sort of modestly elegant.

Is it sad that I keep looking at your Backdoor Lane and downloading the ones I think I can make into unique dorms?
