A beautiful world, thank you. I love the colours and all those nice flat lots!

Ja kyllä meitä suomalaisia taitaa täällä olla yksi jos toinenkin.

Ahaha, thank you I'm proud to be a Finn, hauskaa tavata toinen mokoma



No, all the lots in the world are empty. You have to either download rabbithole lots that are the size that fit my lots, or you can build your own.



Ok, this is second or third crash report... Can you tell me what games you have installed, are you fully patched, and do you normally have trouble with sims 3?


I only have basegame and high end loft stuff, I am fully patched, and no, I usually don't have problems with my game. =/

Please read the World description and earlier comments before asking questions

Changed game requirement due the crashes people where having, that are caused by not having WA/Ambitions

I tested with AGS, and for my disappointment, the world does crash when loading if you don't have WA/Ambitions, clearing caches does not help. Makes me sad, but what can I do... So, bad news for people without those two games, problem solved.

Oh too bad, this world looks really amazing! :/
You couldn't... well you know, if you have some time left, make a "No-EP-Version" of the map? I don't know whether this is as easy as it sounds...

That would mean replacing the bridges and half or more of the plants and deco (that make the world look like what it looks like), which is, a lot of work. So I don't really find that as an option :/
Have to live with the limitations of the game compatibilities.

I already suspected this... that's really a pity. Well, it seems like I'll have to look for some other good worlds that work on my computer.
Anyway, thanks for being so helpful with you answers.

I love it, and I'm building for it now, I actually want it completed before generation comes out..... I plan on uninstalling late night once generations drop, so I'm wondering will the world I built be effected by that. I have all the other ep's that are required...but I'm really not getting any fun gameplay with LN, I mean yes clubs are fun, but none of the sims go to them. So I figure I can make this world with fewer community lots so they will stay occupied with more sims........

You can find the in-game rabbit holes, like the school, etc. when you open the world and enter edit town. There are four icons at the lower left, which include the world editor. Once in world editor, select the landmark/buildings tab and choose your rabbit holes. If you want to build your own rabbit holes, you will need the custom rabbit holes available on MTS to make them work the same way the game rabbit holes do. Hope this helps!

I do not have any rabbit holes in this area, my tab only says landmarks. I have stonehenge, ruins, RR crossings, a wrecked car, etc. I cannot find the school, science building, etc. What am I missing?

I have every EP.

Thank you for your beautiful world. You are so very talented but I know how hard it can be when it what needs to still be done seems endless. I'm glad you decided to unveil your world!

I finally got it! After 10 tries and reading the instruction over at the Riverblossom Hills download I did it. Here's how:

Change all file names to part1, part2, part3
Using 7-zip, extract the first rar only
Install the resulting Sim3pack

It is wonderful. I think I'll turn it into a medieval/steampunk world. I removed all the cranes and I'm ready to build. You did a beautiful job on the sculpting, layout and roads. Thank you so much for sharing.

To locate your rabbitholes, go to edit town, then find a community lot and enter buy/build mode. Rabbitholes are located in build mode, there is a little icon of a building and if you hover over it, it says "community objects". Rabbitholes are located there.
