i need to expand my store and organize it a little better... its going to be 3 separate stores that join together. I just got back into making furniture and i want a separate area kind of like a mall but not a mall more of a plaza. though i am putting in a parking lot. I have cars damn it and i want to drive 'em

As for Schmooze. ugh i have had it for almost 4 years. not sure if it will come back down from the sky and i don't have the heart to delete it.
This sounds really good!

If you have the Prims available what is stopping you making multiple builds,
I have Ground level , 1000ft, 2000ft, 3000ft, and 4000ft.

at 3000, i have a builders platform that covers my whole area 120m x 120m missing 1/4 with only 2 prims for the platform (and i am sure you can get a 120x120x0.5 megaprim )
you could even get away with builds at 500ft splits.....

Give it a go...

You can if you use Meerkat viewer,, you can select the prims you want and right click and select Backup (but you have to be the creator so that makes megaprims a pain)

well orginally the old bridge was supposed to connect my house and the sim. o.O. i scratched that idea. i am homeless

i started to think about country back roads .tonight i tried to pull it off. i did it the road here is just a small part and its a curvy little bugger. the road will go from the old bridge to the back of the sim over a large bridge that over looks the park and down the other side.. i am calling it "old fart's road" tomorrow or today i would actually like to finish the back part of the sim. i need a new gcard because i really want to see shadows in sl

Once you are out of Draw distance the new platform cannot be seen, so you can have multiple builds - atmospheres at multiple levels (I hate trying to terraform anyway)

its a great idea but i just can't do platforms. i enjoy terra forming, allowing the land to become part of the build. yes its a pain in the ass to do, tonight i spent two hours just terra forming a small section. the end result is what makes me keep going

I love the way the sim is coming Tya. Had a great time during the tour!

I'll be ripping up your roads when they're done for sure.

Hope you don't mind, but I snapped some pics:

Its done


After I had the final sale for 2009, i shut the sim down, the first time in 5 years. I sat trying to finish the mess i created for myself. There comes a point in every builders mind, this isn't working, even though you try your hardest to make it work.

I took a moment to look over my sim and see what i could salvage. I did notice while the sim was open before, many visitors would hang out by the river/back side of the sim.

Well, push forward a mental crazy moment, I deleted 3/4 of the sim, including the store, though i did move all the product up in the air first.

I decided to keep the back end of the sim and continue this theme through out. The biggest challenge was incorporating my store into the build instead of sticking out like a sore thumb.

As a part of the re-opening of T-Town there will be a photo contest.
