EA House of Fail Part 1

MATY used to have this challenge where you would take a prebuilt Maxis house and rebuild it following certain guidelines. In reviewing my houses to put up here, I definitely see improvement from the first one to the last one. However I'm too lazy to organize them, so you get them in random order.

Please note, part of the challenge was to use Maxis content only. I am also not a very inspired decorator so some of them are rather sparse. Also, I have all EP's & SP's so use clean installer if you download.

EA House of Fail Part 2

More Houses! This time 2 alternate versions based on 10 Oak Street. If you know the original version of this house it is a tiny little square, one room 'cottage'? on a fairly small lot. So it was a bit of a challenge.

10 Oak Street V.1 - Intended for a single sim, or a couple but definitely not a family!

Welcome!

Welcome! After lurking for many years on various Sim Forums [either as ajcrawly or aziraphale], I've decided to start my own little journal.

I play both Sims 2 and Sims 3 and have recently been creating for both [mostly houses]. So please note the following:

For Sims 2, I have all EPs & SP's and I use Pescado's mods. Clean Installer is being stubborn and not working on my computer, so I can't guarantee that there aren't some tagalongs. [I do remove my CC folder prior to building so there shouldn't be any CC, but I believe a mod or two may attach itself?]

For Sims 3, I also have all EP's & SP's up to Supernatural [as it isn't out yet]. I don't play with CC in Sims 3 [other than default skin/eyes]. But I do use Awesomemod, Anach's mods, NRAS mods, and misc. sliders.


Comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated so don't be afraid to leave one.

Oh and in regards to my creations - they are yours to do with as you will, but please, NO PAYSITES!

EA House of Fail Part 3

Back again with 2 more houses. The first one was originally the Curious Brother's house, but I was inspired by the season [Halloween] and the fact that we had just bought Apartment Life - so witches! The second house was big to begin with so I just made it bigger. You have been warned...

First up is 4 Danish Drive, the revamped Curious Brother's house.

EA House of Fail Part 4

Alright, only one house this time. But it happens to be one of my favorites. I drew inspiration for this house from the Shinra Mansion in FF7. I thought that given the constrains of the challenge it turned out fairly well. I know the floor plan is not completely accurate, but as the challenge was to make it liveable I had to alter some rooms. [I do intend to build the Shinra Mansion sometime, but that will most likely include CC.]

Here is 407 Edgewater, Shinra'd
