Finnington - an empty world for your simmies:
Introduction:
I started making this world in February 2011. My idea was to make a lovely town that has expanded its area with a little city. I was very excited for the project, and had quickly made a nice little world with the areas I wanted to have. Then it was time to build.
I laid down the city, and the town area. Then I started on building on the lots and made the shells for the buildings in the town and in the city. I soon had a half built world, with a lot of buildings that had the exterior done, but were empty/in process in the inside.
At that point I had a total loss of interest on making the world, and I started on working in some other projects. The world files sat on my CAW-folder for weeks, and I started to feel bad about me being so unable on continuing the work with the world.
I think I actually got quite depressed. I lost interest and will to do anything that included building. I tried to start a new world project to see if it was just Finnington that annoyed me, but I failed miserably. Multiple times. I was ready to throw all my world-files to a trash bin, and give up on world making completely.
I have to be very thankful for having so many friends in the simming community, who care for me and like my work. One of them gave an encouraging prep talk to me in a private conversation in chat, and that made me feel a whole lot better about my work again.
I still had lost the interest on working with this world, but I had an idea. Why don't I finish all the work in the actual world, and then delete all the lots that I had made. After all, many simmers like me actually like building lots themselves better, than using lots made by other people. So I'm proud to present you my world, with empty lots. Now everyone can make it look the way they want!
Thank you for everyone that commented on the world on the Creator feedback-Forum, and tested it. I'm sorry I couldn't make it a full world with finished lots. I hope that you are not too disappointed on me.
