This amazing house (and others like it) is the reason I had to buy myself a new computer with specs more conducive to smooth play. I love this house, it is gorgeous and I can hardly wait to get it into my game and move in my fortune sims!

Mods rock my sox.

Absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to move in some Sims.

Can I ask - how do you make furniture and other objects diagonal in the first place? I've been trying for a while and haven't been able to manage.

It's a cheat. Press Ctrl-Shift-C to open the cheat window and enter the following code:

boolprop allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true

Change it to false to turn the cheat off.

To rotate objects diagonally, press the < or > keys to turn it until it is diagonal. Be careful though, as some objects will not work well when rotated diagonally (especially bar counters)--I would playtest a house with diagonal furniture to be sure that it works correctly.

Hope that helps!

Your creativity absolutely blows me away.. I have been looking at lots of houses to get ideas for my own game and you have really sparked my imagination.. I only wish my computer was better equiped, even small houses can sometimes slow down the works. But I had to tell you how much I admire your work..
Beautiful, inventive, original, incredible..
Thanks for the inspiration...

This is an absolutely wonderful and breath-taking house for my sims. The only problem is, I can't play it because of the FFP. Like the Cordillera, could you make a Clean version? I have installed the clean version of the Cordillera and have enjoyed it as much as your other creations. Besides this problem, your creative and realistic houses are very beautiful.

I think that you can still play this house without FFP. Try installing it and replace any flashing blue items (stuff from FFP) with new items of your choice. As far as I know, installing a house that just requires a stuff pack won't crash your game like installing a house that requires an actual expansion does.

If you try this and it doesn't work, let me know and I will see about making another version of it.
