Picked Upload! This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
For everyone who always wanted to build nice little houses for/with just the base game, here's a few templates for you to work with. They are available in two directions, North and South, in case anyone else cares about consistent lighting -- in the "South" ones, the sun comes from the back left corner of the lot, in the "North" ones from front right. These are the two directions that allow for 90° rotated driveways. Note that the direction of the sun in neighbourhood view is 180° from that in lot view .. this is an old maxis bug, I can't do anything about that.
Playtested for missing portals etc, everything worked fine. These are based on the 2x1 lot available in the LotExpander thread, and on the 2x2 lot by Numenor that comes with the BaseGameStarter.
For other sizes, namely 1xN and Nx1, see here (Mini lots by MaryLou) and here (Lot Expander).
(Btw I have no idea why the North and South versions are so different in size, or why an empty lot has to have 700+k to begin with .. there's only empty walls on the lots, nothing else (I put them there so that you can see the size/sun direction at one glance).)
Lot Size: 2x2
Lot Price: N/A

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
