The Arena Of Archaeus
This Arena came from a picture of one I saw once, of a Roman arena, that was not Roman style, more Greek, and was most noted for it's stained glass windows, which were one of the first uses of it in windows in Europe. The arena it is based on was built in 406 A.D., but was destroyed in 479 A.D. , and i know nothing else about it, but anyway, history over, here is my upload for the first contest:
I have no idea where the name came from it just came into my head, it is built on a 4X5 lot, and is the best i could do at recreating a Roman arena, but it's stillm not very good. It has 3 floors, the first is accesible through a side-entrance only, which Romans did so the convicts couldn't be seen, and has 8 (I think) cells, which have a gate opening onto the arena floor, so they could be released for fights. The next floor has the main entrance, and is mainly a VIP floor, and there is a corridor round the edge so the common people could not get in.There are only a few benches on each side, but on one side, two small curtain-entranced rooms, which lead onto a small private balcony directly overlooking the arena, where the Emperor could watch a lion fight or similar. The next floor is where people who could afford a seat sit. There are benches round the edge, but only a few, most of the floor is unfurnished, so you can do what you want. The next floor is the roof where people would stand to watch it from high up, there is nothing at all on the roof, except a railing to stop everyone falling off.
Outside, there is a small two storey building, which could become a shop or something, and next to it a small alley leading to the arena ground floor.
On the other side of the entrance, there is a small marble fountain, surrounded by connecting pillars, and hedges
In this lot there is no custom content at all, I also have all Expansions and Stuff Packs, except Celebration and H and M stuff, and as i have no idea what packs everything comes from, to be safe you should have all these.
I only spent an hour and a half making this, so its not great, but i tried quite hard here, so if you like it, a thanks would be very nice.
Also, the window's glass is not clear, its like that because my graphics are not very good.

- 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.
