[Sims 3] Kenton (Non Adult)-World

[Darkening Demise]

Welcome to Kenton, a large world surrounded by mountains and the ocean. There's plenty of space for lots of various sizes and features several bodies of water. The world comes empty but that's for you to fill to your tastes rather than having to take everything out you don't like. The majority of the world is flat except around the water and near the mountains for easy navigation and lot placement. The ocean is deep for those who use Island Paradise.

Below are some screenshots to give you an example of what you can do with Kenton.

Quite good for a starter...

 

Btw, I never make a world before. My mind is blank when creating a world...

Just randomly doodle, that's what I did with this. Was tired of not having space in EA worlds and I hated how everything was multi leveled causing issues with lots. So I made this in the hopes of placing several buildings around each other in 'blocks' in a way to get a city going. Kind of happened, but I found myself having performance issues so I deleted the save, the world is massive so rendering may be a issue it was for me. Hope it plays better for others.

 

You could also try remaking a area you know I did with an old town I used to live in.

It`s playing fine for me but I`ve only got about 20 lots on atm, so a bit early.

I`ve ditched Nraas overwatch coz my gut feeling is that just doesn`t sit well with KW. I`m using Nraas Traffic to cut down on vehicle spam, there`s a setting that cuts down taxis by a huge amount, think it`s traffic delta, set it to -255. Game settings are no celebrity, no animals, no supernaturals. Other wildlife deer, raccoons etc can be set to 0 with nraas register, which isn`t a bad mod, not too invasive.

 

Out of interest have you seen Red County custom world?

I`ve used it before, in fact I`ve just saved a lot of the residential lots from that hood into my saved lots library and about to place them in Kenton. The guy who made that hood spent a lot of time making sim friendly lots, very open plan and not many stairs. The only downside with that map is it`s size.

 

I`ve never used create a world, would it be possible to load a pre made hood like red county into CAW and cut the size down then export it?

There is "Editing Premade Worlds" by Simsample on MTS. Needs some editing in s3pe, but is possible.

 

Edit: worldsize itself can not be cut down to, say, half or whatever.

"worldsize itself can not be cut down to, say, half or whatever."

 

Ok

 

The only probs I`ve had with this map is down to the lots that I placed on it. I got a period of massive lag spikes, game would freeze for a minute or so at a time. Tracked it down to sims getting stuck on perimeter fencing on some lots that I`d placed.

 

The 1st pic highlights lots that I`d placed away from roads that had perimeter fencing with gate access to the lot....Except for the big park which had 4 big gaps on each side of the square. You`d think that would ok but nope, stupid sim c***ts still manged to get stuck. Knocked down the fences and lag was gone.

 

Some minor lag later on made me look again.

2nd pic shows that even leaving 1 section of fence sticking out on the lot/map border can prang those stupid sims, all 3 of those were stuck and had to be reset. Tip leave a 2 tile border between the lot/map boundary free of any clutter.
