Fleabottom Beta 1 World Update 25 August 2017

[Sural Argonus]

This is the page I get with AdBlocker.  If I go away from the tab, it halts the count down too.  Annoying.  

 

[maraas]

yeah I have the same!  but it starts on 60...really annoying!

Yeah.  I was already downloading a skin for a sim I wanted to check out.  I try to avoid TSR, but wanted to check this one out.  Not that impressed to be honest.  Kinda wasted my time.  Heh.  Oh well.  At least I got the screen cap tho.  Pretty much avoid TSR and any other Adfly sites anymore.  I am not white listing any site that uses invasive ads.  I didn't even white list LL.  (Sorry Ashal)

[OregonRain2]

I am not sure why I read that someone was looking for screenies of your world Jolie, so I spent some time taking shots and just reread your thread to see you have another one elsewhere here that has them?  Ugh and *facepalm*!  Color me tired.  Well since I went through the effort, you get them anyway.  Here are shots of what I took tonight but there are plenty more that I would have liked to have taken but just ran out of time.  Unfortunately since I reduced the size of the pics, they do not do the world justice at all but wanted to share what I get to see when I use the world

 

As you look through the pictures, notice the architecture and paint as well as the bricking.  Jolie did a fabulous job with detail. 

 

1) Barney Rubble Bedrock Bowling

2) Inside Barney Rubble Bedrock Bowling (Paige bowling)

3) Blackwater Bridge Park

4) Blackwater Island (this is my favorite, reminds me of a bayou kind of)

5) Blackwater Shores

6) Bless the Little Dears Park

7) Chalmun's Cantina (Jolie will need to correct me but I think our discussion revealed this was a Star Wars namesake)

8) Lower level of Chalmun's Cantina (condoms in the background/Jolie thought ahead)

9) Upper level of Chalmun's Cantina (now you know what the condoms are for)

10) Fleabottom Laundromat (look at the paint peeling on the walls and the chips on the washers/love the detail)

11) Fleabottom Laundromat (look at the architecture of this building/very well done)

12) Fleabottom Shores Station

13) Fleabottom Shores

14) Fleabottom's two level home (starter home/yard in back for gardening if needed)

15) Fleabottom's three level home (this is the upgrade from the two level/room on the roof top if you want a rooftop garden)

16) Mapview of Fleabottom

17) 2nd piece of mapview of Fleabottom (couldn't get it all to fit)

18) The Darlington Communal Pool (named for Lungpaul)

19) The Darlington Communal Pool (showing the inside and the pool structure)

 

Thank you Jolie for sharing this world with us.

Here are more shots of Fleabottom.  Unfortunately my picture taking is not the best and again am not able to do Fleabottom justice.  Due to lack of time, lateness of the hour....I was not able to get more for your perusal. 

 

1)  Basic Home Park

2)  Business and Journalism Rabbit Hole

3)  Backside of Business and Journalism Rabbit Hole

4)  Bell's Kettle (gym)

5)  Inside Bells Kettle (Nova getting her "grunt" on)

6)  Criminal Hideout Rabbit Hole (now I could swear this said Alphonse C. Capone but when I checked I couldn't get the title, sorry Jolie if I am mislabeling it.  This is one of my favorite structures, as you can see I snapped several pics of it)

7)  Criminal Hideout Rabbit Hole

8)  Plaque on the wall inside of the Criminal Hideout Rabbit Hole (this is something from Game of Thrones, Jolie will have to enlighten since I have not seen that program).

9)  Criminal Hideout Rabbit Hole bathroom (this one I really wanted to capture but had such a hard time with the camera angles/I love the grunginess of the mirror and the towel dispenser)

10) Castle Black (a bar/nightclub)

11) Mike's Magic (this one also I loved but just couldn't get the right angles to capture it)

[OregonRain2]

Here is the last of the Fleabottom Series pics.  I hope everyone enjoyed them and can see how much work and detail have gone into the buildings and landscaping.  Thank you Jolie for your time and effort into creating this world and sharing with others.

 

1) John Dillinger Theater (me being a movie lover, I wonder what's playing there)

2) Apone's Liquor and Beverages (I think I need more rum)

3) Books and Second Hand (one persons trash is another persons treasure)

4) City Hall aka Gemeinschaftsgrundstuck (Jolie so sorry if I butchered that)

5) Day spa aka Madame Invanka Massage

6) Police Station aka Fleabottom Department

7) Cubicle of the police station (love the old computer look, so outdated)

8) Fleabottom Row Station (I love the look of the windows on this structure)

9) Fleabottom Row Station (another angle)

10) Phone booth, locked electrical box, parking cone (look at the rust on the padlock and the cracked pavement/excellent details)

11) Josey Wales Grocery (I love the way the red door brings you out to a patio)

12) Science Center aka Citadel Research Lab

13) The Speak Easy

14) Backside of the Speak Easy (Hmm, wonder what's behind the door upstairs)

15) Inside the Speak Easy

16) Fleabottom Educ. Facility

17) Fleabottom Medical (clearly this one was my favorite today based on the amount of pics I took for it)

18) Sign and window of Fleabottom Medical (look at the cracked paint on the window, looks very weathered)

19) Fleabottom Medical waiting area (graffiti on the wall)

20) Bed in Fleabottom Medical

21) Abandoned equipment in Fleabottom Medical

22) The OR or ER of Fleabottom Medical (I had several horror movies going through my head at the sight of this equipment/notice the condom dispenser)

23) Rusted Gurney and equipment in the above mentioned room (I thought it odd that the chainsaw was the cleanest tool there.  Maybe a killer is residing in there somewhere.  "Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings)

24) Wheelchairs in Fleabottom Medical (I'll take the blue if someone wants to race me)

[lungpaul]

ace job thanks

[maraas]

Thanks jr!

 

[OregonRain2]

Here are some corrected shots of Fleabottom buildings.  I was missing rooftops with cornices but Jolie helped me sort it out.  Thank you Jolie. I did not shrink the pictures down this time as I feel it loses something in them when they are smaller, can't see the detail as well.

 

1) Correct version of Bell's Kettle

2) Correct version of Double Better Basic Home (I love this home)

3) Correct version of Fleabottom Library

4) Correct version of Salon, Stylist Dressmaker (this is the one I fondly dubbed "Sew It Seams")

5) Correct version of Speak Easy

6) Correct version of Watto's Scraps Quality Goods

 

Jolie if I've missed anything let me know and thank you for the cornices.

Bumped it, just in case.....

[joecoe]

Is the EP Into the Future required? Or the world is playable without it, only the BotShop will be missing?

From what I got so far, it`s just empty buildings if you don`t have a certain EP; don`t know what the DivingLot will do, be an island maybe.

Hi, I downloaded and played Fleabottom last night and it's a great world. I do have a prob...don't know if it's a glitch/bug of the world. My sims cannot cross the green bridge, my sim would walk up to the bridge then they would get the can't go there thought bubble, and I can't even walk anywhere else, backward or anywhere else. I had to do reset sim to go back to my lot.

 

and I do get a lot of unroutable sims found all around town.

 

just wanted to let you know.

That`s strange, my sims can cross the bridge, cars can cross it too; and before compiling the world I had CAW triple-check on routing.

 

Try reinstalling and don`t forget to add the rabbit-rugs.

 

[lungpaul]

I also have no problems crossing the bridge

[maraas]

I have no problem with the bridge, but it might be depending on an ep of some sort?

 

[Jolie Rouge]

CAW has it listed as BaseGame, if it was an EP, the bridge would be missing if you don`t have it.

I would go for reinstall, since no one reported this problem before.

Thanks for the reply! Will reinstall it and hopefully it will fix itself 

Just another question: Does the world have a city hall? I can't seem to find it.

It`s the cornerbuilding where you find the grocery, Chalmun`s Cantina and Fleabottom Row Station; use map view to locate the CityHall icon.

Thanks! It's just that when I use map view all I see are icons with the benches on them for all community lots, is that what it's suppose to look like. I didn't installed it via the game launcher. I extracted all the files to package file, then change the Fleabottom.package to Fleabottom.world and put the rest of the extracted package into my mod folder. 

 

Maybe I'm having problems by installing it that way...

its best not to change any of the file names as a world package is different leave the name alone and after remove the changed one retry useing the downloader is the best way and you dont need to worry about installing all the bits need as they are in the file

Oh, explains a lot....

 

Install it via Launcher, then drop the all-rabbit-rugs-doors into your mods/packages and everything should be fine.

The rabbit-package enables all the community lots that use a rug or door.
