Editors Notes Brrrrrr...! Feel that chill in the air? I guess its time to pack away mini skirts and flip-flops and make way for some warmer, cozier gear. But have no fear, Fall is just as fashionable as any other season. I know that I’ve been dying to pull out my leggings, riding boots and slouchy sweaters, honey - and stop shaving my legs (but let’s keep that one between us, shall we?)

But wait! Its not over people! “Is it Christmas already?” you say. No. It isn’t... But we at SF are just in that kinda mood. This month’s issue also features brand new exclusive items from our dear friend Riccinumbers and a Collection Premier from spectacular fashion CC creator Glaza. WHO LOVES YOU BABY!!!??

Don’t forget to check out this month’s guest collaborator Stradlin Sims’ fashion editorial debut in “The Brothers Grimm” as well as AsiaShaMecca’s exclusive interview with EA’s very own Art Director, Samantha Micelo.

Also featured in this month’s fashion editorials, Simanim’s tribute to the fun and funky fashion in “Circus Lights” and Aikea Guinea’s take on Poe’s classic “the Raven”.

As we say goodbye to the fair weather of Summer, I would like to take some time to thank all the at SF staffers, in particular, my right hand (and left foot) AsiaShaMecca. We definitely would not have been able to do this without everyone’s hard work and dedication.

And for that, hugs all around for a job well done!

This month’s issue is BIG...big for several reasons. No. 1 being that we’ve welcomed yet another SF baby into the world - our design guru Allium recently gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and so we would like to extend to her and her family some more heartfelt congratulations. And as a treat to her and, of course, you guys - we had the awesome diva at Awesims create a special gift just for her; The Broyhill Nursery Set (thanks Sarah!). So, make sure you look out for that in our pages as you read on.

that special someone. A walk in the garden.

An intimate dinner. A leisurely bath. Those treasured moments give weight and depth to... amour. They may tell you that attraction is about looks. They may tell you that desire is of the flesh... They say so many things. But love? True love is eternal. Like Death. Even they agree on that. Enjoy our visions of love.

Beloved! amid the earnest woes

That crowd around my earthly path-(Drear path, alas! where grows Not even one lonely rose)-My soul at least a solace hath In dreams of thee, and therein knows An Eden of bland repose.

And thus thy memory is to me Like some enchanted far-off isle In some tumultuous sea-Some ocean throbbing far and free With storm--but where meanwhile Serenest skies continually Just o’er that one bright inland smile.

When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face; And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

Romance, who loves to nod and sing, With drowsy head and folded wing, Among the green leaves as they shake Far down within some shadowy lake, To me a painted paroquet Hath been--a most familiar bird-Taught me my alphabet to say-To lisp my very earliest word While in the wild wood I did lie, A child--with a most knowing eye.

Of late, eternal Condor years So shake the very Heaven on high With tumult as they thunder by, I have no time for idle cares Though gazing on the unquiet sky.

And when an hour with calmer wings Its down upon my spirit flings-That little time with lyre and rhyme To while away--forbidden things!

My heart would feel to be a crime Unless it trembled with the strings.

14

Take this kiss upon the brow!

And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow-You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream: Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision or in none, Is it therefore the less gone?

All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the golden sand-How few! yet how they creep Through my fingers to the deep While I weep--while I weep!

O God! can I not grasp Them with a tighter clasp?

O God! can I not save One from the pitiless wave?

Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream?

Poetry selections by Edgar Allen Poe.

ith the Fall comes magic. There is something stirring in the air. A whisper on the wind that welcomes us to another side of ourselves. The falling leaves. The wind rustling through the trees. What better time of year is there to express that secret self? Are you bold? Mysterious? Perhaps a little dangerous? Tell the tale with clothes that have personality. What changes a garment from plain to portentous? Intricate patterns, bold colors and unexpected pairings can transform your wardrobe into a moving canvas.

DESIGNER SHOWCASE Images and Questions by AsiaShaMecca Fashion and Answers by Samantha Micelo & EA http://www.thesims3.com

OK, well right now I am the Associate Art Director for The Sims 3. I’ll tell you a little about what I’ve done for previous games which is oversee the look and feel and style of a lot of our assets. So this includes the objects, furniture, parts of houses, architectural stuff like windows and doors and then also a lot of the clothes.

A. We love them. We love The Sims, but My group and I will work on the Expansion we love to hate on them to. No independent Packs, the Stuff Packs and Store Assets. So creator has stood up to half the fan griping we’re kind of all over the place. as the makers of the game itself. So, now for something a little different, let’s hear from One thing we’ve noticed -and you may have the folks at EA themselves. seen it in the Magazine- at first it was all independent creator content and now very On our recent EA Community Day, SF got to sit lately more and more EA items, Packs and down with Samantha Micelo, Art Director for Store have been getting in. It’s become more The Sims 3 and get a peek behind the scenes fashionable. More the kind of things you really of the creative process. We won’t squander dream about having. Was this a conscious the opportunity. Let’s get to it! shift?

Yes and no. I think what happens is a lot of Thank you so much for taking the time to sit times… The overall themes are not run by the down with us. Tell us a little bit about yourself art teams. It’s run by different Producers. and what you do for EA?

E

27

So different people may have different things in mind that they want created. They’re not telling us assets by asset what to make but they may say here’s the theme.

So I think early on, especially in Store a lot of people were trying to cover more of the basics.

Like, here’s the basics that we already have and let’s flesh out. But later on, as the years go by

stuff.

I think as they get more used to it we become better designers ourselves just doing this year after year. The themes get more interesting.

The artists get more experience with fashion.

I mean most of us, we’re not Fashion Majors in school. We’ve learned a lot along the way.

We actually do have people who’ve studied Fashion.

Do you find that is more popular in the community? I used to read the comments and people are so mean to you guys. Do you find now that people are more receptive now to the things you’re doing?

Yeah, I actually do read a lot of the comments. Of course I can’t read every one but I do read a lot of them quite a bit and I have noticed the trend lately of people being more….

I see people more excited about it. I see people go totally nuts and they’ll actually take screen shots of every single asset. And it’s great. I love seeing that. It’s really fun… to see people having fun with this stuff.

And as far as negative stuff; you’re never get 100% positive. Any forum we have… more than enough pairs of jeans and anywhere, there’s going to be some negativity more than enough basic items and we really do and I think there’s just different tastes. I see need to be more creative to shine. And it’s fun people asking for basics, and I see people for the artists to be able to do more… out there asking for more fantasy.

So everyone’s got their own tastes and opinions, which is another reason I think the Store is really great. Because they’re smaller sets, we’re able to expand the themes quite a bit rather than waiting for another EP to come out to do something new.

So you start with a theme. Then where do you guys get your inspiration? Where do the ideas come from?

Do you use 3D models?

Is it all from scratch? What is the creation process like?

We really do create everything from scratch.

Having said that, we pay a lot of attention to what’s going on in the fashion world, what’s going on in the furniture design world. I myself

have gone to furniture design shows and lectures just to get a better sense of what’s going on in these other industries. And also history.

We have a lot of art history furniture books lying around just to see how is something constructed. How do we interpret a style and make it Simsified? We do a lot of research but everything is created from scratch.

Also, what people ask for is important. We can’t put in everything at once. But yeah, we get a lot of inspiration from requests. All of it really. If you asked for something at some point it gets put in eventually.

HA! EA takes requests. I love that. Do you get to play the game?

25 29

Yes. The last couple of days I’ve been playing quite a bit. For me it’s probably not a fair look at the game. It’s very hard for me to play without critiquing all the way through. So I’m always in the game checking this or that.

OK, so you can’t just come in and say I’d like to make this and put it out there for the players.

What other kinds of limitations do you have?

We all kinds of technical limitations. We tend to be over cautious about having assets that clip though on a lot of stuff. We don’t want to make a lot of big huge dresses or big shoulder pieces or whatnot that… you know, every time the Sim walks by the stove it’s going to go right through. We tend to be very careful. Like a little bit of clipping is OK. We’re going to have it with the more extreme assets. That’s totally fine. But we don’t it to be where it’s really out there. You know, really really obvious.

Another thing is technically we don’t have a lot of transparency. We sometimes run into problems if we have heavy amounts of transparency. You know if we have fabrics layered on top of each other and they’re all transparent, that can cause some technical issues. Too many details. Like if an item has feathers all over it. That can cause problems as well.

We definitely want it to look clean and not be broken in any way.

In closing, what sorts of things would you like

30

to do? What would you like to see more of? If you could just get up tomorrow and throw in anything, what would you do?

Personality I definitely like fantasy stuff quite a lot. I like sci-fi stuff. I also get really excited when we have international sets.

We did an India set not too long ago and that was really fun for clothing and for objects.

Seeing more stuff around the world I think would be really super fun. It’s fun combining, you know modern design

stuff that you can put in your home, with International things. We had a Cambodian Set as well and we were just going totally nuts with different furniture with Cambodian taste. That’s fun to do. It’s very unusual.

You can’t just go the store and get this stuff.

So, I love stuff like that. Where it’s not just something you can go pick up yourself. You get to live in the fantasy world when you’re playing the game.

new year for school and nothing else but getting that 4.0 on your mind. Alright, maybe that’s a lie…its college, who wants to go back to school looking like they just woke up? This year forget about fitting in and instead stand out; be a rebel. These girls and boys do not care who is watching, they are all visual eye candy. Ever wonder how those girls in your class manage to pull off the look that oozes charm, elegance and is still red hot? Our models donned long elegant gloves, high heeled spikes, tons of vintage accessories and to shake the elegance up a little, their trusty blue jeans paired with blazers for the pending cooler weather. Color so bright it would probably burn your retinas and attitude so high you know that look your professor is giving is all for you. And those boys, don’t they look fine? That’s all attitude and style. From looking nerdy hot to a cool classic, it’s no wonder the ladies flock to them.

Smart doesn’t have to be fashionably challenged, bland, and boring. Join these smartly dressed rebels who know how to get it done – in and out of the classroom.

Of course. They vary though, by taste and personal Style. ONE thing is Universal. The one thing every single diva simply can’t do without. You know it. It’s the LBD. The Little Black Dress. Or in French “La Petite Robe Niore” From the ballroom to the boardroom to the cocktail party. Whatever your Sim’s event… Or should we say… Event, she should always have at least one LBD. Just throw it on and she’s instantly right for the occasion. There’s no thought involved. That’s the beauty of it. The true LBD is always simple, classy and just right. These dresses will make you Sim sigh with pleasure. Now... all she needs are the shoes.

s the Summer weather winds down, the cooler winds of Fall take over. As the fun leaves you feeling light and refreshed, school begins. This season we are taking advantage of a fall runway favorite: Burgundy. It reminds us at SF of film noir in all its rich and elegant glory.

Burgundy is a color that can be as sexy as red but is as versatile as basic black. This season we challenge you to kick off your fall fashion by replacing blacks, grays and those other drab colors with burgundy. It will highlight and revive your ensembles. Colors that work well with burgundy include blues, dark greens, pinks, and peachy browns. And if you chose a burgundy dress for a night out, stand out like a runway model with gold heels to underline the warm tones of burgundy.

This fall opt for a burgundy trench coat with laser cut lace, decorative light jackets or satin bowed blazers. Whether you are heading back to school, or going to work these fall favorites are not only lightweight but will keep you warm and fashionable. Don’t forget to change those opened toe sandals and heels for stylized boots and ankle shoes.

Eagerly I wished the morrow;vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrowsorrow for the lost Lenore...

61

Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning, Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.

Then methought the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer Swung by Seraphim whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor.

63

Nothing further then he utterednot a feather then he flutteredTill I scarcely more than muttered, “Other friends have flown beforeOn the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.”

Then the bird said, “Nevermore.”

Leave my loneliness unbroken!quit the bust above my door!

Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!�

s Fall settles in the days get cooler and the nights get longer.

We are filled with an almost melancholy sense of the long Winter to come. Time slows down and for a moment we are falling with the leaves. Find comfort in clothes that not only add some warmth but that nestle you as a soft blanket would on a chilly day. Chunky knits paired with unexpected detailing not only lend comfort but style as well. This season is perfect for pairing cool and warm weather pieces, so don’t be afraid to bare that skin a little.

As for those long Autumn nights, you just can’t do better than a comfy blazer paired with just about anything. Don’t forget to add a bauble or two and even though shades of gray and beige are very comforting, don’t be afraid to play with the bold colors of Autumn. Before you know it you will be falling into Fall with style.

SR STUDIOS : http://www.youtube.com/user/SimRomanov SR Studios or SimRomanov, is probably best known for his award winning mystery film called Alone in the Dark. It is the simplicity of some scenes that make his machinima truly stand out; he clearly knows the game limitations and uses them to his advantage. His music videos are very inspiring and heart touching pieces of art.

AUSAGI : http://www.youtube.com/user/ausagi Ausagi’s machinimas stand out for having a lot of horror, gore and action along with ominous music. This artist really knows how to transmit that eerie atmosphere with superb use of camera angles, animation, lighting, special effects and amazing character and set creation.

MODEL CREATOR SPOTLIGHT

LeVITAS Images and Questions by ASIASHAMECCA Sims and Answers by LEVITAS Special thanks to YURI for translations

HTTP://LEVITASSIMS.BLOGSPOT.COM HTTP://BEAUTY-SIMS3.MY1.RU

L

evitas. The Sims are so hot they almost steam up the screen.

We discovered Levitas on MySims3 blog and can honestly say we’ve never seen a Sim from this creator yet that wasn’t drop dead gorgeous! You can literally download them and they’re ready to go with all the relevant content included. Quite the time-saver when we’re looking for a model. And it’s always great to have another pretty face in your game.

Levitas was gracious enough to take the time and answer some questions for us. Let’s get to know this amazing Sim creator a bit better.

Thank you so much for taking the time to talk with us. Please tell us about yourself?

My name is Maria. I am a 27 year old chemical engineer. I live in Belarus.

Currently, I do not work and stay home with 2 little children. While in high-school and in college I was involved in singing and dancing. I became interested in Sims 3 recently, just a little over a year ago.

Your Sims are always so very beautiful. I’m a huge fan of your work.

What inspires you when you create?

I get inspiration from everything around me. It could be anything – music, a movie character, a mood.

Which Sims would you say are your favorites and why?

I don’t have favorite sims. I love all of them. They are all different to me and all evoke some memories from my past. I can’t really pinpoint a specific one.

Why did you decide to start your own blog?

I started my own blog almost immediately after starting creating sims.

To me it was some sort of a vault where I could store and organize my work. Also, with the help of “Blogger” system I am notified when my favorite blogs are updated and it is very convenient.

83

What are the challenges of running your own blog as opposed to posting on a forum like BeautySims3? What are the joys?

I haven’t really encountered any major challenges or difficulties in working on my blog. I don’t really spend my time with it. In the beginning, after I first created it, I completely abandoned it for a while. Then one day I opened it and found out there are new readers including some of my favorite authors. Thus, I decided to keep working on it and now it brings me a lot of joy! It’s always fun to see a new reader or new comments.

Working with Beauty-Sims is more challenging, of course, since it’s such a large scale project and is more important to me. I had some problems in the beginning. I

had to face some anger and betrayal from people that I didn’t expect it from. At first I had second thoughts about whether or not I should have even had started it. However, very shortly I found a person who persuaded me not to give up and continue my work and helped me a great deal. That person was Foret, the site administrator. Without her the site wouldn’t be the same today. Now we have a small and very friendly circle of administrators and moderators. We truly enjoy communication with each other and share our thoughts, ideas, experiences and interesting screenshots from the game. All the problems are in the past.

When you create a Sim what makes you say to yourself, this Sim is ready. This is what I want to post on my blog and share with the community?

Do you mean my first Sim? My very first Sim was Isabel. I don’t even know why I decided to post it online. I guess I just wanted to

share it with someone.

I know when the Sim is ready when I can see a harmony in his or her image – haircut, color of eyes, skin and much much more. Something clicks inside of me telling me that it is ready.

Brilliant! As a creator, what would you like to see more of in The Sims and in the community as whole?

I never thought about it. As of today, I am perfectly happy. I would want my characters to be as realistic as possible. Sometimes Sims from different authors look very much alike just because they have the same haircut or color of the eyes. I would want to have more possibilities in creating Sims. I think that would be possible if Sims 4 is released.

Autumn Lights IMAGES BY JASUMI WORDS BY SOMESIMGUY

S

easons is a pending twinkle in the eye and I know you’re asking yourself; Gee… I wonder what SomeSimGuy’s favorite season is (I know you’re wondering ‘cause you’re just that thoughtful, dear SF readers)? Well wonder no more my friends.

Summer’s ok. Yeah, -Bikini Bikini BIKINI- Summer is really OK. But Autumn is always number one for me.

Why Autumn you ask? Knowing my depth of character, I’m sure you think it’s the lovely turning of the leaves. The brisk chill in the air. Perhaps the changing of the Seasons presents the perfect time for reflection and the metaphors for life in death falling off every tree. NOPE! I love Autumn ‘cause chicks in boots are HOT! Sweaters and minis and tights are HOT! Tragic Twilight emo chicks with their thigh socks and lil’ Forever Young crochet sweaters are HOT! Did I spoil it for you? Are you shaking your head at the shallowness of it all? GREAT! Then I’ve done my muckraking job. These pictures have all the depth you need.

They would move me to tears if I still had tears to shed.

Somewhere a sad eyed girl is brushing her hair out of her eyes in a twilit field of heather.

The wind ruffles her knit mini. She shuffles her clogs. And she doesn’t know it yet, but yeah…. She’s HOT! Enjoy these visions of Autumn. I hope I didn’t ruin it for ya. Not that I could if I tried. Jasumi is a genius and Autumn is FINALLY here!

The Brothers Grimm Tfavorite hese guys might be from a different century, they might hunt down your fairytale, and they might even find the gruesome truth. But they do it in style.

Haunting dark alleys with shadows lurking, traumatized young women, sleepy towns drenched in fog night and day. These fellows work hard. Their pristine trench coats, dark top hats and brooding looks all dictate their countenance.

The Brothers Grimm gives us a glimpse at male gothic fashion with dark colors, heavy fabrics, thickly wrapped scarves and soft leather boots. Some might say that these looks died a while ago, but we at SF find it alluring, mysterious and in a way dangerous.

All we can say is take a page out of the Brothers Grimm book boys. These brothers know how to dress the part and rescue the damsel in distress; a deadly combination.

lternative. Different from the usual or conventional. Existing or functioning outside the established cultural, or social system. Thank you Webster. You may have never seen Glaza but you’ve defined her work perfectly. Every designer shouldn’t be the same becuase every Fashionista most definately is not.

Glaza described the theme of her collection as, “Sexuality and romance, aggressive but natural.”

We called it, “A Rose is a Rose is a Rose” because these themes are eternal and because this collection is right on point. Soon to be released on Glaza’s blog.

Days of Future BRINGING RETRO CONCEPTS Past TO MODERN MILITARY STYLE There is the sharp click of boots on asphalt. The click of heels and the whisper of a sharp salute. Is it? Could it be?

Yes! Fall is back babies, and with it, the ever present fashion statement; military style. Well it ever fall from grace? We certainly hope not! In fact... Hurray for brass buttons. Three cheers for double breasted jackets. Bring on the shiny leather, gloves and aviators.

Break out the worsted wool and jaunty caps. We’ve been waiting for it all year!

Military toughens up your look as always. But it brings in a hint of WWII vintage line. All of these looks are quite simple and comfy like real military clothing but of course the fabrics are softer and designs are more adapted to Sim’s shapes. So go commando... Again.

Setting the scene.

OK, I get it. It’s a big deal. Once I downloaded the edible place it where you want it pizza I was pretty much done decorating. But... I gather from my sources at SF that decorating your Sims abode is -SHOCKER- actually a big deal. And as we have already established, tech is a necessity.

Why should your turn of the century Sim have to suffer through the agony of life without trolling on a forum. Or maybe REALLY old school isn’t your thing. Maybe your Sim craves retro.

Transistor radios, vintage picture tube TVs in a wooden housing.

A TURNTABLE! Pinch me I must be dreaming!

Are you a Sims 2 fanatic? Or maybe ultra modern. Ultra Sci-Fi right down to the spaceship. Maybe your SIFF in-game movie maker wants to film... IN-GAME. It’s Sims. Build it up and don’t forget the details. Simulated life is in those details after all.

“I never drink… wine.” said, Bela Lugosi’s Dracula. It’s perhaps one of the most chilling lines ever spoken in horror film. And it isn’t memorable because of what was said… Instead the tingle came from what was unsaid.

Chilling gothic beauty is quite like that.

The look is over the top. But somehow, it’s understated too. Gothic Romance isn’t all about drawing on big black clown eyes and “lips like blood”. It’s more like fluid than that. More like smudged black liner and matte raspberry kisses.

Brilliant Color

If a full-on lid of colored eyeshadow is too bold for your taste, you just may fall in love with summer’s colored eyeliner trend. Similar to the bright clothing trend, bright eyeliners are best when worn with minimal or muted lip and cheek shades.

118

Subtle is the New Sexy When you try these looks, don’t just lather it on. Avoid hard liners and drawn on lashes. If your lips must shine, choose a subtle natural shade. Mulberry lips are all the rage for Fall and perfect for this look. Be bold with the blush though to make those aristocratic cheekbones stand out. And as for lashes, forget the drawn kind. Go three dimensional. The longer and more dramatic the better.

The Drama is in the Details Grab them with the tiny details. A high outrageous hairdo, or maybe fragile wisps at the edges are perfect for Gothic Romance. Somehow with this look every “No” turns into a “Yes.” Black nails as long and sharp as knives go beautifully.

A high Edwardian collar? Bring it on! Or maybe something even scarier like these Vampire’s veins.

Halloween is the perfect time to get in touch with your inner blood sucker. But we’re betting you’ll love this look so much you won’t want to let it go. Any time is the perfect time for a little Romance.

odern style homes with the most up-to-date décor, great playable floor plans and easily to decorate spaces with a comfortable feel are the trademark of Sergio’s custom homes. Our design consultant had the opportunity to visit several of these homes and in our featured home, Glamour House, she fell in love with the pops of colour and unique ambiance created by well-chosen accent pieces throughout.

Be sure to check the home details for necessary cc items to download, but don’t let the need for cc deter you. Sergio creates EA versions of many of his lots,

and those that are not can easily be re-decorated with your skillful touch to express your own design preferences when items are missing.

Sergio’s homes, including the home featured here, are always well received by his fans as the positive reviews will attest. We hope that you will find a space for one of these lovely abodes in your modern-inspired towns.

e continue our inspired showcase of EA creations here in our CC spotlight with an exploration of the possibilities of EA only interior design.

So much of our interior design projects and showcases emphasize the vast collections and selections of community created objects, but have you taken a look at the extensive selection available with only official EA items? The variety is nothing to balk at as the expansions, stuff packs and store item collection grows and grows. Those of us who believe that we cannot achieve our design dreams without external cc might find ourselves pleasantly surprised and inspired.

145

Builders face the challenge of creating attractive builds without the burden of a huge cc list. Being able to create great designs with gameprovided dĂŠcor and objects is key. While cc laden designs do draw gasps of awe, a cc-free build will gather the attention of the community at large in a barrage of appreciative commentary.

Our designer Kementari presents to you just a scratch of the surface of possibilities.

Challenge yourself to delve deeper and explore the dĂŠcor and design possibilities of official EA offerings.

We would like to extend a warm thank you of appreciation to The Sims3 for their support and inspiration.

World Showcase Pounawea by Awesims

Some Sims like the hustle & bustle of the big city, while others prefer a much slower pace, in a place where they can relax and enjoy natures bounty. Pounawea is just such a place.

The township, situated on an estuary, lies where the Owaka and Catlin rivers meet. A wonderful place to fish, hike and relax, Pounawea is a popular summer holiday spot, with its spectacular waterfalls, gorgeous views of the mountains, and friendly locals. In recent times, the idyllic town was chosen as the site for a premier golf course, and with it came tourists and their money, a very luxurious golf club and brand new visitor centre. Fortunately (or not, depending on your point of view) the town has retained all its sleepy character, which you’ll notice as you wander down the main stret, with its small shops long overdue for a makeover.

Requirements: World Size: Large map, small town though Residential Lots: 30 total; 20 fully built & furnished; 10 empty lots Community Lots: Grocery; Fish & Chip Shop (Diner); Community Hall (Hangout); Gym; City Hall/Police/Mil; Bookstore; Offices; Spa; Restaurant; Consignment Store; Nectary Library; Playground; Medical Centre; Graveyard; Pub; Fire; Fishing Spot; Private Venue (Golf Club); Sports Club(Golf Club); Visitor Centre (Hangout); School; Salon; Beach; Art Gallery.

Despite its small size, you’ll find plenty to do in Pounawea. Performers can be seen regularly at the swanky club in the new Golf Club, with smaller acts performing in the basement club & Community Centres. Of course the locals prefer to have a pint at the local watering hole, where budding musicians are often found practicing their new songs. There’s a lot this town doesn’t have, but what it does have is just wonderful.

World Theme: This world is designed to be relaxed, “holiday-ish” coastal Otago town, and as such doesn’t have some of the rabbitholes or community lots. There is no stadium, no movie theatre, only 2 bar types (sports & dive bar), no junkyard (but there are junkyard spawners behind the nectary & some junk piles there), and no movie set.

There are, however, a few empty lots should you wish to place your own.

There is not a great deal of room for expansion in this world, but if your sim wants the simple life, this is the world for you!

Population: I was originally going to pre-populate the world, but have since decided to provide a save file instead, for people who wish to populate the world with their own sims.

In the save game the world is populated with 15 different families, which gives the town a starting population of 57 sims.

There is a diverse mix of sims, with different ages, genders, sexualities and ethnicities.
