Great build. How did you cram so much in there?

Could you please label the layout shots in the library so I can see what floors have what on them?

Love the look on the outside. Very beach mansion.

How is it to play btw?

Thanks.
I didn't know I could label the pictures in the Gallery!? *Runs off to check*
Play-wise it's fine. It's all been tested. I can well imagine, however, that with a LOT of Sims, it may get crowded on the stairs occasionally. I play-tested it with 1 Sim. But I'd welcome feedback on it from anyone trying it with a large family!



EDIT: Erm... how exactly do I label the pictures in the Gallery? :/

I've added a floor-by-floor breakdown on the first post, Saltpastillen. I couldn't work out how to label the pictures on the gallery :/ You should be able to see which floor is which on the pictures by what's in them :)

There are two ways.

1, the easy way is to label them when you upload, once they have all been uploaded you click continue and go to a page where you see all the pictures in tiny tumbs to the right and you can add a title.

2, If you have already uploaded the pictures. Go to your album and click the picture you want to label. Once you open the picture you have 3 buttons on the bottom. "Crop and rotate" "Edit file information" and "Delete this file". Select edit file information and you should be able to add a title. Don't forget to save!

Edit: Thanks for the break down!

Thanks for that. I think I got it now. I just labelled the overhead shots. Hope that helps :)

An other great build by Neishaleigh . You're so very creative . I really enjoy seeing all of your creations . It also has great landscaping . I really can't believe this is only a 10x10 lot . I just love the look ! :)

This is a beautiful house, Neashaleigh! Would you be willing to do a version without store items?
