If there are multiple 64x64 Lots then wouldn't it be nice to be able to have a choice between them for once? We're using the familyFunds cheat now so the pricing doesn't matter now as much as it would. I mean if you didn't want to be close to town and in a certain style of area, I don't know if they vary or not.  :)

You have a good point, samo. Could someone provide me with all 4 64 X 64 lot addresses?

It sounds like we didn't designate a lot for Lunar Lakes, either.

I thought Lunar Lakes was 64 Hyperion?

There were two possible lots for Lunar Lakes and Metro chose the 60 x 60 one over the 64 x 64 and that's the one everyone has played in so far. 


Here are the lots, their locations and addresses:


107 Lakeside Drive, 137 Lakeside Drive (top picture)
228 Sedona Drive, 64 Golf Links Lane (bottom picture)

Sorry about the lighting.  For some reason, print screens are always darker than my screenshots.

I decided to give travel one more chance by sending 2 couples and everything was fine until it was time to go home and my 2nd generation husband couldn't return home. I made the mistake of clicking save instead of save as when they reached so save prior to that is about 3 sims days. Is it ok to go back to that save or is it a fail since I didn't use save as?

It says in the rules: If you have a bonafide bug, then you may return to an earlier save. You do not need to ask for permission.
It doesn't matter how you saved it.

I have perused these forums for some time. They've been very helpful and I've enjoyed checking out the stories others are creating with their Sims, particularly the Dynasty entries. I've decided to give it a try myself and want to do everything by the book.

I decided to use Bridgeport as my Dynasty town but I have the Showtime expansion pack (which I am enjoying) so 64 Applewood Lane becomes a community lot, Mick's Master Karaoke. According to the rules of the challenge Edit Town is off-limits. I was wondering if there would be any objection to converting the lot back into a residential one?

Welcome to our Forum!

Even though you're asking about a story, your post is more of a question about starting an Immortal Dynasty, so I'm going to merge your post into the Immortal Dynasty thread.  You can ask any questions you may have there and will be able to get some answers.

Thank you for the welcome, Pam, and moving the thread to the appropriate location. (I've enjoyed your Dreamweaver dynasties.)

I could always choose a different town if the answer is "no." Maybe I will do that anyway.

Welcome to the forums!   Mick's Master Karaoke would be treated the same was as the equestrian center in Sunset Valley or Twinbrook.  You're allowed to move the lot and place it on an empty lot of your choosing and then switch back the dynasty lot to residential so you can begin.

Two things to note about Bridgeport:  After a long time, Bridgeport can get very buggy due to the cars glitch where townies just keep getting new cars to go everywhere.  And inventing is unavailable as a supermax because the Simbot opportunity is bugged while in Bridgeport.  Otherwise good luck!

Thanks, I just wanted to be double sure.  :)

Thanks, that's good to know! I'll keep that in mind about the Inventing skill.
