Building a Millionaire Mansion

[Leto85]

If i remember right there are really many and seven different styles, and if you count the paintings from the board too (stylist, archeology) thats many.

Is there a list anywhere where you can see them all actually.??

I've asked that question in a seperate topic yesterday, but I believe I've found the answer myself already, on a site that can't be mentioned here because of mods. But there are actually 158 different paintings a sim can paint, and multiplied with the nine different styles you will get an total value of 1580 paintings.

Wow! Seems like a huge undertaking. Good Luck!

I think my Jade Dynasty House will be my first ever House to breach over 1 Million, it isn't even finished yet and is worth 500,000!  Good Luck with your Mansion Leto!

You to samoth! I've never reached the value aboth $750.000,- without funiture. Only walls, floor, seiling, fire pits, gardens and pools aren't enough to go over $1000.000,- dollars.

Mine is not completely furnished yet and will have Sculptures and Paintings done by my Slaves Immortals or soon to be.

Sound nice! I will ad a library in it with all books ingame (timemachine, work oppertunities, that kind of stuff) and than multiply them with the Omni plants.

Too bad the "Order Seeds" function is broken.  Can you feed an Omni Plant Omni Seeds?

Servants Quarters?

Would be cool if you can. But no, even with the latest patch this seems not to be fixed yet.
But you could try the time machine. Occasionally you will come back with an omni seed and after mine did by exident, I've duplicated the seed on a nearby lot (search for the clone topic). That is the only way to get them these days.

This sounds really ambitious and I can't wait to see how it turns out when you find some time to build it.

I have a logistical question, though.  If your other mansion slowed your game to the point of being unplayable and your new mansion is going to have so many rooms full of so much stuff, won't it also crash your game even if it is smaller than before?

Very good question. And therefore I am going to merge rooms. Besides that, I will not go 4 floors high and 4 basements deep anymore filled with nectar because I always find myself going in a gray room where my game was more busy with rendering the objects within than other things. Sometimes it more looked like I was watching a dia-presentation of sims instead of playing a game.
And that while I have a very good system to run all this.

I usually start off with a basement that is 4 floors deep, but in all honesty, I don't think I've ever used all four levels.

Hehe, and I don't recommend you to try either.

[Katluvr]

Holy cow, 8 levels altogether?!  My most expensive home only has 4 above ground and 1 below and it's not nearly filled up yet.  I think I need to marry richer sims.

Dont forget your six to eight car garage where you can place the millionaire's sports cars and vintage cars collection.  Thanks for the great idea of all the rooms in the mansion, I'm going to make one myself, I love building houses in the game!
