CAW ... Alphabet Islands

Post by itsjulie »

MY ALPHABET ISLANDS

DON'T ask me why but, I have always wanted to create the Alphabet in Islands worlds, in CAW.

I am struggling at the moment, and not enjoying playing my game :O
So I have decided I am going to have a go at building these Alphabet worlds, it will at least give me some new worlds to play in and might kick start me playing again.

It will take me a long time, to create these worlds .. probably all of next year, if I work at it continuously, which is unlikely.
I should maybe make this my new years resolution, for 2020 ... to create 26 alphabet worlds.
And now I have told you I am doing it, I can't back out of it now :lol:

and here is the start of the first one.

The letter A

The letter A had been cut out and I have started working on the beaches.

so now I am off to finish the landscape and painting, laying roads and build it up ....

I will be back!! :roll:

It's funny you should say that. I am in a bit of Funk with my hoods and decided to something different at the moment too. But I think your A is Amazing. I have never built a neighbourhood/island either. Another thing I need to try and do.

I love making my own worlds .... it is very rare that I even open any of the EA worlds. I use my own worlds.
And if I am honest ... I get more enjoyment out of making the worlds than I get from playing in them :lol:

CAW is a lot easier to use than people think.

23rd September 2019

Huh! 46 lots in and I have hardly dented the island ... this is beginning to feel like I have clicked on the wrong map, and am working on a LARGE build, rather than a medium map :roll:

I already know that I am building a world that I will not enjoy playing ... because of the size of it.
I hate big worlds, which all of the EA worlds are. The reason why I started to build and only play my own worlds.

However now I've done so much, I have to see it through to the end.

Note to self Island B WILL B smaller :lol:

Image

and this is what you don't see in game ... remove the fog and you can see what is lurking under the water!!

It seems like a waste of time painting the sea bed with sand doesn't it, when its not seen outside of CAW .... but it isn't!
I have already learned the lesson of putting a dive lot into a world and when the sim goes diving you see a grass sea bed :lol: Not happening twice!!

Image

It still is looking VERY bare because it is going to take me a long time to fill in all the space.

Anyway, the next time I Edit in game, I'll get some close up screenshots of the small sections I've built so far, then it will look more like a sim world rather than a green space!!

I haven't played sims 3 so I can't really imagine how much work does it takes to make this, but I wanted to say that it looks awesome! You're doing an amazing job, I love all the little details on the map!

Good luck with completing all 26 islands!

Thanks Salem!! Yeah this is going to take a lot of work and time :)
I usually make myself empty worlds, so that I can build them up as I go along ... it stops me from getting bored of playing the same world.
This is the first total build I've done for a long time.

well, I've got a bit more done :lol:

all the roads are in now ... and yes i always go a little road crazy :roll:
Ive added quite a few community lots too

Image

I am going in game with it later so I WILL take pictures this time .... I forgot last time :shifty:
