Annie’s first day at home.

I realized I forgot to assign traits for Nate and Tabitha during their round, but when I was trying to figure out how to decorate Annie’s house, I came up with the following traits for her: 

  • Artistic – she painted all the time in college, and dabbled in pottery as well
  • Family-Oriented – she behaves like a Family Sim so much that I almost forgot her aspiration is Popularity – guess her secondary is all figured out then!
  • Gatherer – I feel like Annie is the type of person who would enjoy thrift shops or picking up knick-knacks at yard sales and flea markets and whatnot. There are random tchotchkes all over her kitchen and living room, along with the trunk coffee table that I like to think she picked up secondhand. 🙂
  • Green Thumb – er, kind of an excuse for me to go garden crazy? I mean REALLY CRAZY. also even though her LTW is to become ~the law~, I want her to ultimately own Thistle & Honey (I built it with Annie in mind :D).
  • Vegetarian – a bit of a challenge trait – let’s see if I can avoid having her eat any meat-containing meals! 😛

Questions about custom vacation destinations!

I’d like to add a custom vacation destination to my neighborhood, but I was wondering if it’s possible to create vacation destinations (lots) within the main hood? If not, I kind of want to create one vacation subhood with a variety of destinations (tropical, mountainous, etc., kind of like the TS1 vacation hood). Is this feasible? Any good SC4 recommendations? Or, if I wind up just making two separate subhoods, is there a way to set up vacation locals that doesn’t involve the Townie Brick? (It doesn’t play well with my other mods…) 

GAH sorry for all the questions, I just know this is going to be a bit of an undertaking so I’m still trying to figure out the best way to approach it. :’)
