Paddy Murphy’s Pub
2×2 Community Lot
More pictures here & here.

Lochlander had asked if I would share this lot or post the floorplan, so I figured I’d do both. Feel free to copy/recreate this lot in your own game if you don’t particularly want to download the package file. 🙂 

Please use the Clean Installer. I’ve also bulk-renamed my files, so they won’t necessarily overwrite yours if there are duplicates. 

I have all EPs and SPs except Teen Style Stuff. Obviously, Nightlife is required.

Required but NOT INCLUDED:

  • NL Sectional recolors: I’m fairly certain the wood recolor is by Poppet, but the fabric is either by Poppet or Anna.
  • Ohbehave Miasmata tree: Ohbehave’s wonderful Miasmata set makes heavy use of the repository technique, and the only tree I used on the lot is a slaved file so you will need the master from her set to make it show up. (The whole set is amazing and everyone should have it already, just sayin’.)

Notes:

  • The lot has a second floor, but it’s completely empty. I originally wanted to model the lot after several pubs I’ve been to that have an open second floor with a balcony to look down on the stage below. However, I couldn’t actually execute the idea to my liking, but thought the exterior looked better with a second floor so it remained for decorative purposes only. 😛 If you wanted to make the second floor functional, it’d be easy enough to just delete one of the corner booths and put a staircase in. 
  • I shamelessly reused the same bar posters by Around the Sims all over the place because I really liked them and I REALLY like Guinness. I even broke my Simlish-only rule for them because I was too lazy to figure out how to make my own recolors. Maybe some day… (Sidebar: If anyone knows of other good bar posters, particularly in Simlish, I’m all ears!)
  • The bar shelf is a TS3 conversion by HafiseAzale, and at the time of building/packaging I used the default color. However, withlovefromsimtown recently shared some recolors (one of which matches the bar and counters perfectly, I’ve already checked in-game). Definitely worth a look if you want the whole thing to be matchy-matchy. 
  • IT TOOK SO LONG TO FIGURE OUT A CONFIGURATION WHERE ALL OF THE INSTRUMENTS WOULD BE ACCESSIBLE
  • The name was taken from this song. ❤

Not the most ground-breaking feat as far as architectural design goes (I like big boxes and I cannot lie), but I think it’s rather cozy. 🙂 I also firmly believe that nothing beats an Irish pub at Christmastime, hence the liberal use of lights and garland throughout.

UPDATE 6/4/16 – Some of my lots apparently carry the Super Duper Hug Bug. If you are unfamiliar with the bug, you can read more about it HERE. If you don’t already have it, BoilingOil’s No Sim Loaded will prevent the bug from “infecting” your game. If you already have the bug, the mod will suppress it. Either way, it’s a must-have.
