Lot Request Thread

[marquisite 2]

OK, This thread is for requesting lots to be made, if 1) you cant get the program working, or 2) its tyo hard/complicated to make.

I will start with one

How about a Magical Lights Show?

So its like the Concert in Park lot I saw earlier. but there is special effect. With lots of lights that come on in the dark. and maybe even I firework if its possible

[marquisite 2]

OH! OH! Fireworks Machine. you place it and it has 24/7 Fireworks and Delete it when you dont wan tthem anymore. if anyone will make it... I tried to make it. it looks kinda ok but will only operate when its New Year. so anyone up for the challange??

[Sharr 6]

For the creatively challenged, this thread is now pinned.

My request.

 

Can anybody build a 64x64 lot?  It doesn't matter what it is, as long as its 64x64 in size.  I tried it with the open grass area, but it didn't come out right.

o how bout one of those pay n park things. but it gives you money depending on the ammount of traffic it gets or loose money if theres no business.

What I think someone should make is a super cow farm, this rollong pastures that the cows graze on.

[dkefman 1]

how about a football (american) stadium? or some sort of hockey/bball stadium.. i dont know how it would be made though haha

[SkyTearer 10]

Yeah, your right, I mean what's a city without a football team?

[MadMan 0]

How about a nice McDonalds or BurgerKing resturaunt?

[marquisite 2]

question is how do I get the mcdonalds logo into the props? lol.

Here's a request to someone who can use the LE and knows how to modd:

 

A trailer park for R$, light or medium residential.  There's single trailers already, but no parks.  Was working an a park tonight, but I gave up since it can't have a unique name and capacity, and would overwrite an existing lot.

Hows about a new airport? with multiple terminals, and runways and gates. And nice entrances.

[theBrad 25]

How about a small private college. Ideally this would be available before the university is offered but perhaps at a later population criteria in addition to high income. This college would be half the size of the university, have only 1000 students but would generate an extremely educated Sims (who have the money).

Does this sound good to anyone?

I noticed someone's Mega Mall they made. I think it was 24x24, but anyway it gave me an idea. Would anyone want to tackle Main Street of Disneyworld? I don't know if there's a castle type building you could use, but it might be interesting.

Alright, in a world of yes and nos, there are some people who get the lot editor and some who don't.

I haven't had the patience or the desire to even play the game lately...so I wouldn't be able to make this myself...but maybe someone could make Chicago's Navy Pier and the Taste of Chicago...

lol

It has been so far impossible to create a different lot sized airport since airports have to be able to upgrade, however, I have yet to find out if I change the lot size on all of them whether or not it will work.....but i doubt it.

[peterkl 3]

I hope we can have a horse-racing stadium/track

[Lord Calidor 0]

Can anyone make a football (soccer) stadium, using Major League Stadium as a template, with all the same YIMBY & stuff? Thnx a lot (no pun intended )

[2truth 11]

yes, cell phone towers and maybe a telephone central office building , nice brick one.

[heraldiii 13]

Sims do need Post Offices.
Can't believe these aren't standard fare in this game.

[DvdGStwrt 5]

Amphibious airport - ya know, flying boats?

Now that would be great - Even a Floating Airport to save land space on ocean front property.

this is not a lot request persay, more of a idea for a cool lot... how bout the maze from the shining like take the maze from the mayor's house and make it white, i think that would look so cool up in some snow peeks with a ski resort... just a thought

[a0z1 3]

i want some sc3ku buildings:

incinerator

desalanation plant ( the sea water thing)

microwave power ( i think it has been made already...

Thank you people!

Lot request: a slope-friendly cemetary replacement. That is, a cemetary that will conform to the terrain, rather than force it to a level square. This would be nice for the ubiquitous hilltop cemetaries that prevail in many parts of the U.S.

[villarule 2]

i want to see some theme parks. They will be pretty hard to make before BAT comes out though
Thanx

[ModelCitizen 2]

I could use some Boston Landmark Lots:

Old North Church

Prudential Building

John Hancock Tower

One International Place

I'm sure theres some buildings in the game that look similar to some of these, especially some of the bigger Commercial skyscrapers. I just haven't had much of a chance to develop big buildings like that yet. I was hoping the Old North Church would be easy to make, but I can't seem to find a prop or building with a front tower thats only about 3 stories high.

I have a request for a particular lot that I believe would be an invaluable addition to the game.

Lot characteristics: Waste Processing Plant

 

A 4x4 or 6x6 lot that uses advanced technology to process 5000 tons of garbage every month.

 

It MUST behave like a landfil in that it shows up in your city garbage capacity graph as 5000 tons. While it can only hold a max of 5000 tons it also degrades 5000 tons per month. It must be transit enabled (so dump trucks drop of garbage at the plant). It does NOT function as a wast to enegy power plant, or like a recycling centre; it is effectively a very rapidly degrading landfill. It produces a small about of air and water pollution (approx. 10% of a coal power plant over the same area)

 

The lot should be fairly futuristic with tubing and processing cylinders and suchlike, and should have the following requirements:

 

Plop cost: $20,000 (that technology aint cheap, see?)

Demolision cost: $5000 (and its tough to clean up the residue afterwards

Monthly cost: 1000                         }

Monthly Power requirement: 1000    } High monthly running cost

Monthly water requirement: 1000    }

 

When queried the lot should give a slider (if possible) to scale monthly funding, and a readout of garbage processed this month (tons), and capacity used. When underfunded, the excess garbage should pile up in the streets.

 

I feel this lot would provide a balanced and realistic solution to the Garbage Problem. Its high cost means that you cant afford it right away, so you still need landfill, while its high monthly cost means its not just an easy solution; also provides incentive to still build recycling centres (though ideally Id like the recycling centre to be edited to process garbage the same way as this building, just with 10% the capacity; so these building act like the other untilities). Waste to Energy handles 10 times as much garbage per month for the same cost, but pollutes 10 times as much. I know which Id rather have.

 

An alternative to going high tech would be to literally make a 6x6 or 8x8 lot that was a huge hole in the gound (REAL landfill), which could absorb 1,000,000 tons of garbage before being full. Garbage would not degrade in this hole, but the hole could be bulldosed (for a very hefty sum) when full to make the land usable again. Just like real landfill. This would have low monthly running cost, not require any wather and very little power.

 

I look forward to the thoughts of other Simtropolis members on these proposals, and (hopefully) someone may take up on my ideas and use them in the near future.
