Description: Church campuses often have beautiful monuments, most of which are too difficult for me to create on gmax. Luckily, a cross is not complicated, but still meaningful to your Christian sims, especially as Christmas approaches. This landmark is built and maintained by the faithful at no cost to your city. Stats: Plop (bulldoze): 0 (33) Lot size:1x1 Wealth: Unassigned Water: 0 Electricity: 0 Pollution: 0/0/0/0 @ 0/0/0/0 Dependencies: The number of times Jesus sinned. -

What sort of nutcase town has not just one, but TWO stores, dedicated to selling Christmas decorations 365 days a year? Twee-obsessed Ottawa, of course! 1.Tinseltown Christmas Emporium (red) - One of two stores in town selling Christmas decorations every day of the year 2. Marie Antoinette (pink) -Selling "shabby chic" And, no, I am not kidding - they really do exist and, yes, they really are painted in those disgusting, garish, tasteless colours. (Check it out if you don't believe me!)-

Happy holidays, Community! Whipped this famous house up, inspired by the Christmas classic, Home Alone (1 & 2). Certain liberties were taken and as usual my lotting is sub-par, so please feel free to re-lot to your desired aesthetic. - R$$$ Low, Medium, High density zones - Chicago tileset - No dependencies - DarkNite version only -

Advent It’s the holiday season. And, since 2020 has been, well… 2020, Santa is putting everyone on the nice list just for putting up with The Longest Year. Ponies for everyone! And, when you live on the small Planet B-612, the best place to get in the holiday spirit is the northern mountain town of Tillyland. Let’s see what festivities they have going on this year. Nothing says Christmas like a ride on the Griswold Family Holiday Train! It’s a family tradition. This year, Cousin Eddie is driving the train. Katzenzungen Market has a lovely outdoor skating area very festively decorated. Inside, you can warm up with Busscastle hot chocolates and katzenzungen. This year’s winner of the ice sculpting contest is Roscoe P. Coltrane III, who carved an enormous stag to put you in the holiday spirit. And also to remind you of who is eating your flowers in the garden. Neighborhood kids built a giant snowman. And I do mean giant! Anything to avoid reading that assignment for literature class! Santa’s Christmas Village is a hotbed of winter shopping. Lots of little shops, each staffed by elves who like to make toys and other stuff. It’s next door to Tillyland Arena, home to the planet’s only professional ice hockey team. The Ice Cats are hosting the Springfield Isotopes today. The Busscastle Chocolates holiday candy store is (conveniently) across the street, adjacent to Snackasaurus Rex, the snack food store. You probably heard of those hotels or restaurants or bars made of ice. Ice Capades Chalet is a full-service hotel made entirely of ice. It has several winter sports activities available on site. It’s cool fun that won’t melt your wallet! Tillyland always has a holiday tree out to make things more festive. And a tree farm so you can bring home the magic with you. Hurry! Buy now while selection is best. There is skating al fresco and don’t forget snowmobile rentals available if you like outdoor fun. If you skate as well as me, they have skates for rent with training wheels too! The area looks like a fun place to spend a cold winter’s night out. Be sure to take a lot of selfies by the Festivus Pole in the center of the skating rink! Need some more natural fun? You can always hang out with the polar bears at Gentle Ben’s Bear World. As you can see, Tillyland has just about everything you could want to get your holidays going… and a great way to kick 2020 to the curb!

Hi, I've a problem with two Christmas specials. 1. Christmas Plaza https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1947-christmas-plaza/ 2. Nexis Xmas Magic https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1884-nexis-xmas-magic/ I only get brown boxes instead of the Christmas trees. It seems that both of them don't have any dependencies.

If you’d like your game to be more Christmassy, here’s how you do it. There seems to be 2 categories for Christmas files: files that are explicitly Christmassy all year round and general files that look Christmassy at Christmas time (Christmas-enabled or Christmas-compatible). Also, there are PEG Christmas Development Kit compatible files and ones that don't use the Kit. Note: I have not tested these files for functionality, bugs, etc. Peg’s Christmas Development Kit & Compatible Files is a major mod that adds Christmas related props to compatible BATs. It’s set up to be only Christmassy at Christmas time; the rest of the year the props either disappear or are general (billboards, trees, etc.) If you’d like to make Christmas Development Kit-compatible lots be Christmassy 365, use the mod directly below. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/19114-peg-christmas-365/ (Note: I've seen dependency references to "PEG Xmas-Dev-Kit 205". I'm assuming it's been replaced by or is another name for PEG Christmas Development Kit.) is Christmassy 365 days a year. To change the audio when you get near the village, Peg has created a plugin with other choices. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/14379-peg-mtp-santas-village-alternate-audio/ (EDIT! This plugin is currently bundled with Santa's Village. There will be a folder that says "Audio" w/ its own Readme. To get the sound to work properly on Santa's Village, read that Readme & follow its instructions.) a.k.a. The Nick O'Laus Toy Company - seems to be vaguely wintery/Christmassy 365, but has additional decoration at Christmas Farmer’s Market most of the year, Christmas Tree lot at Christmas https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=46 - BSC Wish you a Merry Christmas (v1.0) https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1138 - SG Industrial Lots IM1 simgoober (v) requires the kit, but I’m not sure if that’s because it has Christmas stuff or it needs it for some other reason Peg also has some of the Mountain Theme Pack files be Christmas enabled. PEG’s MTP Christmas Enabled Lots https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/30679-peg-mtp-city-portal/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/30682-peg-mtp-civic-center/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/30652-peg-reindeer-rest-stop/ - small empty corral most of the year, Christmas themed at Christmas (and if you check it out on the right date, you may well see Santa's reindeer!) https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1388 - BLS D66 Knickerbockers Christmas Shop BSC (v1.0) needs the MTP but doesn't say it needs the Kit. ********** There’s a number of other Christmas files as well. Also, there’s Christmas-enabled files that don’t seem to require Peg’s kit. Some of them have their own dependencies. Christmas Files https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=542 - St. Nicholas Parks are Christmassy 365. They are a dependency for other Christmas-enabled files. has Mac-compatible Nightlighting! https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=54 - Frasier Wood Christmas Tree Farm - seems only vaguely Christmassy, would be suitable for year-round agricultural use. Contributes to the BSC Rewards System as a Nursery. https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=418 - CCPW Park Walk a.k.a. Christmas Canal Park Walk Santa's Workshop is a part of the following CAM Industrial pack. Both of the following 2 files are required (and the CAM as well, obviously): https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1140 & https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1139 This may be the same file as above just separately and not requiring the CAM, but uncertain. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1947-christmas-plaza/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33414-narrow-functional-pedestrian-laneways-and-plazas/ - the sets of buildings with laneways have multi colored lights strung between the buildings over the laneways. Unclear if that's all year round or just at Christmas. (Either way, it could enhance a Christmas city but doesn't necessarily look explicitly Christmassy on its own, so it could be used for general use.) Christmas-enabled/Christmas-compatible Files Small plaza rest of year, turns into Christmas Market at Christmas. Is a dependency for some other Christmas-enabled files. (Edit: After installing this & all its dependencies, for some reason, it still doesn't show up as a market in December. YMMV.) Newman Inc. Files https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=390 - Newman Inc Main City Library https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=388 - Newman Inc Courthouse https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1089 - Newman Inc CCPW Cal's Version (v1.0) requires CCPW Park Walk BSC Christmas Files https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/17486-bsc-wish-you-a-merry-xmas-v3/ - 2 parks that turn Christmassy. One is a park lot with grass and a billboard that changes at Christmas; the other is a plaza with a Santa Claus fountain that ices over in the winter. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/17455-bsc-wish-you-a-merry-xmas-v2/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/17420-bsc-wish-you-a-merry-xmas/ (Note: the dependencies for these can no longer be found individually, but are available in the St. Nicholas Parks.) https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/29036-telus-plaza/ - Telus Plaza has beautiful Christmas trees on the side of (one of the) Telus building(s) at night, all year round- https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2557 - SFBT Nikolaikirche gets a Christmas market in the plaza out front at Christmas time. Requires SFBT Christmas Market https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2776 - JENXPARIS Palais du Luxembourg (v1.0) gets a Christmas tree at Christmas time. Requires St. Nicholas Parks https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=3214 - Dutch Opera House (v1.0a) gets a Christmas tree at Christmas time (but requires Maxis Rockefeller Center Reward BAT as a dependency for it) https://community.simtropolis.com/SC4-maxis-files/ has it (Separate Mac compatible & Windows versions, but only available bundled with others for Mac) https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/20989-macys-department-store/- Macy's Department Store gets decorated at Christmastime https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33033-debenhams-department-store/ - Debenham's Department Store also gets decorated at Christmastime (according to the creator in a message) https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33930-david-jones/ - David Jones receives the same decorations; flowers, buntings, and Happy New Year! https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/33944-marcus-clark-building/ - Marcus Clark is decorated in the same style. https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2043 - Myer Department Store gets it as well (same) https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/24595-ucc-central-park/ - UCC Central Park changes with the seasons, which means holiday decorations in Winter, as well as other content in the other 3 seasons. The entire Peg Utopia Mall Canal series is Christmas Enabled: https://community.simtropolis.com/tags/mall canal/ The following 4 files (which are all versions of the Memorial City Park) get a visit from Santa Claus. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/32347-memorial-city-park-v1/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/32348-memorial-city-park-v2-with-carpark-lh/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/32349-memorial-city-park-v2-with-carpark-rh/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/32350-memorial-city-park-v3-with-stream/ https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1895-crazy-petes-xmas-tree-lot/ - Crazy Pete's Xmas Tree Lot fits the concept of Christmas, but I don't know if it's decorated for it. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1901-maudes-reindeer-ranch/ - Maude's Reindeer Ranch also fits the concept but doesn't seem to be decorated (except for snow on the ground). This would also work in agricultural settings. https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1884-nexis-xmas-magic/ - Christmas tree @ Christmas, lights the rest of the year https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/30164-meh-rockefeller-center-growables/ - uncertain if this is Christmas compatible, but maybe because original file is, but it has been relotted so I’m not sure if the Christmas tree made it to this lot. Props/Dependencies https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/11421-porkie-props-vol1-european-street-accessories/ - is a prop file that has some props that are decorated between december 15th and january 14th. So if a BAT calls for these props, and it uses the decorated props, it'll change. (And if you're a BATter who wants to add Christmas cheer to your lots, use these props.) https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1393 - JENX Tree Props Vol01 BSC (v1.0) has Christmas enabled trees. (IDK what Lots include these... if you know, please comment below.) FWIW, I have been unable to locate BSC Props Holiday Park RT Vol 01 anywhere, but everyone says it's included in the St. Nicholas Parks, so I recommend simply installing that to use as the dependency for the files that require the Holiday Park props. BSC Props Holiday Park SG Vol 01 MAY be included in BSC Textures Vol 02, as a file requiring the holiday park props linked to this instead, but no guarantees on that. However, we know for SURE that the St. Nicholas Parks includes BSC Props Holiday Park SG Vol 01, so that's probably your best bet. - https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/1932-holidays-at-the-white-house/ - this White House *replaces* the one in the Landmarks menu, but has a Christmas tree http://descargas.capitalsim.net/?sitio=csc&descarga=3611 - is a Christmas themed super pack from a Spanish language SC4 website - Finally, there's this forum post by Shadow where they say they released their own Christmas Market but I've never been able to find the file. If you have it, please let me know. https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=4366.0 And here's a map shaped like a Christmas Tree: I’ll admit, this list may not be complete. If you know of any other Christmassy or Christmas-compatible files, please reply with the name and a link below and I’ll be sure to update this file! Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Hi everyone, Welcome to the lakeside villages of Winterthur and Thonon-les-Bains and the alpine village of Villers-le-Lac. I thought I'd share these Christmas villages in case anyone else enjoys the intersection of the Snowfall expansion with the Christmas season as much as I do. My asset collections are heavily tilted towards an American aeshetic with a smattering of European-style buildings, and so these villages reflect that. Together with the hilly terrain, I guess I'm imagining some place in New England or the eastern provinces of Canada. I have plenty of other things to do still before Christmas, and so the text descriptions are going to be fairly thin, and hopefully that isn't in conflict with whatever standard has been set for these journals. This first three posts show scenes from Thonon-les-Bains, which is the second largest of the three villages with 3300 inhabitants. Its key feature as you'll see is a Main Street of the very traditional American (and Canadian?) sort; it even sports diagnonal parking and lightpoles festooned with holiday decorations. I dragged a rail line over to the far back of the town to deliver an occasional few passengers, but more importantly to give me a chance to build a gratuitously good looking stone rail bridge across which a 1940's locomotive can make its way through the snow. And the quick disclaimer that I would never claim to be one of the better city painters around, but I did enjoy building out this map and enjoy everyone else's creations too. If you haven't had the chance to build your own Christmas village this year, perhaps you'll find some enjoyment in seeing mine. One final note, there are some great Christmas assets on the workshop, but if anyone wants to help folks make all of their Christmas village dreams come true in 2019, here are two items I'd put on a wish list - wreaths (especially the very large ones used to adorn buildings) and holiday lights beyond the blinking multicolor ones and the steady blue ones. I improvised by also using the red warning light spaced 1.5+ meters apart (closer than that would make them visible from space), and that kind of worked, but any additional options would be appreciated! Best, John Ok, let's get this started with downtown.
