Lots & Housing
Guidelines for uploading your lots to the site. |
Building:
- No autoroofing! - You know? That horrible nasty roof spawning tool that shipped with the game? Don't use it. No matter how bad you may think you are at roofs, they will ALWAYS be better than something auto-roofed.
- No boxiness - Having a plain box of a house is something anyone can do. Even if you make the most lovely box ever, it won't impress anyone, especially moderators.
- TS3 Lots - Must be furnished due to an option to move in unfurnished.
Post Contents:
- Description - Write a detailed description of your lot. This can include special features of that lot. The idea is to convince a user to download your lot.
- Included CC - Any CC included MUST be properly credited to the original creator. If it is your own CC you must state that you created it.
