Sims Immobilier - The first virtual French real estate for the Sims

 

The Sims's district is divided in 10 portions. When you download a house, you need to remember the number where it will take place in the game. When you put this house in your "Houses" directory, it will automatically replace the house with this number...

 

The houses that you download from Internet hav to be installed in the "Houses" directory of your computer :
Maxis > Les Sims > UserData > Houses

When you have done this, the new house will automatically replaces, the next time you play the game, the other house which was initially planned in this place.

Warning ! Every house which hasn't been saved in another directory will be lost irreparably.

Maxis > Les Sims > UserData > Houses

Wallpaper Tool : The wallpaper allows you to personalize your interiors and to differentiate the rooms of your house. When you start the game, you already have a lot of wallpaper, but it's possible to download others from the Internet. Quite a few websites offer you wallpaper resources.

L'OUTIL ESCALIER

Stairs Tool : The stairs allow you to create houses with few floors. I don't know the maximum number of floors which is possible to build. You'll see... Be careful, the place which is just under the stairs is unusable.

Fireplace Tool : Fireplace is used to increase the room's temperature. But altough it is romantic, the fireplace is very dangerous. don't put a bed just near it for example; Sims can sometimes be a little stupid and they do all sorts of silly things. Of course, the fireplace has to be placed near a wall.

L'OUTIL JARDIN

Garden Tool : The garden is very important for the Sims because it contributes to that they feel good at home. But be careful, flowers are beautiful but it needs upkeep. If you don’t care, it will die. If your Sims have a lot of money, he can hire a gardener. It exists additional objects which can be download from the official website of the game.

L'OUTIL SOL

Floor Tool : Floor, like wallpaper, allows you to personalize your interiors and to differentiate the rooms of your house. You also can find a lot of floors on the Internet. Click SHIFT and left click of your mouse to cover the entire floor, and CTRL to reset one.

L'OUTIL PORTE

Door Tool : The doors also constitute keys elements of your construction. If one Sims is placed just in front of a door and that another Sims want to use it, this second one won’t be very happy. Think to build two doors to the important rooms (bathroom…).

L'OUTIL FENETRE

Windows Tool : Windows also are very important in the game, because they allow to the light to enter in the rooms of your house. The Sims very like the light.

L'OUTIL TOIT

Roof Tool : There are three sorts of roof in the game. The high, the medium and the practically flat. But, these forms aren’t very important because they are just aesthetic consideration. In fact, the chosen form doesn’t have no impact in the game.

L'OUTIL MAIN

Hand Tool : The hand tool is used to move some objects which disturb you when you add a modification to your house. It also allows you to move some furniture if you want to change its situation.

 

If you think you are wrong in your current construction, you can reset the last actions, or come back where you were, with this two buttons :

Annuler... Rétablir...
