Sul sul!
It's time to get nostalgic.
With this update of my Sims (2000) world, you can revisit every lot and every household from the Sims 1 in an open world experience in the Sims 3! This addition adds the Magic Town and Vacation Island area's, making this a complete Sims 1 world, that includes every Sims 1 neighborhood.
I apologize for the long delay in releases this update for this Sims 3 world. My real life has gotten very hectic, so it's been hard to make time for this project. I hope it was worth the wait and that you'll enjoy reliving the Sims 1 in this Sims 3 world.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Special thanks to @bunnybananasims @virtual-hugs @madraynesims @melisanne19 @thesims1master @ohrudi on Tumblr and @OhBeeel and @Andr3sL0K0 on Twitter for helping me with beta testing! And Martine and Simsimillian at MTS for providing lovely terrain paints <3

Get the world + save file here: SFS download
If you enjoy my work, you can support me on Ko-fi <3 Thanks!
This world was made with every Sims 3 expansion pack (except for Into The Future), in addition the the High End Loft and Town Life stuff packs. You can install the world even if you do not own all of these packs. But the save file (which includes all of the premade sims, ghosts and some fixes) can only be played if you have all of these packs installed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
To everyone who has installed and played the previous version of my Sims (2000) world: to install this version, you'll need to uninstall the old one. If you have an active save file with the previous (1st) version of this world, please backup any households and builds you want to save to your library. Because that save file will probably become unplayable after installing the updated world file.
I have one little request… If you know any other long time simmers, please share this project with them. I would love it if as many people as possible get a chance to enjoy this nostalgic experience <3
Also, if you enjoy setting up high quality screenshots, I'd love to see them and use them to promote this world.

CHAMPIGNAC : A NEW SIMS 3 WORLD
Champignac is a fully living Frenchy suburbia World based on Champs-les-Sims and has nothing to do with a vacation place ... Well, nothing is not really the right word ;)
Back in 2016/2017, when we began to think how we could remade Champs-les-Sims, we didn't know really what kind of world we wanted to do. We named the project : Sims de Nimes. Then, because we were on other projects ( such as sims 4 k-mods ) we left Sims de Nimes somewhere in the pipes.
We made Oaksoak Hollow ( based on Mystic Falls ), we made Eureka Valley ( a world between tech and classic life ) and we left behind the Sims 4 because, well ... too long to explain. :D
So, it was time to get out of the box our old project of Sims de Nimes ... During this time, some talented creators re-made Champs-les-Sims with their own vision, more oldy or more city life like, or more like Sunset Valley ... All those versions are interesting, but we wanted something else. And so, is born Champignac !
Tumblr media
If Champignac is a true living suburbia world, it is too a quite rural world, almost a village with :
37 Community Lots
36 Residential Lots
10 Medieval Towers all around the town :)
:)
Tumblr media
In addition, it remains few Empty Lots, differently sized to suit whatever you wish ... So, let's say Champignac is a french-not-so-little-town where life is slowly flowing and dynamic at the same time, perfect for families and Sims looking for a different lifestyle :)
A typical downtown and outskirts, full of old buildings and southern architecture, a joyful mix between south-east and south-west housing, with a touch of something more northener ( but don't tell the citizens; it's a sure way to be frowned upon ) ... After all they worked hard to keep Champignac as it is!
People living in Champignac are quite glad of it. Sure, teenagers dream of foreign lands, but they are not too eager to leave.
Tumblr media
Once, the townies of Champignac were grumpy because Champs-les-Sims was so more popular than their hometown ... After all, everybody went to Champs-les-Sims, stayed there, made nectar, drove a Kenspa, flirted with locals, or … anyway! Tourists had a full experience in Champs-Les-Sims and weren't interested in visiting any other city. Champignac, the official twin city, didn't benefit from any international exchanges, and was left anonymous, far from fame and glory. As unreachable as the Eiffel Tower seen from Champignac ... until ...
In February 29th of a certain year, a distant descendant of Marquis de Landgraab lost his way on the road to Champs-les-Sims and landed in Champignac. Instantly, he fell in love with the town.
He saw an always growing vegetation, a Monastery full of secrets, the familial beach ( yes, there is a beach in Champignac ), the forgotten obelisk, the shop keepers full of stories, the well preserved houses, the green fields and the paved streets, the true Café Catane and a remaining wild fauna running here and there ... He saw perfection !
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For a time, the townies of Champignac experienced fame and glory. But how exhausting it was! Tourists not really caring about the legacy of the kiosk owner, the monks overwhelmed, the museum director who couldn't find enough teenagers to help ... Even the fishes were exhausted! Hard times indeed ... Happily, this descendant of Marquis de Landgraab met someone, somewhere, and moved out, far far away from Champignac. Celebrities said their last goodbyes and slowly, life, as it should be, was back :) The townies and City Council learned from that experience that they very much preferred not to be as famous as Champs-les-Sims ...
Life in Champignac was relatively calm again when suddenly, a global health crisis emerged and the Simvid-18 pandemic hit many many people ... Anxiety swept through the villages and the small towns, including Champignac of course ... With an aging population, residents became increasingly concerned about the well-being of their neighbors and the future of the city.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shop owners and farmers who were already considering retirement were now faced with the daunting task of deciding whether to continue their businesses in such uncertain times. The entire world seemed to come to a halt, leaving everyone in Champignac wondering who would carry the torch and ensure the future.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Surprisingly, the youngsters that only came sporadically for holidays, moved back to Champignac. Fearful of living in a crowded city and eager to gather with family members, they came to the old town with friends. After all, there were spare bedrooms in most houses!
Tumblr media
When the restrictions were lifted, many were reluctant to leave. Going back to a stressful life and fast-paced city wasn't enticing anymore. Most decided to turn their lives around. They took up the florist shop or asked for a job transfer ... So, life emerged again :) Champignac is now a thriving town where you have everything you wish for and nothing more.
Champignac is blessed with old churches turned into bars or wineries, old palazzi that are inspiring, and small boutiques as gathering places ...
Tumblr media
Winters and autumns are short, while spring and summer are long. Come and live among thousands of old buildings, walk on streets Roman soldiers once trod upon, see treasures from foreign campaigns, and benefit from the perfect blend of country living and town living.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Remember ... With its unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, Champignac offers the Sims a captivating and enriching experience. From the stunning architecture to the delectable cuisine, every aspect of this town reflects the South of France’s intoxicating charm.
Are you ready to move in Champignac ?
blackgryffin \o/
IMPORTANT : We advice STRONGLY to begin with the half-populated SavaGame provided in addition to the World itself ...
DO NOT FORGET to download the CC of Champignac we provide on our website too ! for more information, see the 2 posts below ;)
Have fun !

Sapphire Post
An old colonial listening post in the heart of a crater lake.
Okay so while I'm in CAW how about a new world download? I actually made it about a year ago because I wanted to try out @chojrak-making-things and @simaddix's CAW resources. So this does require a bit of CC (107 mb) . I've included it because simsfileshare was being a bitch about downloading them today and I didn't want ya'll to deal with that. Hopefully Chojrak and Simsaddix don't hate me too much for it.
Details: 1280x1280 map size 33 lots total Small lot sizes as that is my preference these days. Probably requires most EP's Lots of collectable spawners Includes CAWfiles for personal edits Requires CC (included) Heavily Playtested with my eternal faves Sunny and Ollie.

Hi guys!
So, big progress made in Voegoel les Mouettes this week. I completed the beach side of the Island... So, in order:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, on the extreme right we have the cheap (but legal) accomodations for tourists. Talking tents and basic comfort here, the kind where you better carry your own TP roll... For the Frenchies, say hello to Patrick Chirac on the way...
Tumblr media
Next, some more serious business:
Tumblr media
The oysters rack and the fish farm!
Tumblr media
I am quite proud of that one, actually, it turned out well, I think
Tumblr media
Nest, we're entering farming gountry, and on this precise place, methinks scenic ruins (thanks to Sandy at @aroundthesims) and a nectary because this is France and we're not joking with important stuff like wine (StopcallingitnectarTYVM)
Tumblr media
A stone throw away, a local museum
Tumblr media
Looks like the Vogoelesiens have quite a long line of ancestors!
a bit more farming on the side...
Tumblr media
That is it for this week! As you can see, making good progress... but this is the fun part, once that do there will be the fine details, the lighting, the road panels and all the small (annoying) stuff like fine detailing the routing and stuff
Anyhwo, tell me what you think, as always, I'm open to suggestions if you have some
See ya'll next week!

Piece of Paradise by Visty6
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Do you like elaborate Victorian architecture? Then this might be a world for you. Alternatively, are you OK with utterly destroying elaborate Victorian architecture and creating a beautiful natural environment for fairies or merpeople instead? Then this also might be a world for you. :)
In general, I really like this creator's worlds. They're usually small, (mostly) empty, often roadless, and they're always beautifully decorated with a riot of dense, colorful flora and pretty waterfalls and such. If you like such worlds, I highly recommend that you take a look at the other worlds on this creator's blog, too, as well as the lots they have up for download. I use this creator's worlds often to make naturalistic fairies-only worlds, which is something I like to play sometimes. They're perfect for that.
This one, however, is suitable for humans because it has houses and rabbitholes and such. However, as you might have guessed, I have also used it as a dedicated world for merpeople, after bulldozing all the existing lots, creating a more natural living environment, and adding some diving lots. The mers swim between the islands to get where they're going, and because the islands are close together, it doesn't take too long to swim between them, so it works beautifully.
The world's download page also has a lot of pics of the world, so you can look at them there, too. (As usual, the title of this post is a link to the world's download page.) I'm not sure if/how those pics are edited and/or what sort of lighting mods and such the creator used for their pics, if any, so I'm posting pics taken in my own game with my lighting mod and my minimalist Reshade and such. Between the two sets of pics, hopefully you'll get an idea of how the place might look in your own game. :)
Note: This world does use some CC, all made by the world's creator. I'm not going to say it's required, because it's outdoor plants, but if you don't have them, you will lose some of the "look" of the lots. The CC isn't included in the world but is rather linked to on the world's download page. However, when you go to those pages, you'll likely get a security warning from your browser/antivirus. It may or may not be false positives. Either way, my computer is like Fort Knox, so I just barge right through. :)
I don't generally reupload non-Exchange worlds with these overviews, especially not for creators who are still active (though Visty has moved on to TS4), but I'm making an exception here because of the possible security issues. So, I'm reuploading a folder with the CC in .package format along with a .world file for the world. The file is here. The .world file goes in your install files under GameData - Shared - NonPackaged - Worlds, while the CC .package files go in with all your other CC. I made it so that the CC is separate from the .world file, so that you can decide whether or not you want to install the CC. I recommend that you do if you're going to keep the world as-is -- if you're going to tear it all down, obviously you won't need the CC :) -- and I installed the CC to take the pics on this post, but it's up to you. It's only 10 files, total, nine plants and an arbor. The plants are mostly climbing roses for walls/columns/porches and roses that drape over the arbor. So, if you like Victorian/cottage-y kind of feels, the CC would probably be useful to you in general.
More info and pics behind the cut!
Here are Edit Town images of the islands with lots on them, pre-built and otherwise:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And here is a map view image that includes the two community rabbithole lots:
Tumblr media
According to its download page and Google Translate (because the download page is in Czech, and I don't speak Czech), the world requires World Adventures, Pets, Supernatural, Seasons, and University Life. I don't think it has any Store content. The most important EP to have is Supernatural because each island in the world has a LLAMA box or two on it. So unless you want your sims constantly using water taxis to get anywhere, you'll want Supernatural installed for this world. Plus, many of the rabbitholes and much of the build/buy stuff is from Supernatural.
The world is roadless. There are footpaths on some of the larger islands, but mostly you're meant to travel to the different lots via the LLAMA boxes. Because of the nature of the world, I would recommend using NRaas Register to disable strays and wildlife in the world. They will just get stuck if you don't.
I'm not sure how big the world is overall. I think it might be 1024x1024, but whatever the case, the playable area is a collection of small islands clustered together, as you can see in the pics. Thanks to combo rabbitholes, the world does manage to squeeze in most of the base game rabbitholes. It doesn't have a diner, a stadium, or a mausoleum. It doesn't have an equestrian center, but horses wouldn't be practical in this world, anyway. And it doesn't have the Supernatural rabbitholes, but those and a mausoleum are easy enough to plop down somewhere, if you want them.
The world has no spawners except for fish. Even minor pets do not spawn. This is typical of Visty's worlds, for whatever reason. So, if you want collectibles and minor pets and such, you'll need to add spawners yourself.
There are 15 pre-placed lots, total. Other than the two rabbithole lots, they are residential or empty. There are six pre-built residential lots (If Google translated the Czech on the download page correctly, the residential lots were made by a different creator) and seven empty lots to do with as you please. Most of the pre-built lots are fully furnished/decorated, but one is completely empty and one is semi-empty inside.
You might want to use some of the empty lots to build/place other kinds of community lots -- Like a graveyard, for instance -- because the world has none of them. It is also possible to add more lots, especially on the islands that have none and especially if you want to add some lots that extend into the water and then build some ports/houseboats or over-the-water lots on stilts. But, there are also some spots on some of the islands where you could squeeze in small lots completely on land, too, if you need more lots. Such added lots will likely not be flat, however. The islands that only have pre-placed empty lots on them already have LLAMA boxes placed off-lot, in the world, like so:
Tumblr media
So, you don't have to worry about adding them to the lots you build/place buildings on the pre-placed empty lots.
Here are exterior pics of the pre-built residential lots:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Personally, while the lots are creatively built, lavishly landscaped, and very pretty to look at, I'm not in love with them. Partly, this is because I detest Victorian-style architecture but it's mostly because the houses just don't seem practical for playing purposes. Those that are fully furnished and decorated are cluttered and pretty cramped inside, with sunken spaces and small rooms that I can see sims getting stuck in. Or, it's likely that a pair of sims will have to walk a bit to find a spot that's large enough that they can do the routing necessary to have a conversation. Plus, about half of them only have one bedroom, despite being large. So, it would maybe be great if you're playing the world as a retirement island for wealthy elders or if you're just using it as a set/backdrop for period storytelling, but for regular playing with families? I'm thinking not. This is why I was happy to bulldoze the lots and reimagine the entire world, but maybe it will be your cup of tea just as it is.
Here are some random pics of some of the interiors of the fully-furnished/decorated houses, so you can see something of what I mean:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here is a view of the lot with most of the rabbitholes:
Tumblr media
And I think that's about all I have to say. We'll finish off with more random scenery.

Sul sul!
The past months I have been working on a very exciting project. I made a world for the Sims 3 that has all neighborhoods from the Sims 1 included! When it is done it will basically be open-world Sims 1!  
I cannot wait to actually play in it. But for now I have still got a lot of building to do.
Tumblr media
I have shared a WIP version of the world file earlier this month, so that you can check out the general plan. Who knows, if you install it you might run into some issues with it, which will be very good for me to know!  You can download it here. A little note, this version only has the Studio Town lots in it.
I will do an ‘official’ release of this Sims 3 world when I have completed all lots from Sim Lane, Old Town, Downtown and Studio Town. (36/50 lots have been built so far)
A final version that also includes all lots from Vacation Island and Magic Town will be released later on. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I play the Sims on a pretty old laptop and my visuals specs are very low. If you want to help me with taking some pretty screenshots of this world, please let me know! I could definitely use the help!
Another subject I could use help with is populating the world. I cannot make a single sim in CAS without the game crashing. That makes it very difficult for me to make a lively populated world. If you’re really into the Sims 1 and CAS and you’re interested in helping me out, please let me know! <3
That’s all for now. Have a lovely week! 
P.S. My main place to go to to talk about the Sims is Twitter. It’s just what I’m used to. If you want to keep closer track on how this project is developing, this it the place to look!

...
CHAMPIGNAC World ( aka Sims de Nimes ) is coming in few days ;)
If we put the fantastic gameplay apart, ALL Sims 3 Worlds are about AMBIANCE ... and good Sims 3 Worlds are more about ambiance than everything else ;) It's a quest which doesn't end :D
Champignac ( codename : Sims de Nimes ) is a project we began a long ago ( 2018 ) and left rest in a corner of our CAW files. Paused, but never forgotten. Frankly, it was long due and time to finish.
Champignac is a French true suburbia living world based on Champs-les-Sims but cleaned up of its vacation stuff ... So you will get everything of a Maxis standard World ( the ice cream truck, the university guy ) and of course the ability to go to every vacation world ( including Champs-les-Sims )
We redid almost everything : the grass textures, the pavement and road textures, etc ... We added richness to this world with singular and very interesting stuff ...
80 lots are available. Both community and residential. We redid the native lots almost from the ground and used them for something else, except Place des Oliviers which kept its initial function and placement.
We used Votenga @ MTS who converted many things from Sims Medieval such as old castle tower we used a lot or the fantastic St Gall Monastery from efolger997 @ MTS we transformed a bit to get an incredible Winery lot ( yes, there is a Winery ... gosh, this is France after all ) ;)
We used lots from Sims 3 creators and we made many others with great care and as low as possible cheating build options ... We are not bold at Sims houses creation but we tried to make as diverse as possible in our constructions, but always staying in the guide of specific South of France style and design. Anyway, this will be to you to add your own vision and architectural art to Champignac ! ;)
ALL 80 lots are French flavored ( red terracotta roofs, white stone ) to get a unique style for a unique world :)
Nestled in the heart of the charming South of France, Champignac is a town adorned with the alluring flair of Mediterranean culture. As the Sims step into this picturesque town, they are immediately enveloped by the warmth of the sun, and the vibrant colors that paint the streets ...
No false antic stuff here. No false image from the 60's ... It is a fully contemporary world but with its own old stuff. Champignac boasts a unique blend of history and modernity all together :)
The ambiance is one of relaxation and leisure, inspired by the leisurely lifestyle of the South of France. Here, residents take the time to savor the pleasures of life, indulging in delicious cuisine, delightful conversations under the shade of trees. The town's bustling markets offer an array of fresh produce, colorful fabrics, enticing the Sims to immerse themselves in the lively atmosphere.
With its unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, Champignac offers the Sims a captivating and enriching experience. From the stunning architecture to the delectable cuisine, every aspect of this town reflects the South of France's intoxicating charm.
Many more details to come with the coming download post ...
So ... Stay tuned ;) ( and always safe )

Mini-Video Preview of San Marina
So, I guess the next world slated for release by The Sims Depot will be San Marina. This is a world I've been working on forever and is about 80% done. I struggled with it because I was getting burnt out on worldbuilding, as well as hit a creative wall. Finally getting and installing University gave me a burst of inspiration, so I've been burning the midnight oil recently. I'm also eager to move on to Stilwater, which is the next WIP that looks to be released this year (Godwilling).
I believe this will be out by the summer. I'm currently in the process of finishing some of the lots and moving a couple of others around. My concern about it is that it's going to be a little too large for some, so I suppose I'll have to do a Lite version of San Marina as well.

Celebrating spring in style! (one hopes)
Happy Easter you guys! Beggining of spring with some chilly moments... wich I savor because not a fan of heat waves we get every year now.
Now, I told you last time that the CAW bug got my ass once more, the naughty little bugger... Wanna see?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, I know. The water color (and the sky, come to think of it) will have to change, but my game is still on Pycassos Island setting... this world, however... let's say it's a place around Jersey/Guernesey and leave it at that, ok?
It'll get a name once I can think of a suitably bad French pun Tedhi at @franglishetchocolat hasn't commited yet (tough job!)
So, this is a medium sized island. I like my big worlds, don't get me wrong, but this time I wanted a smaller thing so I can really concentrate on the details and not get tired midway.
Tumblr media
Of course, that means doing without the trains... and mostly the train stations, but one must make sacrifices, I guess.
Well, at least it will have a nice big port... one of many.
Tumblr media
And an interesting town center. It's not very visible here, but that place is on 4 different levels. Going to be interesting to build in there!
It is also going to be a very sea and water oriented place:
Tumblr media
We have salt marshes
Tumblr media
And oysters beds I forgot to take a picture of because me stupid.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A whole series of waterfalls with a nice foresty park. I have plans for a fish farm... and if I can find a way manage something like the "Hortillonages d'Amiens" somewhere (look it up, it is so very pretty!)
As always, I am open to suggestions and ideas, if you have any, no matter how strange or "impossible".
I like a challenge.
Tumblr media
Here, have some daffodils for Spring, and see you all soon!
