Le Sorelle D'Oro - New World WIP - Early Stages
Thought I'd share a few (very terrible) pictures of my upcoming world, Le Sorelle D'Oro (which means "The Golden Sisters" in Italian ) I'm not quite sure where I'm going with this world- it was originally a trio of small neighborhoods in one, all based on significant parts of Italy. But my current plan is to create a vintage style town/city settlement with a mix of Italian themes and a bit of California
So far, I've created the mountains that surround the world, the beachfront, and started on the beachside science center.
Spoiler:
^ The entrance to the dome is via an elevator which leads to a basement, and then another elevator below ground which takes sims to the inside of the dome.
Please forgive me for how early in development I've decided to unveil it, I'm just too excited
I need ideas on what to put in the science center dome, because originally I had a pool and fountain, but I wanted to save a pool for further down the beach. I'm thinking flowers and trees like in Bridgeport?

That butterfly dome was an epic amazing idea for Bridgeport. One of the few good things about the town. Maybe you could have a garden or something with plants that aren't native to the beach? A miniature pine forest by the waterfront with picnicking areas or a BBQ would be fun.

I started with having loads of trees but couldn't find similar looking ones that could fill the whole dome. I'd like something involving that sort of thing, though, possibly including some beach elements too

This is what I got up to today:
Spoiler:
I added a pier (and the dome's been filled with a pond of semi-rare fish and vegetation) This started out as a beach shack-style shop, but is looking rather generic up to now. Obviously it needs cluttering up a little bit

I think all of the store stuff is from Ambitions I just wish you could use store stuff in CaW, although it wouldn't help when I want to upload the world. I just prefer having more furniture options than the minuscule amount you get even with all the EPs and SPs installed.

You mean stuff from the Sims Store? What do you mean? Do you mean using store stuff in EIG? Because I'm able to do that.

As much as I know that uploading a world with store stuff isn't a very player-approved.. I'd say go for it. In most cases (if I remember correctly) the store stuff gets replaced by the original furniture and whatnot. But I will stand corrected. Anyways, as a CAW creator myself I just didn't hold back because I didn't want to let the basic EA furniture hinder my creativity when I could use store items.
Then again, I am creating my world mostly for myself and I wouldn't mind re-releasing a version with no store items in it.

I'm thinking of doing that too, there are too many sets (like the Jazz Age and the bits from Barnacle Bay) that would go brilliantly with my world, so I may go for it.

And yeah, none of it shows, I thought it was meant to be like that? Maybe I've accidentally deleted my content?
EDIT: I've reinstalled all my content, and it's appearing in the game but not in EIG. Really confused, could anyone help?

Oh that's a bit odd. I'm not sure I would know what to do to help. You don't have "Run without Custom Content" checked or anything, do you?

Not on the launcher, because the content is all there in the normal game. It's a little annoying because I like the Dr Pepper theatre rabbit hole more than the original
