Beacon Falls-'Full Fat'

Update: Oct/Nov 2011 Beacon Falls has been updated for Seasons, it has also been fixed according to Mootilda's HoodChecker program. There have also been cosmetic changes made, Amy Pembroke has had the spelling of her name altered (it used to be Aimee). Sims supposed to have attended university now have extra wants and slots, their diplomas are either hanging on their walls, or are in their inventories. Some memories have been improved, two aspiration levels have been altered to better represent their storylines. The Monoson house has had a slight makeover, and all uni kitchens now have food serving space!

Beacon Falls 'Full' requires - The base game/ University/ Nightlife/ Open for Business EP's, as well as the Family Fun Stuff SP. (Or any of the later expansion packs)

This contains the main neighborhood, along with the University and downtown already attached. There are custom made townies and downtownies, and lots of families with varying storylines. All SC4 templates used are EA/Maxis originals: the main neighborhood uses the Bluewater template, Balise University uses Aridia, and Lustre Point uses Isla Segundo. Some lots in the Beacon Falls main neighborhood use similarly designed housing, to give a look of completeness. Though these are all decorated and furnished differently.

A number of lots placed in the Lustre Point downtown have been used over again, as before this was to 'fill out' the neighborhood. Some of these are decorated and furnished differently, but others are exact copies. People contributing to the community project were enthusiastic, a lot of it was done 'for the fun of it', and not everything is perfect!
If you want alternatives or replacements for the repeated downtown lots, there are some I've made over, and others that I have updated for use as actual apartments. These updated lots are available separately here on the website. They use items from earlier EP's and SP's, and many require up to Mansion and Gardens. All lots are marked to say which EP's/SP's they need.
If you DON'T have some of those EP's, please check the lots before sending Sims to visit otherwise you may find some walls, floors and furnishing missing when you enter the lot.

Beacon Falls 'Lite'
Beacon Falls 'Lite' requires - The base game/University/Nightlife/Open for Business EP's. (Or any of the later expansion packs)
This version was put together for people having problems downloading the larger file. It contains only the main neighborhood and the main story characters, along with any
sims needed to fill out their story. There are fewer characters and townies than in the full version. This uses the EA/Maxis original Bluewater template, some lots use similarly designed housing, to give a look of completeness. Though these are all decorated and furnished differently.
This version would also be useful if you don't like the downtown or uni we've made, or if you want to create you own! However, if you wish to assemble the Uni and downtown buildings yourself, then they are available separately on the website.

BF 'Lite' Lots and Families
Balise University This folder incudes three university lots which contain students - 5 Vine Street, Flotsam Halls and Willow Dormitory. The other lots are all empty, please note that the folder doesn't include a secret society lot.
Lustre PointThis folder includes lots specially created for Lustre Point: the main folder contains empty lots, the second folder contains lots with playable families.
This is now one complete download, however the folders within are clearly marked, so that you can delete any you don't want to use. Remember, please do not install University lots to a non university neighbourhood, as this might cause an aging problem right across your town.

Download-Updated and grouped Lots and Apartments

On this page you will find new or updated houses and apartment lots, meant to be placed in either Beacon Falls or Lustre Point. All of the lots here have been grouped together as a larger download. When you unpack the Rar file, you will find each lot in its own folder, along with images so you can see what they contain, and decide whether you want to keep or discard them. If they require certain EP's, this will be noted in their file name or in the accompanying text description.
Only the Stanford Building, in the LustrePoint_Redone as Apartments folder has specific information, which you will be able to find in the included Read Me file. Lots have been weather proofed for Seasons.

The single lots for Beacon Falls and Lustre Point are on another page. Then lots specifically meant for Balloth will be on the Balloth add-ons page, and lots meant for Isle St.Croix or Prometedor will on each of their add-on pages. The lots here can of course be placed anywhere you choose, and in any neighborhood you might want to have them in. Locations have been given to use as guidance only!

LustrePoint_NEW_Houses

Beacon Falls Starter and Beacon Falls Bigger are the two houses seen at the top of the picture. They have been built in a similar style, with the starter being obviously smaller, is more basically furnished and has no external decor. I believe these require Seasons.

3 and 6 Belisha Point require the Mansions and Gardens SP, and are the two houses which can be seen at the bottom of the picture.
I made these for specific sims, and they are set in the left hand corner of Lustre Point, nearer the waters edge and towards the corner, opposite Lustre Park in my own game.
Pictures of the front and back of 6 Belisha Point can be seen in the middle and right hand side, this was based on a lot that I think I saw on Insiminator, I had been unable to install it properly. I remember I liked it enough to try to recreate it, but having checked there, I can't give credit to the original creator for the idea because their features page doesn't seem to go back far enough, and I can't find it in the list of downloadable lots. If you know who it made the first version, then please contact me and I will happily change this section to give full thanks, credit and a better link. (I think theirs was a beach lot)

LustrePoint_Redone Houses

These are edited lots which can already be found in Lustre Point, I have uploaded them for people to add to or replace some of the Lustre Point lots which had been used several times over in order to fill out the neighborhood.
Pictures of the interiors and backs have been included in the folder, so that you can see what you're actually getting. These have been built and furnished in a full EP/SP game, and so require the Mansion and Gardens SP. If you are missing any of the other packs I might have used while putting them together, they should still install correctly and show up in your game, but I would advise you to check and see if any decor needs replacing, or if there are any furniture items missing.

LustrePoint_Redone as Apartments

There is another non pictured lot included in the download, which looks similar to the house on the top right hand side. These were lots that had been made a long time before the Apartment Life EP was ever mentioned or released, but were built and styled as if they should be apartments. Someone suggested them being updated and made to function as actual apartments, so here they are!
These have been updated in a full EP/SP game, and they require the Mansion and Gardens SP.
