I've finally started placing trees for my forest area. I've got a good amount down in my main Metropark area, but OMG, it's going to take me five years to place as many as I need.

Updates on my LH world progress. The main Lake City areas of the map are mostly all plotted out now. That's on the left side there, the city grid you see between the two bridges. That will represent Lake City, West Washington, Old West End, and LCU.
And having finished up the bulk of work on Lake City's streets, I've just now begun work on the Lakeside Heights/Bluewater half of the map. I'm still pretty unsure about what I'll do with Bluewater. I hadn't wanted to erase all those lovely farm fields, but I also don't want Bluewater there in that spot either. And I don't need the farm fields to take up quite so much space. I suppose I better practice my terrain painting then ;)
university in Sims 3
*warning: this is about to be the dorkiest thing you've ever seen, lol!*
I've been spending far, FAR too much time in CAW this week. I need to stop. Like, seriously - I even took the disk out of my drive as a deterrent, lol!
22 lots already here on campus (planned for: 7 campus buildings, 4 residence lots, 1 science facility, 6 small courtyards or parks, 2 parking lots, 1 campus shops, 1 subway station), and I've even forgot four more lots I need! :o By the time I'm finished with this, my world is going to be so HUGE I can't even play it!!!
Which has gotten me thinking a lot (and getting a million new ideas in my head) about University in Sims 3. (But we have no University for TS3, you say?) No matter though! I'm picking up some old tricks I used to use back in the early TS2 days, before we had TS2 Uni - I faked it! Back in the day, I would just make up lists of classes they had to complete to earn a degree. (This is all outside the game, by the way - it won't make any difference one way or another to actual gameplay.)

But the good news is, the first segment of my world is plotted and ready to build on! It still needs finishing touches like street lamps 'n such, but I'm going to do those all together at the end, I think. And the district you see here is the future site of LCU!

the master plan
This is for me, mostly, but I thought some of you might like to look at it too.
(Big image - click here. And please pardon my splicing together of two different pictures, lol!)
This is pretty much everything I was trying to describe in words in the previous post, but you know, visuals are easier, lol!
It's neat to see how they'll all be connected for real in the end... and OMG, this is going to take me months and months to ever finish! :o

I can haz CAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Please pardon my nerdy glee! :D
So this is clearly just mostly Riverview Lite at the moment, but I have begun making some edits to slowly transform this bad boy into Lakeside Heights. On the left side of the river will be Lake City, and on the right side will be a mish-mashed version of Lakeside Heights and Bluewater neighborhoods. The brown areas at the bottom shorelines are where I've extended the land so far. On the bottom left will be the Stoneview Court neighborhood, and the bottom right will be the Lakeside Heights Lakeshore area.
