CHAPTER ONE: THE GROUND WORK

1. Go to FILE, click NEW WORLD (IF you want to use a Distant Terrain, do it First. Read this Tiptorial)

2. A window opens NEW WORLD OPTIONS

•  Select either LUSH or DESERT
•  Max height - Choose either 100, 200 or 300
•  Select option for IMAGE FILE

I am using Lush, 300, LargeFlatMap 300

GETTING STARTED!

As much as you would like to just jump in and start building, you must lay down some ground work and the right tools first.

1. Download the Create-A-World tool first from The Sims 3 website here

2. Download the Tutorial file here and the Walkthrough file here

3. Although I am going to talk you through it, it doesn't hurt to have a manual for guidance
