Ah!! Maybe that was it. I didn't have enough posts. I have another house to do with awnings (more pix from Cape May) so I'll see what happens. Now I have to go and do something productive instead of playing. :D

Thank you!!

It looks like you fixed the awning on the one building. I noticed that too when I went to put the awning back I had to delete some things first and then add them with moveobjects on. It's somewhat of a pain.

The grid.. That's what the "squares" are called. I couldn't think of what they were called this morning for the life of me.

You did an awesome job on your B&B build. :)

Sure is a pain.
You must be older than I though if you can't remember things. :D
Thank you. It's still a work in progress.

I have a couple more pictures of beautiful B&Bs from that same Cape May area. I drove past a huge gorgeous heritage house today that I had no idea was even here. That's going on my list as well. My poor sims are being terribly neglected.

Nice house Lapaige! Glad you got the awnings to work. How did we get awnings anyway or are they cc?

They are in buy mode > Curtains (can't think of actual category), from Ambitions. Errm... at least the ones I found. Go into Create a Style to find different color options or to recolor them.

You know I think I've seen those, but just never paid attention to them, LOL I found them exactly where you said they were. :)

Oh good!! Thank you for letting me know. I wasn't in-game at the time so I couldn't go look. I have noticed though they do get in the way of taking photos of stuff or Sims on the porch. They don't disappear like if were to put the wall down.

I discovered that yesterday when I was trying to add windows to my lower level.

I seem to have a problem with a wildly swinging camera. It will fly up or fly down and I can't seem to get a ground level shot.

The wildly swinging camera that won't allow ground level shots is an issue with the game itself it seems.

Though I find if your on certain lots and can aim just right you can get ground level shots, but it's few and far between.
