Rolling Stones Art Center


Art makes life bearable....

Edit 13 June 2022: Just a couple of minor changes; I've replaced the ugly in-game activity table for children with a simpler one from SimVerses. It's not totally Stone Age, but looks much better. My sims complained that there were no place to dance to the drums and stuff, so I have added Bakie's Invisible dance floor and ATS' Musical Oak. I hope your sims will appreciate it too.

Art makes life bearable. It isn't a luxury. Like our capacity for understanding, and our experience of love, it is a vitally important part of life. (Gillian Pederson Krag)

Stone Age sims also need to express their creative sides, and this little clearing in the mountains landscape gives them that opportunity. There is also a "cave" with some pieces of art made by others, that your sim can admire. The cave has a partly hidden entrance. 

If you go for historical realism you have to note the following

  • There are a couple of items necessary for an Art Center lot that does not fit in; the children activity table (partly hidden in the mountainside), and the "piano". If seeing these items disturbs you, just can move them to the room underground to avoid re-categorizing the lot.
  • There will be semi-profesional painters visiting the lot. You can use MCCC to change their outfit to their private/normal outfits, but you will have to do it each time you enter the lot, or when they change staff.
  • The barman/barmaid will have the standard black uniform. Again, You can use MCCC to change their outfit to their normal clothes, but you will have to do it each time you enter the lot, or when they change staff.
  • Using the Street art object will make your sims have spray cans in their hand while painting, and the motives are surprisingly (?) modern.

OOOPS! If you updated your game with the March 23 patch, the barstools on this lot might not work properly. I didn't update my game yet, so I can't check. From what I understand there will be a routing problem (the sims can't sit down). If they don't work, and you don't want to change the chairs to EA ones, we will just have to wait for a fix. (This problem should now be fixed)
