Small or large houses?

(1/4) > >>

lisa-bee:
I was looking for a smallish family house on 1 level.
I realized the houses I liked were so huge.
I started to wonder how many people play these houses?
I get tired of scrolling side to side to follow my sims around, So I try to build houses that fit on a fairly close zoomed in screen with hardly any scrolling.

So my question is would you rather a large house for your favorite families or a smaller?
How many levels?
Would a larger monitor increase the size of the house I could play?

I prefer smaller houses, usually one level-but it depends on the size of the family ,too..lots of kids will usually increase the size for me. No more than 2, though..it gets tedious to follow up through the floors when there's things going on somewhere else.
BTW, did you know that if you double click on a sim picture, it will automatically follow it around as it moves? That saves having to scroll around after the sim.
The monitor size doesn't matter-the screen size does. In the settings you have a choice of several settings-and that will increase or decrease your screen.

I build my own houses using the largest lots available in the game and usually go for two levels in each house as well, I hate small houses in the game.

it really depends on my family. I often find myself sratring with a small house on a large lot. so little by little I can add some more room and/or another floor.

BeosBoxBoy:
generally - I like a compact floor plan that makes good use of space but has lots of open areas - like the kitchen dining room and entry all as one room.

An example of a lot that I think is great is by Hony at MTS2 here: Villa ''Hollywood''

I also really like his Slope Futuretro Villa
