I've tried to build IN an apartment but the choices are limited !

My sim has is own house. Is there a trick to change it into an apartment and have roomates to come and live there ?


you have to rezone the lot just like a dorm. Also just like a dorm once the lot is rezoned and you exit back to the neighborhood, if you go back in you can't change most of the build mode options. The only ones availble are, wallcoverings, floors and the like. Also you prob don't want to rezone the lot while there are sims on it. They might dissappear.

Before you move sims in while your in build mode
 
Ctrl-Shift-C

Also for pricing options

When you build your apartment dont use the walk over wall seperator things people use to seperate the carpet and tile. It seems to mess up the apartment and counts it as a common area. Then you cant move ANYTHING! grrrrr .... I found that out the hard way lol!

Well I just spent a good 3 hrs building a nice place, 7 apartments etc, fully furnished - all 7...
Then zoned it, everything seems cool,
but as soon as anyone moves in all my hard work furnishing disappears, the basic stuff stays, like the fridge and stove, but the rest, like beds & TVs etc *poof*.

They reappear once i evict person A from the lot.
But it sucks. According to the PDF "tutorial" on the sims2.com you should be able to furnish the place COMPLETELY and have sims move into a FULLY FURNISHED place. Just seems a total rip-off.

Also, I play with testing cheats enabled, always have. The ONE door provided for apartment entrances causes a jump error with TT enabled, so for the first time I can't even play the way im used to or enjoy.

AL is going down as a stinker in my books so far.

Someone said if you right-click on the door with boolprop on you can retain the furnishings.  I guess it has an option.

ancienthighway:
Actually it's Shift-Click.
