Are you a arcitect or what, cause I just downloaded this world and this is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. !! WOW!

The only thing is that I have to populate it by myself, but still... a wonderful job!

Sumo - if you download the save file she has listed - it will populate the town. Her sims are nice ones and have adorable back stories. But just download that from the file share site, open the file and it will reveal a folder to add to your save files - it brings the town right to life.

Downloaded a few hours ago. Love it, very lovely. However, I'm having issues... Or a issue, really. My "Athletic" skill won't increase at the gym, but will else where. What should I do?

I've experienced that glitch, MidnightProwl. In lots of different worlds, too, so I don't think it's unique to Crystalline Cove. What I usually do is I send the sim to the stadium to take a class in athletics. As soon as I do that, the sims seem to gain athletic skill normally.

Congrats again, Gem! You did a fabulous job on this world and the feature is well deserved.

WOW!

So this is what you were testing! It's absolutely stunning!!! This is incredible Gem. Well done, very well done. I just may break my no CC content rule to download this. Truly captivating.

Okay so I'm trying to do what you suggested, HappySimmer3, but I can't find the stadium. =\

Edit:

Found it... It's invisible...

Thank you everyone
Thank you guys for catching up with all the questions

MidnightProwl: What do you mean it's invisible? If the building is not there for you, it's because you probably don't have Dr.Pepper stadium. Just enter build/buy mode from edit town and place the base game one there.

Ceres, the world is CC free. Xept if you are of those people that considers everything downloadable as CC

Yia Sou! I downloaded your world yesterday. It is perfect. If I had the patience and time to create a world, it would be set up like this. Unfortunatly I'm having some weird issues. I played for 2 sim days. One of my sims went to work with no shoes on, and when I went to save and quit, my computer "encountered a problem with the Sims 3 and needs to close."(Didn't do that with any other neighborhoods, including Starlight Shores, Lunar Lakes, and Hidden Springs) I have Windows 7(64 bit), intel i3 @3.07ghz, 500 gig hard drive, ATI 6750 graphics card, and where i am supposed to have 8 gig RAM, I just noticed it is only showing 4(?) So, yes, I am planning on speaking with my computer tech tomorrow! I am hoping that I will get everything worked out so I can use your world. Efxaristo!
I have mods:Story Progression, overwatch, and velocity-no memories.
Very minimim CC, 2 hairstyles, 1 lipstick, and a few clothing items. (All checked)

@rainwide - I'm glad you are enjoying it

@Jeremina5 - Geia sou ki esena The no shoes issue has to do with how the game handles the career outfits. It's a glitch. taking your sim to a wordrobe and "plan outfit" for them on the career tab fixes the issue by reverting them back to their default career outfit for their job lvl. You don't need to assign a second outfit. Simply taking the sim to "plan outfit" , navigating to the career outfit tab, and clicking on the check mark to exit CAS does the job. It will give you a message that the sim has made a new outfit for themselves - even though they didn't - but the issue will be fixed.
As for the crashing issue, i've encountered this many times in SS with 8gigs of RAM and i've come to the conclusion that it has to do with Twallan's SP as it conflicts and messes up simfests, corrupting proprietors and simfests. The mod is not yet able to handle the new professions therefore causing issues. I was never able to have a normal simfest with out it resetting itself, and the few times that i did ( i think there were about 3 times) my game grashed giving me that error. There is a thread about it in Twallan's wiki under SP issues, and Twallan himself has posted that he hasn't yet looked into this. So consider for now taking the mod out. I had no further issues after doing that myself. I do miss the drama , and my towns are now plagued by vampires and celebrities, but i have no crashes and simfests work as they should.
Your computer is capable of running the world even with 4GB of ram. A few of my testers had that amount and even less. If it was a memory issue you would be getting error code 12s and memory errors when crashing.
However you soulod really look into the issue of your computer showing only 4GBs instead of 8GB. I had this issue with my computer when i got it, when it was showing less memory at times. It was like it was haunted. No idea what was causing it , but took it back where i got it from and they fixed it.It is a serious issue and you really need to look into it, as many things may be causing it, like faulty RAM chipsets or even that you payed for 8gb and they added 4 instead.

R.I.P. my puppy, my friend, I'll always remember. I miss you.

Thank you very much, Gem. =) Got the stadium in now. Funny thing is, tried what you suggested last night before I went to bed but didn't see the option in Build Mode to place the buildings. Lol.

Very beautiful world, by the way. Absolutely amazing and perfect. TS3 has been killing me lately because I want everything from the EP in one world but can't really get that with the worlds that come along with the EPs. Your lovely world is just what I needed. <3

No problem

I really know what you mean. I do like the EA worlds (store and EP) but it really bothers me that I can't fit everything in them. I redid HS and Lunar lakes before ST, in a save file, but there is no room left for me to add ST venues, and i had to cut down the amount of res lots. There is not even room to add empty lots from the in game editor, and even if there was, there is high chance that it will mess up with the routing badly, causing unbearable lag. That's why i turned to CAW and user made worlds in the first place.

The gym still isn't working. =( Used the Athletic class at the stadium like you suggested, but nothing. I've never had this problem before. I don't know what's wrong.

Well, I'm very thankful you made this world. =D I've always been iffy about downloading a player made world before now because I wasn't sure if using my memory for it would be worth it and worried about the lag, but I'm very glad I did decide to. Found your world through the tweet TS3 did. Lol.
