Garages - Bat - 21-02-2009 12:14 AM

I was building a new house on The Sims 2 today (I haven't played in a while) and I realized how hard it is to make a garage attached to a house with a foundation. I think that is awful! Even when you successfully get it to work, the walls are messed up.

I think EA needs to rethink how the garages will work. We know we are getting cars and different ways to park cars, but I haven't seen anything about garages.

And while we are on the subject of garages/driveways, I think we should be able to build driveways in any shape we want and the car still follows the path we build.

Yea, good idea that would be good! Wonder if they've thought about it and are just keeping it a secret.
I've never tried to do a garage on a foundation D:
Sucks that it doesn't work though.

I could never build a garage attached to the house.  It had to be either far apart or I would just give up.Most of the time I would put the driveway down and put the car there and thats it. I would like them to improve on how to make driveways it was to difficult for me.

I agree!

I'd love to have a side attached garage, but the codes you have to use are ridiculous!  I managed to get the codes to work, but the work to do it was insane, and there was NO WAY that I was going to be able to remember all that information!

I have a composition book that I have specifically for writing things like cheat codes, codes for building, etc. into.  I even have all my registration codes for my games written down, in case I lose the booklets somehow.

But seriously ... EA needs to rethink the ability to build walls that can attach to a foundation, and not make the game look stupid.

and what about having the driveway go in the other direction?
so you could have the driveway on the right side of the house but not needing a tiny house and enormous side yard

Seriously. I had to rearrange a CC home,and it didn't look so good,cause I had to make a garage.
I agree to build a pathway of how we want to,there's not ONE way as far as driveways go.
