Q: I wanted to ask you how you do to place objects where they might not normally ...? I already tried with OMSP but I can adjust the height can you give me your secret?
A: Here are some tips on how to place objects where you want:
1. turn on the cheat: moveobjects on
2. To snap objects to grid: holding down Alt while moving or rotating the object and OMSP.
3. I use shiftable shelves when needed: (for example: If I am going to place some objects on the wardrobe, and there are no slots on it, then I will use the shiftable shelf to place some objects then place the wardrobe to hide the shelf)
4. You can adjust the heights of the objects in painting section and some shelves. Press alt and press up / down arrow on your keyboard to move up and down. or move your mouse to adjust the heights.

Q: How would you recommend I install your lots to avoid duplicate cc? Should I just install the sims3pack through the launcher?
A: Hello dear, thank you so much for liking my houses. When you are installing my houses you can just install them through the launcher so you won’t get duplicate CC, but before you do that you will have to make a backup of your “My Documents/EA/the Sims3/DCcache” folder to somewhere safe ex. your desktop. After you install the house, run your game to see if it runs smoothly. if anything doesn't go as expected you can always paste back the folder to restore your game. If you only use package files in your game you will have to convert the sims3pack house file to packages. Here’s the tool: Sims3Pack Multi Installer If you need the library file, send me a message. Thanks a lot!
Q: When I installed your house the cc did not show up/was not included. Is there any way to fix this?

Q: Will your lots work without some EP's and store items?
A: Some objects I used in my houses require particular expansion pack. So I am not sure if you can still install them or not. You can still download the house you want. If you need some of the expansion packs installed, the game launcher will pop up a message to warn you before you install the house and any content you do not have installed will be replaced by in-game objects.
Q: What do you play on?
A: Windows 7 64-bit, Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4430 CPU @ 3.00 GHZ RAM: 16GB
Q: What do you use to edit your pictures?
A: Photoshop CS2 or CS3 and Topaz Vivacity Image Improvement Filters
Q: How to install Custom content lots for Sims 3?
A: First you will need to patch your game, but before installing the EP/Patch you should:
1. Remove all your mods and cc (especially mods).
2. Make a copy of all your user files (C:\Users\your username\Documents\Electronic Arts)
the whole folder in documents to an external hard drive.
3. Patch your game.
It's absolutely important that you have the latest patch installed, otherwise you will not be able to install custom contents or they won‘t behave as expected in game. Go to the Updates tab in the Game Launcher and patch your game from there.If you have downloaded a lot of Sims3Packs, place them into:
Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Downloads (PC & Mac)

Q: How to place downloaded houses onto lots in sims 3?
A: When you play your sims household, click on the options and go to, "Edit town." Make sure to save and then you'll be directed to the town you're playing in. Then you have all three icons from when you started, create a family, housing/community lots, and then and other one. Click on the icon with the house and find the house you downloaded.
Then you can place it on a lot that has a rectangle icon on it. It'll zoom you to it and you can rotate to how you like. Press the accept button when you're done and you'll go back to the town. Now, click on your household home and tell them to move out by phone or computer.

Q: How to place an empty lot in sims 3?
In Edit Town Mode, It'll show you a bunch of different grids that you can place that are sort of the foundation of a lot. Once you've placed the lot, go back to Edit Town and change the lot to the type you want and go into build/buy to place buildings and other items there.
Some tips:
I always make a backup of C:\Users\your username\Documents\Electronic Arts\ DCCache folder to my desktop before I install any CC. Everything installed in Launcher can be found in the files in the folder DCCache. There are three types of files in there:
*.ebc: All Store Items
*.dbc: All third party Items
missingdeps.idx: Some cache file that gets recreated when deleted
If things went wrong I can paste back the folder to restore my game.
I use Delphy's Custard to check downloaded sims3packs before I install them.
