Seasons Build-A-Rink Set (Updated 5/5/2020)

Update - 5/5/2020 - I've finally figured out the show issue with the meshes on the roller rinks so thet are back in the zip file. Sorry it took so long, been sick for weeks and no, I have no idea if it was Covid or the flu, CO lacks tests, so they just told me to stay home and self quarantine. Be safe out there people.

Update - 2/6/2020 - I don't know what happened I tested the rinks in January and they looked and worked fine, but decided to play today and poof the roller rinks were not showing up. I decided to remake them but there's a shadow issue on one and warping on the other and I cannot figure out what the issue is. I removed the roller rinks for now. When I figure out what's wrong I will re-upload them as a separate file. Sorry about the inconvenience.

Update - 2/2/2020 - I finally got around to updating the rinks. I have tested with community lots and with groups/clubs now NPC will skate on the rink with your sim. I also took out a set of lights that were suppose to be peace signs and I ended making them look like a car emblem instead. Maybe later I'll throw in Peace sign lights in a different download. If anyone finds an problem please contact me at [email protected]. I check on that far more often then I come here. Work keeps me busy and I don't have much time for modding and playing these days.

Today I bring you the Build-A-Rink Set. It was labor of love and I thought the ones that came with the Seasons pack was limited. I love to make the lots my own and for each rink and season to be original.

There's a total of four rinks, Ice and Roller, small and large. I gave them a personal touch by adding designs for season and holiday fun. The themes are Spring Flowers, Heart, Peace Sign, Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Snow Flakes, Fall leaves, and blank rinks. The roller rink has two blank rinks black and brown. The roller Rink has ten designs, while the Ice Rink has nine. They have all the same features as the originals. You can use alone and decorate as you like. All the Rinks are found in Buy-Entertainment-Active/Outdoors/Misc. SEASONS PACK REQUIRED
Large Ice/Roller Rinks - $5000
Small Ice/Roller Rinks - $2000

The columns are a conversion from Sims 3 and recolored to match the themes. It only comes in one size, Short. Comes in fifteen colors. The Seasons Columns are found in Buy-Deco-Sculpture and are $50 BASE GAME COMPATIBLE

I made deco panels and a deco panel ends for a fence effect, the themes are blank white and black, Halloween, Valentines Day, Sun, Peace Sign, Spring Grass and Daisies, Fall Leaves, Snow Man, Christmas Banner, Butterfly, and Easter Grass and Eggs. The Seasons Panel and The Seasons Panel Ends are found in Buy-Deco-Sculpture and are $50 each. BASE GAME COMPATIBLE

Lastly I made lights to decorate your gazebos and ceilings. They all come in Short, Med, and Long Sizes, and the themes are Hearts, Peace Signs, Flowers, Snow Flakes, Stars, Ornaments, Colored Eggs, and Spiders. I made most from Tinker cad except the Spiders. I extracted the .obj file from the Spooky pack and made it with a base game light. The Snow Flake, Peace Sign, and Spiders are a bit on the high poly count. I did what I could without making them look collapsed. All the ceiling lights are found in Buy-Lights-Ceiling Lights and are all $50 each BASE GAME COMPATIBLE

So here's the Build-A-Rink Set. It was a pain to get the rinks, graphics, and colors just right but I love the result and I hope you do too. Feel free to recolor and let me know of any issues or theme ideas you might like in the future.
