plumbtales:Important!!!For the secret lots to funtion like secret lots, there’s some special requirements that need to be fullfilled. (Taken from this tutorial)Far East Secret Lot: Has to have a Tea Time TableTropical Secret Lot: Has to have a microwave, cheap dishwasher and Feel the Breeze HammockMountain: Has to be built on a medium sized lot, have a residential mailbox and the cheap stereo.Let’s begin!Step 1: In Game1. Create a community lot (residential lot for the Mountain lot) and place it in a throwaway vacation hood.2. Make the changes you want to make, don’t forget to save.3. Open cheat bar and type “changelotzoning secretvacationlot” without the “”. If you’re making a Mountain lot, before making it a secret lot first type “changelotzoning community” and buy a community phone.4. The save button should now be greyed out. Exit to the vacation hood (if you just exit to the desktop right away the lot zoning might revert back to community).5. I would place the lot in the lot catalogue and then place it down again, so that I have a copy.5. Exit the game and open SimPe.Step 2: SimPeI’m unsure if SimPe looks different to people depending on what version of SimPe they have, but this is how it looks for me.1. Open SimPe, select Tools -> Neighborhood2. Select Neighborhood Browser…3. In Neighborhood Browser select the Main hood that has the vacation hood attached to it it.4. In the Options box scroll through the list and select the vacation hood. Click Open.5. In the Resource Tree to the left you’ll find the Lot Description. Click on it. 6. Select your secret lot from the Resource List. This opens the Lot Description Editor.7. Make sure that the Hidden box is checked. This will make your lot invisible in hood view.8. Make sure the Lot Type is set to SecretHoliday. If you didn’t change the lot type while in game you can change it now in SimPe.9. Save.10. Go back into game. Have a sim visit the secret lot to make sure it spawns it’s unique NPC character. 10. If everything works, put the unplayed copy (from your lot catalogue) in your real vacation hood, follow the steps above to turn it into a secret lot and hide it in hood view. -- source link
