German Veronaville redux: Via Veronaville 26
When I create my OC household Tellier (formerly Taylor) 19 years ago, I picked Via Veronaville 26 to let them live in. 3 years ago, I recreated them in a clean version of Veronaville by @simstate.
Building a half-hipped roof shape generally looks wonky in The Sims 2 because it doesn't have a feature to make such kinds of roof shapes. And so far I know, it's not possible to mod new roof shapes.
For comparison, this is how the orignal Via Veronaville 26 looks like in a vanilla Sims 2 game.
Left picture: made by me during my hike in Oberbergischer Kreis (NRW, nearby Cologne) | right picture: from Wikipedia, taken somewhere in the BaWü state
I actually wanted to create a roof construction like this, but that didn't play well with the restricted roofing styles in The Sims 2 due to clipping and glitchy looks, so I moved the intersectional roof to the center.

I come down to the conclusion that Bergisches Land (especially the Oberbergischer Kreis, nearby Cologne) in Nordrhein-Westfalen is the best reference for my German Veronaville redux regarding types of old houses and the architectural planning 😃. The half-timbered houses in that area were often built as detached houses, sometimes with big yards, which remind me a lot of the vanilla Tudor lots of Veronaville.
Pictured: random houses when I googled for "Bergisches Haus"

German Veronaville redux: Summerdream Mansion (71 Bard Boulevard)
Summerdream mansion, inspired by a Hessian castle-like Herrenhaus
Rittergut Aue in Wanfried muncipality (Hessen)
For comparison, the vanilla Summerdream mansion in The Sims 2

My German Veronaville redux builds: Capp Mansion
I got my inspiration from a couple of Herrenhäuser in Hessen ⬇️
Keudensches Schloß in Wanfried, Hessen
Herrenhaus Berßel in Osterwieck-Berßel (Hessen)
For reference: the original English-Tudor style Capp mansion in The Sims 2
But during my recent trip in Germany, I realized I want to use this house as a reference as well for the Capp mansion, regarding roof layout
And a yard like this (picture source: Wikipedia)

am Arsch der Welt
literally: at the ass of the world
in the middle of nowhere

Currently doing research about the history of the German Berg houses I want to use as reference/inspiration for my Veronaville redux

28 Bard Boulevard reminds me of economical half-timbered houses from Siegerland
Translation: there was a law in 1790 regarding wood savings due to shortage of wood. Therefore from 1870 - 1920, cheaphalf-timbered residential houses were built in Siegerland and surroundings, characterized by omitted intermediate horizontal beams (so | | instead of H beams)

Bf and I: *visited a non-touristic cozy German village, ate at the local döner restaurant and even got allowed into "Duzen" territory when speaking German with a local villager* we are travelers, not tourists 🌍
