Oh, it's not too late to join? Cool. I just started, myself. First post, first mod, etc.
I don't know about anybody else, but I found it easier to adjust things' positions by changing the numbers on their position than using the mouse. Maybe it's because my screen is ginormous? The only issue I had with doing it "by the numbers" was that you can't group them and move them AFAIK.
I apparently really have no idea what the spaces in the house are normally used for; I put the bed in the little alcove to the left of the fireplace and the table tucked into the corner (to the right of the half-wall division). It's a tight squeeze, I've got a lot of carpeting, though I think I used the wrong ones--the red and gold ones said Bravil carpets, and the Burgundy are Bruma carpets, I think.
Let's see, my screen is darker than most, so I think the lighting is about right, but it's hard to judge. I could probably use an extra light for the hallway leading to my table. It made the carpets seem to blend in better that way, though
Oh, yeah, I'd already started setting the table. Hope that's not an issue.
I assume you'd like to see the place in the construction set, yes? I'm not sure how to do that. I changed the .ini in the construction set, but now I can't find it. I also didn't get a message that a screenshot was saved
