Sims 4 Community Lots CC

A community lot works as a venue only when its lot type is set and it has the objects that type needs. A gym needs workout equipment and a library needs bookcases, for example. Builders set the type for you, and if you change it, the game lists what the new type requires.

Some venue types come from packs. Restaurants need Dine Out (GP), and retail shops need Get to Work (EP). Check the packs line before you download.

Place the lot from your Library in the Gallery onto an empty lot of the right size, after installing any CC the builder lists. Then fill the rest of town with residential lots, or see our lots page for more on installing.

Frequently asked questions

Why doesn't my community lot work as a gym or cafe?

The lot type may be wrong, or an object the venue needs is missing. Check the lot type in Manage Worlds; the game shows what each type requires.

Do community lots need packs?

Often. Some venue types come from packs, and builders use pack objects. Each listing names the packs a lot needs.

Can I turn a community lot into a home?

Yes. Change the lot type to residential in Manage Worlds, then add beds, a kitchen and a bathroom if the build lacks them.
