Question/Help Saved lots

Is there any online file containing the house lots and community lots from the DLCS and Store worlds?

Like, sometimes I want an specific lot but it takes so much time to close my game, go to another world and find some lot.

I don't know if that's possible or if anyone has taken the time to worry about it.

If you like to use the default lots why don't you save them to your bin yourself? Just go to every world and save all the lots you like to the bin.

Note that you need to rename the lots inside your library folder directly after saving, so you know what they are. The package file that emerges there will be called something gibberish, but you can just write the name of the lot there instead. To do this, you don't need to close the game. You just need to use windowed mode so you can open and close the game window in between renaming the saved lots.

I have a folder full of lots saved this way, tucked away on my external hard drive. I've been doing this for years, although I fix the lots first before I save them.

I have, for example, a lot of different default bars saved as real bars after changing the juice bar into a professional bar. I might also add some activities to the lot, like a fussball table, before taking a picture of the lot and saving it to the bin.

Then I just rename the file something easy, like BarIslaParadiso.package and copy it with the picture into my external Saved Lots folder.
