It's been a while since I downloaded from mod the sims, before I had installed every expansion, so I should probably go back and look at beatdoc's stuff!
-counts- I have ten people in the house right now, six bedrooms plus a nursery...and five or six bathrooms. and it's not that it's too small in general but for some reason this lot has decided that it wants to IMPLODEEEE. once I let everything load it isn't even that laggy now that I look at it, but the whole invisible dog thing is kind of bothering me, and last time I tried to save it, it tried to save for like four hours and I had to forcefully close the poor baby. /ramble.
as far as the dorm suggestion, it's one I'd never think of but it is also AWESOME. that being said, I'm not entirely sure how well it'd run but now I kind of want to try it bwahah.
LOL! Whoa that's a lot of space. If it helps I would if I were you get simlogical's stackable/intersectable beds and then put them three up for kids etc - saves on a LOT of space.
If it helps I was playing the Pterocles with nine people in the house + five dogs and the place had four bedrooms and three bathrooms. No problem, anyone that didn't make it to the loo wasn't because there wasn't enough room.
And I get that, I think the Faunas I had to change houses four times because of unexplained lot implosion >_<;;
nope, I've been using the batbox to clear gossip and everything like that but no such luck, I also seem to have a lot of corrupt graves for some unexplainable reason, Batali has even disappeared off of the family tree.
but last time I played before my game decided not to save, I sent the dog off to the pound then readopted her and she wasn't invisible anymore, but then I went back to the lot and she was invisible again. ugh.
I know how you feel, my current legacy family has 13 sims and 5 pets. Their house is basically a giant rectangle partitioned into little square rooms. Not very pretty, but at least it's playable.
Quinctia has a few fairly large houses made for legacies, maybe one of hers will be big enough? Here's the link, sorry I don't know how to make a hyperlink: http://rikkulidea.livejournal.com/2997.html#cutid5
Thanks for the link! it's okay, I don't know how to make a pretty link without looking it up every.single.time. I should probably try to learn without copy/pasting.
I ended up downloading a couple of simtopi's lots, specifically, one that was designed as a duplex/apartment building and at the moment I'm renovating a bit to make it into one large house. I really suck at designing houses, I tend to make box rooms inside a bigger box, not very pleasing to look at.

I'd also perhaps if you're looking for a TONNE of living space, downloading a dorm or apartment and converting it to residential? ^_^

Using the batbox hasn't helped at all?
