Work In Progress: Flags For Nilxis’ Islands, Rflong7/13’s Islands And Prof Plumbob’s Coconut Island

Lisen801 at Mod The Sims made a great default custom flag changer for Sims 3.

With this I’ve been making some custom flags for various Sims 3 maps, including all of the islands made by Nilxis, along with Ziwa Bonde. The white splodge on the right side is because these are pictures of the templates.

If you see two or more for the same map, that’s because I’m not sure which one I like best yet.

The unifier is the Nilxis’ world logo design to all.

Most of them work around a base blue colour similar to the neutral Nilxis flag (sort of a United Nilxis Nations idea).

Ziwa Bonde had a shield logo already with the publicity pictures for it, that was easy enough. One idea I toyed with was as well as there being the two tribes, there would also be a group of left over colonialists with their own non-Pan African colours (or rather Pan-Simharia based on the concept of the Sims world from the map by Hazzaplumbob), thus three flags.

Hylewood has the Hyle triangle added to the back of the Nilxis world logo. As it is a forever autumn island, the colours reflected this. Saaquatoq has a Scandinavian theme and so the Norse cross design.

Copacabana and Sinangein take theirs from the most obvious landmarks.

Pinewood Island is a combination of an obvious pine symbol plus a topographical rendition of the island on the horizon.

Sa Pineda means ‘the pines’, so it gets the pine tree.

Isla Kalooni has a crescent moon shape to go with the lunar name, again an obvious choice. With the Islamic connotations of Kalooni, I see the island as being somewhere north west of Morocco on Hazzaplumbob’s map.

These two are for islands made by Rflong7-13. The unifying logo I’ve chosen for her is a pink flamingo on a plumbob. She’s been around the Simming community since the start, and the pink flamingo and plumbob are often used by her for her avatars, so I’ve decided to use this as a central motif to any flags I create.

Again based on the promotional pictures Prof Plumbob made for his series of islands of the same name.
