  • No, this one actually created a new directory in my Sims 4 directory. There was even a readme in the folder the mod installed to, that mentioned it. I just hadn't thought to look at it again when I was removing my mods folder. The readme also mentioned that there are other creators on Curseforge that do the same thing,…
  • Ah, I see what it was. It was the first (and only) mod I ever installed using CurseForge. It created a directory separate from the Mods directory called "mod_data". When I removed my mods folder, I didn't notice that folder, because I wasn't expecting to see it. Once I removed that folder, everything went to normal. Guess…
  • Considering that graph paper was originally made for architectural blueprints - and Will Wright originally created the first Sims game to be an architectural game - the conversion of the squares in the game and actual building proportions is hardly surprising. It would be surprising if it did NOT convert naturally. Just…
  • @TeeSea: Thank you for linking this thread for me! I really enjoy what you've been doing so far. Lexie and all of her children are beautiful; you can tell them apart from the other Sims in the world because of their pretty, anime-style eyes. :) It's too bad CC was glitching for you. I think I use CC clothing at least as…
  • @mcrudd: Oh, wow, you finished! I was on TSR, looking over new things, and saw your 100 baby jammies, and was happily surprised. So had to come over here and read the last 8 pages that I missed out on, and Awesome all your posts. :) Your Sim had so many pretty and handsome kids, it was amazing. Loved Stacey's makeover,…
  • I think my favorite update was the Spa Refresh, including fingernails. I love fingernails! I add them to almost all of my Sims, especially the females, but also some of the males. I also liked Sims Sessions, but didn't care about the clothing you can "earn" from it. I rarely use T-shirts in the game, and when I do, it's…
  • @simgirl1010: I looked over the bug thread: The bug is what I encountered in my first two play throughs, but is NOT what I encountered in my third. The third playthrough just showed how easy the scenario is, even without that glitch. My Sims never left the lot, so never encountered the bug. It's just that - if you are…
  • I randomized the personality traits, then picked aspirations that I felt matched. Neither of them got Evil or Mean, and the two didn't get opposing traits. Maybe I'll try that eventually. I've never tried with a full house, either. It might be interesting if they DO all get negative sentiments towards one another. The…
  • @ciane: I've been reading your story of @SamelaRita's renovacy, and really enjoying it. It's fun watching how you get them from enemies to friends. Me, I always take a shortcut; chess. Every iteration of Sims it works to develop friendships, even when Sims start off as enemies; or when, even if they don't start off…
  • @puzzlezaddict: That's absolutely hilarious! The game is supposed to replace items with things within the same category. That means it thinks that the chimney parts are bookshelves! :lol: At least it got the roof tower right; it knew it was a roof decoration. I wonder which items got replaced by those globe sculptures? I…
  • @Kesminlix: I loved seeing your pictures in the game. I really love all of the animals, even though I know the cows and chickens are technically just objects. It's still so cool having them and seeing them in the game, and the kitty is so cute! Love how she's thinking about the cows, like maybe she's worried that one of…
  • @GraceyManor: Addy told me you were having problems with the first version of the lot, because of the tomb. I am so sorry! It never occurred to me that it might cause you problems, even though I know tombs have problems on some computers. I've personally never had them, so I just didn't think of it. It's just that when you…
  • @puzzlezaddict Oh, it sounds like you made a small tomb or hidden room in there! I love those! Yeah, I'm going to have to explore that little cottage with Serena as soon as I'm feeling better. She looks wonderful, and the home looks delightful! You do a much better job with landscaping than I do; I struggle with it. I can…
  • @Hidehi: What a marvelous house! That would fit in so well in almost any world. Great details! Heironymous looks awesome. I've never watched that series myself, but you've given him some pretty unique looks, so he'll stand out in any crowd. He definitely looks like a hard-boiled detective! (Have you ever played the private…
  • @puzzlezaddict: That's your first time making a Victorian? Wow, you did a great job! You even used one of the rugs from Grandpa's Grove - I love those! (I was sad not to be able to use them in my own build - they're the perfect size/shape for under a four-person table - because GM unfortunately doesn't own that store set;…
  • To My Buddy, @GraceyManor: I have one more gift for you, a rather large one. But first, I want to explain something about the graveyard in the build I made for you. Addy said that you play with large families, and don't mind large lots, up to 60x60. I took you at your word, and built on a 60x60 lot. I'm glad I did; it gave…
  • @Kesminlix: What a great home! (I see that lawn flamingo, hidden amongst those flowers!) This is a nice home for a small family, and Dragon Valley is my personal favorite EA world. Even though I'm not the recipient of this one, it's one I'm definitely going to use myself. :)
  • @puzzlezaddict: I am really, really excited to be able to play that house you built for me! It's wonderful! I keep looking at the pictures you posted, and thinking how perfect it is! @GraceyManor: I'm really glad you like it! I was actually worried that you wouldn't, because it's a Victorian. Yeah, there are many kinds of…
  • @GraceyManor: Another thing to do is use ciane's method of installing Store items. If your .ebc files get too large, the game will ignore some of the items in them. Look at her sig; there's a link to a forum post where she explains her method very well. You might have to use the method just to install that one venue; you…
  • @puzzlezaddict: Your gift has been checked and is CC free. :innocent: Actually, I had no idea you were my buddy. Goes to show how well my critical thinking is working. :D. I had wondered who your buddy was going to be, but never thought it was me! I *love* that house! You caught the festive spirit so perfectly! And lots of…
  • Finally, was able to upload (the Exchange was being a pain for me), but now.... This is for my buddy.... @GraceyManor! Gracey Manor Antebellum I was really pleased when I was given your name to build for. I was very intrigued by your buddy letter, and the fact that you work as a Ghost Hunter in real life. The fact that you…
  • @ADWilson: Wow, what an amazing build! Seriously, you thought of everything! Why the heck didn't I ever think of making a playhouse for kids on a lot? I had one as a child, so I *should* have thought of it! This is really an awesome house. I would LOVE to live in it myself! CeCe is very cute, and I love that you made a…
  • @seaben: How cute! The round roofs, the nice colors, and the lush landscaping all speak to the fact that this is indeed a home for fairies. :)
  • As the others have said, it depends on how you like to play. I always seem to start off with either one or two Sims; I like to abuse the clubs system, so it helps to have two Sims in your household, just so you aren't forced to have an uncontrollable townie in your club. It doesn't matter the ages of the two Sims, as long…
  • Finally caught up again. I'm sorry I've been away; I was still having trouble with images on the site (which seems to be fixed now), which meant I couldn't really enjoy your posts fully. I went back about seven or eight pages just so I could see all the stories again, this time with the images. There are other things going…
  • I'm going to go ahead and check in as well. My main gift is finished and tested; I'm working on a secondary, smaller gift, and just have to finish up some details. Taking a break, though, because my brain isn't working right atm. Addy knows just where I'm at right now; I check in regularly with her privately.
  • Oh dear, I've used savvy seller rugs before, just because they were the right size for a room. The Sims will "browse" the rugs, really? :cold_sweat: Um... good to know, but a bit disconcerting. I wish there were a better selection of rug sizes in the game!
  • If I'm just building one or two things (several small items, or one large item and one or two smaller ones), I generally use Volvenom's Rendalen. That world is tiny, and doesn't have any lots at all; depending upon what you're doing, you MAY need velocitygrass' "Create any lot size" mod in order to pop down an appropriate…
  • No CC is allowed in the builds. The Nraas mods won't affect the builds; the builds will still be CC free. There simply isn't any way that a Nraas mod will cause something to "stick" in a build. But there are various things in it that can improve ease of use when it comes to building. Like turning off tourists. Or adding…
