    @king_of_simcity7 Prissy seems like a pleasant gal.I can imagine the countless hours we would spend admiring her extensive wardrobe and collection of 467 nail polish colors.Then the 4 hours it takes for her to get ready just to take a 2 minute trip go grab a loaf of bread from the store.Plus she looks like the type of girl who walks into signposts and glass doors cause she is checking her phone like a zombie to seewho liked her latest selfie on facebook.Her name is Prissy :| and she is the sim version of my ex with shorter hair. :D

    @CravenLestat A very true description but Prissy would never walk to the shop to buy a loaf of bread. Her house mate named Meek Valentine, a nerd who is deeply in love with her would run around and do all of her favours. She has him wrapped around her little finger! >:)

    She is a nice girl though, when you are in the same room as her. Just wait until you leave the room and she would comment on your clothes, your career choice or your taste in TV shows and if you are a girl who likes the same guy as her then you had best watch out for some pretty heavy competition.

    One thing to learn about Prissy is this, she always gets her own way and she always wins. She was good fun to have at University though ;)

    @meeoun Skye is just too adorable! Nao and Loki look so happy together. I love happy days like that :)
    @Sorak4 I love your updates about Buzz (my brain keeps adding Lightyear to that name lol). He really is an entertaining character :)
    @imdragonit Cool unique idea for a house!
    @ccarrig_95 Marla is really pretty. I love the name Kiersy :)
    @king_of_simcity7 Prissy looks like the definition of "Queen Bee". That hairstyle and dress suit her so well.

    Before it gets too late here I'm going to play for a bit :blush:

    @coco Many people have mistaken her for Ashley Corono using the UL hair but Prissy is more of a Queen than Ashley could ever try to be! :tongue:

    Hope you enjoy playing your game though, I am about a third of the way through the film at the moment so I will be popping in and out all day and sharing a few pictures while I can :smile:

    @king_of_simcity7 , @meeoun , @TadOlson ... Thank you! :)

    @cwaddell Thinking about the Jones mansion, I was actually motivated enough to go in game today. First time in over a month. I put the grand staircase in there ... took a look at the rest of the home ... and then quit the game! :s That place is odd. But I think I'll go back in and try to make a few renovations. I've never played in that house before.

    Here's what the Now and Then Manor staircase looks like in the Jones home. It still takes up a lot of room, but the rest of the house is huge, so that doesn't matter as much as it did in the original Manor house. And the Jones place already had a large entryway staircase to begin with.

    The first thing I did, though, was make a few changes to the front porch and door. The original had two different doors and the stairs leading up to them were separate. Unique, but bizarre.

    Oh it looks good there. There's enough room on the sides. If you do some more work on the Jones mansion be sure to post pictures. That place is a nightmare of a maze in its original layout. I'd love to see how you make it more livable.

    I also saw another good use of those stairs by a simmer who used it in an entry hall similar to the Landgrabb mansion in Sunset Valley. They divided it in half and placed it on each side of the entry hall.

    Today, my sims opened their first bakery. Although a prospect customer stopped by, he definitely didn't buy anything. Bummer, I hope they are able to maintain this bakery before the pastries go to waste!

    Another thing, I think I'm liking more my plumbot Betty more than my sims themselves. She's so funny, and very naive.
    She went to the wishing well and wished for wealth and power. Turns out, the fairies HATED her at first, but felt sorry for her after Betty kept falling into the well as she attempted to steal the coins. :D:D:D

    @lanlyn @cwaddell I'm going to hop in your discussion about Jones mansion. I was thinking of turning it into a castle. ^^
    I've done a design project there once and I didn't like the pit they've got hidden.

    @lanlyn Speaking of Skyrim, I can't like that game the same way I did with Morrowind and Oblivion. I did the Main and the Imperial Legion Quests and I feel through it. I didn't even buy the expansions. I can't understand why I feel like that. Maybe it's because the game drew too much attention and I have an Aquarius side that enjoys being different from the others. XD The orcs there are amazing, though.

    @king_of_simcity7 Your sims are great with those UL hairs. XD

    @thuggishsplicer Thanks for the feedback! :smiley:

    The thing that I find wit the Ashley Corono haircut is that it was very popular a few years ago with some girls. I used to see it a lot around town, usually the type of girls who unless you are built like a Marine, have loads of tattoos and a very deep voice, you are not going to have any chance at talking to them so you can forget about sitting at their table.

    It is amazing how different Sims look with certain hair cuts which is the same IRL. Some hair cuts really do go well with some Sims! :smiley:

    I am super excited about this Now and Then Century Manor and I can't get simpoints fast enough! Haha I also can't wait until the Hanson family has enough money to be able to afford into the Grandpa's Grove house I have.

    @ccarrig_95
    The next time the Now & Then Century Manor goes on sale in the store would be Sept 6, but its the most expensive price at 1045 points.

    After that, you'd have to wait until October 31st, when it goes on sale for its best price of 494 points.

    Its up to you if you're willing to wait. :)

    Well a few more pictures before I head out for a couple of hours.

    I have a few pics from a flashback with teenage Janie as well as one with teenage Jennifer:

    I just wanted to say thanks again to everybody who has left me lovely comments, likes and awesomes :) Cheers guys!

    @king_of_simcity7...and what happens next, hmmmmm :p


    Operation Matchmaker has suffered a setback. While I was playing a different family, Marigold got engaged to Chaz Custard. (He was married to Caroline Custard originally but she died of old age). Chaz is really old now too; his age bar is full up. I hope he doesn't suddenly expire on Marigold!

    I shall have to see if Lucy wants to pair up with Buster. Darn Sims and their high free will :p


    Moira is a child now! She aged up just after moving into The Creamington, so she didn't have a party, as her parents were a little disorganised. Here she is, enjoying her birthday cake.

    Screenshot-111_zpsdx4fahsd.jpg

    She has got green eyes :) I'll try and get a better pic of her to show them off.


    A few days later, Morty became a teenager!

    Screenshot-118_zpsduckkwcy.jpg

    He looks oddly creepy here. I think the slicked back hair adds to his sinister look.


    Sadly, Mars passed away of old age :( I think she was about 88, so she had a good, long life. She shook hands with Grim and went willingly with him but Cyrus, Saturn and Jupiter didn't take it well. Although Jupiter chatted to Grim afterwards for a while.

    A couple of nights later, Cyrus heard a strange noise outside. He dressed quickly and went downstairs to investigate. It turns out that Mars was missing her husband and friends and had come back for a visit.

    Screenshot-120_zpsrhs9uf7o.jpg

    Cyrus was afraid at first but when he realized that it was Mars, romance soon followed.


    Cyrus was happy to have Mars jump in his arms.

    Screenshot-121_zpslxonzpol.jpg

    After a bit of cuddling, they soon went back into their familiar old married couple routine. Cyrus went indoors to play chess and Mars turned on the TV to work out. She scared Violetta, who had come downstairs for breakfast. At about 07:30, Mars returned to her grave, hopefully to pay another visit again soon.

    @cwaddell I've seen a few neat designs using the two staircase side pieces too. Some are just beautiful!

    @thuggishsplicer The Jones home would make a great castle. Fun project. ...RE: Skyrim. I haven't gotten into the game the way I was with Morrowind and Oblivion either. I thought it was because my sister, who was my usual gaming partner, passed away about the time we were going to start playing, but now I think it's more than that. I have the expansions, but I haven't even finished the main quest.

    @cwaddell @thuggishsplicer I spent a little more time last night redoing parts of the Jones mansion 1st floor. Mainly got rid of the basement walkway. I have no idea what that was supposed to be. I didn't see anything down there. If there was anything there, it's gone now!

    Here's a screenshot of the front group of stairs that led down to that "pit." There were more stairs in the back of the house too. All wasted space.

    Hj3p66QyPg-4kTZ0g99OdzCL5N9RPXo0RcpERC6XiYAvR6vlWwvf60tXEnvzaARi5eYGnzy_9HMLd7yk04PFW-BOccRxvW_oDfn-JwUlyi1NjIGMsqxVJ6yf4ULaKMPhNXTItBr4RjjBPdmm62UiO9rLh0U84gV8_AXzMuoF-gwDZAK5Rki9zSbwe541Jk6ix8PYCOk0yQDNQxyH1-itjvltlHdrb8UYbOkcSgQqqqS5zmMJCfRPVGH6oSEMz433EW3bSI-HrEhiJoEzbR4yYm17OH06CzGLXmWxP02B5tyNMoCa6GcgtGUeGpF2MFUJWpD5TAAsHSNb5vU8oUzqM2-9-PvWEMPC4KELjIK9XlA_qSphtIlKTyS1hWYeYgWhDiXJRpDl9AfR7zbWenxEOyRxYE3U9H5j0sQitYYmU2nCyreNiu70Bg2RDVtwdK7uLCJbxlIOZzmN-SdxyyyKjel2Jok5iQ3ulEh8X3AL1xUXm6dJpyAF2OiRI3VKsbcI8neE5o2XASxDB2DZFwZ0O-up3dW1PorPFOzTVA0F7fshO9VgVlhHKXYpHCz3UnqPWeeTq7UsE0dQ_XKcCBYKuXXoFpMbNFoE=w1600-h896-no

    And here's what I did after I floored it all in--just basic functional things. The first area became a new dining room, and the second area became a small TV room. I also put black and white tiles in the foyer (typical for those types of homes), rearranged the living room, converted the arched walkway on the right to a small waiting room, put rocking chairs in the room where the dining table used to be, removed the third fireplace which was on the porch and replaced it with a washer/dryer in that odd chimney room.

    After doing that much to the Jones home, I checked in with my active household, ready to tuck them into bed and quit the game. Instead, things livened up a bit. Ruby got abducted. Thank heavens it wasn't one of the guys again! :o

    It feels strange in the household without good ole Roy. He's in the Wild West now with Holly and Riley. I need to figure out what the Criminally Challenged family will tackle next. Can't leave them in domestic bliss too long! >:)

    @wickedjr89 I love your pictures! Regina's face in that last picture looks like my face when I see my ex in public.
    @TadOlson WOW I love Eli's painting! So beautiful... These sims 3 blizzards are something huh? -_-'
    @MadIris Lydia was like.."to the left, to the left..all your stuff is up to the left.."(Beyonce song "Irreplaceable"..xD) She has moved on from Rob. Too bad, so sad for Rob. I mean, Lydia was a nice sim giving him the time of day to even offer making a dinner. I would of detonated his car and made him take a cab home--called it a day.
    @imdragonit Allisindra Cogg's steampunk-steamship-house is super cool! Awesome build!
    @thuggishsplicer Hey there. Yeah, I do have Nraas mods. SP and MC. I think next time I'll take some unpaid time off. I totally forgot we could do that xD. Wow, TRIPLETS. I couldn't imagine.... salute to you! xDD
    @ccarrig_95 Kiersy is a cutie! Wow hard working momma and papa! Best of luck with them juggling their careers and home life!
    @lanlyn That staircase is AMAZING! <3 I love your home!
    @Rukola_Schaaf I'm gonna look into that mod. Thank you! Either do that or just do the unpaid leave option. I totally forgot we could do that.
    @king_of_simcity7 Prissy looks so pretty! I bet all the guys are trying to get with her. ^_^
    @coco Thank you! I have TS1 music in my custom music folder and absolutely love playing while listening to it. It makes the happy days serene! I adore your sim in your avi and signature. Supermodel sims. Does your sims compete in the modeling section too?
    @FreakZhio Congrats opening up your first bakery! Best of luck with your business. I'm sure things will get better!
    @KevinL5275 Thank you for the heads up when the manor goes on sale! xD I'm trying to save up to by the baby changing station. I'd love to know when that goes on its cheapest sale. xDD Appreciate the spreadsheet doc. You're a genius!
    @plushtrap_107 Wow, time flies in the sims. I remember when Morty was a tod. He really did grow up looking a bit menacing. I like the change you did with his hair. Great update!

    So, if you missed last time:
    So today in my game, Nao and Loki are loving up on their new baby Skye.
    rva5p0.jpg
    Loki is especially happy. He gained like 15,000 aspiration points with the birth of Skye (He had 3 locked wishes for a child). rofl.
    npghet.jpg
    The baby has been a bit taxing on their needs though. Nao still makes every effort to play with her beloved Strawberry.
    2wfs7qx.jpg
    Loki is really dying for the lack of sleep. He works and comes home to care for baby Skye. (I wish the hubbies had maternity leave too.)
    xe4ujd.jpg
    --- to give Nao a break and a chance to get out of the house.
    16bx11d.jpg
    Baby Skye had her birthday! I had Loki right away teaching her skills.
    2wexbic.jpg
    Isn't she a cutie? xDD
    2zhgpaf.jpg
    I love how Loki autonomously snuggles and plays with her. It's so adorable. ^_^
    2rzwi8j.jpg
    Big happy family eating together...and Loki rolls a wish to have another kid! XDD
    339tuvc.jpg
    Nao wants to get back to working though. Her LTW is to become a News Star Anchor and she's only level 4 in the journalism career ladder. : / She puts having another baby on hold for now.
    2q0kpyv.jpg
    Loki in the meantime is just loving up on his little girl. He spoils her... ^_^ He bought Skye her very own bumblebee play set. ^_^
    20ib2q9.jpg
    All is well though from the Nao and Loki household. What a happy day in my game. : )

    So, today in my game summer has finally arrived! (I love the deer. There are sooo many in this world.)
    zob4wj.jpg
    Little Skye is now a child. She had a great birthday too. Her papa Loki keeps gifting more things. She's becoming spoiled rotten. (Did you guys know that if you gift a child 3 times in a row, with different things, they get the moodlet "SPOILED" and have a tantrum if they are not gifted with something new before the moodlet expires(?)..xD I died laughing when I witnessed this today xD)
    34r6phf.jpg
    Nao has been on a roll with her career. Until this morning.. when she woke up sick...-_-'
    w1qs1j.jpg
    Today was Skye's first day of school. Loki was so excited for her. He cancelled two meetings just so he could pick her up. ^_^
    ddjfop.jpg
    When they got home. I had Loki change to help Nao in the garden. Nao told Loki the news that she was pregnant. Loki was so happy!
    mj4t8z.jpg
    Nao and Loki headed over to the hospital to get check out. The couple found out they're having another girl. ^_^
    2gsq4qq.jpg
    Grandma Kiko came by to help the expecting family out. Here she is helping Skye with her homework.
    2enq3w3.jpg
    Loki is super excited to have another child. He frequently autonomously tries to listen to Nao's tummy. So cute >_<
    2wlx9ba.jpg
    The couple decided that Skye and the new baby will share a room. Skye isn't happy about it. (Loki is using the other room as an office and they're both girls..soo..xD)
    10zq004.jpg
    Nao meanwhile is doing well with her pregnancy. She's having a much better experience than with her first pregnancy. (She's also not as big to me too) Here she is making her famous "firecracker shrimp" lol..xD
    2d1wzzd.jpg
    After finishing her dinner, she goes into labor. Loki immediately rushes her to the hospital.
    2w2q9ua.jpg
    Grandma Kiko arrives to watch Skye. Skye becomes jealous. She knows when mom and dad return home, she'll no longer be the only child.
    2qtlu1w.jpg
    Meet baby Autumn. The new addition to the Loki and Nao household.
    wqu90i.jpg
    2yzigrn.jpg
    ..and Skye is not pleased whats so ever.
    2iu74g4.jpg
    What a stressful day in my game today..xD : )

    Well, no such luck on my part. I don't know if its the world, Angel City, or if its my computer, or because I moved 7 sims and a dog from a previous world, but I'm having constant lag, hangs, freezes, and crashes when I try to play. It gets so bad that sometimes one or two sim-hours go by before the sim actually does the action. :(

    I played in Angel City before, with a new game and using an existing household, and I didn't have these problems. It was also when I had half as many EPs so it may just be too much of a load on the game.

    So I'm going back to my Starlight Shores save and try to move them to a different town. I'm going to try Coasterboi's Los Aniegos and see if I have better luck.

    Thank you all for the encouragement. :)

    I opened my previous save, and I stayed in Starlight Shores this time until everyone aged up. Then I resaved and will look into a new world to move them to.

    After some more searching, it seems Los Aniegos is the large version, and Angel City is the small version of the same world by Coasterboi. So if I'm having trouble with Angel City, then Los Aniegos probably won't be any better. My computer is an i3 with 3.4Ghz processor and 6 GB of RAM, and an AMD 7700 graphics card, so it should be ok. My dad bought a used computer with an i7 and is going to trade me processors because he doesn't need that much. Hopefully that helps. :D

    @lanlyn Great update again! :smiley: I had to laugh at the ghost 'hanging around after day light' and also by the water. I think Sims develop slightly different interests or personalities after they die ;)

    @meeoun Good pictures again. Nice to see a new baby in the family :smile:

    Yes Prissy is not bad looking but she is not 'my type' as such. Her personality is quite bitter as well so a lot of guys steer clear from her but now and then a new man will full under her spell and you would have to take pity on him ;)

    She also has the stonehearted lifetime reward so she never actually gets hurt herself :tongue:

    @CravenLestat Looking forward to the new video :smile:

    @imdragonit Thanks for the comments :smile: This is one of the few large and long established threads that I actually really enjoy because compared to a lot of the forums, especially TS4 related pages, there is no arguing, no dramas and no reason to doubt ourselves as Simmers.

    Instead it is a group of people who enjoy the best of the series showing off pictures and videos and quite often I find out that I learn something new that I haven't seen in the game as well :smile:
