    Hi everyone, I started a BitLife Controls My Sims challenge. I believe I dropped a link in here sooner. If you are accustomed to my usual writing, I have longer "journal" entries to accompany the other posts. Or if you want something different than my usual fare, I have commentary-style posts as well, plus SimBit extras over on my Simblr.

    If either of those things interest you, or if you're already reading, I have a new entry today - A Swift and Sudden Betrayal or if you're new... start here. Hop around, read it all, or any combination of the above if you like.

    For some reason, Wordpress is giving me grief today, so I can't like your story, but I did finally find time to read and enjoy it.
    I played a bit with a game similar to Bitlife on my KindleFire, but it's hard for me to read that tiny screen, so I never got around to actually making a simlit of it.

    @SimTresa I'm having problems with Wordpress in the last few days. I can't stay logged in, I can't comment, or like others posts either.

    Thank you. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

    What's odd is I can stay logged in and update on my own site. I just can't reply on other people's WordPress sites or like posts. Must be a glitch.

    @divanthesimmer

    Ahh okay, I thought you meant chinese characters can't be used on the forums. But if you mean the pinyin version can't be typed its because of what the english slang of it means. :wink:

    I thought so! :D

    @InfraGreen Thank you!! I agree that they have, I'm proud of how far I've come in 2 years. Sometimes I do cringe looking back at the beginning though. :joy:

    Hail, fellow simmers and writers.

    I was thinking for some time about how to better phrase it, but nothing comes to mind so I will be as subtle as a sledgehammer - this is a visit in search of shameless self-promotion.

    Recently I had a minor crisis (I will spare you the details) and due to this I have removed my work from the forums. I come here in hopes of attracting readers and interest to other sites that contain my story.

    klbozJd.jpg

    Follow the adventures of a vampire who has awoken in a new, unfamiliar world. The journey will not be an easy one and will present many difficult questions both for him and for you. The story contains mature topics, violence, strong language and other not suitable for children elements. Viewer discretion is advised.

    I strongly encourage zooming in. Pages are huge. Forgive me for that - terrible eyesight is terrible.

    "Midnight" can be read on DeviantART and Archive Of Our Own.

    Not sure what else to say, to be honest. I hope this post will not annoy anyone.

    Have a nice day, happy slimming and writing.

    I finally got the Yomins' new house ready, then was delayed because I thought I might have to start all over due to more game lag than usual. I think the issue has been fixed, so here are two new chapters of Hidden in Sight.

    I tried to mix genetics to create an alien/sim hybrid, and the disguise isn't popping up in CAS. Is this normal? Or is it a glitch?

    Hybrids don't have disguises. They only have the alien social interactions and alien skin. :)

    Sorry, I should clarify. A child of a Sim and an Alien, who is an Alien, but their disguise wasn't popping up despite them being an alien. It seems to have fixed itself once I played the household, but it was a bit weird for a second.

    I think sometimes you have to click "create disguise" I recall seeing that at one point. I ran into an alien hybrid in my game once and she accidentally managed to get an alien disguise but it's her as an actual alien. Mostly because I was messing around in full edit mode to create a family for her.
    That I think might be a bug.

    On a side note I think it's really cool that you can see toddler vampire forms when they're on the gallery. Even though you can't see them normally.
