Townie Walk-Bys - HELP!

Posts: 627 Member
Hi everyone. I'm so glad to see there's a video section on the forum. I just started making my first TS4 vid and was really glad they still have the control-5-8 feature for moving the camera.
Here's my problem: The townie walk-by is driving me nuts. I was wondering if anyone here could help me solve this.
I'm making a video for my granddaughter's birthday based on a song I wrote when she was born. I downloaded the lot, made the set, but every time I start filming, somebody walks by and ruins the shot. I've screamed myself hoarse yelling "CUT!"
Thanks ahead of time for any help. If this is the wrong place to ask, I'd really appreciate a heads-up on where to go. Thanks!

Maybe I could start on a new neighborhood. @Rosemow you seem to be a wonderful resource for so much and I hate to bother you since you're already helping so many people. Do you have any ideas of how to solve this? @Corwim do you make movies? @Laebeth ? @Veriona? @WrathofCath Help! Please?
Edit: Been searching on Google in between checking out way-to0-many threads to keep up with. So loving the creativity here.

This is exactly what I needed. Brilliant. Too bad I didn't ask sooner! I'm not too worried about anything except my little one loving it and don't want her confused by a sad, strange man walking by.
Thanks so much again.

I managed to get a preview done. Obviously I have to redo and take out the noise or tone done the waterfall somewhat). My husband will record the music via Audacity. I'm out of practice on my accoustic but he just built a 7-string electric and it has a beautiful sound. I'll try to sing. If it sucks too much it will just be lyrics and music.

The beautiful lot is by Piekxi (Waterfall Lake House) and I think it's Maxis curated. I only changed it a little and built a cabin to fit the song.

I just messaged you asking about the odd loud sound when you zoomed in on the sims. Glad you were able to find a player's lot to shoot the video in.
I would have been absolutely no help at all... I only play enough, to test out whatever it is I've created. I keep saying I will set aside some time to play in earnest, but it hasn't happened yet. Most probably, never will.
Happy Birthday to your granddaughter! I'm sure she's going to LOVE her gift!
Oops! Edited to say How very talented you are, to write a song for your precious granddaughter! The video looks amazing so far! I'll bet she'll just Love seeing her simself.
I think it's great you playtest @WrathofCath. I have outplayed myself a bit hence why I began learning to build. The game seriously needs some work on the gameplay tbh, my sims sometimes randomly stand around doing nothing or the town is a ghost. I have downloaded homes before blown away by the gallery images to only find some things are blocked and I had to spend hours figuring out what the plum. I like gameplay better on S3 tbh, S4 has a lot more work ahead of them.
@Jazztizz It's a good start. Good to know that sound will be omitted, I first thought it was my speakers.
@WrathofCath hehe yeah that Elaine dance always makes me laugh. Yes I agree @Rosemow is so great and appreciated. Thanks so much for your birthday wishes.
@Laebeth nope not your speakers. Just a raging waterfall of DEATH! (ENG)
Gasp, I'm not @Laebeth... and to think you were my main squeeze :P
I loved the emperor's new groove, llama face.
We finished the video just now. I really like how it turned out for the short amount of time we had. I hope she will love it. I hope you like it too.

And the video turned out sooooo good! Love your cute poem and song and the video perfectly accompanies it, it's a wonderful and an absolutely marvellous birthday gift, so sweet!
And on a side note, The Emperor's New Groove is THE funniest Disney movie ever, absolutely love it!

@Rosemow you visited my showcase too so I will reply what I wrote there. @Rosemow thank you. = ) She loved it. I just heard. They are across the ocean so I have photos and I got the cutest one after her party. Sleepy little girl, asking to see "her" video from Grammy one more time before bed. That, for me, is the best "Grammy Award" ever. ^_^
@Wrathofcath it's official. My daughter said she really liked it and asked to see it before bed again. Very happy! I got the cutest photo. (They are in the UK). I really appreciate you taking the time to view it.
@Corwim thank you! = ) I have a lot to learn about videos and I'll have some time to learn next month. Thank you for your kind comment. My husband and I are working on orchestration. I wasn't able to get the vocals ready in time. I wrote it on my acoustic but really love the sound in on his guitar. He learned this really quick to be in time for the rush but he has such a great bass line in mind for the final song. When it's done I'll let everyone here know.
Thanks so much again everyone.
@Veriona thank you. = ) I'm sorry I missed this comment yesterday. I was exhausted and replying to several threads and my wall. I missed one of @Corwim 's comments too on my Gallery. If I ever do that again (or if I've done it in the past) please just quote and post again. I really appreciate the time you took to visit the video.
