@emorrill Fun to see your Sims 2 character. Her eyes are lovely. Darling cat too.
@Vincent_Vengeance Your screenshots of Crowley were awesome! Loved the close-ups, especially the one with the turtle!
@bekkasan I'm worried about trying to connect my worlds! I'm not sure I should do it, so I'm delaying the process. I don't want to mess up my current saves. ...Great sunset screenshot. ...I thought both rooms for the guys were awesome and fit their personalities! I like how you've customized each SS's room.
@MKSizzle It was fun seeing the generational family portraits. I thought the poses worked very well.
@Nikkei_Simmer Cool ghost pics. ...Cute screenshots of Brianna with her new daughter. Katrina is a darling toddler. ...Awesome Martial Arts screenshots. ...Happy Birthday, Katrina! ...Pretty world scenery.
@king_of_simcity7 The Squire seems to like Cassie. I hope she doesn't break his heart.
@Charlottesmom I always have fun reading over your updates. All the interwoven relationships! And you're so good at catching funny expressions. ...I like Near. He really has his own look!
@meerkattime Yikes! Good luck reinstalling store content! What a job.

I didn't do much in my game last night or so far today, but here are 3 more random screenshots taken the other day when I was in Roaring Heights doing the new Festival lot.
Looking fabulous, Grumpo! You've made quite a splash at the festival today!
Grumpo puts on a little rouge and lipstick, then asks Elliot to skate with him. Gotta hand it to the guy, he IS trying to improve his Grumpy image!
I saw Shirley Templeton and May West playing catch in the park next door. Shirley should have been home in bed!
@lanlyn Not my first choice of go to cosmetics when going on a waterslide but he gets an "A" for effort.Am sure that the lovely couple got a few looks on the skating rink
@meerkattime Oh now come on,reinstalling store content is not that bad.Quit being a baby.
The family enjoyed pancakes for breakfast on Moss's last morning as a child
Moss's waking wish was to ride on the spring rider
Shannon rolled a wish to prepare pancakes after breakfast.
Finnian's waking wish was to paint
Mikezumi rolled a wish to play a game with Moss Although Moss asked Mikezumi for a game of catch at the back of the lot, they made their way to the area I flattened for the fixer-upper car to play! I didn't think Mikezumi would get her game before the bus came.
Shannon and Mikezumi got started on the gardening after the kids left for school.
Mikezumi did a couple of laps with the tractor before letting Shannon finish off. I wanted her to work on her wish to make 50 bottles of nectar. At the end of the day she had 45 bottles worth §7385!
Mikezumi rolled a wish to buy another nectar rack while making this batch. They now have 3 full racks!
Finnian went on a field trip to the Bistro. Norma Davidson was chaperone. Darwin Capp is sitting beside her.
Daniel and Goneril Capp were also there.
Mikezumi and Shannon flirted when Mikezumi had finished with her nectar.
Shannon chose the treehouse this time! He's changing things up a little
Shannon's waking wish was to catch a record sized fish. Mikezumi had a wish to catch a new type of fish.
Mikezumi got her wish with a perfect salmon weighing 50kg. She then rolled a wish to prepare grilled salmon.
Shannon caught a perfect Siamese catfish weighing 39kg but didn't get his wish so I left him fishing when I sent Mikezumi in to cook her salmon.
These cutlets didn't come from a 50kg salmon!
@bekkasan Lovely seeing Sam in your game Now you just need to point him in Emily's direction! @CravenLestat wasn't looking for anything. He has a lair in the wastelands where he takes his victims!
The treadmill is magical! I want one of those!
Jorge's jammies are cute!
Honey trees? Do they come with the game or are they CC?
Mixologists never stay at the bar in my experience!
I was hiding with the cute Dunes brothers and didn't want to be found! LOL
Watch out, mixologist, or you will end up in Craven's lair!
Whoa! Emily did lose a lot of weight. I almost didn't recognize her at the grocery store!
Great update! Good luck with the fairy opportunity
Congrats to Jorge on building his first plumbot!
Rosie is a piece of work! Poor Jorge!
@Silverofdreams30 Thanks Looking forward to seeing who Luna ends up with then I always think of cats as girls because I only ever have girl cats. Sorry!
@meerkattime Thanks for the lovely comments It's a good thing no-one is drinking the nectar after Mikezumi has been sitting in it
Sorry that your Mea and Maura save got corrupted.
It somehow makes sense that a ghost is making Grim snowmen
It's a pity that Mea and Goodwin's relationship didn't improve when you went back to an older save
The pic of Craven's SS and Judy is a hoot!
@Charlottesmom I put Finnian in because I knew you wanted to see him again
@coco It's been years since I saw the Palais. It looks great! I had many a fun day at Luna Park when I was a young woman Glad you enjoyed the concert The pics are wonderful!
The last time I tried to go to Luna Park was in 2004. I was visiting Australia and my sister suggested we go but it was closed. The kids didn't mind and ended up eating ice creams and walking along the beach before we went home.
@emorrill Fun seeing your TS2 pics Jules looks nice
LOL at her dancing in the nude
Cute prank!
@MoonandStars83 Thanks Your Rec Centre will be huge with another level AND sub levels! Good luck
Finnian got home early because of the field trip.
Moss didn't have Scouts and got home just before Finnian finished his homework.
Finnian came home with a wish to paint and Moss came home with a wish to invite one of his school friends over. I didn't know his friend so I cancelled the wish and sent him fishing instead because he had a wish to catch 5 different fish locked in. I forgot to take pics. The family gathered for Moss's birthday
Oh my! He does have hair but it's so short that it's barely visible because of the colour.
I know that his hairstyle is anachronous but this is Moss's original hair.
Moss got Green Thumb on aging up because that was one of his original traits. He rolled a wish to learn the gardening skill so I had him plant an apple tree to unhide the gardening skill he acquired from Scouts.
Mikezumi and Shannon watched the stars while Finnian painted. Finnian reached level 9!
Moss got his wish to catch 5 different fish and rolled a wish to catch every type of fish
I checked on Mikezumi and Shannon just in time to catch a heat of the moment kiss
Moss rolled a wish to attend Prom. I found Daniel while looking for Moss's future bf. He was at a bar with his mother when they should have been home celebrating a birthday. Moss's future bf hadn't aged up yet.
@bekkasan Fun pics of Jorge with the creepy crawlies!
That was great that Susan was home! It would have been sad if the first party thrown was a dud because the host didn't show up!
It does look like Jorge is playing air guitar!
Hearts means nothing but the big smiley face in his thought bubble is a worry
It's only fair that Judy got hearts as well
Gorgeous shot of Judy out looking for butterflies!
Great seeing Ashley Her room is lovely
Great update
@lanlyn Glad there won't be rats in your next update because they make my skin crawl (although I do love the pet variety).
Emad! He's such a naughty boy! You might need to change his personal SP settings so he can only flirt with Bebhinn! (Unless you like him like this ).
I hope Emad and Mikel can repair their relationship.
Wow! That is really weird that sims can talk to food! Ah, your explanation about brooding sims makes sense.
I feel really sorry for Mikel
Emad doesn't know when to stop!
Now Bebhinn has to witness his betrayal I would be beside myself if it were my game!
Lucky the apologies worked!
I hope the jamming session went some way to building up their relationships again.
I am so glad the kids didn't witness it!
LOL at forgetting the visiting kid but given the drama I totally understand.
Thanks for the lovely comments
I didn't make over any of the RH sims as I am only focusing on the main household. Contessa probably looks good because of my default replacement skin.
I love the tough guy look of the RH males - they are "real" men (or at least more like what my idea of "real" men should look like based probably on my age).
Mikezumi is doing the nectar making so that I can test how effective the tractor is in producing enough fruit for an active nectar maker. The first sim week was a bit of a loss because I hadn't thought of the idea yet and the produce was the low quality stuff that came with the lot and were all sold as I won't use less than perfect produce for food or nectar.
@Sofmc9 That looks like a great mod Adorable pics of the kids playing in puddles
@Charlottesmom Nice new house! Looking forward to seeing the finished product
I like the look of Blue! He's got a strong face which shows in all the life stages!
Did you make Winnie using a clone?
Eli's a good looking sim!
L looks positively miserable I don't know how you can kill all the extras. With mods you could get rid of them without hurting any feelings.
Thanks for the lovely comments
I haven't tried a wishes challenge but I don't really care for challenges with the exception of your 5x5.
I got a good chuckle from a couple of Finnian's paintings. Definitely not appropriate for a little boy
@Charlottesmom Thanks for the lovely comments I was going for the farm boy look It's only a short term save while I test RH, Grandpa's Grove and the viability of the tractor for a future nectar making save.
@Silverofdreams30 That's a good idea to age down the townies so Angel can spend more time with them!
Love the pic of Angel dancing on the table
Shadow is an adorable kitty
@PalmArrow Thanks I can't wait to see the fixer-upper when it's done but I won't be forcing my sims to work on it. They will work on it when they choose to. So far only Mikezumi has worked on it but Daniel tried to go out and work on it when he was visiting recently.
I love it when sims hug their family members autonomously Lloyd is a good son
George is a good boy for preparing breakfast Looks like Nathaniel choked on his
Kristina is very pretty!
@meerkattime Thanks for the lovely comments Mikezumi and Shannon need to test new things to make sure they are safe for the kids
Mikezumi is doing really well with the nectar. I won't be playing this save for long but I will be interested to see how much it is worth when I am done.
Thanks for pointing out my mistake. I would hate to think that plushtrap might feel ignored by me!
@plushtrap_107 Thanks for the lovely comments My sims rarely drink coffee because I never remember to put a coffee maker in the house but I imagine that would keep them awake too!
@bekkasan Thanks for the lovely comments I am looking forward to seeing the fixer-upper car when it is finished I actually chuckled when I saw Finnian and Daniel watching the side of the house because I have happy memories of my 5x5 save and all the house watching
Yay for Mikezumi throwing a party How dare she not invite Jorge and Judy!
Of course she invited the Dunes boys
Mikezumi would have loved the joke because she has a good sense of humour. She laughs a lot as do I
What a good hostess she is meeting everyone at the door
Congrats on Judy becoming a fairy
Hearts for Sam and Emily
Glad it wasn't anything serious between Mikezumi and Asher - she wouldn't like losing a friend!
Sam really loves his music!
Poor Jorge having to wait so long for his first kiss!
@Springfairy556 Glad you were able to save your game
Nice update. Looks like Francine accepts Michael for what he is
@TadOlson - I just don't find building fun lol.XD @bekkasan - Yup, she believed him lol. @Nikkei_Simmer - Boy she's not having fun doing homework. @Silverofdreams30- Beautiful horse! @meerkattime - Yeah I think so to.He's def a schmoozer lol.Ugh, I have reinstalling store items. @Charlottesmom - Always love seeing your sims! Its fun to mess with MOO sometimes. @lanlyn - Thanks! Took sometime to stage it, they kept wanting to wander off LOL. @king_of_simcity7 - omg! lol he reminds me of the old man from Hunchback of Notre Dame "I'm free I'm free" -trips- dang it.XD @Mikezumi - Thank you.I'm glad to reinstalling is a pain in the behind.Cool shot from inside the bus! She certainly does.
It's been quite warm here for the last couple of weeks but it finally got cold again today. It isn't as cold as it was a month or so ago.
I'm still coughing but am definitely improving. I have been working through this thread from where I last gave responses and feedback and it's taken my all morning so far. This, of course, means I probably won't have time now to work on the video. That's probably for the best as my voice is still a bit croaky.
@Puddinroy thank you - I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'll try to get another one up tomorrow. Will do the rest of the narration today and hopefully get it edited and uploaded tomorrow.
@lanlyn I think I'm almost better now. Still coughing but improving steadily.
I like how you set up that room with the huge TV on the wall.
Nice shot of Paladin sliding down the spiral stairs.
When I saw your post about the festival lot in Roaring Heights, I wondered if you have downloaded the festival lots for the store worlds that the SimGurus made for us. I have them all. They are the same as the original parks, but with festival objects added.
@meerkattime Thank you for subscribing to my channel. I hope you enjoy the videos you do manage to watch. I'm glad you found the process of fixing your mermaids to be useful.
I enjoyed your pictures of Triton and Sofia. I like the colour of Sofia's scales.
I hope you enjoy the story of Oscar's Childhood. The Oscar's Childhood videos are leading up to the Story of Oscar and Louise. It'll be best to see the childhood videos first. As soon as I've finished his childhood videos I'll move over to doing more chapters of Oscar and Louise and his story will pick up from there. Louise's childhood is in the Oscar and Louise videos. I only decided to do Oscar's childhood story after doing Louise's childhood and then it has been so much fun to work with Oscar and his family in Erewhon that I've made more vidoes of him than I originally meant to.
This is Louise as a child:
@meerkattime@Mikezumi@bekkasan@MoonandStars83 thank you. I'm getting there slowly. Hope to be over the cold soon. I'm improving every day. Not quite there yet but almost there I hope. It's been a week since I got sick. This is day 8. Prior to that I just sort of had a cold for a few days but felt fine.
@emorrill I've got a few QL episodes saved to watch but haven't watched any for a few weeks now. I'll get to them one day. I'm glad you sorted out your mod conflicts and hope you have had success with building some dormer windows.
I loved your sim with his cowplant hat. The rest of the costume should be somewhere in CAS.
I found this townie wearing it in my original Oscar and Louise game - the one I was playing before I decided to start again and turn them into a video.
The sim with the long straight blond hair is Louise. This is from the Story of Oscar and Louise when it was just a game I was playing - before I started recording the videos.
I hadn't realised it was in the game at the time and got a few pictures of it.
@coco thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'll hopefully have another episode of that story up soon.
I'll have another go with The Sims one day. I read somewhere that the version I have doesn't work with that file you downloaded. My first disk has the base game and Unleashed all on the one disk. I do have all of the other disks including Makin Magic.
I enjoyed seeing your colourful Sims 1 house. I vaguely remember that house.
@Charlottesmom I hope you enjoy the videos you do manage to watch. It's a shame you don't have time for the McFluff story because you did keep asking when I was going to start it and when I finally did get myself organised you got busy. Not to worry. I expect they'll be there for a while longer yet and you might get time one day. I don't have any more building videos planned at the moment - but I wasn't planning to do the dormer window video and it happened.
On the McFluff story - one of my friends posted something on Facebook recently that gave me evil ideas - her post was a wish to be able to turn people into cats to make the world a better place. Now - maybe I'm wondering exactly where Old Gertie got all of those cats and why she has this idea she wants to turn them into people.
For what it's worth, the three things I have found that have slowed my games down to slower than a turtle pace are: 1. Over full inventories (thousands of harvestables from using the green dragon or tractor to harvest) 2. Got carried away and added way too many plants to a lot (it looked lovely and tropical but all those plants wafting in the breeze made my sim so slow it was literally 5 minutes between each step. Had to do a bit of gardening and after removing most of the plants all was back to normal.) 3. Massive numbers of horses and strays and homeless sims moved it (but I used a mod to get rid of them not sure h ow you'll fix that one without mods). Cars and limos can do it too but I have Overwatch mod to fix them. An over abundance of ice cream trucks or police cars can be interesting too - the roads get totally clogged but you can at least seem them.
My Tropical Rain Forest that brought my game to a halt:
Fixed it:
My fav night time shot of it
BTW: it's in my studio - two versions. One with the resort towers on the roof and one withoug the resort. There is a casino inside plus other attractions.
OK - I shouldn't have started posting pictures. Here's the casino version in Lucky Palms
I like your Riverview version of you fake uni.
@plushtrap_107 thank you. So far the rinkie dinkie kitchen sinkie hasn't broken. I like to build a big basement and then divide it up into rooms. In this case though, the basement isn't that big. But it does cover the entire lot so the lot isn't very big either - but then it isn't the tiniest available either.
@Tarante11a lucky your sim had a death flower. Years ago one of my sims got hit by a meteor while outdoors tending her garden at home. She died. Grim turned up and she handed over her death flower. That's when I finally worked out what death flowers are for.
Sims always die if they get electrocuted while standing in water.
@SillyCharlie having sims float is something you'll probably see again. Best not to panic. Just reset and move on.
I've given out likes and awesomes. Haven't commented on many posts though. I'll have to leave it here and try to catch up again on another day. Have things to do around the house now. Then, if I have some time I'll try to work on the next video for a while.
Comments
@bekkasan Thanks for the comment
That's cool about the skills
Hit Play

That's just awesome. Very amazing. I'm deeply touched and my evening became much better
the feeling. I have played some sims 4 and sims 2 today.
Thank you.
@bekkasan Thank you
Can I play with anyone online in the same game as me or?
Not a lot of time right now, but I wanted to do some feedback. As always, I really appreciate those who've made comments on my posts.

Mikezumi would have loved the joke because she has a good sense of humour. She laughs a lot as do I
What a good hostess she is meeting everyone at the door
Congrats on Judy becoming a fairy
Hearts for Sam and Emily
Glad it wasn't anything serious between Mikezumi and Asher - she wouldn't like losing a friend!
Sam really loves his music!
Poor Jorge having to wait so long for his first kiss!
@Springfairy556 Glad you were able to save your game
Nice update. Looks like Francine accepts Michael for what he is
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers

Took these pics a week or two ago... had forgotten about them!
Jason had decided to visit his friend Holly for the day. (She had been swimming when he came over, explains the bikini )
It started out totally casual... they ate a meal together, chatted a lot, caught some TV. Basically getting to know each other better as friends.
But then... something stirred within him...
Jason took a leap...
And Holly was agreeable.
They went outside to watch the stars.
Soon after, Jason headed home. He had asked to spend the night, but Holly wanted to take things slow. He was content and happy, nevertheless.
Now if only he could get his career and finances in order...
I'm still coughing but am definitely improving. I have been working through this thread from where I last gave responses and feedback and it's taken my all morning so far. This, of course, means I probably won't have time now to work on the video. That's probably for the best as my voice is still a bit croaky.
@Puddinroy thank you - I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'll try to get another one up tomorrow. Will do the rest of the narration today and hopefully get it edited and uploaded tomorrow.
@lanlyn I think I'm almost better now. Still coughing but improving steadily.
I like how you set up that room with the huge TV on the wall.
Nice shot of Paladin sliding down the spiral stairs.
When I saw your post about the festival lot in Roaring Heights, I wondered if you have downloaded the festival lots for the store worlds that the SimGurus made for us. I have them all. They are the same as the original parks, but with festival objects added.
@meerkattime Thank you for subscribing to my channel. I hope you enjoy the videos you do manage to watch. I'm glad you found the process of fixing your mermaids to be useful.
I enjoyed your pictures of Triton and Sofia. I like the colour of Sofia's scales.
I hope you enjoy the story of Oscar's Childhood. The Oscar's Childhood videos are leading up to the Story of Oscar and Louise. It'll be best to see the childhood videos first. As soon as I've finished his childhood videos I'll move over to doing more chapters of Oscar and Louise and his story will pick up from there. Louise's childhood is in the Oscar and Louise videos. I only decided to do Oscar's childhood story after doing Louise's childhood and then it has been so much fun to work with Oscar and his family in Erewhon that I've made more vidoes of him than I originally meant to.
This is Louise as a child:
@meerkattime @Mikezumi @bekkasan @MoonandStars83 thank you. I'm getting there slowly. Hope to be over the cold soon. I'm improving every day. Not quite there yet but almost there I hope. It's been a week since I got sick. This is day 8. Prior to that I just sort of had a cold for a few days but felt fine.
@emorrill I've got a few QL episodes saved to watch but haven't watched any for a few weeks now. I'll get to them one day. I'm glad you sorted out your mod conflicts and hope you have had success with building some dormer windows.
I loved your sim with his cowplant hat. The rest of the costume should be somewhere in CAS.
I found this townie wearing it in my original Oscar and Louise game - the one I was playing before I decided to start again and turn them into a video.
The sim with the long straight blond hair is Louise. This is from the Story of Oscar and Louise when it was just a game I was playing - before I started recording the videos.
I hadn't realised it was in the game at the time and got a few pictures of it.
@coco thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'll hopefully have another episode of that story up soon.
I'll have another go with The Sims one day. I read somewhere that the version I have doesn't work with that file you downloaded. My first disk has the base game and Unleashed all on the one disk. I do have all of the other disks including Makin Magic.
I enjoyed seeing your colourful Sims 1 house. I vaguely remember that house.
@Charlottesmom I hope you enjoy the videos you do manage to watch. It's a shame you don't have time for the McFluff story because you did keep asking when I was going to start it and when I finally did get myself organised you got busy. Not to worry. I expect they'll be there for a while longer yet and you might get time one day. I don't have any more building videos planned at the moment - but I wasn't planning to do the dormer window video and it happened.
On the McFluff story - one of my friends posted something on Facebook recently that gave me evil ideas - her post was a wish to be able to turn people into cats to make the world a better place. Now - maybe I'm wondering exactly where Old Gertie got all of those cats and why she has this idea she wants to turn them into people.
For what it's worth, the three things I have found that have slowed my games down to slower than a turtle pace are: 1. Over full inventories (thousands of harvestables from using the green dragon or tractor to harvest) 2. Got carried away and added way too many plants to a lot (it looked lovely and tropical but all those plants wafting in the breeze made my sim so slow it was literally 5 minutes between each step. Had to do a bit of gardening and after removing most of the plants all was back to normal.) 3. Massive numbers of horses and strays and homeless sims moved it (but I used a mod to get rid of them not sure h ow you'll fix that one without mods). Cars and limos can do it too but I have Overwatch mod to fix them. An over abundance of ice cream trucks or police cars can be interesting too - the roads get totally clogged but you can at least seem them.
My Tropical Rain Forest that brought my game to a halt:
Fixed it:
My fav night time shot of it
BTW: it's in my studio - two versions. One with the resort towers on the roof and one withoug the resort. There is a casino inside plus other attractions.
OK - I shouldn't have started posting pictures. Here's the casino version in Lucky Palms
I like your Riverview version of you fake uni.
@plushtrap_107 thank you. So far the rinkie dinkie kitchen sinkie hasn't broken. I like to build a big basement and then divide it up into rooms. In this case though, the basement isn't that big. But it does cover the entire lot so the lot isn't very big either - but then it isn't the tiniest available either.
@Tarante11a lucky your sim had a death flower. Years ago one of my sims got hit by a meteor while outdoors tending her garden at home. She died. Grim turned up and she handed over her death flower. That's when I finally worked out what death flowers are for.
Sims always die if they get electrocuted while standing in water.
@SillyCharlie having sims float is something you'll probably see again. Best not to panic. Just reset and move on.
I've given out likes and awesomes. Haven't commented on many posts though. I'll have to leave it here and try to catch up again on another day. Have things to do around the house now. Then, if I have some time I'll try to work on the next video for a while.
Happy Simming all
I'm up to the end of page 2891
