Hello! Long time player here. I used to hang around the forum quite a bit, but I haven't had the chance to game in a few years. TS3 holds a special place in my heart; however, so I'm happy to finally be getting back into it. Only, I feel like I've forgotten everything I knew! My old rig died around 2020. I just recently…

The second has proven itself infinitely more challenging! I've worked on it on-and-off for about a year with no end in sight. I haven't done ANYTHING on the upper two floors.
-
I've been working on two new houses for Storybrook. The first, Berkshire House, is nearly done.
-
I built it all myself on the lot that used to be the ugly Lil Bling mansion in Bridgeport. I had been searching and searching for floorpans but I could find any I liked. I started building three different homes on that lot and bulldozed them all. This house is sort of my dark horse. I don't use anything to build it other…

@lanlyn, she stole some money from her parents (when I was focusing on her sister's household) and stole the husband of one of her mother's friends. She hadn't been welcome around her relatives for quite a while. Seems like she's back up to her old tricks. I'm inclined to disinherit her!

Now that the holidays were over and Spring had...sprung, Abigail began to go about closing up the apartment to return to their second home, Villa Striker, in the hills. She started by paying her first bills of the year and then throwing a very small birthday party for her eldest daughter, Julia, who was aging up! They left…

I almost play exclusively in Bridgeport!
-
I hope you enjoy it! I spent a solid three days remodeling houses when I downloaded that file. I'm itching to play right now but the way my schedule works and because I can't police myself to just play for an hour, I hardly ever have time to play Wednesdays through Sundays. Have fun!
-
This is just adorable! How wonderful would it be to have spent so much time wondering when something would be released only to discover that it came out 9 years ago and there is a ton of content you didn't know about to play with? I hope you have fun with it, @GrandmaJaney!
-
I just checked. I have my property taxes set at 12% (still high) and my income taxes at 16% - however, I do this because I have a lower, middle, upper, and "1%" class. The one percent are manly old money and the figures I gave are for that caste only. I do this because I use the familyfunds cheat on families I play to to…
-
You know what, that may be it. While I was playing another household the sim in question bought a vehicle. It's a CC vehicle worth about 300,000 simoleons! Yikes! But that would explain the jump in value.
-
Abigail and her family, holding to tradition, returned to their penthouse in the city just before Christmas. She spent some time talking to her sister, Natasha, who had been estranged from the family. After putting the babies down, she and Marcelo sat down for dinner. The next day while her daughter played, Abigail sat…
-
@lanlyn, they can be found here; however, it's all in one .package file that includes almost all of the custom the furniture, paintings, (and more) you saw in my photo. You won't be able to pick just the rugs, but you can get them, among other things, from this file. I didn't download it myself but if you were looking for…
-
Thank you! I used to have a phobia of CC, but once I got comfortable with it, I went a little overboard and, in the process, found some GREAT pieces! I've had to force myself to stop downloading so much so that I don't hamper actual game performance (thankfully, it still runs like a dream).
-
Nope. Unless you specifically make sure that happens (kicking the spouse out of the house and moving your sims in).
-
After giving birth to her second daughter Caroline, named in honor of her mother, Abigail and husband Marcelo were anxious to get out of the city for a while, so they left their townhouse for their hillside Villa: Despite the rigidly formal furnishings, Abigail is happiest at their idyllic hillside home and was relieved to…
-
I do mine a little differently. I use the "familyfunds" cheat to bulk up the bank account according to my Sims' activities. So, say my sim reached the top of the business career, then I would use the family funds cheat to give him a a salary that I think lines up with that. I do that because I use story progression to set…
-
Honestly, I told myself I'd go with the firstborn, but I always end up picking who I like the best. A couple of months ago, I had a particularly wealthy family disinherit their eldest in favor of their younger sibling because she just could not get along with her mother and even stole a sizable sum of money when she moved…
-
Those darn cheap ovens!
-
@SimplyJen yes, I didn't know where to put the thread LOL. But thank you for your response! I've been so busy lately and I finally have time to get into the game a little that I wanted to take care of my system first.
-
Definitely babies. On the other hand, I play Adults the most.
-
I always start out with one family but as these generations progress, I find myself wanting to control the actions of every descendant. I have to force myself to pick one child to carry on the legacy, otherwise I get nothing done switching from the houses of 5 adult siblings trying to force them to take the path I want…
-
I think it was part of a New Orleans Bathroom set on TSR, but I could be wrong. I'll try to double check later!

Some more shots of the new Striker property: Alice was contacted by her agent asking if she would be willing to present a check at the local school. Marcelo was out at work, so she called a nanny, got dressed, and headed down there. Afterwards--she's still on maternity leave--she spent some time playing with her cat,…
-
Alice went into labor with her first child at about 3 AM on the last day of Summer. Luckily, the labor was easy and she brought home a bouncing baby girl named Julia. Her first course of action was to get rid of her dreadful maternity clothes after placing her daughter in her new crib. She paid some bills before going to…
-
@CravenLestat, thank you!!!
-
Alice has had a mysterious illness for a few days and can't figure out why! Still on leave from work after her wedding, she decided to try and get a bit of work done: Later that night, they had a much unwanted guest. After all the excitement, Alice discovered that the origins of her illness was a result of her first…
-
Heavens! It's been so long since I discovered it was in my game. I've only ever downloaded from TSR, so had to be there. I don't remember much else except that I didn't download it as an individual item. I think it came in a package/set of furniture but I don't remember what it was. Sorry!
-
Muffy went out with a few friends who pressured her into singing some karaoke. She had fun, but it didn't sound too hot... She returned home to pay some bills. Taxes in the city sure are rising! Muffy's daughter, Alexandra, has aged up and Muffy is weighing sending her off to LeFromage Art School. Muffy went to Smuggsworth…

Are those curtains a wallpaper or a build mode item? I love them! Do you remember where you found them? Or are they already in the game?
Howdy, Stranger!
