  • Yeah, but if you look closely, he's fully clothed. You can see the seams. Only his head and his hands are sticking out of his suit, and even the feet wear socks. The game just chose the wrong texture. I love greenhouses, so I'm looking forward to a pic of yours :smile: . Sure, will do :wink: . And yeah, most of us here…
  • That still works if the two women are his sisters. Also, that doesn't mean he wasn't married, especially in the time periods the game seems to be depicting. Heh, that happens. Though I feel the itch, I won't start yet another Twinbrook game. I already have a few of those, one of them with the Bayless family. I added a lot…
  • I don't see any difference. Then again, my game was never really as fast as that of other people, as my computer is really old.
  • @thuggishsplicer That's a nice house you replaced the barn with :smile: . And I have already used that bin house in Riverview. I like it, but if I remember correctly, it had a bit too much outer hallway for my taste (easily changeable, of course). The house definitely fits this lot well :smile: . Regarding "stories" in…
  • Yup. I found the site with the color palettes (with the "misspelled colour" in its name :lol: ) quite useful. Given my impaired color vision, that might come useful. That's actually one of the many little stories hidden in objects or character descriptions. Pattina's big dream was to run a catering service out of their…
  • The magnolia blooms are nearly over, but I can't wait for spring :smile: _______________________________________________________ Anyway, I may just post a few pics from my current game. Wednesday Addams was doing her homework, while Lurch was playing videogames. Her brother Pugsley was playing chess in the background. The…
  • @emorrill Yeah, there are still quite a few among the EA worlds that I never really played. @Silverofdreams30 I can imagine that it's cold at your place. It isn't really warm here, either. 8 degrees C max and rain. What is not to love. @stickykisses Looks as if you are determined to go wild with skins :lol: . @ddsims3world…
  • Hello, I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend! Without tornadoes, naturally. I never had to think about those, but during the last years, we had a few in the vicinity. I guess times are changing. @Sprottenham Yeah, I can see that you get attached to your sims. Happens to me, too. I guess some of you may be tired seeing…
  • @Silverofdreams30 Thank you :smile: . No worries, you didn't have a chance to say anything, as I only mentioned it in passing in one of my latest posts, and after the fact :wink: . And yes, I had a pleasant day :smile: . __________________________________________________________________________________________________ I…
  • @emorrill Thank you :smile: . Yes, we are just a week apart. Plus a few decades, of course :lol: .
  • Hmm, let's think about it for a moment. There isn't really that much I'd put into that category. 1. The MultiTab 6000. It saves so much time for some skills, it isn't even funny. It allows for multi-tasking, too. 2. The SwiftGro Gardening station. Helps enormously with the weeding and fertilizing. Speeds up growth with at…
  • Certainly not me. What does the EA App say? That's still a lot of time, as I started very late into the game's life cycle. @Rflong7 I'm so sorry. I hope that gets fixed, given how much fun you had with CAW. I'm currently using one of your worlds, so thank you very much for that!.
  • Hi everybody, just a short look what you are all up to :smile: . @emorrill Some very belated happy birthday wishes from me! Good luck for the next year of your life. I hope you have a nice work environment. I see you still have fun with those fantasy game armors :). @Brandontaylor Some even more belated birthday wishes.…
  • @Silverofdreams30 That's cool. Knowing me, it will probably be a few years until I get to that game :lol: . @ButterWafflesAR Great you got that greenhouse fixed and it was just a glitch. Regarding skins, I use one called Mango Smoothie (here's the download page).I didn't really play, so here's some older pic. Malcolm…
  • Hmm, one of my posts seems to be missing. May not have sent it after editing or some nonsense like that. Next try... @Silverofdreams30 Thank you! Do you like the game? I haven't played a new release in a while. While the game I'm mostly playing at the moment is a "youngster" compared to Sims3, it's still 10 years old. I…
  • @texansky Good luck for your husband and you! @ButterWafflesAR Make sure your greenhouse has a floor (yours doesn't seem to have any) and a proper roof, or, in other words, is a valid indoors location. Nice family!
  • Ah, Keening! Good memories! I had been using that one a lot in Morrowind. The Skyrim version not so much. There's some other Elder Scrolls stuff among those items.
  • Hi! Great updates, everyone. I hadn't started the game in a while and was surprised by a screen that forced me to update from Origin to the EA App. I took this as a hint to back out, make a somewhat overdue backup of the files, and then try my luck. The updater downloaded something (the EA App, I guess), uninstalled…
  • Hi everyone! I thought I'd stop by for a moment. I'm still playing something else mostly, but have that SV game running on the side once in a while. Looks as if most of you are doing fine :smile: . Congrats on your new job, @emorrill . Not sure whether anyone remembers, but I had started this game with a sim I made, Arthur…
  • Thank you. Yeah, they bought all of them, given they're two guys. I meant the option that came with ITF, where you pay 5000 simoleons to have a baby engineered at the hospital. You have the option between a random baby (not completely random, but using the genetics of the two parents you choose) or a designer baby, where…
  • Cyclone wanted to have another child, so they bought a new one, which brought it up to four. I'm not sure whether dried wood and pyrotechnics are such a good combination, but here we go with the "pirate battles". Here's Derek, the straggler. Gage was also hit by an abduction, and he was less lucky. We know how this ends,…
  • I may as well give the Cliff's Notes of what happened in that game of mine. We had five children in the household at the time I last posted something. Three of the kids were bought at the hospital, and the other two were imaginary friends. Rick was the one who had managed to research the necessary potion, and that served…
  • Hello, I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas time. The weeks before had been rather cold, but as usual, it got warm for Christmas Eve and thereafter (I guess I know where the cold went). It was about 13 degrees C and even sunny in the afternoon. I had to switch off the heating because the low winter sun was shining…
  • @Sprottenham Heh, thanks. Yes, Emma had the best outfit at the party! That was so fitting. Yes, I could see you were going for character when you worked on the Reppe family, just to give them personality :smile: . Regarding greenhouses, for them to work, you must make sure they have a solid floor. If it's not a valid room…
  • @emorrill Hey, thanks for the welcome. Great that I see you doing a new Christmas story. I'm curious how you will solve this situation. Let's see whether it turns out to be some special kind of "business meeting". A bit of drama, but a way out, given in which direction the story steers. Anyway, great writing, and I'm…
  • Hello everybody. I thought I'd have a short look around :smile: . I hope you are all looking forward to the holidays. I'm still playing that different game, but played a bit with Sims3 in between, too, so I may as well post some pics of what happened. I left when Arthur Dent and Xander Clavell had moved in with Madison…
  • Hmm, a question dear to my heart. No, pudding sims aren't ugly. However, that doesn't change anything about the point I consider them to be a blight on the game. Let me elaborate. When I started with Sims3 just a few years ago, I was playing completely without mods and with EA Story Progression on, just to get a feel for…
  • Hi, I sometimes look at this thread, but I'm still playing that other game at the moment. I hope everyone's okay (did anyone hear anything from bekkasan?). As it was a extraordinarily pleasant October day, I finally visited the Roman town of Carnuntum today, or better what's left of it and what got reconstructed. Much of…
  • I used Firefox to download the file up there, so I guess it has to do with your settings.
