    What do you guys think? Should I keep her pale or make her darker like her parents?

    Has she aged up from Infant, yet? I would wait and see if her skin tone changes, first. You might be pleasantly surprised.

    I feel like the next CAS kit needs to be all male jeans/shorts. And good options please. Nothing ripped or torn or with patterns, patches or accessories (well maybe a chain wallet). Just straight leg, skinny, baggy, cuffed (and not rolled or enormous cuffs like the ones from Get Together). Shorts that are a proper length and some longer, baggy ones for teens. Denim shorts! What do we have to do for decent male jeans around here?! 😭

    I dunno if anyone already mentioned this or not, but I would love to be able to give all my sims pointy ears, or at least have my mermaids be able to keep their pointy ears in their human form. Also speaking of, why not elves? Hm.

    Also I am trying to get 25 points but I don't know what I'm doing or what points are or how you get them lol, so I'm sorry about posting comments on so many things. I just am kind of lost.
    All my daily trances, and all my nightly dreams, are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams.
    I dance to the beat of my own drum, no matter how measured or far away.
    I do love a road. You can always be wondering what is at the end of it.

    Are you talking about forum points for creating your own thread? If I'm not mistaken, you have to have 30 to become a member. From the looks of your profile, you've already reached member status.

    Yes, I reached it exactly 20 minutes after I posted that! I mainly wanted to get a profile picture. :D Silly I know...

    @KestralDC If you opt to keep her pale, you can always add some freckles. I got lucky, I don't have freckles, nor am I deathly pale.

    I am pale but I always get told that I have "peaches and cream skin" so I am hoping that means it's ok. I don't have freckles either. My sister is more of a cool tone, she had freckles when she was a small kid, but they went away. Oh, red hair!

    Thanks so much! I'm at home a lot...every weekday lol. It's lame. It's nice to find a community of people who share a specific interest.

    Edit: I want to say that I'm not "unemployed" - I have disabilities and can't work. So I'm not, you know, able to work but not working. I felt embarrassed thinking that someone may think that. I mean no one should be embarrassed if they are unemployed. That happens to everyone sometimes. But you know what I mean.

    Do we still have the memory system, with the screenshots? I'm talking about the one that you could assign different emotions to screenshots in game, and have your sim reminisce?

    Edit: Nevermind. I probably should have checked before posting. Anyway, for future reference, it's still there, but you can't choose the emotion. It seems like you used to be able to.

    Edit 2: typo

    Hi sorry to bother I'm quite new here and I'm not sure where to ask a question I have. I'm trying to find a house on the gallery that I believe to be an EA one. I would love to download it for my sims and I'm rubbish at building so can't replicate it. I'm wondering if anyone on the forum can point me in the right direction on the gallery. Many thanks

    Hi! Welcome to the forums! It's not on the Gallery to my knowledge. It was just a house from the original Sims 4 trailer. However, I do believe James Turner rebuilt it.

    Hi @SweetieWright_84 I think the memory carries whatever emotion your sim was in, similar to the emotional aura that photos get when taken in a certain emotion.

    Yeah, it does. I tested it after I asked the inital question. I probably should have tested before asking but I honestly didn't think of it. Thanks for the help though.

    Ok.... this marks the second time I've found a good Sim to be my Sim's partner, added to household, gone into CAS to touch them up, and been surprised to find they're an alien 🐸🐸🐸🐸. Do wish they had that "link ___" thing between their forms werewolves, vampires, and mermaids do. Drives me nuts, TBH.

    Also.... the mixologist at a nightclub showed up to work flirty because Love Day but then while building some friendship and getting to know her my Sim discovered she had the Unflirty trait :lol:

    Is there a way for aliens to tell Sims they're aliens? I've been having to make my aliens use their alien abilities but that impacts the relationships and gives the aliens an embarrassed moodlet and a tense one.

    I find it frustrating as well to find a Sim to be my Sims partner. I usually end up creating a Sim and moving them a few houses down so they can have a chance meeting LOL
    I am not happy with Sims that my Sim meets. No one that I really want to join the household.
    Wish I could answer your question.

    Does anyone know how to resolve the infinite loading screen? Once The Sims 4 Logo appears, as of this afternoon it's stuck on the spinning plumbob. I can't even get to resume game. I removed my mods folder and repaired the game and that didn't do the trick.

    I would also like some additional formal wear for men. I know there's only so many designs, but still.

    I realize now, I chose the wrong skin tone for my avatar. I'm not pinky-white. Nor pale, even after years of being out of the sun (doctor's orders). Skin cancer runs in my family :open_mouth: I'm more of a warm tone altogether. I got lucky, as I see it. And, at one time I used to tan beautifully, despite the red of my hair.

    Are you able to get into your game now? I just opened mine. I really hope that it's working now.

    When you removed your mods folder, did you also clear your localthumbcache file?

    Something else you could try is regenerate a new Sims 4 folder. Change your current one to something like The Sims 4.OLD (make sure you do the dot). Start the game so it will regenerate another folder. If it works as intended, close out the game, and put the contents of your Saves, Tray and Options into the new folder. Check it again, and if it still does as intended, put your mods back either with the 50/50 method or one at a time. This will help you narrow down if it was a mod issue or a game bug. If it's still stuck in the infinite loading loop, before adding mods, I would assume it's a bug, which will need to be reported to AHQ.

    Edit: Also go the Mods section of these forums and see if any mods you use need updates. luthienrising does an awesome job updating the thread.

    Welcome to the Forums! I'm home most days of the week, too. I was a Homemaker, as I prefer to call it. Not a Housewife (not married to my house) and not a Stay-at-Home-Mom (because I wasn't always at home). I raised our three children and then babysat a grandson for a time. I have no energy to go to work these days, so I'm happy to follow my pursuits: Sims, genealogy, and writing my novels.
