Everyone in the group seemed to have been enjoying themselves so Simon went to the bar to buy himself a drink. He kept looking over to the group and felt annoyed that Nick was still talking to Humara. What was he playing at? Had this been going on all night?
Simon returned to the group with a drink for himself and one for Humara. She thanked him but was still talking to Nick seemingly laughing at all of his jokes. It seemed that everyone else in the group had no problem talking to Simon but he felt that Humara was just not interested in him.
Eventually everyone decided to head to the dance floor and Simon finally had the chance to talk to Humara more and she then seemed to be her normal self. He managed to make conversation about work and had hoped that he was just being paranoid about her being off with him. He managed to spend time with her for most of the evening but it was still not quite as it felt during the previous times that they had been out together. Nick was becoming an obstacle and Simon felt like Nick was watching him.
Simon asked Humara what she had planned during the week and had hoped to have another date with her. She seemed interested and then mentioned a plan for the following weekend. Everyone was going to go to the fairground but of course Simon would be working that night.
The family enjoyed waffles for breakfast
Shannon and Mikezumi did the gardening
Keanu's waking wish was to talk to someone which he got over breakfast. He painted until the school bus came
Mikezumi's waking wish was to catch a record sized fish
After Shannon had caught a few fish I sent him to the Diner to learn how to grow eggs and cheese.
Then I sent him to the Town Hall to collect his Gardening Hero Trophy
Shannon planted some egg and cheese when he got home
While Shannon was out he rolled a wish to learn the guitar skill
Shannon isn't a virtuoso so found it a little hard going
Romance is much easier for Shannon
Keanu did his homework when he got home
Shannon and Mikezumi had just finished woohooing when I saw kids starting to arrive. According to her work schedule she had the day off and none of the kids had the usual status reports when hovering my cursor over them.
@sassygray5 The problem children certainly are annoying!
Congrats to Elisabeth and Calypso on their win
It's bad enough reading books in the bathroom but cleaning the toilet while holding one is worse!
@emorrill Nice haircut for Samantha
It must be difficult with both Sam and Jules suffering from Postpartum Depression.
That's great that Leanna is there to help out
Ah! There could be something there between Logan and Leanna
That is a scary pic of Logan! Some sliders need to be used sparingly
@ZhakiraP Sir Lowell's family looks great!
Lady Bronhilde and Lady Beatrice are lovely looking teens
Congrats to Lady Agnes on her pregnancy!
Great expression you caught on Sir Gregor
Thanks for the nice comments
Yes, the Daycare career is definitely horrific!
River and Keanu just aged up and I can't wait for them to start having babies but I am thinking they might go to uni first so I can take a break from the Daycare career
@coco Thanks for the lovely comments
It turned out Sunshine was really a girl! I never checked myself but took note when I saw the popup about her teen birthday
I don't think Sophie will look good as a YA
How wonderful that you have been playing!
Adorable pics of the boys
@Steamvarius Cute pics of the kids having fun at Bonbon Lawn
The pinch cheek interaction is only available to elders. I have a mod which makes it available to adults because it's not uncommon for my adults to be grandparents. Only elders will do it autonomously, though.
While Mikezumi was telling Reynaldo to do his homework Shannon came out to pinch Jeanna's cheek I was surprised he chose that interaction as he doesn't know her!
Alberto arrived while Shannon was pinching Jeanna's cheek and joined the others at homework.
Abel chose to do his homework outside. Luther stumbled on his way up the stairs
Not only was I not able to see what the kids needed, but the "do homework" interaction that comes with the Family Oriented trait was hit or miss so all Mikezumi could do was talk to Sunshine.
Sunshine went straight to the bathroom after their talk
Abel and Luther played tag in the front yard
After Sunshine broke the tub, the option to "do homework" was back! It was after 7 and the kids were still there so Mikezumi served the family dinner.
Sunshine broke the stereo next!
The option to "talk about problems" wasn't there so I did the only thing available to me and that was to put Sunshine in a timeout!
I felt very sorry for her but it had to be done!
It was now almost 8 and the kids were still there so Shannon fed them.
When 9pm had come and gone I had had enough and told the kids to go home. Mikezumi and Shannon barely had time to watch the stars before bed.
@DeafSimmer It sounds and looks like Nebula is going through a rough patch right now.
Well, she did wish her sister wasn't so perfect. I'd say trying to steal your boyfriend and sabotaging a computer is not perfect.
@ataraxialife Congrats on the toddlers birthdays. They are adorable. Glad Reese is staying in touch with little Jared.
Holly and Conner look cute together. Congrats to them.
That is great that Reese was able to bring Jared home.
@jonny522 Ryan's first kiss! Oh, Dad has to leave again. So sad. I hope all goes well.
@sassygray5 Thanks for the comment about the house. I love big houses! I have a small one in rl so I get to enjoy thru my sims. There are land spawners and ocean spawners for the bottles. So I put one on the property when I built it. They have different messages in them too so it is fun having my sim read the messages.
Dominik turned out very handsome! Sweet pictures of Nicole!
@rubyskywalker I hope you will let us know here when you post updates in creative corner. I like that you've organized some names already for the potential children. It sounds like a fun story and interesting challenge.
@Silverofdreams30 It is a challenge with three and am playing with full autonomy so keeping up with them can be a challenge too. Luckily I can plunk them at the block table when I need to do something with the parents during the day to keep them from getting lost. I found Erin in the sky once and not sure why, except I had ended the game with her in the ball pit and I think the game didn't know where to put her back.
Love the pictures of Tanya and Snow White. Beautiful!
@king_of_simcity7 Are you going to use the poses in your story or just show pics of the girls with the poses?
Interesting addition to the story. Simon needs to quit worrying so much, it will either happen or not happen. He needs to enjoy the moment.
@Mikezumi Lovely pics as always of your family's daily life.
lol at Sunshine continuing to break things. I'm amazed you have not TA'd her! I guess time out was appropriate for a child that is not doing it on purpose.
Wonder why the kids stayed so late that night!
@bekkasan The poses where just for fun and couldn't fit in the story at the moment lol I will have another update ready but off to work in a minute so will share later but i have been writing a lot about Simon and things will continue to get interesting!
@Mikezumi that's strange that the daycare kids showed up on her day off! I've never had that happen before. I've put kids in time out before too they always look so sad
Dwight makes waffles for breakfast for him and Lorelei and the triplets get oatmeal with blueberries. After helping to clean the kids up and get them settled for the day Dwight goes to the police station to see if any jobs are available.
Dwight finds a new job awaiting him at the police station. He has to help this sim find a potential girlfriend. This is not exactly what Dwight had in mine in becoming a PI. He talks to the man and asks him why he does not use the internet dating sites. "Do you know how many married women are on the internet posing as singles?" the man asks Dwight. "Well, no not really." Dwight tells him he will do his best. (don't you admire my restraint from sending him straight to the stylist room!) His first stop is to Pearl to find out if any of her friends are single, lonely and looking for a boyfriend. He then talks with Jules to get a single guys perspective and he gives him the same name as Pearl. The final person he talks with is one of the local paparazzi. She gives the same name as Pearl and Jules. He contacts his client and gives him the name and address of the lonely lady. Lets hope he gets a more interesting case the next time.
Dwight accepts another job. She has lost a book and would like for Dwight to recover it. It is getting late in the day and Dwight tells her he will start the search tomorrow.
When he gets home he helps Lorelei put the kids to bed and she takes him by the hand to the elevator. She pushes the basement button when they get in. Dwight is slightly disappointed as he was expecting elevator woohoo.
She shows him the surprise she got for him. "We've been so busy that we just don't have time to get to the spa for massages anymore, so I got one of these and had it delivered. Hop up!" Dwight gives her a big hug and hops up on the table. She gives him a romantic massage and he gives her a romantic kiss. Dwight gets his elevator woohoo wish. (I love the guilty looks on their faces when the elevator doors open up)
"Good evening my lady.Is there anything I could do for you?" "Hello, Peter.I'm just out for a stroll.Thank you."
"If you should need anything, I'll be by the carriage."
"Your skills with a bow are most impressive, Lancelot." Sabrina watched the knight practice."Thank you, my lady.I have many years of experience." "I have shot a few myself" Sabrina added."Oh really? May I see my lady's skills then?"
That look he is giving her...
"My lord, your lady is most skilled with a bow." Arthur smiled intently at his bride to be."I'm quite aware of that."
"Well, my dear.Its getting late.Shall we head back to the castle?" "Yes, I'm a little bit tired anyhow."
@GraceyManor Oooh where did you get those tents? Is that bow and arrow store content? I think I've maybe seen it before but don't think I have it.
@bekkasan Is that the detective career? It's been a long time since I've played that. I really like the beach photo you have hanging on the wall.
@RacheltheGoddess Welcome to the forums. There is a thread for new members to post game issues here: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/893122/thread-for-new-members-to-post-their-sims-3-game-issues#latest I actually posted a similar issue in the general discussion thread earlier this week and clearing my Internet Explorer cache solved my issue. I suggest if that does not work making a comment at the link above.
I switched back to my Alpine County save tonight. Not too much to report but here are some screenshots I took:
Corwin woke Ellie up:
Ellie makes a snow angel on the last day of winter:
Ellie and her best friend Emerald having a snowball fight:
Elisabeth trained with Pepper and Calypso. She has reached level 8 of the riding skill.
@sassygray5
Thank you, the bow and arrow is a store item.
part of the Duke's Renaissance venue.(can't remember the name.)
I'm not sure where the tents came from, I think they came with a world I downloaded.
I accidentally stumbled upon them in my decor section.
Sadly I don't have my entire story posted in a thread, as I'm not really a writer so I don't usually keep it updated.
Today we'll begin with the spotlight on Anna. She had two wishes. She wanted to meet someone new, and wanted to encounter a vampire.
She decided to take a trip to the nearby Alvi household. They are the very close neighbors of the Haddocks.
Not only did she meet someone new- she found her vampires:
...she found an entire household of vampires to be exact!
Anna was friendly enough, but she definitely has no wish to join the legions of the undead.
(Note: There will be no vampires in this legacy installment, unless of course one of the family gets bitten randomly when I'm not at the controls)
Anna hastily made her departure, having fulfilled her two wishes.
In the meantime, Reese was busy staying in shape for work. Took a picture of that and the carpool:
Reese is an in shape Sim! Meaning he'll probably definitely live longer than Tintin did.
Speaking of Tintin...and Zelda:
Reese has the sudden urge to see his parents again, so he mourns at their graves, hoping that somewhere nearby their ghosts might take notice.
It works:
Reese has fun catching up with his mom. He hasn't really seen her since she passed. The two of them grab a bite and chat. Of course, Tintin dropped in too...
He was too busy on the computer to acknowledge his grandson Jensen, but I wanted to snap them together anyway:
Reese wants to see Jensen age up well. Pretty much all of his wishes are teaching Jensen the three trainings.
He spends a day off from work schooling the toddler:
Good thing too! Since it will be the twins' birthday soon.
@RacheltheGoddess That used to happen to me ALL the time when I played S3 through Origin. I noticed it would happen usually when I downloaded something new to the launcher. Just check to make sure your EP's are "checked" before hitting the Play button each time.
Oh did you say they are GONE from your launcher? Hmm, then I'm not sure how to help you there. So sorry.
Edit: @sassygray5 May have given you the solution in their post above^^^ in case you missed it. Good luck!
Once again life has gotten busy to where it's kept me away from the forums and I have a lot of catching up to do. Split into 2 posts in hopes that people will see my tags better that way. 👍
@ataraxialife Wow your thread name is hard to remember and type out.
Reese sure had his work cut out for him wooing Rachelle huh?
Jensen and Jared. Nice names.
Tintin, I can't help laughing at the name.
Wow...he divorced his wife over her being mean to his little sister? That's kinda...harsh. I mean, I get it, I wouldn't have liked that either, but they could've talked about that, but divorce? Especially when there's 2 babies involved? Wow.
Nice drama! I like to add a lot of drama in my stories too.
----
Reese is a good dad.
Congrats to Holly and Connor.
I guess I was wrong in what I said...perhaps Reese could sense how awful Rachelle was and her being mean to his sister pushed him off the edge to where he was done.
@Silverofdreams30 What's not to like about the Medieval cribs? They aren't glitched are they? I haven't been able to test them yet...
Tanya is a pretty sim.
Benjamin as quite the strong jaw!
So THIS shot right here is PERFECTION!
@DeafSimmer Your Pony sims are so pretty. Did you get the chance to see my Luna in my Ponyville story yet? I love her!
It's been fun PMing lately.
----
Ooh, drama in the household!
"Whatever. Talk to the hand!"
LOL! I haven't heard that expression in a while!
----
"Simtube" I love it!
@king_of_simcity7 I STILL need to read your story thread! Forgive me for being slow with that... I hope there hasn't been too much crazy drama since I last read it.
@PalmArrow OMGosh I LOVE this picture SO much! Aww!
I'd love to see the changes you made to the house. I bet it will fix the routing issues.
Yup, page 4000 will be here before we know it! Although...the thread has been moving at a snail pace lately and that's made me feel so sad.
I love to see everyone's updates here I always come to read some of them I just don't comment, because there's too many people to mention and I sometimes I can't keep up with it ahaha
^Oh I UNDERSTAND! Believe me!
But the thread has slowed down quite a bit for the past couple of weeks. It's......freaky almost.
Love your siggy picture, by the way.
@Mikezumi Yeah salmon would be hard to toss anyway since it's so flaky!
I gotta admit I NEVER give my sims balls!
LOL! How the heck did Alberto end up with shoes like that?
Nice intercept there Zumi.
Thank you for the sweet comments on my Praaven post.
Yeeeah I think I will stick with dark colors on that gown.
----
Yeah the doorbell face reaction is quite humorous.
"Gotta do homework before you get a grilled cheese sandwich."
I'd be ticked if some kid I watched broke my computer. Hope Zumi's chat with her about her "problems" will help her behave better.
Congrats to Keanu on his new belt! Following in his dad's footsteps.
----
Gotta love when there's ripples on sims when they aren't even in the water.
That's a cool...guitar...Shannon has. It must be from Supernatural huh? I don't have that EP...
It must be difficult with both Sam and Jules suffering from Postpartum Depression.
^It really is. Hubby and I kinda went through the same thing after I had our daughter. Thank the Lord for modern medicine!
Yes, some sliders need to be used sparingly. I'm gonna ditch those ones as they aren't quite what I expected.
----
Shannon sure was desperate to pinch some cheeks eh? Poor Jeanna!
Darn! It seems like Zumi isn't getting through to Sunshine. (her name should be more like Chaos! )
Yeah! You stand in that corner young lady!
^Right!? I even searched online to see if anyone found the ability to mod it in. No such luck. I figured.
----
LOL to the morning romp in the Armoire!
Like I said before, near synchronized eating with those kiddos.
I do like that toilet paper roll holder. I should buy it from the Store.
This picture here is priceless.
What!? I've never seen a bottle washed ashore on any of the beaches in my game!
Ah. I can see now why you wish you could fit 3 toddlers in the playpen (or in this case, wading pools. ) They totally could've fit 4 toddlers in there if the Devs thought to do it.
Dwight teaching Erin to walk. Adorable pics!
That's one HOT hot tub kiss!
----
Dwight has to help someone find a potential girlfriend? That's hilarious!
I guess that guy has a point. And yes I admire your restraint. That skirt with that shirt!
Hey there Jules!
She pushes the basement button when they get in. Dwight is slightly disappointed as he was expecting elevator woohoo.
^Poor Dwight!
Aww she got him a massage table and even gives him a massage! She's so sweet and knows how to take care of her man.
^Dwight: Nope, nothing to see here.
Lorelei: Yup. Nothing.
@GraceyManor Oh yay! A Praaven update.
Ohhhh boy, we got Lancelot entering the picture again. But I'm with bekkasan, What about Guinevere? This is intriguing!
You know who was a pretty yummy looking Lancelot?
"First Knight" girlfriend! Have you seen it??
----
Sabrina, don't encourage Lancelot's lust for you with your mad bow skills!
@jonny522 Nice to see you posting again.
Your stories really hit home for me because my husband was active duty Army for 3 years and spent half of that in Iraq. I met many lovely wives of the soldiers and they had many stories to tell. One deployment was enough for me...so I bow down to those wives that endure many more.
Oh my gosh that goodbye wave! I dunno how you captured that, but it sure tugged at my heartstrings!
Great writing!
@sassygrey5 Ok, Dominik at YA...hott stuff!
That should answer your question, as that was my first thought before even reading your question.
You must have missed my tag (it happens on this dang thread. ) but I love Hannah's hat! Is it CC? If so where did you get it?
@rubyskywalker It's ok, people seem to miss my tags a lot on this thread. Thanks.
Hope you get that new computer someday.
Your Disney challenge sounds awesome so far!
I have great news my friends! I FINISHED replacing all the broken picture links in my Ponyville story!!! What I thought would take WEEKS only took 5 DAYS and I am so so thankful for the idea that came to me on how to simplify the process. 🙏
@Mikezumi , so children arrived at Mikezumi's house even though it was her day off AND Sunshine kept breaking things? I have a feeling I would not like the daycare career! It's a good thing your simself likes children!
@ataraxialife , that's one glum-looking vampire in the close-up!
@bekkasan , the triplets look so adorable sitting in their high chairs next to each other! I love the sunset picture you placed above the massage table. It's ideal for relaxation!
Those I tried was just so tiny, I like the bigger cribs better.
Thank you I quite like that screenshot myself.
i saw the mention of Marco polo, I have nver played that.
I saw it in one of my story games but never tried it ineral life hehe.

Going to start working on some more of the story now
Things are starting to get tense!
Everyone in the group seemed to have been enjoying themselves so Simon went to the bar to buy himself a drink. He kept looking over to the group and felt annoyed that Nick was still talking to Humara. What was he playing at? Had this been going on all night?
Simon returned to the group with a drink for himself and one for Humara. She thanked him but was still talking to Nick seemingly laughing at all of his jokes. It seemed that everyone else in the group had no problem talking to Simon but he felt that Humara was just not interested in him.

In the meantime, Reese was busy staying in shape for work. Took a picture of that and the carpool:
Reese is an in shape Sim! Meaning he'll probably definitely live longer than Tintin did.
Speaking of Tintin...and Zelda:
Reese has the sudden urge to see his parents again, so he mourns at their graves, hoping that somewhere nearby their ghosts might take notice.
It works:
Reese has fun catching up with his mom. He hasn't really seen her since she passed. The two of them grab a bite and chat. Of course, Tintin dropped in too...
He was too busy on the computer to acknowledge his grandson Jensen, but I wanted to snap them together anyway:
Reese wants to see Jensen age up well. Pretty much all of his wishes are teaching Jensen the three trainings.
He spends a day off from work schooling the toddler:
Good thing too! Since it will be the twins' birthday soon.
I hope to get to that tomorrow.
Until then- happy simming!
Oh did you say they are GONE from your launcher? Hmm, then I'm not sure how to help you there. So sorry.
Edit: @sassygray5 May have given you the solution in their post above^^^ in case you missed it. Good luck!
Once again life has gotten busy to where it's kept me away from the forums and I have a lot of catching up to do. Split into 2 posts in hopes that people will see my tags better that way. 👍
@ataraxialife Wow your thread name is hard to remember and type out.
Reese sure had his work cut out for him wooing Rachelle huh?
Jensen and Jared. Nice names.
Tintin, I can't help laughing at the name.
Wow...he divorced his wife over her being mean to his little sister? That's kinda...harsh. I mean, I get it, I wouldn't have liked that either, but they could've talked about that, but divorce? Especially when there's 2 babies involved? Wow.
Nice drama! I like to add a lot of drama in my stories too.
----
Reese is a good dad.
Congrats to Holly and Connor.
I guess I was wrong in what I said...perhaps Reese could sense how awful Rachelle was and her being mean to his sister pushed him off the edge to where he was done.
@Silverofdreams30 What's not to like about the Medieval cribs? They aren't glitched are they? I haven't been able to test them yet...
Tanya is a pretty sim.
Benjamin as quite the strong jaw!
So THIS shot right here is PERFECTION!
@DeafSimmer Your Pony sims are so pretty. Did you get the chance to see my Luna in my Ponyville story yet? I love her!
It's been fun PMing lately.
----
Ooh, drama in the household! LOL! I haven't heard that expression in a while!
----
"Simtube" I love it!
@king_of_simcity7 I STILL need to read your story thread! Forgive me for being slow with that... I hope there hasn't been too much crazy drama since I last read it.
@PalmArrow OMGosh I LOVE this picture SO much! Aww!
I'd love to see the changes you made to the house. I bet it will fix the routing issues.
Yup, page 4000 will be here before we know it! Although...the thread has been moving at a snail pace lately and that's made me feel so sad.
@Sigzy05 Thanks for the reply. ^Oh I UNDERSTAND! Believe me!
But the thread has slowed down quite a bit for the past couple of weeks. It's......freaky almost.
Love your siggy picture, by the way.
More comments in my next post.....
I gotta admit I NEVER give my sims balls!
LOL! How the heck did Alberto end up with shoes like that?
Nice intercept there Zumi.
Thank you for the sweet comments on my Praaven post.
Yeeeah I think I will stick with dark colors on that gown.
----
Yeah the doorbell face reaction is quite humorous.
"Gotta do homework before you get a grilled cheese sandwich."
I'd be ticked if some kid I watched broke my computer. Hope Zumi's chat with her about her "problems" will help her behave better.
Congrats to Keanu on his new belt! Following in his dad's footsteps.
----
Gotta love when there's ripples on sims when they aren't even in the water.
That's a cool...guitar...Shannon has. It must be from Supernatural huh? I don't have that EP... ^It really is. Hubby and I kinda went through the same thing after I had our daughter. Thank the Lord for modern medicine!
Yes, some sliders need to be used sparingly. I'm gonna ditch those ones as they aren't quite what I expected.
----
Shannon sure was desperate to pinch some cheeks eh? Poor Jeanna!
Darn! It seems like Zumi isn't getting through to Sunshine. (her name should be more like Chaos! )
Yeah! You stand in that corner young lady!
@bekkasan ^Right!? I even searched online to see if anyone found the ability to mod it in. No such luck. I figured.
----
LOL to the morning romp in the Armoire!
Like I said before, near synchronized eating with those kiddos.
I do like that toilet paper roll holder. I should buy it from the Store.
This picture here is priceless.
What!? I've never seen a bottle washed ashore on any of the beaches in my game!
Ah. I can see now why you wish you could fit 3 toddlers in the playpen (or in this case, wading pools. ) They totally could've fit 4 toddlers in there if the Devs thought to do it.
Dwight teaching Erin to walk. Adorable pics!
That's one HOT hot tub kiss!
----
Dwight has to help someone find a potential girlfriend? That's hilarious!
I guess that guy has a point. And yes I admire your restraint. That skirt with that shirt!
Hey there Jules! ^Poor Dwight!
Aww she got him a massage table and even gives him a massage! She's so sweet and knows how to take care of her man.
^Dwight: Nope, nothing to see here.
Lorelei: Yup. Nothing.
@GraceyManor Oh yay! A Praaven update.
Ohhhh boy, we got Lancelot entering the picture again. But I'm with bekkasan, What about Guinevere? This is intriguing!
You know who was a pretty yummy looking Lancelot?
"First Knight" girlfriend! Have you seen it??
Sabrina, don't encourage Lancelot's lust for you with your mad bow skills!
@jonny522 Nice to see you posting again.
Your stories really hit home for me because my husband was active duty Army for 3 years and spent half of that in Iraq. I met many lovely wives of the soldiers and they had many stories to tell. One deployment was enough for me...so I bow down to those wives that endure many more.
Oh my gosh that goodbye wave! I dunno how you captured that, but it sure tugged at my heartstrings!
Great writing!
@sassygrey5 Ok, Dominik at YA...hott stuff!
That should answer your question, as that was my first thought before even reading your question.
You must have missed my tag (it happens on this dang thread. ) but I love Hannah's hat! Is it CC? If so where did you get it?
@rubyskywalker It's ok, people seem to miss my tags a lot on this thread. Thanks.
Hope you get that new computer someday.
Your Disney challenge sounds awesome so far!
I have great news my friends! I FINISHED replacing all the broken picture links in my Ponyville story!!! What I thought would take WEEKS only took 5 DAYS and I am so so thankful for the idea that came to me on how to simplify the process. 🙏
Head on over to my blog and check it out if you want.

Happy Simming everyone!
@ataraxialife , that's one glum-looking vampire in the close-up!
@bekkasan , the triplets look so adorable sitting in their high chairs next to each other! I love the sunset picture you placed above the massage table. It's ideal for relaxation!
@DeafSimmer , both Stella and Nebula are lovely!
@king_of_simcity7 , I'm curious to see how that weekend turns out...
@Silverofdreams30 , your screenshots of Tanya with Snow White are so warmly lit and beautiful!
@emorrill
Those I tried was just so tiny, I like the bigger cribs better.
Thank you I quite like that screenshot myself.

I saw it in one of my story games but never tried it ineral life hehe.
@PalmArrow
Thank you, the lightning mod I use

@Mikezumi
