    What happened in MY Sims 3 game? Oh nothing, just the nanny had a "hates children" trait so now my child is dying, nothing too extra.

    Back with another update

    Francesca had some celebrity duties to take care off (eating at the Corsican Bistro or whatever it's called)

    Melody decided to give the paparazzi a loud introduction after they photographed her sleeping on a bench which didn't go down well

    Fliss reached level 8 in the Nerd social group so now has the new trait of Easily Impressed

    With Winter producing lots of snow, Tia took full advantage

    Meanwhile Ethan woke up to find himself in a cemetery

    Deciding sleeping outside in the snow was no good, Tia retired to her igloo

    Melody completed her lifetime wish by mastering the charisma skill

    Emily mastered logic, while her sister reached level 8 of the Nerd social group (may have been jock, not sure) and now has the Handy trait

    Emily wasted no time and used her logic mastery to tutor Fliss in the Social Networking skill since her mother's blog is failing (not the screenshot, but you get the idea)

    Meanwhile Kyle has started down the road of mastering Mixology and they've upgraded to a professional bar

    @CursedDice Lol, nope. It’s a good thing too because you never know when a burglar may show up. She should be able to take care of it.

    If not her. then her parents or her twin, Francesca

    Not sure if you realized it or not, but when you qoute a post, it tags everyone
    in the post.If you're responding to a certain person you can use the @ with their username to tag
    just them.Otherwise everyone gets tagged and we think we all have a comment.

    Sorry it's been ages since I've done much on the forum so I've kind of forgotten how things work here

    @Turjan : Yep. I am. So is kid sister stuck in SimMeapolis or can something else be done?
    @ilikethesims30 The main content of my post was that you should check how much RAM you use before you initiate travel (with resmon for example). If you are above 3 GB, forget it.
    Other than that, I think igazor already suggested to just save, close the game to the desktop, start the game again and then immediately initiate travel after the mods intialized (prevent all attempts of the game to save at that point), then save after you arrive at the new town, close again, start again.

    @CursedDice Nice winter pics of your family :smile: .

    @GraceyManor : I used Master Controller to invite my Sim's sister to visit. She lives in a different world. When the sister came to town, I added her to the active family. Just until I got tired of her, LOL. For about a week, I've been trying to drop her off at Union Cove, her home world. But I keep running into problems.

    Maybe by adding her to your family, it somehow corrupted your save file.

    I've been playing with my grandsim Josefin's family and took a couple of pics. :smile:

    Jessica and Susanne went egg hunting in the festival park, and on the way home Jessica found a Spiny Turtle. It was -11ºC outside so she took it home, and they are keeping it as a pet. :heart:

    I have a pre-sister save. Maybe I can have my Sims visit her?

    @ilikethesims30 There is an issue with inviting sims labeled as "Tourist" into your household as they aren't complete sims. You would have to go to that world and invite to your household from there.

    Starting a new save from the beginning to start sharing here. Not too sure on what Sim I’m using but it may be Emily Jones or a different Sim. I’m going to start in SV like I always seem to do but will probably go to other towns eventually.

    EDIT: Nevermind on internet, it’s getting hooked up on Saturday so as long as there aren’t any issues I can’t control, should be posting again like I did before. Up there I said I’m doing a new save but I’ve decided to keep the Jones family going.

    I think the only way to do it is to add her to your household in your current save, have the entire family vacation there, use traveler to disable travel restrictions then move her into her own house, then turn the restrictions back on and go home wait a few days and travel back as a vacation OR have your family move to union cove with the sister in the household once you are moved in, have her move into her own house, then have your family move back to the original town.Saving each tome before and after with different save names

    It seemed the tornado had passed, but Kimberly was out like a light.
    She slowly came to, trying to take in her surroundings.

    Screenshot-35.jpg
    Kimberly: Where am I? And I don't know where this dress came from
    but...I love it....a doggie! Where'd you come from little fella? Oh well.
    You can come with me.

    Screenshot-36.jpg
    Kimberly: Uh, where am I? This doesn't look like Fairview.
    Hello? Anyone around?
    There seemed to be nobody around.Maybe they all went into hiding?

    Screenshot-37.jpg
    Out the clear blue sky, a lady appeared before Kimberly's eyes.

    Screenshot-38.jpg
    Glinda: Hello, I'm Glinda, the witch of the north.And you are?
    Kimberly: I'm Kimberly...I beg your pardon, but aren't witches mean
    and ugly.
    Glinda: Only the bad witches.I see you have the slippers..
    Kimberly: Slippers? What slippers?
    Glinda: The ruby slippers, whatever you do, do not take them off.
    Kimberly: Why?

    Screenshot-39.jpg
    Elphaba: Because I'll steal them from you.
    Kimberly: Jimmy crickets! Who is that?
    Glinda: That is, Elephaba, the wicked of the west.She's very mean
    and very powerful.You don't want to get on her bad side.
    Elephaba: Too late for that.

    Screenshot-40.jpg
    Elphaba: Give me those shoes...they're no use to a little girl like you.
    Kimberly: I'm not a little girl! And I rather like these shoes.
    Elephaba: I have very little time for annoyances.Now give them to me.
    Kimberly: No.

    Screenshot-41.jpg
    Toto decided he had to go poo and did his business on the wicked
    lady.
    Elephaba: Control that mutt or I'll turn him into a fur purse!
    Kimberly: You wouldn't.
    Elephaba: I could and I would...I shall leave for now, but you
    haven't seen the last of me...

    Screenshot-43.jpg
    Glinda: It seems you made rather bad enemies with Elephaba.
    Kimberly: What do I do now? I don't know how to go home.
    Glinda: See Oz, in the Emerald City, He's very powerful, and has
    more magic than I do.I will bless you so no harm comes to for
    some time.The rest is up to you.

    Screenshot-44.jpg
    Kimberly: got my ticket for the long way 'round
    Two bottle 'a whiskey for the way
    And I sure would like some sweet company
    And I'm leaving tomorrow, wha-do-ya say?


    Screenshot-45.jpg
    Male Voice: A tornado flew around my room before you came
    Excuse the mess it made it usually doesn't rain
    In Southern California much like Arizona

    Kimberly: Who is that?

    Screenshot-46.jpg
    Kimberly: You hear that as well? I think its coming from the corn
    field.Let's go take a look.

    Good Heavens, a Wizard of Oz story! Gotta follow that one. @GraceyManor
    @Cororon

    You are such a great poser,
    I love those photos.

    Thanks! :smiley:

    I know you are not a native english speaker, so the word "poser" in this context is funny. :lol: A "poser" is someone who pretends to be better or cooler than they really are. I did a lot of that kind of "posing" in the "Cool sim-self pics" thread: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/973985/cool-sim-self-pics

    Played on my Riverview Save

    Monday morning saw Marius harvesting some plants in the garden. Promethus and Cosima both did the chores while Canute started on a new painting as he had a wish to paint something worth two hundred and fifty simoleons. After that Canute went for a shower before going to work. Meanwhile, Marius had finished the gardening and went to paint while Cosima went to the Consignment Store and the Elixir Store; she brought home some nectar and some gems from the former and some gem dust and Potions Ingredients from the latter. Promethus spent the day painting. The three had leftover Sushi before Marius cooked some Autumn Salad and Cheese Plate for the fridge before going to bed. Meanwhile, Canute received a Promotion at work. Checking on his Work days, he found he had Wednesdays and Thursdays off. As he arrived home he received a phone call from the grocery store, asking him to deliver some Plums of excellent quality before going to bed.

    Tuesday opened with rain and the news that Nellie Spencer is due to die. Marius decided to improve on his cooking Skill while Canute finished off the painting he started on yesterday. Cosima decided to improve her painting skill while Promethus had a shower. After he finished the painting, Canute decided to make a start on his Martial Arts Skill, and he gained his first Skill Point just before his work hours started. Promethus went into town while Marius went into the garden to harvest. After he finished, he decided to plant an Unknown Seed, a Rare Seed and a Bell Pepper as the garden started to look a bit barren. Canute returned home just as Marius, Promethus and Cosima went to bed.

    Wednesday saw the four siblings have breakfast together before Marius and Cosima went into the garden as Canute did the chores. Promethus went to the Martial Arts dummy and after a while he got his first Skill Point. After Promethus got his Skill Point in MA, Marius decided he too should learn the Skill. Cosima decided to paint until the family have enough funds to finish off the house. After having dinner together the siblings went off to bed; they didn't get to sleep for long as a burglar attempted to break in; the burglar's arrival woke Promethus, Canute and Cosima; Promethus and Canute went off to fight the burglar while Cosima attempted to join in. Luckily, the Martial Arts Skill Canute learned earlier that week was enough to see the burglar off before I saved and closed the game.
    Currently aiming to get all harvestable produce in The Sims 3 (One EP left)Will complete a Legacy one dayhttps://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=katcalls2k907 (My Wishlist)

    Scarecrow: Hi there! Whoa are you?
    Kimberly: Kimberly.You can talk?
    Scarecrow: Everything in Oz can talk.
    Kimberly: Oh...well, what are doing just standing around
    shouldn't you be scaring crows?
    Scarecrow: I tried, but they just fly about picking at my straw.
    Kimberly: There must be something you could do?
    Scarecrow: May I travel with you? Where you off to?
    Kimberly: I think she said "Emerald City?" I would love some company.

    Screenshot-49.jpg
    She continued on toward the Emerald City, her feet were starting
    to blister from the shoes.
    Kimberly: Wish she would have warned me about this "magical shoes" They're
    starting to give me magical blisters.Oh look over there?

    Screenshot-50.jpg
    She approached what seemed to be a man made out of tin.He
    was just thawing out.
    Kimberly: Brrrr, its cold.
    Tin Man: You're telling me.That mean old Elphaba froze me solid.
    Been standing here for weeks, finally warmed up a bit to thaw me.
    Who might you be?
    Kimberly: I'm Kimberly, and my friend the scarecrow, and this is toto.We're
    on our way to see Oz in the emerald city.
    Tin Man: Do you need another friend? It gets kind of lonely out here.
    Kimberly: Absolutely!

    Screenshot-54.jpg
    Scarecrow: The dark forest...I hate forests.
    Kimberly: Do you suppose we'll see any wild animals?
    Tin Man: We might.
    Scarecrow: Uh, any of them eat straw?
    Tin Man: Some...but mostly lions, and tigers, and bears.
    Scarecrow: Lions?!
    Kimberly: Did you say tigers?
    Tin Man: And bears...
