Wow @Metior_Ice you know a lot about merfolk! Thank you for sharing! As for lore in my game I don't have much. People who want the powers for selfish reasons become merfolk with unnatural skin tones and face markings (face paint technically) like Lily. Those who have an actual connection to the islands and have good hearts…
I just learned today that the infants have poses when you have a sim take a photo of them with a camera or phone. I don't think there's anything for the Moschino tripod specifically, like the holding toddler poses. Anyway they are so cute! The sitting and crawling poses will probably need the help of some kind of stage or…
Did y'all know they added infant poses for phone pictures? I just learned that today. Here are the triplets: Enoch: Eve: Esmerelda: There are some sitting and crawling poses also but the eyes are always looking at the photographer's knees rather than the camera. I take this as a challenge to add a little platform to my…
I play with aging on for active household only, and so play every household in every rotation but not in the same order every time. I do a combination of overplanning and acting on a whim. I have a spreadsheet where I track which holidays and festivals and moon phases are coming up in which week and plot out who I'll play…
Similarly I have a sim who's been planning to open up a retail grocery but started a family first and doesn't have the time or money right now, so in his spare time he goes to the marketplace lot and sells fresh produce and baked goods from a table. The stall will be a nice upgrade especially if the kids can actually help…
@GalacticGal OMG I started reading that and was suddenly... wait, what?! After everything you've been through to get that save right. When the first generation of my save died I'd only been playing them two years but I was really sad to see them gom can't imagine how it would feel after as much time as you've spent with…
A long time ago, in a galaxy... well ok in this galaxy, I had a sim visit Batuu and bring home a townie wife. They had a daughter, and my plan was for her to grow up and build my game's first Servo in an attempt to make droids like on Batuu. Finally this past week the daughter became a teen and got her first droid. And got…
I have lots of holidays. I have four weeks in each season and three out of the four have a holiday of some sort. There are a few small ones like Parent's Day that just have a couple of traditions and no real decorations, and then all the major real world US equivalents (Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Easter, New…
In real life I prefer cats but in the sims there isn't as much to do with them. I don't have horses or goats in my game yet, and none of the others have quite as many interactions as the dogs. I miss being able to train cats and dogs for pet jobs, and being able to encouage bad behaviors back in sims 2.
I think it's closer to 8.5. I believe I started around the time Outdoor Retreat and/or Get to Work were released, so early 2015. I had skipped Sims 3 because it wasn't rotational play friendly, and then the computer I was still playing Sims 2 on died somewhere around the end of 2014. So when I got the new computer I tried…
Oh wow! Thanks! Taking pics of Ribby the skeleton doing random things was the highlight of my last few weeks in game for sure! Glad others are enjoying them. Congrats to all the others mentioned!
@DreamPrincess Happy Birthday! Depending on time zone I may be a bit late. I had several birthdays in my game today, but didn't take any pictures yet. My sim from Batuu, Valad Endivain, has three children. her daughter aged up to teen and her twin sons aged up to child. I am happy to be done with the toddler stage. The…
@LeucosiaX I did the same thing as in this reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/Sims4/comments/f2fuew/playable_skeleton_without_cheating/ I don't really understand but sometimes the skeletons from Selvadorada will either have human roommates, or one will turn into normal townie sims after your befriend them but the rest of…
@Moxovynka Thank you! That is Katrina Caliente. I aged her down to YA and her daughters down to toddlers, then she married my good vampire Charlotte. Now the girls are teens. Viktoria doesn't live at Straud Manor anymore, officially story-wise she's supposed to be hiding in Tartosa with her mother but she showed up as a…
@mightysprite I'm unsure if that would affect his role as the reaper in the long term or not. To be honest I don't know if my game is going to create a new Flower Bunny because I temporarily added her to my family or if I removed her fast enough that she went right back to her role. When I used the same cheats with Patchy…
Today I learned you can have a science baby with the Flower Bunny if you add her to the household temporarily using cheats. You only see the option when you're controlling the bunny, not the other parent.
@Metior_Ice Thanks! I don't think I've seen them as mermaids before on the forums. I wasn't sure what to do with them and this is just where I ended up. I just realized they are already in the adult stage so I am going to have to have them try for a baby pretty soon. I enjoy Alexander's new look! Much more than he does I…
Hey everyone! I haven't been around much lately but occasionally I kind of catch up and give out awesomes. I am enjoying the parts of everyone's stories that I am able to read in between times when the thread gets away from me. Since most of my updates this year have involved my evil vampire Cornelius, I thought I'd take…
Several monhs ago my evil siren Lily Feng enthralled Mele and Alika with her voice and took them to her secluded shipwreck cove to serve her. This week, Alika discovered a mysterious cave nearby. And after several hours of avoiding his chores to explore inside he found a strange type of kelp. For whatever reason, he…
That sounds about like what I want. I am using a mod to dictate which sims go to school with mine, and I am choosing a mix of my played sims of the same age, premades I'd like to work into my rotations, and random townies who can be those kids from high school you loose track of after you go away to college. I would like…
I put a retirement village on a lot close to the walking trails so the retirees can have easy access to powerwalking and fishing. It's an apartment lot I downloaded from the gallery and edited into a combination of studio apartments and common spaces with activities and a common kitchen/dining area. I haven't done anything…
I started my current save with the goal to use all of the content I owned. I play rotationally and each family is assigned to one or two packs as their primary source of career and aspiration, world to live in and hobbies. They aren't limited to content from their packs, but they are responsible for the completionist…
Have the gallery problems been fixed? My game crashed the last time I tried to use the gallery and I just want to know if it's still having problems or if it's something on my end. Also, I just got HSY on sale, and I remember hearing about mods that let you choose which students go to high school with your sim. Can anyone…
