  • Hi all! I haven't touched the game in months and so have been away, playing other games :x I did play last night and thought I'd post and see if anyone remembers my game, lol. Still playing Opal, Jack, and their four tots in the custom world Saaqartoq. When I left off, oldest son Yves aged up to a child. Looks a bit…
  • I'm able to do this by planning a second career outfit for the sim (AFTER the job has been set) using a dresser. Then having my sim choose to change into the secondary career outfit with a dresser, they will automatically put it on instead of the default one when they go to work next. I don't bother changing or deleting…
  • @Stdlr9 Ugh, yes! I try to mouse over the food before they eat just for this reason but I'm not always looking! :s Not a lot of new events in my game, just chugging along training toddlers and such. The youngest had her birthday, too. :smile: "Now, if I could just win the lotto my life would be perfect..." Twins Anastasia…
  • @Gernadia I think I only had the kleptomania trait once in a sim I was playing, IIRC it was pretty funny at times. Great update. @lanlyn It's so cool to see what you're doing with Opal (and weird for me to type bc my sim has the same name, lol). Very curious to see how the story will go. And yeah, I wanted my twins to have…
  • I had some crazy and confusing things happen in my game last night... "So you're enjoying being a father, right? Well, I have some amazing news for you!" Still going strong, with baby number 4 on the way. Nursery is up for twins Laine & Anastasia "Brb hon, going to have another kid." "Ok, see you soon." "WAIT, WHAT!" Just…
  • @plushtrap_107 Metallica is exactly what the name reminded me of :wink:. The cat in your story makes such funny faces, heehee @thuggishsplicer Thanks :smile: Half or more of my games aren't family style, usually just a single Sim having adventures. Once in a while I do the big family thing, though I didn't intend to have…
  • @plushtrap_107 Aww what a beauty! Love the name, too. :smile: The grumpy sim I think was just mad that people kept getting in her way. But she seemed so over-the-top angry, lol.
  • My rule is simple, I'm going to play the daughter because I prefer to play female sims. If there are more than one, it'll be the more interesting daughter. :wink:
  • After 6 sim days, time for baby Yves to age up. The family held a small birthday party for him. Opal isn't feeling well, again... More below the fold ;)
  • @lanlyn I love seeing the thought bubbles of animals. The horse thinking of a broken heart breaks my own heart a little, lol. :p @mirta000 I think Lillian looks cool. I can see the resemblance to Fran Drescher (sp) too. :smile: The insane husband sounds hilarious! And to answer your question, I am playing the custom world…
  • Small update on my game. :smile: Now that some kids are aging up to teen, I get to style them again! Back at home:... "So anyway, we are going to need a LOT of stuff for the baby. I'm thinking a second story to the house and a minivan or SUV." Jack: (Please, SimGods, let me get that raise soon...) Little Yves arrived the…
  • @Sharee I HATE the heckling emote! That was messed up. @Simfan923 I love the snow too. :smile: @TadOlson You're right, I've had the curfew mod for so long I forgot it was even a thing. Lol. @PalmArrow I like your playstyle. I am the same, if I feel my sim really wants to do something I hadn't planned on, I go with it. More…
  • The only time I've experienced this problem was due to a file generated after installing a custom Sim. See if you have the file "downloadedsims.index" in My Documents / EA / The Sims 3 / SavedSims. If it's there, delete or move it to desktop (you don't need this file). I hope you get your issue resolved in any case; good…
  • Date night at the bowling alley / arcade: Wedding day. <3 Honeymoon!
  • @lanlyn Thank you. :smile: And omg that time machine face is creepy!! @coco I can't remember the last time a cop actually arrested a burglar. If a household sim doesn't have the brave trait, I just call it a loss, lol. Nice camping pics! @wickedjr89 Have fun with TS2! @JoAnne65 Thanks. :smile: This is only the second…
  • @Karritz Ah, I didn't know about that perk. I believe the last time I had fish they ended up dead, lol. I'll try going digital next time. Small update on Opal & Jack... Working on skills to advance their careers. Jack looking stressed watching the gardening channel. :p This boat is a dance club lot - it's pretty cool! Opal…
  • @Karritz That dragonfish pic was really cool! :o I don't usually have fish tanks in my games. @Sharee "The hotdog fairy" lmao @Sorak4 Your game looks like a lot of fun. :smile: @PalmArrow Great update, your pics make me want to play this town next! @plushtrap_107 Lol at your naughty ragdoll! I have an orange & cream fluffy…
  • Like @ChelleJo said, I've experienced the same glitch with bad CC being active on a baby. I would take the baby into CAS and try switching hair / eyebrows (is this a category for babies? I'm not sure, lol) / clothing around to see if it's gone, and try to identify the bad file for removal. Good luck!
  • @king_of_simcity7 I am soo glad they added mermaids, I am a huge fan of mermaid stuff hehe. You should make one sometime. :smile: Here is my update on my Greenland (easier to type than Saaqartoq) game. Opal and Jack's relationship is flourishing, and they are working hard & saving up for some modifications on the house.…
  • @king_of_simcity7 Thanks! Opal was originally a mermaid I created for Isla Paradiso, so I wanted her to be very colorful. @Rukola_Schaaf Beautiful screens, I adore EA's work on Egypt. Very photogenic world! @JoAnne65 The world I'm playing is Saaqartoq by Nilxis. I HIGHLY recommend it! Link @NZsimm3r LOL, I love your…
  • I had some major events in my Greenland game last night! Very happy with how my session ended. :p As usual, Opal started the day with wandering the town to look for things of interest to photograph: Next day: Next day: Nexy day: Next day:
  • @Rukola_Schaaf Love the family picnic photo. :smile: And that house is beautiful after the snow, so peaceful looking. @ilikethesims30 She is lovely, looks very old Hollywood to me. @PalmArrow I've never played Lucky Palms, but I have seen a lot of screens of people playing it here. I have to try it sometime, it does seem…
  • I love how active this thread still is! I don't usually comment but it's really fun for me to see other's games and Sims. :) I have more snaps of my Greenland game if anyone's curious. Next day's adventure: Visiting the park areas at one edge of town: Next day: Ok, enough clogging the thread. I took more pics than I…
  • I just started a new game (after not playing for a year or so) in the beautiful custom world Saaqartoq by Nilxis. For those who aren't familiar with it, it's a remote fishing village in icy Greenland. I decided my motivation for this game would be moving my favorite sim from my last game in Isla Paradiso to this town.…
  • @HappySimmer3 Cool, thank you for verifying. :smile:
  • I would actually be fine with assigning the states myself, but I thought having it all "off" in options would revert everyone to human... this doesn't happen? Geez, that's all I really need then, lol. Thank you.
  • @LaBlue0314 Wow, that sounds like a captivating story! Very cool.
  • @SilentWolf101 Awesome, of course! Simmers are the best. I haven't played Sims in a while, but just popped over to check out others' games for fun. Now that you reminded me of this thread, lemme post a few random screens. :) This is from the last game I was playing, my real cats Simified. Sorry it's dark, I just never saw…
  • I can tell you that all my loading times in TS3 were vastly improved after I bought an SSD (loading of the game itself, loading stuff in Buy Mode, and loading stuff in CAS) and installed windows and the game onto that instead of my hard drive. It takes time to do all that of course but for me it was totally worth it. Good…
  • Hmm, I haven't had much problem. On residential lots, there just tends to be other stuff sims would rather do than swim. I have seen this occur in my resorts, though. I will see the little "Drowning!" thought bubble on the sims' heads, but they get out before they actually die. And to reference the pic a few posts up -…
