Otherwise, just strip out all the CC, upload a vanilla Sim and I'll give her a makeover. If THAT doesn't work, you'll have to remake your Sim in AGS BodyShop. Sorry, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

I checked them all already. They all claim to be base game...though I'm starting to wonder. I'll edit with a vanilla one soon. Also, does AGS affect BodyShop?

Yeah. I have another computer running only double deluxe, so I might see what i can do with that one. I'm not sure AGS will work for me, since I have three of the unsupported packs.

EDIT: Just to check I tried installing my sim on the computer that is double deluxe only and I got the same message(well she is a YA and I don't have Uni on that computer.) Then I tried using the Clean Installer on her and it worked! It changed her to an adult in body shop though. This led me to wonder if possibly out problem was due to my Uni being the University Life Collection Pack, featuring Teen Style Stuff. Even though none of the "stuff" was used, it may have looked at it as having used it because Teen Style and my University are kind of combined. I'll try uploading her as an adult who you can change to YA in body shop to see if that works, and if it doesn't you could try clean installer.

EDITED Again: Contains a CC and vanilla version of my sim as an adult.

Elizabeth Bailey is now installed and ready. Vanilla version only, though. Don't worry, I'll find her something nice to wear and get her ready for university. Mootilda, you are a bloody genius. Marry me. <3 EDIT: Here's your Sim at long last, beafish. What do you think?

Before we were able to actually, but now, its been changed.

oh perihelion, what did you do?! I don't understand! Its just so sad to see our community getting smaller. I remember a member, Extensa, surely others can remember her, she was great and helpful, but suddenly disappeared. She also appears to have been banned, but she did it on purpose, as she was deleting her posts. Oh the agony!

I'm sorry, I just had to take it all out.

Please, continue the discussion with reference to the original subject.

Doesn't surprise me to be honest.

I wouldn't worry about the community getting smaller. It will naturally shrink anyway and there are times when the banhammer needs to be used.

Oh. Banned. And I was just going to propose exchange of some vacation lots, some vacation hood ideas. So this isn't going anywhere, this hood?

Why aren't you surprised, maxon?
I know almost nothing about perihelion. Has he (or she?) been misbehaving himself?

Anyway, I rebuilt and redecorated - redone in a word - that huge base game house with "Wright Way" address, and made it into a hotel, a mediterranean looking one. I also have about three houses, maybe more, depending on the hood's style, that could work well as vacation homes. They're all 1x2 lots though and graced with Mootilda's real basements

Is that safe to share - shrunk and re-leveled (and what-not) lots?

But I guess it doesn't really matter if the project is abandoned. Ah, well. I'll still have me my Wright Way Hotel

The best thing about a good thing is that it inspires a better thing.

I was responding to MMAA's comment about Extensa but that's all I have to say about it.

I don't see why not - Moo's stuff is generally very well thought of.

We already have all the Sims here - all we got to do is re-make the whole terrain(s) and come up with a story--- what am I talking about here, I don't even know what the OP tried to do with our Sims in the neighborhood. Dang it.

Who can decide for herself which terrain and storyline she wants to play. Or everybody who wanted to take part can play it according to their own lights and report back. That'd be the most interesting thing from the audience POV. My impression with Extensa was that she flounced (three times under three different names). I know nothing against Perihelion, but wouldn't be here if I didn't trust the mods. Speaking from experience and with no particular reference to anyone, it is possible to be "sweet and helpful" in one place and a raving toxic lunatic in another, particularly with PM capacity. And everyone is a jerk on the internet once in awhile. So perhaps some needed life lesson will be learned and gone need not be forever, or something.

The groups would probably be a more suitable location for this, so that would be a great idea. That way, you would be able to have several threads with different discussions going on and keep track of everything there.

Let's please not get into a discussion about what people did or did not do; suffice to say that anyone who is banned must have broken the site rules, or else they would not have been banned. And, the community is not getting smaller- many people return and many new people sign up every day- and the community forums are just as busy now as five years ago, but just with some different people.
