My thought for the day: I'd rather be playing my game than helping to liquidate the store where I've been an employee for 19 years. It's much more fun. No tears or sad feelings at all while playing.
At least my pixels never have to go through this experience.

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.

I regret moving all of my game files over to UC. For some reason, Origin will not let me play my game. I'm going insane!

Sorry to hear this *hug*

And it is true that ending a company, for any reason, is much quicker and less fraught in Sims 2. They don't even get a memory of the occurrence...

Things that make you go "Arrgghh!"
So I got my photo shoot set up for my story, getting reluctant Sims into place, including the hanging of two errant ones, happily press F10 assuming Fraps is on, because it was before, kill off the two Sims, save and exit, then find there are no photos because Fraps wasn't on...

@Primavera The mod who does TS2 CAS stuff is moving house + just had a new grandbaby, so don't fret if it takes awhile.

I think the fact that BV is very Polynesian-tropical is probably the reason, but it seems like there aren't many Spanish-Caribbean tropical designs out there...

Finally getting around to editing all of these S2Store clothes. Once this is done I'm gonna save them all to a 7zip file so I won't lose them.

EDIT: got this done last night, now the next thing I have to do is recolor pretty much all of the hairs I got so far right now. I have some hairs with extra recolors I like but it gnaws at my obsession of having everything the same color or else I won't sleep at night. So wish me luck lads

Yay, finally! I've been working for sometime on a library design, but I'm a big fan of autonomy on community lots so that's what I always go for. Before now, sims went there and spent all their time playing and talking to each other. Finally, today, I got my tiny public library in Widespot working properly. The lot is owned by Lana Mann who wears the cutest librarian outfit and has an elder librarian career that I edited to only have her advance to be the Widespot librarian. I built the cutest tiniest little public library out of the tiny business lot that was originally "Flying Cupcake," then added the VC to allow only playables and townies (so it doesn't get overrun, just playables might be better), then added BO's Need Freak (tweaked to keep comfort and fun from satisfying and to use stacked books as a model), then the Read Books Autonomously mod (tweaked to add a lot more advertising). And...drumrollllllll...They show up at the library, sit down, and read books! Finally!

Can you skip Origin? This is what I do. Just change your shortcut to point to the Sims exe file. Right click your shortcut/properties/target. Mine is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSBin\Sims2EP9.exe"

I always see great skins for possible aliens but I hate townies spawn with it. Like, I want 3 different alien skins so I can't go default replacement but i just don't want townies to spawn with it.
so my game, don't you dare spawn a townie with that skin! don't you dare!

I'm so proud of me, I went through my downloads folder and cut it down- its only 2.67GB now! Not that its perfectly organised and foldered, but its mostly in the right places and I haven't done so well before! I have another 2GB of totally unsorted cc on another drive but that's a problem for another day
Time to wipe my three other dropbox accounts that now has cc that I don't care about.

I have several non-default alien skins in my game and none of them ever do that. I think a way to test would be to go into CAS and randomly roll up several sims. If a skin or clothing item is townie-enabled, one or more of your randomly generated sims will appear wearing or using it. If you go through a dozen or more random sims and never see it, the skin or clothing probably isn't townie-enabled.

Somebody will probably know of a better way to check content using SimPE, but I'm not that familiar with the program yet.

I've decided to change my username to Bulbizarre, because I'm not a Bulbasaur. Just have to wait for the admins to get around to it.

I always have the FPS counter on because of this. It's a nice visual notification that the program is running.

I think it's pretty common, I've taken pics without Fraps being on and I know others have too.

And that is why I added Fraps to list of programs auto-started by windows when PC starts up. Hasn't happened since.

I don't really play that family that much anymore since it's a finished legacy, but if I experience that problem again and the hood checker doesn't help, I'll try that, thanks!
