Give your Diva the Avant Garde trait, and watch the poses she takes when looking at a piece of art. Throw in Snob, and you'll have the perfect high end art gallery owner. Ooops, sorry, no businesses in TS3 yet. But you get the idea.

Well, I finally figured out what was causing my game to bug out like a termite mound. Replaced the hard drive today. Having to reinstall everything AGAIN but should be able to work this time.

I wish she would do weird things in my game! I always get her as the repair(wo)man, and all she does is her job! I think the weirdest thing she ever did was yell at the toilet, and that's basically become normal, too

Eskie: I will
When I get uni, I'm going to make Cinderella. I'll give her evil step-mother and step-sisters 'evil, snob, diva, avant-garde' and then one more so they're not all clones, and they'll be so mean to poor Cindy. Then she'll meet her prince at prom, and have to spend her uni years walking around barefoot because he stole her shoes, and then she'll come home, I'll get someone to toadify the prince (just 'cus) and then they'll live happily ever after.
Until I get bored, ruin their lives and never play with them again. That's how most of my EP testers end.
Except my pets one. I have no idea what happened to that, but I tried to play it the other week, and overwatch nearly died because there were so many glitchy sims and abandoned cars. I deleted it, it was too laggy.

You could add mean spirited. That, along with evil, snob, diva, and avant garde, should guarantee a perfectly loathsome sim to torture Cindy. Get an extra trait through the social groups, and add on slob, just to create a sim that no one, except maybe for Gus Hart, could possibly like.

The only thing avant garde seems to do is make my sim want to critique every painting, plant, and decorative object in the building. Anytime i leave him for a second and he finishes doing what he was doing hes wandering off to critique everything. It adds a few more social interactions i think but the one guy he used them on thought he was boring lol.

And a couple of new updates:

First, a rare building one: I freely admit, I am a terrible builder in this game. I know absolutely nothing about normal interior design, couldn't put together a decent-looking building if my life depended on it (Stately Scum Manor is a modified version of an existing elaborate mansion lot) and am generally much more of a character designer than anything else.

But every once in a while, you need to redecorate a room as part of the characterisation of whoever lives in it. And that's where this came in:




Inside, a pair of security cameras constantly survey the entire room, and the walls are covered from floor to ceiling with crudely-scrawled Simlish crazy person ramblings. Little of interest here, really, it's very repetitive stuff. Typical excerpts read as follows:

KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN
KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN
KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN KILL MAIM BURN


ALL PEACE AND NO DEATH MAKES SPROG A DULL BOY

LIBERA TE TUTEMET EX INFERIS


I love wall writings like that. I had a bunch from Garden of Shadows (I think) and would decorate the walls of all my Goth teens like that. I think there was a lot of Emilie Autumn on those. Good stuff, like "you stabbed me in the heart, but I kept coming back for more" kind of writings. I have to start using them again.



Quote:
In substantially less creepy news, however, this just happened:


"Well, why do you think we left Moonlight Falls in the first place? Main downside of being born into a family of alchemists, I guess. Homes aren't forever. Homes go up in smoke. And most of them smell like sulphur and ass after about a month."......


Wow. Best. Full moon. Ever.


Please tell me that's just a typo you didn't catch. Granted, alchemy can stink up a house, but I've never had that happen (then again, I've never had a Scumthorpe in my game either).

Does Sprog have commitment issues? If not, Leeza Barcon wants to add him to her daisy chain.
I'm convinced the only reason she's not doing her older brother, is her older brother.

Holy fuck it feels like ages since I last posted anything longer than a few sentences. Been meaning to post some shit for a while and never got round to it, so might as well while I'm here. I have a small pictures backlog actually, but I won't be posting them all right now, otherwise you guys will have to learn how to safely climb the Great Wall of Text.

So shortly after discovering that male aliens actually do look different from lady aliens, Athena decided to throw a slumber party. She invited several people over, including Carrie and Lolita (I had a go at making them myself rather than harassing Mingham for once :P) and potential future teenage love interests for the twins.


There was absolutely no reason for this, Lolita just decided out of nowhere FUCK YOU PEANUT.


As meanwhile Oedipus grows up to the sounds of fighting.


Ohhhkay...time to install that no fucky hair/eye colours mod.


Much better!


Lolita for Christ's sakes no get out of that puddle THAT IS NOT WATER.

Athena and Rachael became super best friends inexplicably when I threw the slumber party. No idea why or how, so decided to make them enemies again, and Athena, having the coward trait, wet herself.

Best sleeping spot.

Marion also fell pregnant again. With - thankfully - their last child now. So let's have a look at what EA thought an expecting mother should wear.



...Well shit.


I tried to take a family picture, bar Nicolas and Oedipus because none of them could be arsed to pick them up and include them. It was actually a pain in the ass to get them all to perform an animation at the same time, so sod it.


What is that. Seriously. What the fuck is that growing out of my floor? O_o


...Oh. Uh, welcome to the family, Aliana...!

Also, Lennard has been focusing less on hunting unless it's a full moon, and more on inventing. A useful skill to have when you're a neglectful parent and can't be fucked to clean your baby. Instead just chuck down some floor hygienators and be done with it. Magic the poop away!


WHOOMPH


Please add a pyrophobic trait EA. I want to give it to every single one of these fucking unlucky bastards.


"Oh Goddamn it my ass is on fire. I just can't be bothered with this shit any more."


OH GOD MY ASS FUCKING HURTS NOW

Lennard why did you put on your suit first for fuck's sake. You're only going across the hall!


MAID GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY, MY BUTTOCK HAIR IS BURNING


FUCKING MOVE


Oh no no, that's fine. After you. I'm only going to die over here, no big deal.

He made it into the shower eventually thankfully and was able to extinguish himself with no further consequences than being unable to sit down for a month, and then a realisation hit him.


'That fucking maid tried to kill me.'


'Uh oh, I think he's onto me.'


'Damn right I am.'

I fear for the young lady in question that Lester "likes"... As to date Lester ideas on how to show appreciation has generally ended with screaming and blood on the walls..

Though in all seriousness there is nothing that says the young lady really has any feeling past pity and a BIG maybe of friendship. Which doesn't bode well for this ending on any kind of a happy note.......
