Got work tomorrow morning but I finish at 2 and you just know I'm going home to enjoy sims 2 yay

So I'm trying the fix from @spockthewok and holy moly I think it's working?? I could cry happy tears after all the pain I've had over the years with this game and soup.

Go on, the bit everyone wants to see: Here's the before and after!!

Also read the thesis and oh my god, amazing. Not going to say I understood all of it but it was genuinely fascinating! I feel I know a lot more about this game now (and windows lmao) and the reason for soup makes so much sense. I'm buzzing.

#sims 2 #ts2 #pink soup #pink flashing #purple soup?#idk what even is it called at this point?

Woah I've been AWOL for like a few months because of life stuff and what do you mean someone did a thesis on pink soup? Do you know how buzzing I am at that alone???

#sims 2 #pink soup #or SHOULD I SAY PURPLE SOUP

I have NO idea what is going on and I am STUMPED

So I suddenly had Sims 2 crashing on hood load, was like okay must be my neighbourhood, i'll try a fresh one...

Same crash.

Okay, I'll remove the ENTIRE documents folder for my game and retry it...

Same crash.

Okay, fine, I'll reinstall and use vanilla in case my files got screwed up...

Same crash.

Okay? Fresh files for both ends?

Same Crash.

Fuck this I'm reinstalling linux...

It did NOTHING. My game is unplayable in any form right now, vanilla or not and I am floored because I don't know why and it's frustrating

Edit: Tried it on windows and same thing. What the ACTUAL FUCK

So I've managed to get in game, which says to me that the original install of linux was borked and the "vanilla" files I thought I copied back over were broke? How cringe and embarrassing. Time for more troubleshooting

Update: No idea what I did but I copied back only the base and SP9 folder into my fresh install and it still works? It did start after a crash during save so I wonder if some files got corrupted somewhere? Either way thank god!!!

#sims 2 #yay #fixed it

Really odd? I've been wanting to use this veil for a wedding, and I genuinely thought the in-game thumbnail was like "here's some soup at last" but no other soup showed up which was sus to me. I ended up downloading some more, and now I've checked in body shop, they all show up fine but this one is like... pink???? I'm about to go to bed but I wanted to post this because I've never seen pink in body shop and I can't quite imagine it's soup in the usual sense?

Okay it does this in-game. No other signs of soup? I kind of want to test this on Windows which I could do if I could be bothered to reboot

#sims 2 #huhhhhh #what is going on honestly

Trying to decide if I like these roads or not, and if so what I do with them in this part of Pleasanview (the more i guess wealthy part?)

#sims 2 #hmm

Been working on a B&B for Pleasantview Bay and made this little motel-style one with a restaurant attached. Nice sea view!

#pleasantview #sims 2 #the sims 2 #s2 #ts2 #sims 2 build

Pleasantview Bay seems about done

#sims 2 #pleasantview #i say as i definitely will find something to change

Been coming up with staircase ideas for this house and I'm pretty happy with this one

#sims 2 #sims 2 building #sims 2 house #ignore the shadows from the staircase down to the basement

Got Sims 2 on Lutris, running on bazzite. All good but then this happens a good chunk of the time I run the game through the launcher. Odd.

Will keep experimenting and report back in replies if I figure it out

Edit: Instantly figured it out, the game clearly didn't close properly because Lutris still said "Stop" instead of "Play". I launch it by double clicking and never thought to look there. Whoops

Getting there with my new Pleasantview that I've started since moving to linux :)

Has someone made half-tile versions of the vanilla counters? If so please let me know (they're a need), if not then here's another project I've decided to look into

These will be deco only, planning to have them be used with the kitchen prep OMSP

you know, with the counter omsps and this tiny oven, that kinda works haha
