ratfantasy-sims replied to your photoset “Minu becomes a woman!”
Best mod! I wish it was tuned differently for teens, though. Mine always become 'marriageable' at about 13 years.
I have found that generally my teen girls don’t get their first ‘blood moon’ until they are 14 or 15. Minu was 17, but then I did start her in-game almost at the end of her teen life-stage. I will have to keep an eye out for my girls who age to teen in-game. In saying all of that though, ages 12-14 is biologically an appropriate time for girls to start mensturating, and in medieval times thy would have got married at some time around that. In-game, I don’t have any teens marry until they are at least 16, but most of my higher class girls marry between the ages of 18-24.

How are all your sims dieing? � that’s one deadly flu
Bad luck? No, I am using the ‘Realistic Disease’ mod from MATY, as well as a ‘comfort soup’ mod, to make it less effective. Plus, I think the Sun & Moon chickens (which are cloned from the game cockroaches) spread the disease (which is kind of realistic!). The combination of the above makes it easy for the flu to spread between Sims and households and difficult to cure. I have now switched out ‘Realistic Sickness’ for the ‘Disease Mod’, so I’ll see if there is much of a difference in the next round.
ratfantasy-sims replied to your photo “Gohar was abducted by aliens/faeries/something else. He did come back...”
There's a no-alien-pregnancy mod if you're interested in using that in the meantime. :)
Thank you, but I don’t think I will worry at the moment. These ‘hoods are a bit of a tester for the mega-hood I want to build, so I don’t mind terribly if they get messed up!
shamelesssheepdreamland replied to your photo “ Gohar wins!”
Grimmy is probably wondering why he even bothers turning up �
My Sims seem to have great luck when pleading with Grim... I think only two Sims have lost to him. I wonder if there is a mod to alter the odds a bit?
clstldrmr83 replies to your photo “Darwish gets home from work the following day and dies of the cold. Apparently...”
A modder at MTS has fixed this issue, but I don't know if it works along side Real Sickness or if RS is needed after all the fixes. It might be worth looking into: http://modthesims.info/d/617068/disease-mod.html
Thank you. I have actually downloaded that fix (after playing this household, actually), and I already had the Comfort Soup mod. I will be switching in their Disease Mod and getting rid of Realistic Disease as well.

joanna-squared replied to your post “Windows 7 or 8?”
I personally use Windows 8.1 on my gaming PC. I've been playing TS2 on that machine for about two years on and off, and haven't run into any major problems so far.
Thanks for your reply. My current (old) laptop runs Win8, but I did end up going with Win7 for the new (refurbished) machine. hopefully I made the right decision!
Now you have to tell us the name of the book series! :)
@lurking-lilibeth
Yeah, whatcha reading? :)
@taylors-simblr
What's the book series??
The Folk of Air by Holly Black. I have read The Cruel Prince and The Wicked King, and currently i’m looking up for The Lost Sisters. Not the best books i have read (no one is taking away Jane Austen’s throne), but damn they sucked me right in.
Thank you so much to everyone who left me birthday well-wishes. I had a nice day, received some presents, and went out for supper. All in all, a good birthday. :) Some replies below the cut...

Omg I can not *wait* for Ken and Ray to get matching shipwheel tattoos. <3! This is the best.
I don’t usually advertise Fun when I make something autonomous because there’s so much competition for that motive. To test the slide, though, I used 000A on Energy, Comfort, Hunger, Hygiene, Bladder, Social, and Fun just to make sure it was attractive. They still only do it if I first tell them to Get In by clicking the pool. Btw, I also modded the diving board, since I was looking at it a LOT trying to find the difference. Mine no longer has them breathe for so blasted long, and it stops them changing out of their swimsuit if they chicken out. I mean… don’t go home if you don’t want to dive, just jump in and swim, anyway. Ankoyume’s (MTS) In and Out spot is also a great addition to an autonomous pool lot.
Will Sims with low motives be more inclined to use the slide than taking care of their needs if it’s 000A for the other motives?
Unfortunately, it seems that no matter how high the slide is “attractive” to Sims, they won’t use this object for no reason. It seems like the autonomy is broken for this object? I don’t know what to do with this... sorry :(
Also, I found out that the “Get In” interaction when clicking on the pool is the same as “Go Here” (BHAV 0x100D Group 0x7F1F956A).

joanna-squared replied to your photo “The multi-lot park. It’s more-done but not done-done, but this is all...”
This gives me Northern California vibes and it's making me nostalgic.
I was thinking Chicago when I initially saw that terrain:
I was thinking lake/riverfront rather than oceanfront, since I figured I'd put a horizon down that would give the place an opposite "shore." But then, Chicago doesn't have mountains or much in the way of huge pine trees, does it? *laugh* So, I can see California, too, with its big cities sort of mushed in between the Pacific coast and the Sierras, and the pines do give it a more NorCal than SoCal feel.
skyburned replied to your post “vegan-kaktus replied to your photoset “Pics of the multi-lot park in...”
I try to cluster them too using the other side of a big road if I can, something that looks like a realistic separation. I've never been successful putting playable lots right next to deco lots. It looks weird.
Sometimes it works. There are some deco buildings that are in a good scale with “real” buildings. CuriousB seemed to do a good job with that. I use her base-game rabbit hole conversions a lot, interspersed amongst real buildings, and they look pretty good. But the style of them isn’t always right because they’re pretty quaint-looking. And they aren’t skyscrapers, either, which of course you need to do a decent-looking cityscape. :) But those tend to be really out-of-scale so...Yeah, a segregated cluster as a backdrop is the way to go, I think.

penig replied to your post “PSA”
Gay ski week is the greatest concept for a festival I've heard in years! Have fun!
It is hella fun! It’s been going on annually for about...10 years?... now or so. There are people who come in every year for it, and it’s the only time I see those people, so it’s fun hanging out and catching up. Busy, but fun. And skiing drag queens is always a spectacle. :) And the parties. Last night was the karaoke event, which we always do. Tonight is the big dance party, which is crazy-fun. Saturday night, the last night, is an AIDS benefit. It’s a fun, theatrical fashion show that’s like Fashion Week meets Cirque d’Soleil, and then there’s another party. I’ll be exhausted when it’s all done, but it’s awesome.

Yay! My babies are out in the world!
And causing havoc already! For some reason Gavin lost his aspiration. (It seems to happen sometimes when I turn Sims into townies.) And when that happens, ACR loses its freakin’ mind and starts to error like crazy because it can’t make the calculations it needs to make, but at least now I know what causes such a freak-out and I know how to fix it. Took me a bit to find the culprit and, yep, Gavin. :) He better behave from now on! :)
maryhilton replied to your photo “This is just a little thing that I thought I’d share that may or may...”
It looks nice-but I wish you were able to make a horizon that matches islands. I have one that has lots of water, but the the 'far islands' out look too green & not the same color as the terrains I use..sigh.
Have you seen the one that Greatcheesecakepersona made that uses the TS3 Sunlit Tides backdrop? But maybe that’s the one you mean. In all honesty, the horizons are not easy to make at all. (Though I want to take GCP’s city one out for a spin, since I think it might be linearly-mapped and if so it’ll be HELLA easier to deal with.) But generally...It’d likely be easier to make a terrain default that matches the horizon rather than the other way around.

immerso-sims replied to your photo “My Internet browser home page today! :) (Yes, I use Bing as my home...”
Definitely makes sense. I haven't been to Russia (yet), but I am planning on going there in a couple of years. I would like to come back to Vilnius again too, because that city just has a nice laid back feel to it and I quite enjoyed the artists' neighbourhood. I think they wanted to have something similar to Christiania minus the weed lol Riga is a bit more touristy, but pretty. :)
And you know how I like Christiana! :) Even without the weed I’d like Christiana. :) So, yeah, we will definitely have to check out Vilnius. :) And definitely go to Russia. St. Petersburg is one of my favorite cities in the world. <3 So much history and things to see. I could spend a week in the Hermitage all by itself...

Your Hometown is just so freaking cute <3 I love it when you post images of it
It’s a cute (but hella expensive) town. I actually live about 7 miles outside of it, but it’s fun to go into “town” and hang out and stuff. If you ever have a hankering to see it 24/7, there are a couple of webcams here. I’m sure I’m on it sometimes, since my usual hangout when I’m in town is Phoenix Bean, which is one of the places the in-town cam focuses on. :) And my ski jacket has a plumbbob patch on the right shoulders...although I doubt that’d be visible on the webcam...

I have CS2, but its been a while since I photoshopped with actions, and sometimes Gimp just seems the better tool? (still learning tons of stuff here!) but yes, anything that will help me recolor better has GOT to be good. Ty again!
I’m so used to have SFS that I never thought about an alternative... I don’t think I will mirror anything but in these case it was necessary :P
Photoshop always looked too complicated to me and even GIMP is hard to use at times (for me) - but once you find your way with it, it’s great! :)
