It feels like drunk asshole or methhead seems to have a high correlation with racist moron… #ArkansasY'all

Lord almighty, that's the truth. And they're all complete peaked in high school types who either won that football game that one time or drank themselves into oblivion every weekend.

For those of you who reblogged that “say something nice about the person you reblogged this from” post from me...

@oracleoftictacs: Another horror fan whose probably afraid of the dark which makes us soulmates, hella nice, intelligent, I always think of her when I’m in line at the grocery store or Rite Aid because they always have tic tacs by the register, a fellow Harvest Moon fan which upgrades her to Flawfree status, was also one of my first ever Simblr friends/followers, would definitely devote myself to any cult she started, and I’m not usually one to join cults (let me know if you start one, I’ll bring refreshments).

@ephuyrie: An amazing writer, very patient, incredible imagination that never rests, has about 7000 different OCs and a vast, intricate, complicated universe while I have four that I don’t even write about, finds my rude ass daughter’s antics funny, good pet owner, has an awesome dad, is a great sister, former soap boss, once killed a man in Reno just to watch him die. 11/10

@wastelandsims: Has excellent taste, always likes and reblogs my stuff so I’m pretty sure we’re in love (or is it just me?), has an awesome username, and produces some of the most amazingly beautiful pictures I’ve ever seen on simblr. But really, your pictures are so pretty I don’t know how to act around them. I went through your simblr once and spent the rest of the night like

Would do it again in a heartbeat, don’t think I wouldn’t won’t.

@libraelementia: Already did libraelementia once, but didn’t do her justice, incredible writer, beautiful pictures, still has the best Bella Goth I’ve seen so far, fills my dash up with KPop gifs and then KPop sims, has apparently mastered KPop sims because they look just like the gifs, should definitely write more about Detective Cassandra, entertaining and informative text posts, flawless taste in horror video games, would eat pizza of unknown origins in Silent Hill with her any day.

It looks like it might be from either Fallout 3/NV or possibly The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion? Kind of reminds me of the supermutant meatbags?

it was made in 2005 so it’s actually older than all three of those games haha - I could try searching for Fallout conversions, see what might be around

@oracleoftictacs:

Will it conflict with GunMod's Camera mod on MTS? But GEEZ THIS IS COOL DUDE

     -- I use GunMod’s Camera Mod as well, and they definitely don’t conflict (as you can only have one CASCamera file in your Cameras folder!). Just make sure to have my version of the CASCamera file installed, and you’re good to go! ^^

@evolo84:

I just downloaded the Quetzilla mod, only to find out that it has problems now. If your mod works for my machine, I shall sing your praises highly! Thank you so much for even attempting to update this!

     -- Oh? What kind of problems? The only problem I had with it was that I couldn’t see pets... please, do tell me if my fix works for you! All feedbacks are most welcome! :D

@simgaroop​:

This is so awesome! I’ve been having issues with CAS, so if this works in my game it will be a huge lifesaver! Thank you!

    -- You’re more than welcome, pal!! Please let me know if it works for you! I only tested it in my own game, so any feedback or suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

@gphoenixsims:

Anything that fixes my game is welcome :)

     -- At your service, my friend! You will always be welcome here ^3^7

@soo-bee-well:

Finally!! Widescreen users, rejoice!

     -- YIPPEEEEE~  \ (≧▽≦) / ◦.:☆

@celebkiriedhel​:

Neat and simple fix for widescreen and CAS.

     -- I tried my best! Thanks, friend! (^ヮ^)ﾉﾞ

Happy simming~ ☆

oracleoftictacs answered to your photo “I am going to cry. I went to play my Riverblossom Hills/Bluewater...”

If you put them in the install location, yes they should regen on their own when the neighborhood folder in the docs is removed/deleted. I'm so sorry that I don't know how this particular thing happened though! :(

That’s what I thought but I always second guess myself when it comes to the technical stuff with this game.  I have no confidence in my abilities. lol  

My game was acting weird these past few weeks so I’m not totally surprised this happened.  A fresh start is always good! =)

 Getting ready to uninstall (and then reinstall,...

Just take one thing at a time, and breathe, okay? : )

I saw your name and was reminded that I have Strange Hill, too. Take me, Jesus.

The good news is, with the exception of Dogbane Hollow (which I’m working on; the Goddess Ruins should have been the hardest lot simply because I had to have that ancient, overgrown ruins look... but I have the first several chapters all plotted out), I actually have pictures taken for everything, I just have to write.

The bad news is, I have to write.

Daniel and Mary-Sue! (Er, that is if you're alright with doing two)

Daniel PleasantDaniel never really got past his high school glory days. Between his looks and his position as the star player of the school’s soccer team, he was popular and he reveled in it - dates with all of the prettiest or most popular girls in school, house parties with his friends, days out at the beach. Unfortunately, along with all the perks of his popularity, he wasn’t the most stellar Sim that ever lived. Instead, he lived up to the expectations of those around him by all but tormenting the less popular students - the artists, the “band geeks,” the “the math nerds.” They were nameless faces to him, barely worth his time except to become the victims of cruel commentary.

He went off to Sim State University with a full ride sports scholarship, where he continued the high life for most of his time there; he squeaked through with just-barely-passing grades, largely courtesy the students he paid off to write his term papers. With most of his time spent partying and chatting up the ladies, Daniel practically only went to class when he had to take an exam. His ego was soaring, built even further than it had been in high school, and he loved every second of it. Sometimes, he regrets this decisions in college and wishes he had put in a little more effort; usually, those times coincided with various injuries he sustained during his career.

As far as he knows, he met Mary-Sue not long before he graduated from college; he never managed to connect her face to a girl from high school. Regardless, the young woman aspiring toward greatness in politics captivated him, and he chased her like he’d never chased another Sim before. This was the first time he’d ever truly wanted to know a girl he’d met; he didn’t just want to woo and woohoo her. He was smitten, and he felt like he could listen to her talk for the rest of his life without ever hating the sound. Interestingly, she sparked an interest in political hot-topics for him; he would never want to go into politics himself, but he could understand where her interest and ambition came from. Moreover, he found himself supporting her positions more and more often. They married a few years after Mary-Sue graduated, and things were great at first.

But old habits died hard for Daniel. He claims that he tried to stay faithful, but Mary-Sue became increasingly focused on her career. In truth - the dark truth that he hates to admit - it’s really that his ego reared its head again the instant he felt himself losing Mary-Sue’s attention as she attempted to advance her political career. The maid was the most logical person to him, if only because she was there. He knows he’d lose everything if Mary-Sue ever found out, but that cocky, self-assured boy from Pleasantview High still lives on inside of him.

Interestingly, the best advice he’s ever gotten came from his father-in-law; Herb knows exactly the kind of man Daniel is, and he knows well the dark demons of at least considering straying. He told Daniel that, while they may be the type who would have to work five or even ten times as hard at it, being faithful to their love is always worth it in the end.

Daniel’s better at following that advice on some days than others.

Mary-Sue PleasantMary-Sue used to be the quiet, unassuming, mousy girl. Intelligent and creative, she spent the start of her high school years diving into artistic passions; along with her art classes, she was part of the art club, the school's concert orchestra, and the select string quartet, all while maintaining perfect grades. She loved pottery more than painting, though she happily partook in both.

Mary-Sue wasn't popular and, really, very few students even knew who she was at all until she'd nearly completed her sophomore year; that year, she had her first run-in with Daniel Pleasant, the popular senior star of the varsity soccer team. So disgusted by his general attitude and his insistence on calling her a "frumpy art freak," she gave him a piece of her mind. The incident led to great support from the art, music, and honors students, and a small group of students convinced her to run for student council president. With their support, she won the school elections for her final two years of high school. One of the students who helped her along the way was the mysterious and often cryptic Cassandra Goth.

Her time on the student council sparked an interest within Mary-Sue; she wanted to do more for community at large and she wanted to have a hand in all of the big decisions that would affect Pleasantview and Sim Nation. She studied law at Sim State University, hoping to springboard from the field of law into politics. Near the end of her sophomore year, she ran into Daniel Pleasant again for the first time in four years. It didn't surprise her in the least that little had changed about his lifestyle in that time and she was rather miffed that he had no idea who she was, but the time had granted him at least some maturity and Mary-Sue was intrigued. If nothing else, he was a great listener and helped her formulate a lot of positions, and there were many times during her her pre-law and law school days where he helped her study or prepare for mock trials by reading out opposing positions or old cases.

When she gave birth to the girls, Mary-Sue put her career on hold for a while, trying to give them the attention they needed, though it's debatable whether she succeeded in any measure. Once the girls were old enough to go to school, Mary-Sue dove into local politics. She dreams of becoming mayor one day, which her long-time best friend, Cassandra Goth, fully supports and endorses (which, incidentally, means she has the added support of the illustrious Goth family).

Sometimes, she regrets that her career has taken her away from her family. Other times, she isn't remotely sure what to think about it.

Interestingly, she hasn't done anything remotely artistic since high school. Her old passion sometimes flares up and she thinks about starting up pottery as a hobby again, but she simply doesn't have the time for it now. But she tells herself that will change one day. Even if that one day is only once she's old and gray.
