So my thought process was, if I'm gonna have at least 4 kids (in the sims)(fuck you for voting that- granted I put it there and knew it could be a possibility, thus willing to do it), I'd do tropey archetypes for each sibling; i'm thinking: jock (football or cheerleader in high school), goth (punkass outcast), prep/overachiever (valedictorian in high school), and geek (programmer/gamer)
Well, first baby was born and it's a boy. I decided he'd be the jock. So I named him Jacques 💀

Are you going to leave Lord Geoffrey Mortimer unplayed until you get a royal family? If so, what are your plans for him then?
Yep, he’s just sitting in the Castle collecting taxes but once I crown a Monarch I’ll move him out somewhere, either to a Royal Apartment or his own Manor, and get him in the rotation.

Yes, I posted them a few days ago. :)
Thank you! They are perfect for my little clothing shop :)

It's lovely to see you !
*squishes*
pensblr replied to your post “I’m on my second glass of wine playing this household. Toddler twins...”
I like your playing style. Wine is an absolute must when playing households that have multiple toddlers. :D
simsing replied to your post “I’m on my second glass of wine playing this household. Toddler twins...”
You sound like my sort of player.
Hahahaha! Am out of wine now, sadly, so it’s a good thing I’m winding down this family and won’t have to see toddlers again for a bit!
These be for @nekosayuri, @immerso-sims, @penig, @eulaliasims, and @simsing...
nekosayuri replied to your post “When I change textures by building DXT in Simpe instead of changing...”
Bodyshop just compresses the files when it imports them back (and then you can usually compress them further with the Compressorizor). When you build DXT, the filesize is just not compressed anymore cause there's new information, so the only way around it is to use the compressorizor, but the final file size shouldn't be any bigger than if you had done the change in Bodyshop. That's my experience at least
Well, it certainly makes sense that Bodyshop would compress files, given that it makes files that include about a trillion images! :) So annoying. So yeah, you have to do the extra step of compressorizing when you make retextures outside of Bodyshop, but to me that’s much less annoying than having to overwrite a couple dozen images to make one recolor. :p

Goopy and Sandy's genes still going strong!
Sandy’s lips and jawline seem especially strong, which makes me happy. Goopy’s nose, too. This is pretty much why I play this sort of neighborhood, where all the playables are descended from a single person or pair, to see how long distinctive facial characteristics stay in the gene pool before getting bred out. Where I am in playing (as opposed to what I’ve posted here), the 4th born-in-game generation is being born and things are still going strong on that front. Of course at that point, more distantly-related individuals (like second cousins) can interbreed because the game no longer recognizes them as family, which helps with preserving characteristics if you’re not squeamish about a little pixel inbreeding. :)
penig replied to your photoset “So here we are at Sage’s household. I’ll warn y’all up front that sad...”
And because she's cute. But I don't want her to be sad!
I have a fondness for her and her sister. Alas, there is sadness on the horizon for her little family. :( But, you know, they’re Sims. They get over things pretty quickly.
immerso-sims replied to your photo “Heeeey, Cherry! I totally just knocked up your daughter, man. It was...”
I am laughing way too hard at this :D
You and me both. :) And it gets even better, with him. Or maybe worse, depending on how you feel about...hmmm...wayward sexual antics? Well, anyway, his little saga is certainly not over.
penig replied to your photo “Sam Weburg the ex-llama-mascot barged in as usual and hung out with...”
Damn predator! You expect this kind of behavior from cow mascots, but an ex-llama? I'm shocked.
I dunno about “predator.” As an ex-mascot, he barges into houses. (Well, OK, everyone does in this neighborhood, not just ex-mascots.) This wasn’t the first time. Pretty much each time he’s been there, Allison’s flirted up a storm with him and they had mutual crushes before the Hot Tub Incident happened. They have pretty much identical personalities, as well. He was actually going to be her first date, but when she called, he was at work, so she went out with the other guy instead. Ultimately, personality and aspiration-wise, Llama Dude is a better match for her, though, and he’s not much older than her so...Yeah.
THAT said, it turns out that Llama Dude isn’t very...hmmm...faithful? Monogamy doesn’t seem to be his thing at all. Let’s just say that it’s a good thing the STDs aren’t a thing in pixel world. ;)
simsing replied to your photo “I want my….I want my….I want my MTV.”
Hmm, nice corner fireplace. TSR? I've been thinking of getting that.
Yeah, it’s an one from T$R. Its mapping is quite terrible, though. :P I did recolors of it here that take advantage of the texture stretching. The mesh is included with the recolors, so if you want just that you wouldn’t have to go into the swamp that is T$R to get it. :) Unless you want the original recolors of it, but they’re pretty stretchy so...eh.

He's so fluffy! *_*
immerso-sims replied to your photoset “Mars’s birthday. He got meatloaf instead of a cake. ……OK, not really....”
Awww. Old doggo is old. :)
I have a strange fondness for elder dogs in the game. I mean, it’s not like they behave any differently or anything. I just love their graying faces for some reason. Of course, I have a similar fondness for old dogs in real life, so I guess it’s not surprising. :)
And yes! Fluffy! When his family’s kids were younger, they’d do the toddler cuddling and halfway disappear into his fur. It was so cute!
simsing replied to your photoset “Lady Anna with Frances Clarke, and the Baron with Erick - a boy I...”
Funny - how did you accidentally adopt?
I thought the kids would be in the adoption pool! So I was like, cool, I’ll adopt Frances (the baby) first, but then it was little Erick, Then I realised the kids were in the family bin xD
