For those of you that don't follow me on tumblr, I made a post recently about how bored I am of all of my sims. No pretense, no long rambling explanation, just "I'm sick of these things."

I think, I'm going to give up the ghost of legacies. Instead of forcing myself to play them every so often...I'm just going to let them go for awhile. I still love my Lykeli's a whole lot, but this grind of legacy play is just boring the shit out of me, to be blunt.

I've created a few new sims. I think I'm going to focus on playing my sims for awhile. I'm not going to force them to have families or fall in love or anything that comes with legacy gamplay. Heck, I might even turn aging off. This is all preliminary because my life is about to get a little more complex. I've applied to a four year university, and I plan on applying to another university next semester. With all of this in mind, I'm also considering moving into a dorm and even considering moving to another state entirely.

The point here is, not that you were, but don't hold me to any updates or pictures or anything anytime soon. Because I am feeling overwhelmed and just don't want to do much of anything these days.

if anyone else has a colour lovers account, I joined a few days ago. I think i'll mostly just be making palettes.

 Do you believe you're missing out?

Like everything good is happening somewhere else?

I'm so excited, I'm nearly done with the complete rebuild of my game!

Yesterday I extracted all of the sims and dressed them in base game and defaults, then I got the neighborhood going. I found all hack conflicts. Everyone is on par with the ages that they were in their original 'hoods. The only thing is that all sims that were pregnant (and believe me, you'd be surprised...there were quite a few!) are obviously not pregnant anymore. Oh well.

Everything is fresh and clean, all that's left now is to rebuild all of the houses. Which is going to take longest, I think, because I'm not very good at architecture and decorating...so I'll end up putting it off and/or taking whole days on a single house. I only have to immediately build 12 houses for all of the playables, but that feels like a hundred to me. Oh well, I'm almost ready to play! :D

I'm having a bit of technical difficulties. I've already sorted everything out, so I don't need help! But recently I tried opening Bodyshop and it said something about being corrupted and/or missing data and being unable to open. I've done an uninstall. My highest EP now, is Pets, so I'm hoping to see if my game'll run faster because of this - but unfortunately, when I uninstalled, I told it to delete my game data...which is the sims folder in your documents. I...lost my downloads. So now I have to go through and regain as much as possible (I would just pull a back up, but it's been months since I've updated the backup..sigh)

Luckily, I haven't lost any of the neighborhoods, but considering the three EP's that have disappeared all of a sudden (Seasons, Free Time and Apartment Life,) my game warns me each time I load it that things will be done to the neighborhoods to revert them to a compatible save, but because my game has been borked ever since I attempted to make my own megahood, the message never stops coming up.

Based on the nature of the upcoming week, I won't have time to focus on sims, so I won't be playing for awhile yet. I have a two week break after this before I'm dunked right back into classes for summer. I also think I'll have to move all the residents of Volta and Hieromy to a completely new neighborhood.

TL;DR - I'll probably just be creating for a bit because getting my game up and running at full efficiency will take too long.

So about playing spares, I'm only going to play spares and post about them until their children reach adulthood. Only immediate spares (meaning, in this round, Logan) will get posted. If I played ALL of the spares, it would take me years and years to finish this legacy.

I am going to continue playing all households in the neighborhood, because I like keeping everyone on point with one another - but I just thought I should make it clear that after that last update, I won't be posting about Eleanor's family anymore. Carina will get posted until either she kicks the bucket or Taylor hits adulthood.

Playing isn't what takes forever, it's getting the pictures together to actually create an update.

I'm looking for the m2f version of this mesh. I'm pretty sure I've seen it before, which makes me pretty confident that it exists but I cannot find it anywhere! Any help?

In light of Rosie's death, there is a spot open in the X round robin. I don't know about posting about this so soon, but I need to or I'll forget.

I've refrained from commenting on anything relating to Rosie because I'm no good with emotions, I barely knew her, and there is - of course - a bit of skepticism. Not about her death per se...but, well, I'm not going to get into this. But yes, I do need someone to fill that spot.

Sorry if this seems tactless. I am without tact.

I was able to renew my pro account earlier than expected due to being filthy rich (lol not really). Pictures are back!

Well it looks like I'm out of bandwidth at photobucket. I can't wait to renew my pro account. I don't normally have to deal with this!

This always happens! I say I'm gonna take a break and then I get really into the game!

Some of you asked me about it :]

Well, I'm just posting to let you guys know that I am still alive and playing, it's just been hard putting together updates for anything. Everyone's in that boring lull between teenagers and adulthood and it's difficult to get pictures. Once my third generations get going on life, things should pick up. Maybe. I'm really into the game these days, but lacking the time to play really. I only get to watch TV because I can do it while studying :p

But anyway...I did make a few new hair retextures, and I made the prizes for next months sim challenge. (I'll post them publicly at a later date, but it's a little incentive to join I guess ;p) Hopefully I'll get to taking previews at some point. Things have just been a little hectic right now!

P.S. I have a tattoo :3

So this is a sim named Olivia. She isn't mine, but that's a problem, because I don't know who she belongs to. Does anyone recognize this facial sculpt? She doesn't look like the original download and I don't know much aside from her name.

I cannot wait to fix my external drive. I am dying.
prosthetics: (Default)


I really wish I had a friend to unpack sims for me :/

My sims2pack clean installer doesn't work because it's installed on my external drive, and because of that, if I try to install it on the C drive, my computer tells me that it's already installed. And the regular installer has just never worked for me anyway.

There are so many sims that I want ;-;
(if anyone would be willing to help, perhaps I could make you something? a lipblend, some eyeshadow, a hair retexture?)

Simblr Saturday is in full swing at my tumblr. Right now it's just reblogs, but I have some original pictures coming up.

I deleted my actual simblr because I was neglecting my personal blog, and I was getting really sick of the constant drama. So this is just a little feature of my personal blog so that I could have a simming outlet that doesn't require anything from me.

Tergeo hates college, and so do I.

About my BACC, mostly. I want to share it with you guys, but I think what I'm going to do is just post an entire weeks worth of each household's pictures as opposed to doing little family updates, because then it feels like a legacy thing and I'm trying to make this fun. Doing 4 legacy houses in addition to my other legacy houses does not sound like fun.

Of course, there'll probably be less pictures, but I'm okay with that, because with so many pictures that I need to worry about taking, it'd be nice to play a little and on the speed that I prefer (speed 3. Always).

But in any case, everything is still in speculatory stages, though I'm pretty sure about this. I've also been adjusting the rules of it over time to suit my playing style, though I'm still following [livejournal.com profile] nepheris' basic rules. In other news, I have run out of time to play and make any sort of gift for my santee because the next few weeks are going to be super packed with finals and other dumb school stuff.

Ah, if I could just play video games for a living.

I'm still playing Dragon Age like a fiend. I often stay up until 2 or so in the morning playing it, but this is becoming damaging. So I'm attempting to play more sims because more sims = more sleep, and I desperately need some. I've spent the weekend getting rid of some things in my downloads folder (namely genetics. If I could replace the eyes of all existing sims in simPE, I would, so that I could get rid of the second set of eyes in my game. Ugh.) So some of you might disappointed to see that Jay is no longer a kitty sim. I will package her with her kitty skin if she wins heir though, so kitty sim will live on if she is wanted.

But anyway, I'm just checking in with you guys. I also got my santee assignment, and even though I spent all of Sunday planning out my gifts, I'm now hit with no motivation and also thinking that I won't make anything good. God, if I make it through this secret santa, I won't do it again. My mind is just rank with indecision, and with all of the other stuff on my plate I don't have time to question my skills! Rawr.

I nearly made a new neighborhood and moved all of the families this weekend, but luckily, I saw past my crazy and decided against it. Another new neighborhood! I just got this one sort of populated!

I will probably post this message from now until the end of time: if there are any sims of mine that you would like for me to upload, that I haven't already put up, let me know and I will see what I can do.

P.S. this reminds me of my recent attempt to rescue some of my super-old sims that didn't work out. I'm afraid they're all lost :'[

Okay, so, taking a cue from Alexei, I'm reducing the number of hair recolours that I have to make. In my game, I only use volatile, pyrotechnic, depth charge and dynamite. So I really only [Poll #1793712]
