More Awesome Than You!

I just started a new hood on a new pc.. I have all eps no stuff packs.  Anyhoo.. did BV or FT allow one to install all 3 universities?  I'm guessing FT since I when I first installed it I had a hood going (other pc) and didn't need to add a school since I had one.  Unless I just spaced that option out while playing BV...

BV.

I think that goes back to University -- when I first started playing, I only had the base game, Uni and NL, and in my ignorance added all 3 universities to Pleasantview. I've since cut it down to two of them, and may cut it to one one of these days.

I would concur - I think you could always have as many universities as you wanted (why you would want them is another issue).  When I had just base and uni loaded, I had one hood with Academie La Tour and a custom uni going at the same time.

You've always been able to add universities once you've created one-but the option to add all three by just clicking one option started in BV. Numenor hasn't updated the Anygamestarter for K&BI yet or I'd go check.

Ah, so that's the question.  With you now.  Need moar coffee, obviously.

In that case I can't recall where it started, but I think BV.

It was in BV :P You can add all 3 vacation hoods at once-and from that EP you could add all 3 unis :D

Baaa! Err.. thanks everyone.  That was going to bug me all day until I knew for sure.

Huh.  Shows how much attention I've been paying -- I never even noticed the option to add all 3 at once...

I think it was freetime.  At least that's when I noticed it.  Although it could have been Bon Voyage as I wasn't adding colleges then.

It was BV.

IT WAS BV!!!!

Okay?

I wonder if it was Freetime...  8)

Every time I see/say BV to myself it gets mutilated into VD.  I suppose one should be careful about that if one is vacationing and fulfilling Romance wants.  Hmm.. that would be an interesting NPC scenario.. sort of like Typhoid Mary but rather VD Betty or Bob*. What with hidden Asps and all .. sie could be any NPC you could interact with on vacation/downtown/the bus stop.  Then again, I hate the Flu and how it affects sims, so I probably wouldn't really want my sims to catch this either.



*I know that someone, Carrigan?? I think, made an STD mod but I never downloaded it.

*Emma LOLs

STD hack? Yuck.

S/he's the same one that made the rape hack. So yeah. Yuck.

The only hack I've ever had from Carrigon was her forever burn fireplaces-and they caused havoc with firemod installed. Guess which one I chose to dump? ;D

With Carrigon's pottery crafts I was able to have a working potter long before FT. I still prefer her mexican and I've-forgotten-the-name-of-it sets for some things. She's also got a really nice martial arts stereo for having a martial arts studio and a ballet one that works better than the silly bar in FT. I don't use the VD or rape ones myself but can see how they'd be useful to others for stories or whatever. She's got a lot of other hacks and items that are useful/fun and work very well.

Does it?  What does it do?  I've have both installed and have never had a single problem.  I'm agog.

Knowing me I probably had an old version of FBF installed-but once a fire burned, it burned forever, and the sims were caught in a continuous loop of panic and extinguish. It was really funny to watch, there were about 5 sims in the kitchen doing synchronised fire-fighting and 'omg-fire!' panic-dancing. :D


Thanks witch ;D

I wasn't hysterical...honestly.....

And let me guess, the negative response to that hack was so bad that S/he/it no longer bothers to update it?

BTW, when WAS the last time that that disturbing hack was updated?

About 3 or 4 weeks ago, I think.  She is still updating it but it's not on the Sims Workshop site.

I dunno because 1) I never wanted that hack.. ACR comes close enough to reality for me and 2) you have to join a yahoo group to get it.. read this thread for more info:

Personally, I loved her hacked towels.. cheap and pretty while also cleaning up the sim's hygiene and her Golden Spider which is obsolete for me once I figured out how to use testing mode.

I need to get firemod. FYI, the model train set fires are stuff of legend. I almost lost two sim kids in one.

You may want to check out my nightclub fire (http://laverwinklesims.com/index.php?topic=677.0) before you get the badass fire mod.  ;D

I remember that. I actually was fighting the train set fire and thought "Sheesh! This is great, but not nearly as great as that nightclub fire Witch had."

I thought I would be clever and put a lit XMas tree out in the yard of a sim's house, so the house didn't catch fire.  Forgot I had the firemod in, and damn near lost the whole family trying to put their yard out.  Took that hack out right after that. :)

It certainly gets the adrenalin going when a kitchen fire starts and you think, ho hum another kitchen fire - oh wait - it's the badass fire!  ;D

Gotta love the badass fire!

Who posted pictures ages ago of their sim's house burning? That was an awesome picture.

Well, the firemod actually has less casualties than the regular stupid "just stand there and scream ineffectively at it, mothing the fire if you're not close enough". The firemod eliminates mothing, so a sim will not approach any closer to the fire, and will attempt to put it out. If your fire is exploding out of control, it's probably due to something like "badass fire", which coats everything in gasoline.

Badass fire-who's mod is that? Yours, Pescado? I don't have that and have some pretty awesome blazes.

Sorry, that's what I meant -- the badass fire hack caused the lot to go up in flames, to the point where your firemod couldn't keep the sims from mothing because the flames were everywhere. I keep your firemod in the game and took the badass fire out.


Carrigan made it, I believe.  But I can't remember where she hangs out these days.  She was at simlogical for a while, but then moved again.

Cheers both-I might just try it out when I get an annoying sim-family :)

I'm planning on trying out simwardrobe's incendiary bomb. Should have the same effect, except normal kitchen fires will still be normal.
