Is there any difference between making a sim a zombie first and then into a vamp, or making them a vamp first and a zombie afterwards? Essentially the only alien thing of him left is his genetics, and I think passing the alien skintone to the offspring... That is if he's still fertile. I thought zombies were sterile. |

The reason you can't get them back is because deleting the gravestones (w/o nounlinkondelete) results in deleting most data stored in the character files. No character file, no grave. Ergo, you can't get the graves back.

TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: The Sims2 for PSP Review for those Interested...

The Sims 2 for the PSP has some really good ideas, but it also has some serious technical issues. But even though the PSP game makes the wise decision to not try to cram in everything from the original game, it does feature a surprising amount of continuity from the previous games. For instance, one of the first characters you meet in the game had mysteriously disappeared in the PC version of The Sims 2. ARGH!*cough*Bella?*cough* Didn't anyone play-test this game? Did anyone test the PC game? |

I think it's just the fancy thumbnail in the menu. I deleted the one from Pleasantview and it still does the flyby when I go into the 'hood.

This is not a technical doo-hickey. More of a social/genetic one.  This is the entire freakin' town! (With exception of the Bennetts, Pleasants and a couple of misplaced spouses...) NoTownieRegen does work with NL, right? - I want to advance this little English village a couple of generations, even if it means having to use some of the ugly as sin morons that are townies (If DC is reading this, I'm sorry...), without risiking another BFBVFS.. What should I do? |

OK, yes, the whole kissing thing is aesthetically wrong. What about in France? Or was that the style of kissing that was in Uni to replace that stupid handshake? Though I do find it pretty freaky. The Sim-version of my sister (fortune) is friends (and nothing more) with one of the NPC podium peoples (no idea what his aspiration is - his name's Ian Bar or something like that). He's an Elder! She's, well, not! For some reason I think I might... I don't know. We're not talking about Mortimer and Dina here, that's for sure. |

Might it depend on how rich the first sim is to begin with?
Take the DeFactos, for example. They have §2,000,000+. Would someone with equal or greater wealth have to marry one of them in order for the want to be registered?
Edit: Damn, I should have actually read what Gali put. Then I wouldn't have to have asked, would I?

It really does look like you graphics card is done for. I know this is probably moot, but have you tried changing the graphical setting to the lowest they will go. I've tried it, and it works. But it just looks totally crap. (Edit: And I can live with it. Everything was on medium to begin with anyways.) I'd also try dxdiag if I were you. Run the test just to see if Direct X is working. It says everything is fine. Emphasis on "says." It might also help to change the screen resolution to 800x600
I can see what you mean, but this monitor isn't really suited for 800x600. (Edit: Really, it isn't. I tried it and it looked terrible.) |

Methinks you need a more powerful graphics card and/or an updated driver for it.
Drivers are up to date. Will irritate the elders for new graphics card in time for Christmas. Bet they'll say no. |

I'm at work and can't respond as fast I would like. But I modified my post. Up a few hidden behind your latest picture. Re-read. My graphics card is something like a GeForce 2 MX 200, which ran Uni quite well... I swear They are secretly bumping up system specs.. Check to make sure you don't have Post Processing enabled (boolprop enablePostProcessing true) and especially make sure that you do not have this cheat inserted in your userStartup.cheat config file. I don't have a UserStartup.cheat file. I think. Unless there's one hidden somewhere. And I never, ever use PostProcessing. The only thing that the guides say it's good for is movies, and I don't make any. The plan of "try a blank neighbourhood" seemed to work.  I didn't test it for very long because I'm tired right now and/or I just couldn't be bothered. |

Is that the concrete terrain?
Nope, it's grass. All my neighbourhoods are in the theme of "Little English Village" rather than concreted metropoli. |

Is it that neighborhood only or are all your neighborhoods now showing the same way?
It's not permanent - all of them do it from time to time, such as this event in Enderby:  - but it's still irritating. Quite interesingly, it only started to happen since the NL patch... |
