Title: Deaths in Seasons
Post by: ZiggyDoodle on 2007 March 18, 02:23:40
Eliza Avio did the ultimate hula dance tonight.  Instead of an urn, she got a tombstone instead.  The last time I had Sims die, it was in EP4 and urns appeared instead of tombstones.  She died outdoors while raking leaves.  Does the location of the death (inside or outside) have any bearing on the residual marker?

Tried to move the tombstone in an inventory - couldn't take it out at the community cemetery.  When did this change?

Finally, an automatic spell check?   Maybe a good thing or the dumbing down of MATY.  Possibly both.

The location of the tombstone/urn decides what it is. Indoors, it is an urn. Outdoors, it is a tombstone. You can switch which kind it is by moving it in or out.

I never used the inventory to move tombstones/urns. I just click on it and move it to community lot of choice. It's a lot easier, as well.

Auto spell check? Don't see it. Do you mean little red lines under words? If you are using Firefox, that's a feature.

I just stocked up a cemetery I created with tombstones of sims killed in seasons, no problem moving them to the lot, the fact that they stacked in his inventory threw me off for a moment though.

Duh.  [smacks forehead]   Switched to FF a few years ago but just installed FF 2.0 yesterday and discovered this morning it was the culprit. Would go back to the previous version (FF2 is slower) but support ends next month.   >:(

Used to do that until Pets: the tombstones never showed up at the cemetery.  Fixed with the patch but the patch broke other things so I dumped it.

Morriganrane, do you have the Pets patch installed?

You can turn it off by going to your menu up top, Tools - Options - Advanced - General Tab and from there untick the box that reads "Check my spelling as I type". I kinda like it but then again I'm a really bad speller so it's helpful. Hehe

Turned it off as soon as I realized it had been added.  Bloatware, which is why I prefer the previous FF versions.
