Well speaking of updating files erroneously - what about all the data files?  When you play one hood, *every* hood file is touched.  I bet they're all read and saved back, which is probably why the game takes so long to unload after you've finished playing.

Idk. That's why I only put one Neighborhood folder in at a time. The rest just hibernate in MyDocs.

I like him. He reminds me of Herman Munster. I hope he has a cheerful, playful personality.

Finally finished reading all the pages in order to not sound like an idiot. My bugs, let me show you.

I have the same issue as Aggie with the broken gypsy. Every time I call her for matchmaking services, she brings a lamp. Since my sims all live in desperate poverty, this sucks.

I have sticky fire animations. Trees set aflame by lighting are technically extinguished by the rain but their fire animation stays for days. It was funny at first, but eventually I had to just delete the trees.

From what I hear, it also hurts like a bitch to get done, and then kinda itches because your body is constantly trying to heal and force it out. Which it will do, it only last a few months and then you have to do it again. Actually, that skin looks quite nice, body modification opinion aside.

Edit: Aparently, the corset piercings on the sides hurt more, back skin is a little tougher.

Mine didn't hurt more than my industrial. It depends on so many factors. Mostly, it depends on if the person is scared. Scared people tense up and it hurts more. Also, being young and having a healthy amount of body fat to pad the dermis is helpful.

It began itching after about six months so I removed them. They are pretty pointless unless you are a fetishist / fetish model / girlfriend of a fetishist. It's uncomfortable to lace them under clothing so the only time they ever got laced properly was for sex. Usually the boyfriend was too impatient so it didn't happen then either.

This may sound silly, but did you make sure you had a sufficiently rated power supply for the card you're using? And cooling?
32  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: PSA: nVidia ForceWare 162.18 for XP certified and released on: 2007 August 01, 21:40:16
Idk. How timely. I had totally ignored all mention of this bug since I ran an ATi system. The system I built this morning is has the GeForce 8800 though. Was it one of the affected cards?
33  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Ford Focus for Download at Official Site on: 2007 July 29, 15:29:43
It would be super awesome if they could code this to have a high mechanical failure rate, like real the real Focus.  Tongue

I come from one of those super patriotic families that has only ever owned Fords. We have pretty much the full product line parked in front of our house. If only they'd sim the F-350 so Sim Me can have her truck in game. Sim Me's boyfriend can have his Focus and be bitter that her truck is better, just like in real life.

Two of my favourites for clothing are

Stajl - http://sillychic.com/stajl - awesome designs, awesome handpainted textures

SkindeepSims - http://skindeepsims.freehostia.com/ (all of my sims use her eyeliner these days)




I'm a pretty big fan of CarnabySims.com what with the very Jesus and Mary Chain esque teen boy outfit and the adorable babydoll dresses.
35  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Question about Ponds on: 2007 June 25, 17:36:08
Am I the only one who likes the bright ponds?

Nope, I like them too. I think they have a romantic ambiance. 
36  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Share thy Bedding and Painting!!!!!!!!! Where do ya get em? on: 2007 May 11, 17:21:29
Ok Here I am beggin again. Where do you get your bedding? I would like some well crafted bedding.

Also Paintings. I am talking about the ones that you put in the new paintings folder in our The sims 2 folder. Not ones that can be bought in the game.

Also does anyone know where those picture frames for the paintable paintings are?


Windkeeper did some excellent frames for paintable paintings over at TSR. Well worth pirating. In the booty under "custom frames."

Modern bedding:
http://modthesims2.com/creator/Rocca
http://modthesims2.com/creator/flipchick74 Some of my favorites.

Shabby, old fashioned bedding:
http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/galilea/ Free maybe?  I don't know what TSR's policies are on SAs.

*edited to add bedding links.

Would this be "my" Neil Gaiman? If so, colour me flattered!

I've apparently missed something important because I didn't know Neil had been released out into the wild yet. Linksy?

Other than uploading a new skintone set a month or so back at MTS2 and Insim, KSK has been fairly inactive. She posts sporadically on insimadult but her "why do girls want girls in their game if they aren't lesbians" rant was really the last I've seen of her.
39  TS2: Burnination / Planet K 20X6 / Re: Apr "More Awful Than You" CC Treasure Hunt: Whore Clothes on: 2007 April 02, 20:58:43
Definately a boy. The creator, KSK, only makes stuff for men and only has male sims in her game.
40  TS2: Burnination / Planet K 20X6 / Re: Apr "More Awful Than You" CC Treasure Hunt: Whore Clothes on: 2007 April 02, 20:38:06
Seeing as someone has come close to my secret weapon, I'm going to have to post this before someone can beat me to it.

Candidate for best man whore courtesy of KSK.



Do I get bonus points for being from one of those OMGZ! I HATE GIRLS, DON'T CONVERT MY STUFFS creators?
41  TS2: Burnination / Planet K 20X6 / Re: Apr "More Awful Than You" CC Treasure Hunt: Whore Clothes on: 2007 April 01, 23:38:31
I could win this in a second, but it's only the first day, so I'll wait a week to pull out the big guns.
42  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Poll: How do you feel about accidental deaths in the Sims 2? on: 2007 March 29, 19:38:12
I've only ever had one death that wasn't old age. Sim Me overheated on the treadmill and burst into fire the first time I played with Seasons, before everyone started posting about the problem.
43  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Get Over It, Already! on: 2007 March 23, 20:13:57

Yeah, but, but, Bowie, ya know? I LOVE the labyrinth, though I would'a tossed the kid and lived in the Escher castle with Bowie.
*drools*

One of my mates, who was once a working girl, said she had Bowie once. There were four bodyguards in the room whilst he was bonking. (Not watching, just sitting). Weird, she said. Kinda hard to perform, I would have thought.

I've heard similar stories. Apparently he's not very self conscious.
44  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Seasons: What mods are you already begging for? on: 2007 March 07, 14:58:10
Yeah, I keep having problems with sims not being able to fall in love even with 100/100. One will fall in love, but the other won't.

Stupid sims.

That just sounds like noinstantloves though.  Undecided
45  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Wanting to Re-Generate my Townies. on: 2007 March 06, 14:53:42
Thanks heaps for your quick reply.
Do you think that SimPE Pets ed. would work for this if I have seasons... or should I wait for Seasons ed. to come out?

Again another question I thought of... NPC's is their away I can kill them off... so that they generate with the new faces?
Or is that a whole you basket of cucumbers?

That last line sounds like an insult for some reason.
46  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Seasons: What mods are you already begging for? on: 2007 March 06, 09:51:10
My sims are also overheating, and the only CC I have is MATY hacks because I can't be bothered to hunt down everyone elses stuff for every EP.
47  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Seasons: What mods are you already begging for? on: 2007 March 04, 15:15:59
The overheating in the hot tub / while working out / while doing yardwork / everything else in the damn game is really, really getting old.

Is it possible to make the heat increase more moderate? I mean, yes, people do get warmer while working out but they should be able to work out for more than a few minutes without exploding.
48  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Help Wanted: Building my own PC on: 2007 March 02, 08:38:29
Thanks Beastykins! Kiss Hehe.

I think I'll go for the MSI, if it hasn't sold out by the time I get home.

And what do you think about these power supplies.  I think the NeoPower would be a great deal, but should I worry about overheating?  Even tho it has 550W, it has one fan, whereas the SmartPower has 500W but two fans.

Also, the mobo I wanted is now out of stock. Tongue So... between these mobos which do you think is a better deal?  Are these trustworthy manufacturers?  The ABIT one was recommended by one of the guides at Toms, but it might be slightly pricey for me.

The ASUS looks good, and it says it supports Quad core, so does that mean I could potentially upgrade in the future by just buying a new processor (and I wouldn't have to buy a new mobo?)  Or does it just make sense, when upgrading, to always buy a new mobo and processor?

The EPOX is appealing because it has 2 PATA and 8 SATA slots.  But I'm not sure if I should trust 'em or not.

I'm hoping to place my purchase this weekend, if not tonight.

Ste

As far as your ASUS vs. ABIT question, I can't speak for the exact board you are looking at, I built my computer on the ABIT AN8 Fatal1ty last year and it was a really good experience. The board was well designed for heat flow and roomy (important since it was specifically for SLi >.<) and installed very easily, unlike some boards I've struggled with in the past as a result of poor design choices.

Did you even READ the thread?  Tongue

Here, I can't even get the game til Friday. I'm not gonna pirate it, because it'll reduce the pleasure I get from sending my stepfather to walmart on payday to pick it up for me and being all excited when I come home from work to a brand new can of worms. \Cheesy/

As far as I can ascertain, this is Omri-Chan's MO. (S)He posts a new thread about wanting the pre-order incentives, ignores the information presented in the thread, and continues to (rudely) demand them until someone posts a link. Was it the Family Fun Stuff ones last time or was it Glamour Life? I can't recall right now.

*Edited: It was Holiday Fun last time.

Omega drivers aren't updated anymore. Get the NGO HQ ones.
http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=Files

So far I haven't had any reason to switch away from the Omega drivers. They're solid and stable and most importantly to the current conversation, they work well with TS2. People with newer cards benefit from updated drivers, but I have a three year old Alienware mobility card that vomits all over every other drivers that I've ever tested.  Tongue
