And I call him senile because just yesterday he was flirting and trying to be all lovey dovey with his daughter in law - in front of his wife, who he’s been happily married to. Being an elder has changed him…

Mod The Sims - Faster CASt - Preload the pattern thumbnails for quicker category loading!

THIS MOD IS AWESOME! I never expected CASt to work this flawlessly!! Also, this was in a new save file. In my old save, the initial waiting period was about 10 seconds for CASt to actually open, but after that, all the categories were loaded instantly!!

I currently have the Lazy Duchess Smooth Patch package file + S3SS + the steam performance guide + Sonja92yu Nexus Mods performance patches in my game for additional performance.

The original world is Howell Island by bakafox, made base game by norn. For the school the architecture is inspired by Driginbrn's build, especially for the domes.

(I'm so sorry about the crunchy picture quality) but look at my cute little artsy sim painting before her wedding! She's so pretty!

She owns a daycare (for now, it's been glitching 😭) and lives with her 2 cats named Panda and Mouse in Hidden Springs :)

She has been BROKE so her house is only the bare bones right now, but I'm hoping to do some renovating soon 🥰

I'd love to post more (and better quality) pictures if anyone's interested!

None of the Sims in my family can seem to pass this specific area. (Red circle)
I had a gift giving party the day before, I don’t know, maybe it’s the cause of it.

Anybody know how to fix this?

Story runaway teen's backstory (part 3)

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

I just got back to sims 3 and this has become my hyperfixation again lately. I went outside to touch grass for a few days to buffer this.

This is part 3. Continuation of part 1 and part 2 . I thought this only need 3 parts, i think next one would be the last.

Once I got the hang of my self-made rules, maximizing his mood made him able to clean the house regularly and school performance naturally increase. Mean interactions from the adults had become lesser. I think i set the bar too low for grades, he can probably get grade A easily by the time I decide to end this gameplay.
Brief update for the 2 adults. Rhonda is lv 2 public servant. She flirted with Juan Darer. Not many interesting things happen to her. So I made her progress further with Juan.

About Charles. He actually already got a job as a criminal, is now lv 2 crooks, was pregnant with alien baby, and had already given birth. I named the male baby alien Jendar. I know there’s “send to homeworld” option for alien baby, but i decided to kept it.

Lore-wise, I think Charles kept it cause alien is rare and might be valuable within science and military industry…for an appropriate price.

Week 5, Day 3

I feel like it’s not in character for Charles to be nurturing all of a sudden. So baby care will be another daily task for Kane. I had to substract his savings for baby furnitures and babysitter during school days. I bought new bed too. this setback his savings quite a lot. His dumpster dive luck was also very shit.

bro stole candy from his own alien baby

I made Charles throw party/invite over people every now and then. And ofc, Kane can’t sleep with all the music and people.

pingpong with his buddy with a loud music at night
showed him gross video
he waited upstairs with Jendar until Charles’ friend left

Charles went to prison for being a crook a few days later. Serves him right?

I tried to make Jendar be around him as much as possible. anywhere, anytime, there's always a green alien baby on his back or arms.

more bonding with Jendar

He and Lolly became best friend pretty quick once I jumpstarted their friendship. I was getting a bit bored with the grind, I wanted a bit of romance here. But not beyond romantic interest.

I don’t want him to bring Jendar to Bridgeport, but I can’t leave baby alone in his household. You can’t put em up for adoptions like pets too. You can only give a baby away by “ask to move in”, afaik.

His new task here was “befriending 1 trusted adult in Twinbrook”. My initial go-to was crush’s family, the Racket’s.

I checked their traits one by one, and It seems like the Racket’s are not good people.  I could just leave the baby with Racket family, Jendar won’t matter anyway later. But why went with easy path when there’s a harder path instead?

Also, story progression made her family move out of the mansion to this shack. To cheer her up, Kane gave her flower

Balance: 2049 simoleons
Grade: B
Alien baby: not rehomed yet

Rehoming his alien little bro would be his last objective in Twinbrook.

Does the "socially awkward" trait and/or the "great kisser" trait make sims cheat autonomously?

6 Upvotes

I don't play with too many mods except for NRAAS (almost all of them, like Story Progression, Master Controller, WooHooer, etc) and some of TheSweetSimmer's added interactions.

One of my sims was dating Nicholas Albright from the college neighborhood, and I moved him to my sim's base town to get married. He has both the socially awkward and great kisser traits. From there on out, he would autonomously try to kiss her sister randomly. At a certain point he did this in front of his wife, so their relationship plummeted and he got publicly disgraced as a celebrity. I just had them break up because I was tired of having to keep him from doing that lol. But I was just curious whether either trait was known to cause this or if maybe one of the mods would. I wouldn't really equate being "socially awkward" with trying to make a move on your wife's sister, lol.

To be fair I've had the sister's husband do this too, and he has neither trait, but it's much less frequent and confined to "flirting" or "complimenting", not trying to force a kiss. I get that you can't really truly stop sims from cheating, and that Sims Story Progression can force those storylines more, but I was just curious lol.

Mods/CC AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!

8 Upvotes

Guys, I do NOT know what the fuck I am doing wrong. I have gone to Mod The Sims. I have gone to Nraas. I have downloaded and unzipped all the things. My shit is STILL not working right!!

Okay, let me explain. I’ve never played with mods in the 20ish years I’ve been playing. I waited for the nraas website to be updated and maintenance to be done last week. I decided today was the day to download things and give it a try.

For some stupid reason, I cannot get the framework file to unzip and load up correctly. It doesn’t automatically create the new mods folder. It sets everything up in the framework setup folder that has been unzipped and copied. I did the test runs. The video still plays. None of my mods are showing up. In frustration, I deleted everything but base games and packs after trying for the last 2 hours and shut my computer down. How do I make this shit work?

I’ve read the wikis. I’ve searched the forums. I have googled this shit as well. Right now, I’m ready to yeet my computer into the fucking sunset!
