New story published
Hi everybody. Just want to tell you that the first part of my new story is out. It's called 'His Father's Son' and is hidden somewhere between the other stories. If you are interested, you can go directly to my mini site. Even though it says at the Story pod 'no stories', just press on the 'more stories' botton. Bye.
New story coming up
Hi everybody. After some weeks I got my inspiration back. I've just submitted the first chapter of another story which is called 'His Father's Boy'. I must say that I had a hard time to choose out of hundreds of screenshots. I hope you'll like the result.
Caw-tool
Hello. Since I've downloaded the last patch I have been busy with all the pro's and contra's of it. I had to re-install the downloads from TSR. I noticed that the launcher doesn't show them as 'installed' but as stuff that has still to be installed; but in spite of that, it shows in the game.
Although having ideas for a story, I don't have the patience right now to put myself on it. Instead I'm playing with the caw-tool. It's rather complicated; perhaps not for you but for me it certainly is. I've created a few small worlds that I've deleted because they're not worth while to see. Now I start understanding the tool a bit more and that's how a spend my time 'understanding the tool'.
I must see that I really love it and once the problems of the patch have disappeared, I enjoy the game better. Now I understand what a hell of a job the creators of EA have had while creating the beautiful worlds in the game.
I hope that I will get back my inspiration for the story I have in mind. It surely felt very downhearted when I learnt that Bessie had past away. Such a young woman... I admire her sister Mae that she is strong enough to pick the work up that Bess left behind. Yesterday I saw that she had a change in the avatar. It really is admirable.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to all of you. I start the year with good news. My husband rarely uses his laptop and yesterday he suggested me to use his' as well and I thought "well, perhaps I will re-install the Sims 2 on his one". Now and again I miss Sims 2 very much. But then, I had the idea of installing the Sims 3 and the WA. I just thought that I wouldn't mind if it went wrong. Well the install and automatic update went well. It updated untill what I have on my own laptop the version 2.0... (I don't remember the whole number) It was patched untill the version 2.3..... Then on the launcher was a message that I had to update again and it would update from 1.7... to 1.8.... I felt already that I would have to remove it from the pc but then ... oh Wonder... After the update was done, it still was version 2.3.... and working all fine. Now I've got the 'worldtool' (still have to study on the tutorial) and will be able to download worlds created by other creators. Isn't that good news? The next thing that I try is to put all the extra's and downloads from my other laptop and insert it. Even the storytelling and the simmies. Only then, I will dare to update everything on my own laptop as well.
Now isn't that good news?
About the patch..
Yesterday I reinstalled the game and the expansion pack without being connected. Now everything works fine. I hardly use the launcher anymore. Every day I make a copy of the 'saves' file.
Having reinstalled, the game recognized all of the download. They were all showing up. The only mods I've got are from Peggy's Zone and the censor blur. O yes, the homework in half an hour. It work fine for the moment. No blue lots.
Keep my fingers crossed...
Another patch problem
Hi there. Yesterday evening when I started the game, I message came up saying that it couldn't be played without installing a new patch. I had no other choise.
Well, everything is wrong now. No Riverview anymore. Not even the EA downloads. Then I re-installed the whole game and it's not playable anymore. The command are in numbers. I wonder if you have the same problems. Please, tell me.
A sequel to 'Another Point Of View'
I'm starting to write a sequel to 'Another Point Of View'. Perhaps or perhaps to chapters. It's very messy though because I've got about 700 screens to sort and to choose out of.
Most probably the sequel will be called something like "Makin' up". So keep an eye open for the story to be publised.
