Chattering Monkeys

I discovered a new...um, thing, if you will. I'm just bad ^_^; But yea, I'll get back to the asylum thing. I realized when messing with my new cheat, Tiffany, Jynx's 'granddaughter' hadn't been born...so I went to take care of that.

Um...other notes. Because it would really just be inconvenient for Tifa to leave like she did in House of Daisies (which i suppose was the point but the nannies in this game suck. And of course, you cant leave the baby alone and everyone seems to go to work at the same time), I just have her having various affairs while Steven's away and plan to have her run off once Tiffany is a child. But yea...another note....Lakyle finally is practicing the whole swinger thing...yep. I'd uh, post pics, but then we'd probably be banned so look to my pixcastle account for those Rolling Eyes

Now...g-rated pics!

K, since my last diary didn't work on Forumco...

Dante came on (on his own free will which I have to say has improved with expansions) and had dinner with Shien and Sharon who is with child...

And my first granddaughter, Gabrielle! (Adriana was supposed to have a girl but her Sim was being pretty uncooperative with that) FYI, when I was like, 11, I wanted to name my kid Gabrielle so that's where that comes from ^_^

I have to say, Shien looks pretty crazy here...and I can't be sure because I haven't played his house in a while but I think that hair is supposed to be based off of L's hair from Death Note O_O Or, at least one of the many hairs in my collection is.

Doctor Valentine!

My newest grandbaby, just chillin' ^^

Yea, Tifa's leaving home...Jon just waves. Somehow I don't think the original story was quite like this with the computer...and Tidus actually being there...or them actually knowing she left...oh well ^_^;

And! She moves in to my simulated apartment (has two other families: the Shiels, a married rockstar couple ((and both of whom Lakyle had...affairs with)) and Carter, the guy that molested Tiffany in House of Daisies)) She looks skanky...and she's dancing because she just drank that beer in front of her.

And its already little Marcus' birthday!

^^

Him as a toddler....can you say...Emo? And....he has a white tuxedo.

Here's the modified him sleeping. He's a cute lil' wascal, yes he is ^^

And ah, the twins reunited...

They played catch ^^;

Tifa and Steven sleeping...random pic but I was so moved by the blondeness.

I had Tifa call Jon to chat and this popped up...this is a University symbol indicating the honors of getting on the Dean's List. Now, Tifa didn't go to college so they must be talking about Vinny.
"I know, I can't believe he got honor roll either!"

Mm, Tifa pregnant...she had such a voracious appetite that she got FAT once and I was like, this is blasphemous, and used a cheat to get her in shape^^; But that's another story

And here she is (I'm so happy ToT I didn't have to reset to get the right gender!). But gah, she should have gotten the eyes Marcus got and Marcus should have gotten these eyes. Sheesh.

These are horrible quality images. When I saw this pic, I thought Tif was bleeding but she's holding a tray of popsicles...o.O

Steven, off to work, in that horrid, horrid brown suit with a green tie x.x Come now, EA, we need to work on your fashion skills.

Tifa playing with the baby...eh. She has to give it some attention...I dont want the social worker to take her ; ;

More pics of Marcus! ...Quite graceful.

With the clothes the game picked for Marcus, you'd think it knows he'll be gay.

Raihn teaching him to walk ^^ His very first steps.

Vinny off to take his final exam ^_^

I seriously think Vincent's professor wants to sleep with him @_@ She stops by daily...I wouldn't want to see any of my professors daily.

Aww, so adorable! Its kind of depressing that Marcus will never really have this...

Daddy and son ^_^

Lol, that honor roll shows up a lot Razz

That happens to my game too.

Where do you get your hair?

And where's your pixcastle account...? Embarassed

I know, and its so weird when it ends up in like, everyone's memory o.O "Raihn got honor roll in Soph year!" Uh huh...cool.

Lol, that's a...very broad answer. Marcus' hair comes from Peggy Sims which is mostly a paysite but I cheat with the 'paysitesmustbedestroyed.org'. But Peggy Sims, Raonjena, Coris.byus.net (which I think is down...great hair. I miss it), Vinny's hair, which I'm provoked to use for like...everybody, is this artist on Mod the Sims 2 named H.lin. She's also on the Sims resource...and uh, XMSims and Rose Sims and I think that's about all Rolling Eyes

I'll send you the username and password by PM here. I share it with Jynxy too.

Good tips! Those are nice hairstyles Very Happy

Where'd you get that counter and "ground" (not sure what that was)??

Dark · Joined: 19 Apr 2007 Posts: 261

A lot of stuff I got from paysitesmustbedestroyed.org. The adult sites are Pandora Sims (which has stuff but it's kind of lame that she took the exact animations from free stuff) but its worth looking. But I got the 'animations' (its actually not an individual counter) from 'xxxsims' all the way at the bottom ( also has the whips and chains) Rolling Eyes

...Yeah, that's about all. Really fun.

Sweet.

Okay I'll stop hogging your thread to find out how to make sim >cough<

Laughing

Maybe I should share some of my sim stories? Now that I think about it, none of them are that good. I don't work on any one house very well; I tend to create new families, obsess over them for awhile, then make a new one. (^_^; )

Its cool, I wait until I accumulate a variety of pictures of all the families before I post and so far I've only been playing my son's house ^_^;

But yea, that'd be sweet XD I know how I play but it'd cool to see other's sims. I know Lysa said she had a baby...lol. I think that's true for a lot of people who play this game though. Its way hard to go from house to house and play each of them equally.

I'll prolly have an update once I send the rest of our kids to college >.< Though, according to House of Daisies, Vicious is supposed to go wander around Rougii...hmm...*ponders*

I got Bon Voyage! Its sweet ^^ People were complaining about bugs and stuff but those are the same people who have millions of downloads (I'm not there yet) and don't update their hacks beforehand. I'm pleased with it...you have three places: a Japanese place (or Asian), an island like Hawaii or...exotic (I havent been yet), and some other place ^_^; I went to Takemizu first, of course ^_^ We'll highlight near the end of my family section.

Well, Shien invited us to dinner...I have to say, Enya is a really pretty Sim o.o I thought she'd be really weird but...I'm also really impressed with Tifa too...maybe I'll have a modeling thing. Hmm.

Us at dinner, having pesto and noodles...love that at the vegan place!

Holding my grandbaby... lol, I thought about it and its weird...I'm such a grandma with that shirt XD

Aww...

Lol, I don't think Adrian's genes reached Gabby...

Oh no he did'n. Checking out our daughter-in-law, ho?

Not happening. I own you, bitch.

And after that we played chess.

OMG...the game automatically selected Tucker colors for their pajamas. The horror x.X

Here's my grandbaby, grown up...mm, mush.

Shien teaching her to walk ^^

In the snow ^_^

Love my babies ^_^ Lol, Gabrielle walked across the room and my mom was like, omg, look at the baby.

Shien reading to Gabby ^_^

Sharon trying to teach Gabby to talk...she's really rebellious already x.x

Something interesting...this is Tsumura's, the wolf from our manga, Ishi Alliance, daughter. She's...mean ^^; She doesnt even know Shien but she kicked over his trashcan.

My grandbabies birthday...

Hmm...moving too fast. Time to move to a new house.

Mine! I made Adrian's mommy...

Marquessa Tiavius

Arian, Adrian's daddy, was my guinea pig for vacations since Adrian wasn't capable of taking a vacation from work yet...so he asked Marquessa to go. Heading to the airport.

OMG, green tea! (Ocha)

Hot spring! (Onsen)

Marquessa is having chirashi...I don't know what that is ^^; It has shrimp...or prawn. Arian is having steamed rice.

Close up.

Marquessa grooming a zen garden...

And Arian...meditating? o.O Uh...sure.

My game started to whir, paused for a moment and I thought, darn, it's freezing...but then, in a puff of smoke...

A NINJA!

He teaches Marquessa how to teleport using the puff of smoke.

He asked before he taught her, which is better, know yourself or your enemy? I said self...and he taught her. But I took a tour into the bamboo forest...you dont actually go on these tours but a box pops up with choices. A clan of ninja's attacked our group or emerged...the choice was to fight or hide. I, of course, said fight...and we lost ^^;

The helicopter to the before mentioned tour.

I tried a new more upper class hotel next...it has a sauna and massage table O_O

Sauna

Massage.

I got tired (it was 2 am) so I ended the vacation (though I only had three days anyway) They took a picture...

I thought Arian would do that little wave the Sims do when I chose this pose...Lol, yea.

My thoughts so far on this expansion?

Arian and I give it a thumbs up d(^_^)b

Now Jynxy's family!

Well, Marcus woke up, tantrumy o.o Its weird, this bed I downloaded makes it so they can get out themselves but he freaked out.

Vinny wakes up at four in the morning, just for his baby ^^

There, there, you're free now.

And Vinny...painting clowns. Creeeeppppyyy....

o.O Evil

Raihn on the phone with Lysa....yes, mother, I do eat chocolate sundaes regularly.

Llama time! Just think, Jynx, soon enough Rams will be running through out homes x.x

Vincent building a snowman and Marcus eating the snow.

So cute...

Tantrum 2...

....

Vincent to the rescue again ^_^;

Oh yea, I love this one!

^_^

Uh...I had Vinny call his daddy...I don't know why they're talking about Sharon though @_@

Look at the duckys!

GASP! SIEGFRIED!

He's talking to the snowman..."So yea, what do you think of those nuclear weapons?"

"Want an omelet?"

"Or...soccer?" It doesn't say anything, its a snowman.

It's a crisp winter so I light a fire...

Uh oh.

So very oblivious.

Raihn to the rescue!

Poor Marcus...fire was one of his fears and it put him in the red. So Raihn hugging him made him feel better...

Tifa napping...

Then leaving...I changed my mind so now Connor takes care of Tiffy, just like HoD

Poor Steven....I couldnt get him to move from this spot for an hour. Though it was a screw up in the game, it was sad.

Tiffany doesnt really like this chair ^^;

Random stuff...

This werewolf showed up at Shien's house...his eyes glow O_O

Tessdonna...

Its unclear what happens to Donna's son in HoD...this actually gives me something to work with (he's proposing, btw)

"Man, I can't believe I got honor roll..."

Lol...Honor roll...

I don't have Pets, but that werewolf looks cool!

And no fair! "Siegfried" didn't speak in my game! He just waddles around, and I have my sims pet him. Then he leaves. Lol. So cute, though!!

Why is your snow red? (@_@) One point of caution for you: if you fool around with the time speed while its trying to transition to some sort of weather, it crashes the computer! At least for me. I've had that happen numerous times. I don't know why it does this. Probably too much of an overload for the processor and video card to do at the same time, and XP automatically reboots when there is a "serious error."

this makes me want to play the sims...

Don't ever get pets. Its seriously in my list of biggest mistakes I've ever made. I just don't know how they could take such an interesting subject and make it so horrible...but I guess I can have some werewolves in Rougii when I make it >.>

Yea, there has to be a snowman for him to talk ^_^ I tried to pet him but he waddled away before i got a chance ^^;

I dunno! When it gets to the point when I can use it to do stuff, it turns red @_@ I think I have to download a patch...man, everything crashes my game. Lol. I haven't noticed though.

You should ^_^ It is actually kind of story inspiring too, y'know? And there's all sorts of stuff to take out the undesirable parts.

I actually had the urge to try to make a train in the sims and use that as a house so I can come up with ideas for my story

Dark · Joined: 19 Apr 2007 Posts: 261

You could probably even build a train shaped house (or download one because it takes some effort) I did download a train but it was blue and yellow and huge @_@

Update in a few.

Ugh, I wrote this out before but the site randomly deleted the post! But anywho, I decided that I've explored the Asian part, now all that was left was the beach and lake. So, I thought the beach would be sweet so I took the two blonds, Tali and Lysa.

You can finally swim in natural water! Tali swimming ^^

Lysa swimming...

Tali is about to truly sunbathe! He's rubbing down but I'm not sure they can actually tan or anything...

That pile of sand is slowly becoming Lysa's masterpiece sandcastle...

And that's about the extent it reaches ^^; I think she has a tower...I wonder if it has something to do with the amount of creativity points.

She then digs for treasure and finds some colored glass and clam earrings o.O

Lysa and Tali wanted to learn how to hula dance. Okay, so it was like going out and finding the ninja, the dancer would just show up...

Hula dancer?

Dammit, fire dancer.

Well, not one to deny how sweet fire is regardless, I had Tali pay for a lesson on how to fire dance...it took 5 in-game hours (5 minutes)...that's a really long time x.x

While Lysa waits for her husband to learn the fine arts of fire dancing, she has luau ribs...

Then either teriyaki mahi-mahi or pineapple surprise ^^;

Still awaiting her husband, she plays in the hammock ^^

Pretty much exhausting all there is to the beach, Tali sits on the beach and watches the waves...

UGH, this goes on my list of the most annoying things to happen in the sims. They went on a glass bottom boat tour and they had the normal option box (I've only gotten two out of six of these things correct for something good) Someone dropped their camera and they tried to pick it up...and they got sand fleas!? WHAT? When they came back, they were scratching for 8 minutes! (8 hours in the sims) Scratching even canceled out all other actions I assigned. Grr...

Well, another thing they could do...dig for treasure. Yarr, Tali be dug up a neko doll, yarr. (Seriously, he dug up one of those waving cats with the gold coin necklace)

Without much else to do, Lysa turns to the bathtub once again to relive our days as pirates...ah, good fictional times.

Out of anything to do, I had them cuddle...probably one of the highlights of the trip.

Or maybe this is the real highlight. At least for Tali anyway XD

On the last day, I had them go to the ruins to try and find the hula dancer...no go. They promised monkeys too but no, no monkeys either. Jeez! So I had them pose for a picture...at first it was Tali but I had Lysa join him and it came out like this. Aww, so cute...

Well, they left the vacation, without learning how to hula dance. Sigh.

So all that's left is the lake...who would enjoy the great outdoors? Why, our Forest Sage, of course...or just because I havent been to her house in ages.

Ah, the Adam girls...Artemis, the EMO drummer of the kid's band, and her preppy sister.

Oh yea...and here's Hoshiko, looking very devil-like, at it again. She ran off with their newspaper!! I might have to kill her o.O Funny though, that she's targeting me and Laura...O_O (Tsumura is my char, Kuroshina is hers...)

Smokey! Only you can prevent forest fires ^_^

Um, eww...yes, that's Karin with her mother's picture in her thoughts surrounded by hearts...that's country. But Laura's glaring at her because they dont have a good relationship ^^;

I'm not much of a catfish fan...but catfish.

The flapjacks actually look really yummy...lol, flapjacks.

So I see what there is to do at a lake retreat...slap dancing? Lumberjacks...?

.........ax throwing?

What kind of back country whiteness have I entered?

That honor roll...
