I built a Supernatural Hangout for my sims to run and on it I put Grimmy's Door of Life and Death so every once in a while he pops out and dances for a few minutes in the club. Best placement of that door so far.

When somebody talks to you and you don't care at all .. that's just happened to Liam. Alienor the vampire didn't answer him. She was right, Liam is a pain in the booty,a very nasty warlock ! I am lmao.

Having a kid outside of wedlock means having a kid with someone that is not your spouse. If Matthew had kids with another woman other than his wife, that is the exact meaning of having a kid outside of wedlock. Also, if you had the kid with your partner (ie girlfriend/fiance) but not married to her, it would also fit the definition of having a kid outside of wedlock.

This would be the same for the female as well. If Catherine has kids which are not with her husband, that's having kids outside of wedlock. Or if Catherine has kids with her partner, but not married yet, that would also be having kids outside of wedlock. So I am not sure what you are trying to fix.

I can only surmise perhaps you are saying b/c Catherine is a female and married, people would not know her kids were outside of wedlock unless a DNA test was done. Well, I still think it is correct b/c this is a "rumor," which in real life are not always factually substantiated. And rumors often occur when the children don't look like their parents, etc...

The last part is what I meant, yeah. At least that's what I would think irl (can't exactly buy the "kids don't look like the parents" reasoning as there's many exceptions out there)

I'm panicking at how much stuff there suddenly is to learn after I took advantage of the Steam sale lol. I went from just barely getting started with the basegame to suddenly having EVERYTHING and it's definitely overwhelming!

I'm sure that's going to be a good problem to have eventually. I've been coping very well. ;-)
In the meantime, I would just focus on each expansion with a separate save and sim household and world. Play an active career with Ambitions, have 10 babies with generations, go traveling on WA, etc.

For the first time in TWO YEARS...after gaining closure on Grant Imahara's death...I peeked in on a house of roommates. My simself, Satoshi Sakamoto (a character I made in an AI program at the beginning of the COVID pandemic) and George Clooney's simself (still guilty of the celebrity sin). My simself and Satoshi had a baby and he was born with platinum blond hair. We named him Ten, a Japanese root word meaning Heaven or celestial as he's our little piece of Heaven even when he raises hell. Around that time, George moved out. Ten is currently a toddler and we took him for a walk around the neighborhood at night to get him accustomed to the daily and nightly changes. Satoshi, being a horror genre fan, had a playful way of getting Ten to enjoy eldritch terror like I did as a child: Attack with The Claw!

They're a young couple and they want Ten to be a Genius, Disciplined and Brave child.

I also looked in on my Sailor Moon world and it was still the same as I left it. Rei Hino is working on her Fire Blast and Usagi is still creeped out by Mamoru.

Man, when life gets in the way of your passions, you do need a step back to prioritize your work-life balance.

Maybe my case manager would love to hear my progress of getting back into my hobbies I abandoned during the pandemic.

Satoshi and my simself watched as Ten aged up to a Child and because we were such good parents, we chose for him to be Brave.

Zeke Rubie, Finnington's oldest resident (and former Mayor) finally headed for the last round up.



I had to go way back through my archives to find a picture of him and Ella-Mae in their prime. This one was taken when both they and the Fordyces still lived in Autumn Falls.

I was beginning to think Zeke would live forever. In fact I was getting a bit worried that some of the elders in Finnington had gone well over the thirty days I'd set for them. But, one by one, they've been popping off, and Ella-Mae won't be long in following Zeke. And that will be all of that first generation finally gone. The end of an era.

R.I.P. Zeke.

I gave some of my Sims makeovers and have been going a little too crazy with custom content since merging most of it and discovering how much that makes a difference. I have a lot of cleaning up to do though, lol.









Decided that Jacqui looks amazing without makeup and this makeover looks nice. I'll keep that in mind when she ages up into a young adult...which will take a very long time but I have a better idea of how I want her to look now.

Have to reboot everything elsewhere in a town that is fixed by ellacharmed because lucky palms is not playable at all.

I played a little in Juuban. Took forever to get past the main menu today because the game screen would be on for a split second and send me back to the desktop.

If this isn't an isolated incident now that my gaming tower is powered by Windows 11, tell me and I will locate any solutions.

I played a little in Juuban (the neighborhood in Sailor Moon) and the Inner Guardians were gathered around the portal to the future, albeit I shut it off.

Usagi was busy with the Moon Stick, practicing until she ran almost out of power...then she conjured an apple and the well of magic ran dry.

After many years, I started playing in Isla Paradiso. It's not so bad but I won't be doing a legacy there. With all the boats and piers, some odd things happen. Like the burglar that beat up my sim, runs out of the houseboat along the pier and past the cop who leisurely walks up to the house. "unfortunately, it looks like the burglar got away." You don't say.
"we'll get him next time". I highly doubt it.

You mean lock the burglar in so they can't get out? I doubt it. Although, theoretically, if we know the name, one should be able to lock those doors. Somehow I feel that would create an Error Trap entry at the least.

You'd think a moving houseboat would get out of the way of a meteor. You'd be wrong.
House boat in shambles, but sims are still alive. No thanks to the fire guy who couldn't help himself and started flirting with one of my sims instead of helping to put out the fires.

I wonder if it's just because Island Paradise Police are slow or just "slow" I had the same thing happen twice and I was in a regular house. I cloned an unsuspecting looking plant and made it a burglar alarm. So now I just place it randomly around yards everywhere.

I would think a meteor is much faster than the chug speed of a Houseboat? Just a thought and sometimes a guy has to get his priorities in order...

Well, I made a new world, a new household based on Lupin the Third and it took a while to make accurate suits as suits and ties aren't located in outfits in CAS (logically it would make sense, but suits and neckties were separates). I had a kimono\hakama outfit for men, so Goemon was easy. Fujiko...too easy (bust slider)

The first want from Lupin's gang (all four of them): obtain one cut gem. (Lupin III is the grandson of a jewel thief, it stands to reason they go after treasure, but I just generated their world and themselves, so I will take time to build a hideout and it's near Stoney Falls in Sunset Valley. It takes a while for gatherables to generate.)

EDIT: The university mascot started hitting on Goemon, Fujiko is hitting on Jigen, I merged myself with their household and did a "Heat of the Moment" kiss with Jigen, who swiftly rejected me. But then again, he did that incredibly dumb move of catching his hook in the seat of his pants while casting out and flipped backwards while fishing.

Edit: Fujiko passed out on the lawn due to lack of beds and Jigen did a "Heat of the Moment" to me. Now we BOTH have the Rejected First Kiss and Creeped Out buffs. I tried giving Jigen a Emerald cut Emerald I cut myself from an emerald I found. He rejected my gift saying he doesn't know me well enough to accept it.

(I intentionally left out Zenigata as I will build him later and place him waaaaay across town.)

Edit: Jigen and my simself finally had our first kiss but we're struggling to stay together. We even WooHooed in the hot tub skinny dipping.
