Missing: Tank's scar. Reward offered to anyone who can find it.

[strangetomato]

I'm not sure how I managed to do this, but Tank's scar is missing. I think it might have been deleted in a custom content purge of some sort. I did delete the entire glasses/accessories folder, due to an issue that I was having (and I just had a lot of useless junk in it), so maybe it was in there. When I opened up Worthington's lot, Tank no longer had the scar, and oddly, he was wearing the General's face paint again. I don't have time to worry about what that behavior might mean (besides the fact that Frances ought to stay away from Tank for today), because I need to find that scar. A search on MTS2 found nothing, and I was sure that was where it came from. Now I'm worried that I found it in some remote corner of the internet and I'll never find it again. If you can tell me where this might have come from, I would greatly appreciate it.

(Oh, and there are some bonus funny pics. Just 'cause.)

Any ideas? I know that I had a matching one that was for the chin too, which is also missing. They're very simple looking, as you can see here.




Ripp: Have you checked the garbage? Sometimes Nervous puts random things in the garbage for no reason. He's pretty fucking weird like that.

Me: No, Ripp, I hadn't thought of that. (I wonder why?) But it seems like you're going to check it out for me...




Me: Did you find anything?

Ripp: Yeah... looks like I found something really good.




Me: Ummm... Did you just EAT something from the garbage, Ripp?

Ripp: What?! Yeah. It was still good! What's wrong with that?!

Me: That's just nasty, Ripp.



See? I need help. These sims are just not helping me.

ETA: It has been located! Thanks ndainye!

Yeah, he's nice alright. I have such a problem with him hugging other sims lately. It makes me laugh. The other sims aren't always cool with it. *snicker* Ripp will hug complete strangers.

It's definitely the right one. I checked it out. I'm so happy.

*snicker* I know. I have no idea why Tank had the paint on again. It can't be a good sign for his mental health, though.

Oh, good to hear that you recovered Strangetown! And too funny that Ripp was doing that. He can be little obsessive when it comes to Ophelia, though, so I'm not surprised. Though I have yet to see him autonomously flirt with her, which is a little odd, since Tank did it, and Ripp has much higher chemistry with her (must be because of Johnny).

Those sound like very Ripp appropriate turn ons, especially in my story (when I get the new turn ons in Free Time, I am seriously considering giving him the "good cook" one, since he's so all about that).

Yay, Tank's got his scar back so he doesn't have to be embarrassed anymore! :)

Ripp's the kind of sim that I'd just leave on free will all the time because he's just so entertaining to watch!
I literally had to pull him away from Ophelia. And no matter how many times I told him to stop it he would go back to bugging her again! He missed work because of it.
Hehe yeah, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach... At least it is for Ripp. He sure is eager to please!

The way I finally got the neighborhoods back was very complicated and tedious and I really hope I never have to do that again. What happened was that after all of my neighborhoods vanished, stupid me decided to make 2 totally new ones instead of recovering the maxis made ones first. So those 2 towns turned into neighborhood 1 and 2 replacing Pleasantview and Strangetown. With many tries, I went into the Sims program files, copied and pasted the three towns into the saved game files, copied my two neighborhoods I created into a backup file, created 2 new neighborhoods in the game, and then copied the data that was in the old neighborhoods and put it into the new ones. I re-loaded the game and I saw that it didnt work, so I had to go to the files again, and re-name every single package in that stupid folder to neighborhood 4 and 5 instead of 1 and 2. Then it finally worked, but my wrist hurt from all the clicking I had to do. We're talking hundreds of files here, and it took about 3 hours.

I'm sure there was an easier way to do it, but at least I got the results I wanted from all that work. Now I just need to rest my wrist for a loooong time.

Wow. Ripp missed work because he was too distracted by Ophelia? That's just too perfect.

I agree. I see Ripp being very interested in those little details, like having someone to cook for him. He likes to be "mothered" (plus he's lazy, with no cooking skills *snicker*).

Wow. That does sound like a lot of work. I've never considered deleting the Maxis 'hoods, even if I don't play them (like Veronaville, which I played only once), but when I hear about experiences like yours, I'm glad that I just let it sit there.

Don't hurt your wrist! You need that for playing sims! :D
