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!

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
