For Music Simbol... Happy (belated) Birthday!

[strangetomato]

I didn't forget your birthday, music_simbol, but my gift couldn't be created with my game all messed up like it was. So please accept this belated gift: a little "family" portrait of some of your favourite sims. No, I'm sorry, it's not smut. :P The sim men in question are above that sort of thing. Try as I might, I couldn't even get them to take off their shirts.





This is how we take portraits in the Worthington family. :) Pretty classy, don't you think?

Apartment Life is going to be very good to the Worthingtons. They'll even have a butler now. I'm planning to spend some time fixing up their place with all the new snooty content. It's going to be awesome. You'll be seeing more of Frances and his family, and isn't that sort of like a gift in itself?

Happy Birthday, Music Simbol! As others have said, I hope you didn't transition into something embarrassing. :P

Thanks.

I haven't heard anything about cutting off the tops of walls. So, it cuts into the molding? Hmmm... I'll have to check it out. Sounds like a minor annoyance to me, considering the ease of ceilings with this. (The EP is almost worth it for that alone, in my opinion. The ceilings are a blessing.)

Haven't you heard? Frances does things on his own terms now. *snicker* Actually, he always wore sneakers and jeans (faded, even - !!!) with his cashmere sweater and tie. He's a walking enigma, that Frances.

Yeah, he has the bored, rich thing down to a science, doesn't he?

Yeah, some people were whining that the ceilings cut of the top molding. I thought it was a little nitpicky, too, but then again, if you're going for a certain look to a house (especially if you've already shown it with top molding) I could see how that would be annoying.

So ceilings work like floor tiles (only in the air)? What's it like when a staircase is going through the ceiling? Any weirdness?

*stops the ceiling grilling*

I'm still giving this EP a good sideways glance. I'm just not sold on it yet. BUT, I am starting to give BV the eyeball. I just can't stop thinking about Bigfoot.

They're even easier than floor tiles. You don't have to place them one by one (I know you can drag the floor tiles, but it's still individual placement to me). They're just added automatically. You can toggle them on and off. I really like it.

Where a staircase goes up, there's just a hole in the ceiling, much as it always was. I looks normal enough.

I still haven't figured out how to get different ceilings. I haven't played it all that much yet, really.

*snort* You've been won over to Bigfoot? I thought you refused to go there... and I was really trying to convince you for a while. I thought you were firmly anti-BV.

Ooh, auto ceiling. That is nice. (I am a floor tile dragger, but I place wallpaper/paint one at a time).

*sigh* Yes, Bigfoot is really appealing to me. I had a feeling he would be my downfall. I'm still not all rabid and racing to the store for it (and I'm leery of some of the glitches I've heard it has) but once I have a new computer (which is being built as we speak) I'll have room for it, so why not? (and new animation box options is always good)

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm loving the auto ceiling. (And I hear you about the walls. When I drag it, it's easy to put wallpaper on the wall behind the wall I want to add it to. What's up with that?)

Well, why not? I get every EP I can manage to play (which, luckily, is all of them... for now). As a whole, the collection of add ons gives you so many options. Unless my game became really slow, I wouldn't hesitate to add another one if it appealed to me.

The BV animations have some good potential. You'll like them.

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

*snort* That's EXACTLY why I do the wall coverings one at a time. You don't know how many times I've accidentally put wallpaper on the outside of the house (over the siding).

Right now, my current computer can't handle any more EPs. BV should add some non-story fun to the game, too. Finally playing OFB for real (in the Round Robin) was great.

(speaking of OFB, I was miffed when I found out the "malls" aren't individual stores available to buy, but one HUGE store, so Pascal's going to have a freestanding flower shop--which I'll have to build)
