Just wanted to share a photo or two...


Did you ever take a sim photo that you just had to share right away? Yeah, me too. You'll see it eventually if you read my chapter of The Round Robin Legacy, but you can take a peek now too, if you like. It's kind of a spoiler, but it's not really a pivotal scene. Well, maybe, but... well, I won't go into details, but I'm on the "nobody cares" team here with Conner.







First of all, I'm thrilled by this pretty little scene that came with the apartment I downloaded for this.




The "staffage" also comes in handy when ACR works it's magic. ;)

Somehow, with the gorgeous setting, this scene on the bench comes off as romantic instead of smutty.




Especially with the fountain in the foreground. It almost looks like they're making love IN the fountain. It's just looked so pretty, I had to share.

I must also say that ACR is really making my stretch of the legacy more enjoyable for me. I left a lot of the story up to chance and risky woohoo. This element of surprise is so much fun in storytelling, and I now know why so many people couldn't live without this hack. It's so much more fun than planning out every little detail.

That is SO Nathan/Helena spawn. ;D

That guy is so cute! *Pinches his cheeks*

Though now that I read the other comments I realized he's Helena's kid :P. I'm so bad at recognizing facial traits (I think he resembles one of her kids in my game, Pippin, a little bit).

Nissa is cute too, but every time I see her profile, I worry about her breathing! (if she were real, she'd probably snore a lot at night!)

That's an amazing lot! I love downloading new lots and discovering the neat places they offer for pictures or stories. Though I admit I've had a bit of trouble taking pictures at apartments. I'm used to just plop my animation boxes in the garden when I need to pose a sim (and then I delete them), but with apartments, that's impossible.

So now you understand the fun part of having ACR. For me, it's not the random sex, it's the fact that my sims "randomly" choose their love life for me. It forces me to think about new ways to explain their decisions, and it's very entertaining to me.

Now that I have had a taste of what is to come, I can't wait to see the end results. Hope it is soon to come.

That fountain pic is beautiful :) .. and you're really tempting me to plop ACR into my supposedly mod-free legacy... 0:-)

The pictures are gorgeous! I love the way they look. And I thought it was Nathan, until I saw he had Red hair. xD

And, CC question, where'd you get Nyssa's hair in the pics? I thought it was a Raon retextured hair, but it looks different.

Dammit, you're making us wanna try ACR now.

Well, I guess we could... as long as we set them to always use birth control.

Also, those are some pretty pictures there! I like Nissa, her face is cool.

Wow! Awesome! And I just have to wonder: where are the arches from? And the fountain? Is it in the game (I haven't really played AL a lot).
