The Nurdy-McKeon family

I've been having some issues with my game, but I think it's fixed now. (I deleted some left over items from various worlds).

I think a little update is in order.
 I think Hollie is one of my best looking teens in game, so I took some pics of her.






And then it was time for her birthday. :)


Look how exited her mom and sisters look.And since Salvatore's LTW is to raise 5 children from babies to teenagers, we have another on the way.

She looks kinda happy.


I really don't know why the random clothes are so.. random! What she has on is simply disastrous.



And after her make over. I really couldn't stand looking at her dressed like what she was when she aged up.

New creations.

I am having a hard time finishing my script, so I thought of creating my characters in game, so see what they might be up to. So far I have my main character. I used a different name for her, since the one on the script is temporary and I don't think it suits her.

I have only one shot of her and I am not at all happy with the clothes I had her wear. But I really have no clue what kind of clothes I want her to wear, so her outfit is temporary too.

But enough blah blah, here is Keaira.


(Click the image to view in full size).

I also don't know if this is the right hairstyle for her..


A little more, I am creating a small house for her. I don't know when this will be done, since I want to build it in a small lot (10x10) and I really hope it's big enough.


PS. Does anybody know how I can get rid of the white border in the pics? I want to have a black one, but I saw no option to change that color. There is the option that it's right in front of me and I didn't see it. :P

The Nurdy-McKeon family

Yep, a new family. In a new home. :)

I created Alice (the mom) a while back, played with her when Late Night was released and made her a vampire. Story progression had her married with a random townie (blond hair and black roots, yikes!). So now that Generations was released I took her out of the bin, gave her a husband (Salvatore), had them have a child (Hollie) and moved them in Twinbrook.

The first thing I tried was to make them have a child. I don't know how I ended up with twins. Luckily for me, girls. I didn't take pics though, since I really don't like to play with children and I was rushing through the glow-worm-toddler days. So, when they were about to age up to teens, I thought 'what the hell, I'll take some pics'.

So enough blah blah blah..

Brunhilda and Morgan

Just before they blew the candles.

Alice and Hollie
Like mother, like daughter.

The man of the family, Salvatore
Guys are not my strong point in game. He turned out pretty cute though.

Everyone was getting ready for Brunhilda to age up. They look pretty exited. (I'm sorry about the tree, the second floor is open to below and the pics are weird).

Brunhilda about to age up. *fingers crossed* (She does look a little terrified).

She looks cute. I don't know why she's looking at her big sister like that..

After her make over. Looks much better. :)


And little Morgan's turn.
Alice's face is hilarious!

Creepy...

A weird angle, but she wasn't cooperating.

And after her make-over.

Much better, right?




I haven't taken pics of their house yet. I am planning on it and if anybody wants it I will upload it. Here, not in the official. :)

I love you EA..

..just kidding! My game is ruined. The latest patch is crap.

I tried updating my game, but it kept popping out a message "Please re-install", but nobody knows what to re-install.. So I was determined to do the re-install dance. I uninstalled OLS (which I didn't want to buy in the first place.. now I understand why), then LN, and then it dawned on me that the OLS patch is crappy, why should I uninstall everything and not only OLS?

So I installed LN again, the game updated fine and I started it to see if it works. It did. But later I remembered I had removed all my CC (the Mods folder), so I tried putting this folder back and then boot the game. It loaded, I selected the save to play, it loaded, and when it finished loading and I was about to play.. CRASH! I got the 00x0031#56 whatever message. So we're back to square one on that.

I am really happy that I don't have Generations at this point. I would flip out if I couldn't play a brand new game, just because they suck c*** and they ruined many many games with that damn patch. I honestly hope that they will release a new update really soon, or I am going to send them a not-so-nice email. I can imagine that many people have already done that. But it's really frustrating! I have been playing Sims for 10 years and had no problem. How is it and TS3 is so glitchy and fucked up?

And of course, because I am on a Mac, I don't deserve to play this game. I think that's the way of thinking over there in California (or wherever EA is).. The funny thing is that I have Windows installed for other games, but I play Sims on OSX because 1. my main computer will not see Windows ever and 2. the game runs like it's going to crash on the Windows part.

Rant over. Thank you for reading.

Layout still in testing.

I am really frustrated that I can't find the right layout for this blog. I keep making changes, but it still doesn't look right. I have an image of how I want it to look like in my head, but I can't make it look this way. :(

Please bear with me as I try layout after layout..
