TS3 Activity at Lachesis Presents

Since I've been playing TS3 fairly regularly lately, I found a bunch of pictures in my screenshot folder that I take when something funny happens or just whatever takes my fancy. So I've started adding them in an organized (more or less) fashion to my Lachesis Presents site.

I'm also adding Sims and whatever else I may feel like as downloads. There are three Sims there at present, Leta, Mack and Kiku.

Anyway, if you're interested in The Sims 3, or just want to see some of what's available with the game and its expansions, World Adventures and Ambitions, you might want to check it out. It's pretty simple and quick to look at. I'm not telling stories per se, but the pictures do follow along the lives of the Sims I'm playing. I have four families in Sunset Valley I rotate through. I have it set up so that I play a household for 14 days, it was 7 but that wasn't long enough; for three of those days, story progression and aging are turned on. I'm hoping this will allow the world to move on without too much insanity, but at the same time allow me to have more than one family in the neighborhood.

I play with a custom skin default and custom eye default. That's all the custom content I use, except for a pair of jeans I got from Club Crimsyn. I do not hack this game, which means, I have to have to find ways around the bugs.

The two annoying bugs I've found are:

1. After playing tag or anything that causes autonomous running the Sim won't walk again, they only run. To fix this, I evict the entire family with house to the clipboard. I bulldoze the house left on the lot, then stick family and house back on the empty lot it came from.

2. When you change the active household, don't leave any garden produce, caught fish or leftovers in the refrigerator, it won't be there when you go back to the household. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hoping that putting it in my gardener's personal inventory will work since I don't lose the personal inventory any more.

Take care,
Lachesis

A Tiny Break

I give. I've been having trouble getting things done, so I'm taking a break. Not a big one, just a couple of weeks. I'll be back in September. Hopefully with bells on and stories to tell. :)

Or finish, as the case may be.

Thank you everyone for reading and bearing with my recent sporadic posts, it's very much appreciated.

Take care,
Lachesis

(Yes, that's my self-Sim. I tried to do one in TS2 and never could. It's so nice to know I have a TS3 face. ;D)

Guardian's Key Update

Sea of Moons, Guardian's Key Temple of Aodh Part II is finally up. Sorry for the delay, but I just couldn't seem to get it to sound the way I wanted. Not sure it still does, but you can only rewrite something so long before it becomes overwritten. :)

Take care,

Late. Again. *sigh*

O-kay, it's official, I can't make Sundays despite trying. :)

Late again. Guardian's Key up next, hopefully soon.

Take care,

Bringing Back the Schedule

As you can see, a new Sea of Moons, Guardian's Key Part 5, The Temple of Aodh, Part I. Telaan is finally found, but will they be able to save him now that they found him?

It appears that Wake the Dead has decided to take on a life of its own, and I can't see completing it at any time in the near future, so, rather than put SoM off any longer, I'm reinstating the old rotation schedule. Frankly, I've missed SoM and my characters.

Oh, and this special post is early, the normal schedule will again be Sunday's if at all possible.

Also, I want to thank S@ndy for sending me a tutorial on doing Telaan's chains. Yeah, I know, you sent that to me ages ago, but I'm slow. It made getting this update completed that much easier.

Take care,
Lachesis
