Moving Day (I must be missing something)
VaSims222:
Hi, I've hunted everywhere I can think of for even so much as a discussion of this, so I must be missing something.
Here is my problem, I have a married couple, they have LOTS of plaque's, rewards, and other items that can't be purchased.
I want to move.
The three lousy slots per Sim for inventory doesn't begin to cover it.
It may seem like no big deal, but you know you work for that stuff, I have an "awards trophy" room with plaques all over the place, now I would like to move into a better house, but I'm stuck.
I'm not much for building houses from scratch, I do renovate them to death though, or I would simply tear the house down, use lot adjuster, and build a new house.
I have all the EP's and SP's, so I thought I might try using OFB and moving my stuff 3 items at a time to a store, then moving. Will that work? (I just got OFB as part of a birthday present.)
I would really rather have a better solution then that though, as my poor aging PC takes awhile to load when ever I go somewhere in the car. (A new PC is not an option, I'm putting a daughter through NYU, nuff said on that subject.)
Ideally there would be some mod that would let me pack a bunch of objects into a crate, put the crate in my inventory, then move. Given that I can't find such an object I would guess it's likely not feasible.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, or even just a "man up and live with it", would be appreciated.

You're obviously in the wrong place with this question. try the GAME HELP section
and there's not only 3 slots in the inventory. use the arrow to see all of it. I've not yet managed to reach the limit in the inventory, and I've stored quite a lot in there
*and I'm still wondering how on earth people manage to see the tiny thread called "anecdote assistance" in the stories forum, and not the giant forum called "game help"*

Exactly! I don't get how so many people manage to post their stuff in this tiny nearly invisible forum, and don't notice the requests-forums and such. It's just odd..

Always first, THANK YOU.
In one famous word, syllable? D'OH! So, I was seriously missing something, the down arrow in the inventory. It's not the first "obvious" thing I've missed in this game and likely won't be the last.
It does explain why there is no discussion or mod references anywhere about it as an issue though. (Nice to know I'm singular in something at least, if stupidity counts that is.
In answer to your question, I thought Anecdote was a strange name for a Help topic, BUT, it does say: "Anecdote Assistance Need help? Ideas? Tips? Post here!",
Note the "Need help?" phrase, plus in the case of my post the Ideas and Tips topic applied as well. I did do a search here as well as Goggle using as many terms as I could think of to get help, ideas or tips about this.
OTOH: Help says, "General Sims 2 Help General Sims 2 help questions/discussion not covered under other areas of the forum."
Note the not covered under other phrase, and the Anecdote forum comes BEFORE IT!
Second, when you open the Help forum, which I did before posting here, the fist thing you see is a Vista sticky, the second thing you see is Body Shop sticky. Hmm, looks like a modder's and systems / bugs forum, at least at first blush.
Now, if you have ever read the flaming a poster's butt gets for a misplaced post, not here I mean every where on the Net, and you add to that the toasting I've seen people get in Sims MOD forums for placing game play questions, it is pretty easy to understand why people would pick this board.
If I were Admin here I would just remove the phrase, "Need Help" from the Anecdote topic description, problem solved.

There was no reason to be so condescending from anyone, for you posting here. There are plenty of experienced posters in this forum that will see their posts moved, because they've posted in the wrong area. This is also becoming quite a debate, as to how people are talking to other people here. This isn't another forum where we are the schoolyard bullies and can treat people however we like. I myself have posted in the wrong thread before, and had to have my post moved. So don't worry about posting in the wrong thread, accidents happen. The mods will move it if it needs to be moved. And no your not the only one that's had this, or any other problem in the Sims. Many posts from other forums have been removed over time, it's considered a no no/necromancy to revive older posts, etc...you may have just worded your question/problem differently than someone else. You should not have been talked too/treated like that.
