*Some* of my biggest issues are the look of the sims themselves (doughy is the only way I can describe it) and the fact that all sims will age regardless of the fact that you are not playing them My sentiments exactly. Something about their faces, especially their chins is really annoying. Doughy is a great analogy because their faces look a little fat and unrealistic. Everything else in the Sims 3 has made great strides to be realistic, but the sims themselves look cartoonish compared to sims 1 and 2. They all look like they are related too. Cartoonish was the exact word that came to mind when I saw their faces as well. [ no custom or Enayla level skins?? wtf ] so, I'll just wait, and see what the truly talented people are even able to develop [if anything] for 3.
That's my plan, as well. I might get the game and try it...I'm not sure I'll be able to look past the cartoonish faces, and the skintones and eyes...Ugh! I know I'm going to miss Enayla's beautiful skins and eyes! I'm not sure I'll be able to stand the game without those...and the Insimenator, of course. Haha. I'm hoping that creators find ways to make the kind of amazing CC we have now in TS2 available in TS3. I mean, I'm pretty optimistic about it. We've come a long way since TS2 first came out...I'm hoping the same happens with TS3. There are a lot of very talented people in the Sims community, and I believe that in time, if there is enough interest, people will find a way to make it happen. Of course, I don't know much about making CC...so I could be wrong.

Cute cats everyone! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only cat lover here! Hehe. This is my baby, Pelo: That last picture was actually published in a book. It's kind of a long story, heh. Anyway, that's my Pelo. He's a very smart cat. He actually knows a few tricks! Hahaha. Seriously though, he can sit, stay, shake, lie down, and quite a few other things. EDIT: Oh, and as you can see in the second picture, my blinds are broken. That was all his doing! Haha. EDIT AGAIN: And, no...as far as I know, Pelo has never even seen a mouse, let alone ate one! Hah.

Thanks, Aralie! Glad you enjoyed it. I usually play with headlines on, but turn them off for stories. Except this one - because I wanted a kooky legacy and those really get to be funny sometimes. Wisp is my favorite kitty. You'll see much more of him in upcoming chapters. Thanks so much for reading!
Yay! More Wisp! Haha. That cat is amazing. I can't wait for the next update...not only on this story, but your other two as well!

Great story, Astral! I read it from the beginning! It's so addicting, and very funny! The thing that cracks me up the most is that cat, Wisp, and his obsession with pizza! Hahaha! I still can't stop laughing about that! Next time I play, I'm going to have to leave showheadlines on...I usually turn it off, but now I want to see what my Sim cats think about! Haha.

Having babies at home is quite real. lol! I've had two planned homebirths and would never voluntarily go back to a hospital to birth again. Shudder. Me either! I've never had a home birth, as I've only had one baby... But, in the future, if i do have more children, I am not going back to the hospital!

What does this mean about my video card?? for spore it passed on all but that? is my video card good for sims 3? it works good on sims 2.
Video Card Minimum: 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 (NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 [GeForce 6200 for Vista]+ / ATI Radeon 9500+ / Intel 950+) You Have: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller) FAIL: Sorry, your video card does not meet this minimum requirement. Upgrade to a more powerful video card will make all your applications look better. Click the 'We Recommend' button to see some great options. Video Card Features - Minimum attributes of your Video Card Video RAM: Required - 128 MB , You have - 96 MB Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - Yes Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 2.0 Simpleprincess, according to this, your video card doesn't quite meet the minimum requirements. You need one of the video cards above that I put in italics for you. I don't know much about video cards...but I'm guessing it at least needs to have the minimum amount of RAM to run the game properly. Sorry, I didn't see your question earlier! Soopakewlchick, your computer needs more RAM. The minimum requirement is 1GB, you only have 384MB (1GB=1000MB). I'm not sure about your video card. Hm, it doesn't seem to be on the list of compatible ones...You might need to upgrade that as well. If anyone knows their stuff about video cards, please correct me if I'm wrong about anything. Hah.

Okay, this was going to be a much longer post, but I narrowed it down. I had about 6 different versions of this banner! I decided to delete two of them. If there are still too many, just let me know, and I can probably narrow it down even more. Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4 The ones that I deleted from the post look like the first three, only with different colored fonts. One has purple lettering, the other white/gray.
