1  Simmers' Paradise / Mods & Careers / Auto-Pause when going to Community Lots on: March 10, 2010, 10:03:19 pm
Hi, would it be possible to make a mod that would simply load into a lot Paused whenever i change lots in game? I know i can pause before saving, I'm talking about whenever I have my sim travel. I dont know why, but I have no patience with loading time, especially since i like to play in window mode and have a habit of doing 5 or more things at a time, so if im traveling i ALWAYS miss when the new place finally loads, and i have no clue what all has been going on the whole time but my sim has no motives left by the time i notice 90% of the time. Being a control freak unless im intentionally letting sims doom themselves with their artificial untelligence, i always end up reloading and that takes more time, and then make the same mistake a few more times before saying f it. If it could also be possible to have it compatable with castaway thatd be awesome, since that game not only loads each place unpaused, the storyline quests continue and so i have to reload or miss stuff. i actually gave up playing the story game due to its incompatability with ADHD.

edit: i have all expansions through AL, no stuff packs
2  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Custom Pets / Mice and cages on: December 16, 2007, 06:28:23 pm
This is my first object ive ever made so its not perfect, i wanted pet mice and since pierreandreply4 was requesting it and noone was responding, i glanced over teh vase makng tutorial and used Killny's pet making tutorial on modts2, and made this based off the womrat cage. it doesn not replace the womrats, and i learned how to make recolors at the same time so i could add all three cage colors and all 5 of the womrat colors. i edited the womrat .pngs when i did the mouse recolors a little so the noses wouldnt appear on the middle of the mouses head rofl. and i made a dark brown mouse so ther are a toal of 6 mice colors and the 3 default cage colors. There are a few issues i dont know hw to do anything about since this is my first experience ever with dealing with vertices and joints and meshing, so the legs bend funny when it is picked up, and the ears get animated a little bizzare when it runs on teh wheel, but since its such a tiny creature its not that big of a deal to me since im not going to be sitting there zooomed in watching it run around for hours and when your not zoomed in it loks ok usually. if someone knows how to fix that stuff and wants to after seeing it in acton, that would be cool.

edit: here is teh link to the thread that has more pictures of it. scroll all the way down to the bottom of the first page and ignore the first set since they were my very first attempt ever/rough draft results. http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=63589

edit: the tutorial i used was klinny's not killnys, as i misspelled above before it was pointed out to me.
3  Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / robot building machine not working on: December 10, 2007, 12:49:56 pm
This is just a shot in the dark, but has anyone else experienced a problem where your sims cant click on the robot building workbench but can still use the flower/toy bench? Im sure I must have probably downloaded something incompatable at some point in time but have no clue what, since ive downloaded heaploads of objects since i last actually used the robot building machine. I have all the expansions, but no stuff packs, and i have a lot of cc and mods. I am basically just wondering if it could be anything other than cc, and if anyone has experienced this issue and detected what it is that has the compatability issue. The robot bench works for noone, and ive tried it with several households that it used to work for as well as new one, in all 3 of my neighborhoods. Im at a loss as to what the problem is other than some kind of custom content, since it worked after i installed bv, but sometime in the last month or so something broke it.
4  Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / replacing currently used skins with edited ones on: November 06, 2007, 12:55:21 am
meh, so i got sick of certain skins that i mostly liked, but that were missing features on one sex since they were only made for the other, or other various things like skin eyebrows that i wanted erased, and i cloned them with bodyshop and edited them myself. what i want to know is if theres a way i can replace the originals that are being used by my various sims with the new versions i edited for my own use so taht those sims using teh old versions will then have my new versions and so i can then delete the old versions. i was worried about changing the names of the new files to overwrite the old, will that work right? also some of the skins i edited are showerproof mesh skins and im not sure if that will also complicate matters. im aware that once simpe eventually is bv compatible i can simsurgery all the sims to have my edited skins instead of teh old ones, and after spending hours doing taht i can delete the old ones, but would like to be able to avoid that long process of mass simsurgery if i can simply replace the old ones with the new edited versions i made without resulting in mass corruption since everytime i screw around with things first i usually learn my lessons the hard way heh.
5  Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / about half my sims dont have a body skin on: March 29, 2007, 02:21:24 pm
hi, ive never posted here before but i like a lot of the downloads and i figured if anyone can help me, its the people here. i did something really stupid last night. i was trying to get rid of custum stuff i didnt want, and decided i didnt like the custom skin that about half my sims were existing in. i had downloaded default replacement skins, and for some reason i stupidly assumed that if i deleted the unwanted custom skin, the sims would all appear in default skins...LOL! so, now about half my sims in all 4 of my neighborhoods and their subneighborhoods (i have all the eps, but not the stuff packs) are essentially ruined. no, i never backed them up. at first glance, the sims appear to have skin when in clothes, only their heads dont match the bodies. when the sims are getting into showers, the bodies dissappear completely and all i see is their head ROFL. so, am i going to have to delete sims that ive had for 3 years and all their decendants (or however long the games been around now), or is their a way i can set all sims to have default skins, considering we are talking about around 100 sims, possibly more? im hoping i didnt just destroy half my sims, because that would actually ruin about 90% of my families. i cant find that old custom skin again to download either, ive already tried.
