I installed Freetime recently.

Some npc bozo brought a new computer in a gift package to one of characters, Josepo. So, as Josepo is a new political talent I commanded him to write a novel to get creativity points for a promotion. Josepo sits down and turns on the computer and there's an exciting new screen about storyline. I clicked on five items and a book cover and continued. Next what happens is Josepo abandons the project and starts to play a game. I tried the same few times in next few days with always the same result. Josepo doesn't even carry on with the same storyline.

Next problem was that when Josepo got promoted he always earned about 10times more simoleons than before.

At this point I got fed up and thought about creating a new character. I went to CAS, and what do you know - you can't see any tooltip texts over the small images of clothes. So how I am supposed to tell which clothes belong to 34d36 body and which to Classic Pin Up?

I actually had very few problems with other EP's, have all of them, but now I'm thinking maybe it wasn't such a good idea to buy Freetime.

I've recolored a bunch of German soldier/nco uniforms of the Nazi era. The work on the first set is 95% finished, and quality is pretty good. As there weren't perfect meshes for the job I used Maxis soldiers uniform and had to make some compromises with realism but they look realistic enough. I'm not a Nazi or anything like that, au contraire, I just created them to give my villaineous populace some variety and to study the uniforms for another project of mine.

There are few Wehrmacht, Afrika Korps and Waffen-SS soldier- and NCO-uniforms including a cool SS-camoflage lieutenant's version. In the near future I probably will continue to create higher ranking officers.

I've been leeching a lot mainly here and in mts2 so it's about time I start contributing but I thought I ask if it's ok first because of the Nazi era symbols including swastikas and ss-standards. Should I change them first to non-existant imagined symbols, like some runic-styled Simstaffel thingies and simoleon/swastika-mix - what do you fine people here at the insimenator think?

Greetungs,

Following few tutorials I recolored a set of pictures (not frames, only pics), the one which has different plants in total four separate frames in two rows   (2x2).

Everything has went as should, except in the game recolored pics show only when I zoom to view them from close distance. From far it shows original pics of plants.

I used latest SimPE, photoshop cs and I have Pets EP installed.

One thing popped to my mind - could it be because I saved the edited .PNG as non-interlaced in photoshop? It perhaps outcloses the alpha channel or something?

Thanks in advance,
Kokozas
