"STFU&WooHoo" kind of sums up my idea of romance, actually...
2  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Misc. Mods and Careers / EP8: OpenMic Visitor Enabled on: September 14, 2008, 07:56:49 pm
I hadn't tried it in a Community Lot yet, so I didn't realize the new microphone WASN'T visitor-enabled.  Why in God's green did Maxis not think to enable that?  Words fail.

Thanks for fixing this, Ailias!

Welcome back, and thanks!  Does this work on basic skills only, or can they build badge skills (fishing, gardening, etc.) as well?

Okay, now I know why I should never have made a self-sim, because the Woo-Hoo cinematic is extra-disturbing.

I should hope that, should I ever make that face during sex, my partner would love and respect me enough to shoot me right in the head.

I dunno.  Maybe some skilled skinner will take pity on us and release a womrat hat.  heh

Awesome!  This will go great with the Underwater theme from FF Stuff!  Thank you!

After a couple of years of avoiding Body Shop like the plague (you can alter cheekbones!  Who knew?), I decided it was high time I included my big, scary pumpkin-like head in a self-sim.  I'm a Leo, and tend to lean towards Knowledge or Romance aspirations (translation:  man-whore who reads).  Turn-offs would be stink, fat, or unemployed (BV); Turn-ons would include fit, red hair, black hair, charismatic or logical sims (BV), and Russians.  Er, that is, uh, "hats."

I have all expansion packs, but they're patched, so the dreaded Pets bug shouldn't affect anyone, should they suffer a lapse of momentary insanity and decide to move me into their neighborhood.  I made me as a Young Adult, in case you're like me and send most of your sims to college, but you can enroll him and drop him out if you want to proceed to life as a regular adult (similar to what happened to real Craig; I'm still bitter about only having four Want slots in real life).

Custom Content:

Eyes by IcedMango at Mod the Sims 2.

Outfit and mesh (included) by Funny at Pimp My Sims.

Eyebrows are not included, but are by Rose Sims.  I couldn't find the exact brow when I went looking for it to include.  I asked Rose for permission to upload it, but after about five minutes I got impatient (told you I'm a Leo) and decided to remove it from the download.

Skintone used is JWilson5's modified Louis skintone, xhairy black light skin.  I didn't include it in order to keep the file size small (I live in the Twigs, which are like the Sticks, but smaller, and have no access to broadband), but you can find it here.

The hair used is the Caesar cut from Seasons, but any short brown or black hair should look okay.

The sim is packaged with the square grey-tinted Maxis glasses (which are very close to the ones I wear in real life), but I took them off for the snapshot so you can see my squinty little eyeballs.  Rat on head sold separately.

According to a FAQ I just read, it's the "Shinytime" stove (the second most expensive Maxis stove) that causes the cafeteria worker to appear.  Just in case, you know, you don't want your students to starve to death or burn the place down trying to make a cup of Ramen.

Aw, thanks!  I love it, too.  I have five families in different versions of this house, and it's amazing how it can be so tiny and so spacious at the same time.

I have to keep an eye on the woo-hooing, though.  One more kid, and one of my families is going to have to start stashing 'em in the attic.  Don't want them going all Dollanganger on me.

Just a little mid-size house I threw together whilst experimenting with the roof slope angle cheat.  I wanted to create one of those houses where the roof looks like an inverted checkmark.  I'm particularly happy with the raised dining area.  The second bedroom would have been less cluttered, but my Sims had twins.  What can you do?

It's got two bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths, and includes an orchard and greenhouse.  The one-tile pet bed is NOT included in the download, but can be found at Sim Wardrobe.  It requires Seasons EP.

I had never made extensive used of the "Storybook" build items that came with OFB, so I decided to make a house using them almost exclusively.  What's nice about it is that you can completely change the look of the house with minor effort, since the Storybook items come in a range of colors.  I was really pleased with the result, and have used the house for several of my families.  It's great for creating a subdivision of similar homes with different colors.

Please note that the house comes unfurnished.  I decided to do it that way in order to create a smaller download, and to let people decorate and furnish it however they want.  I've included some gameplay shots of different families to show how I've decorated different homes.

The house has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as a basement and an attic.  It sells for a little over 24,000 simoleons.  It's quite roomy, and great for either a family with children or two families to share.

I used mostly Maxis stuff, but there are some custom walls and floors from Parsimonious.

This home requires OFB and Seasons.

I think all of us old people lived at the roller rink when we were kids.  Remember the insane DJ/announcer guy?  "Now, everyone skate backwards!  Couples skate!"

Wow.  Just, wow.  In the facial comparison pic, you almost can't tell them apart.  This is probably the best celebrity sim I've seen.  It almost reaches "uncanny valley" territory.
14  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Residential / "Moose Lodge" Vacation Cabin on: September 17, 2007, 05:31:55 am
Thanks!  I was hoping to be all original until I looked at the thread and saw cabins, cabins, cabins.  What makes mine stand out is, er...  it...  uh...  sings!  Yeah, that's it!
15  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Residential / "Moose Lodge" Vacation Cabin on: September 17, 2007, 05:20:32 am
With the addition of Bon Voyage, I've started designing some vacation homes.  This one is a rustic cabin in a wooded area with fishing access.  It has two stories and a basement, two decks, and two bedrooms.  This is intended for use as a Lake Area vacation home, but can be used as a regular residence.  It sells for around 75,000 simoleons.

Dead leaf ground cover by McTrick at McTrick's Place.

Unsigned "moist terrain."  If this is yours, let me know so I can credit you.

Custom objects (except for fridge) by Kate.

Custom old-time fridge by Hed at Southleigh Simdustries.  I can't find a link to this site, but he gives permission to share the object in the object description.  NOTE:  I'm unsure if this fridge will use the "Stock" and "Leftovers" options that came with Seasons.

I have all expansions, but this should be compatible with any.  The pillars I used in the deck came with Bon Voyage.
