The pictures are in the Storytelling folder in the Neighborhood folder in My Documents, but when I'm playing the house and click the book icon to write a story the pictures that I used to write a story before (when I deleted the file of the story because I didn't realize that was what it was) are not there and neither is the story. There are three tabs to click in that mode. These pictures don't show when I click any of the three of them anymore. I want the pictures to show again so I can use them in a story. I have SimPE if that's necessary.
I also trash the thumbnails except for the pictures that my Sims order prints of because I'm not sure whether the framed prints on their walls use the snapshot or the thumbnail. I trash anything I don't think I need every time I exit the game--caches and web entries. I do a disk cleanup every time and my computer is set to do a defrag at 1a.m. every day. I used to move all of my snapshots to a separate folder outside the game but if I write a story I'll leave them there.
Everything is working great for me but I don't have an option to hunt for bugs no matter where I click. The condition of my plants does deteriorate much quicker and I have to reset the seasons for one sub-neighborhood every time I load the game. As far as I know that's it for Freetime issues for me.
I have never before used the feature in the game to write stories (I don't upload to the exchange and I write my stories on my own fansite) and I tried it this week. I enjoyed it because it was easy. I'm not a writer by any means but I liked that it helped me to organize and keep up with my new Legacy family. I did not upload the story. The computer with the game on it is not online. When I exited the game, though, and went back into it the story was gone and the pictures were not available to start over. I learned later that I had deleted the story file. I always delete caches and the web entries and that stuff and do a disk cleanup (so they are not in the recycle bin anymore) before I load the game. The pictures from that story are still in the folder in the neighborhood folder i My Documents but they don't show up when I'm in the lot and trying to write a story. Is there any way to make them useable again? I don't want to upload a story but just to use this feature to make sort of an outline of the story so I can write it later. Thank you!
I am PO with amazon.com I had Pre-ordered it and picked overnighted,now I fined out today that i will not get it untill 3 or 4 of March
I pre-ordered from them the first day that we could and mine isn't even being shipped until the third. I'm so aggravated. Estimated arrival is March 10-14!
Does this new computer do all of the other computer stuff or just play games? I can't see buying computers anymore except for wealthy families who have more than one.
I'm going to make sure my "test subject's" aspiration and skills are already high before I install so they can concentrate on hobbies when I have the EP. I thought it was more random than that. I guess we'll see.
I have a whole frat house stuck on the campgrounds at Three Lakes. I've summoned them to a dorm and moved them in but the frat house still shows that they live there and are away and the vacation lot shows that it's occupied. One of the dudes was my Legacy founder. He's a married elder now but apparently also a vacationing frat boy.
