I have yet to install this game, but the box is sitting on my desk and inching closer to me. Has anyone played a witch yet? Were you a good witch or bad? Did you think it was worth the hype? I'd love to hear about your sims!

Alrighty... I am trying to decide if Ikea is worth getting. I snubbed it at first because I didn't care for the DIY look. I want my sims to live in style! Now that it's been around a while more people are making recolors and I'm seeing objects that are pretty darn nice.

What is your opinion on the Ikea SP? Was it worth buying? Are some of the objects nicer than the squared off, screw showing pieces that I've seen on the promo pictures? What do you like and don't you like?

*blink* It's not even CC! I've started to play my game more and noticed a flashing bench in some of the community lots. Same stupid bench, too. Has anyone else had this problem? Any fix (since it's not CC)? I just don't want my game to crash because of a stupid bench.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ones that actually fix it even moreso! *grins*

I emailed the creator of this house (which I adore) and am crossing my fingers that it's something simple. Here's the scoop:

The unfurnished lot states that it's in two parts. There's only ONE link to download. I downloaded the house and looked through the Read Me file. All the CC *seems* to be there. Ooookay, so I installed the lot with Clean Installer and went to play. When I added the lot I got blue flashing on the side and in the house. It stopped once I entered the lot. But the custom content isn't there! Here's the weird part. I've tried to place the lot a couple of times and each time some CC may show up. I am hoping this is an easy fix. I suck at creating (or recreating) anything. I've tried using the Sims2 installer also.

EP: Sims2 (duh), NL, Pets, Uni, OFB, BV
SP: Glamour, H&M

Here are some screenshots:

Here is the link to the original house:

More info: After installing the lot I have moved the CC into a specific folder for the house. It downloaded into the Main Downloads folder. I'm not sure if this matters or not.

I have just started going on vacations and noticed an odd message when I ran my cursor over the Sim icon. I never noticed it before. What does this mean? Also, should I be concerned it's in more than one language (the box says English)?

Here's a printscreen of the message:

I have two requests (shocker!). I would love Marvine's Heels using:

1. Some short dress and
2.The updated Bikini Mesh (IE: No pointy nipples or huge crack up the back/in front).

My ULTIMATE goal is to have something that I can use for dresses like Marvine's Multipurpose mesh for maxis. I have about 30 dresses that use Marvin's wonderful mesh PLUS Marvine's original dresses that I'd love to move to the FM shape at least. *crosses fingers*

Here is my first upload to InSIMenator. I hope you like him!

Here are the links to the creators of the wonderful custom content I used. Without them this game would NOT have the appeal/addiction for so many of us. Jade is packed with Maxis hair and without the piercings per the creator's wishes. I have linked the sites to download these items. Also not included are the clothing... but the links are also provided.

Included:
Eyes by Enayla from MTS2
Sideburns & Gotee Combo by Jase~
Lip color by Zoej from MTS2
Skintone by JWilson5


Not included:
Piercings by Sleepless_Angel from MTS2
Hair by MYOS from SAU (MYOS Male Hair 17)
Outfit by OpenHouseJack and mesh by beosboxboy

How do I put the floor down on a sectioned part (IE: half a square)? I downloaded a custom lot and can't remember where to ask the creator. Thank you for any help! The circles are where I am trying to put down the floor. Let me know if I need to make a clearer photo. Thanks again!

I have been happily playing NightLife (after ironing out a few kinks) and am thinking of buying the other EPs. Honestly I don't even want to play them... just for the options that they come with. I've found some wonderful downloads that I can't fully enjoy because I only have the one. My question to you is... have you bought any of the EPs used and does it make a difference? I'm sure this will be a silly question... but I'd like to know before I start begging for Chanukah gifts early.

I'm having an odd issue. I downloaded a bedroom set and went to set it up and cannot find all of the sections. This is not the first time this has happened. I checked the download folder and all is there. The collection file is in it's proper place and yet... no vanity or short dresser. I remember a friend mentioning that you sometimes don't get the same options on games (not sure if this is true) but didn't think it would change a special object. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
