Thanks for the assist. Didn't really think of going on a chapter-by-chapter basis. I was going to get the whole story done beginning to end before switching to other families. My game is playing up and crashes a lot lately, not sure why. I think I need to do a defrag or buy some new memory cards. I have to stick to one family for as long as it lets me, save like mad, and take as many pics as I can before it quits. Might do the chapter thing though. Haven't posted any of my writing lately cause it's all gone stale on me. This just might help freshen things up enough for me to go back on ffnet (fan fiction).

Nother reason I haven't posted anything; I babble. Can you tell? 
Thanks again.

Hi all! I'm almost ready to start posting my first, ever, story and I was hoping for some title ideas from the general populace. I'll be doing a series starring the original EAxis characters as many have done before me and I was thinking of using either 'Pleasantview Tales' or 'As the PLumbbob Toggles'. I would have gone for a Brit-type soap title, but ours are kind of dull; 'Hollyoaks', 'East Enders' and 'Coronation Street'.

Anywho, let me know what you think. The first one up will be "Lilith's Story". That title is up for debate too.

Thanks!

aw crap, you mean i gotta spend MORE money? DAMN YOU EA!! ...and advent!

Intel G45/G43 Express Chipset

checked that too. it's got more than enough. there's a guy over at mts that's having the same problem, only with less people to help.

here's the funny thing, the game used to play on my pc many moons ago. haven't played it since shortly after it came out. it's an intel dual core with 4GB memory and only older than ts3 by a couple of weeks. i ran a couple of tests for compatibility and it passed with flying colours. i stripped this thing down to the bedrock, removing even a few programs that weren't associated with it just to give it a bit more memory to run with, tried to play just the bg with no cc anywhere near it and it froze as soon as the bar in the load screen went completely green. the fast lane doesn't even play the music... or move, for that matter.

I've done everything I can think of and my game never starts, no matter what. I currently have all the expansions, yet I've stripped out and un-installed everything (including EADM), removed cache files, updated, even tried to run it as base game and I get nothing. Right now I'm trying to run it with absolutely NO cc whatsoever, freshly reinstalled, brand-spanky new and it's still complaining about a non-existent mod, telling me it may cause crashes, and freezing on the load page. HELP! THIS THING'S TOO FREAKING EXPENSIVE NOT TO USE AND I CAN'T RETURN IT!!

i went and bought it like a fool and am desparately trying to enjoy it since it cost me £4o, but i just can't! though the graphics are a leeeetle bit better than ts2, the animation is craptacular and it pisses me off that you can't enter all the comm lots (actually go in and see what's inside them) during gameplay. also, there's not a whole lot of 'new' and 'better' like they said there would be.

Wasn't there a page on here with a cpu-sbb linked skin? I've been searching around and can't find it. If not, would it be at all possible for someone to make one please? I would, but I'm crap at that end of cc creation.

lovin the story! question, where did you get angela's hair? i had that one once, but i can't find it now (pc died).

alrighty then!

does it also need ikea stuff? cause i don't have that one.

thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!! ...and welcome back!

the bookshelf portals don't work

i'd get it just for the witches (which is what i've been waiting on since the base game). the rest is buggy perks
