This is the continuation of my story The Ordinary Princess from the Miss Fairytale contest that was hosted by Pilotpigen here at Insimenator.
 
As the introduction to The Oblique I give you the four chapters of The Ordinary Princess for anyone who is interested in reading and learning a little bit about some of the characters you will be seeing, and what came before The Oblique.

Chapter One
Chapter Two
Chapter Three
Chapter Four
 
The Oblique
 
Chapter One - April 16 / In Tunisia
Chapter Two - April 20 / In Morrisey

Here are two more of my (Miss Fairytale) Amethyst's siblings, twin teens.  The information on where to get the hair and clothes shown in the pictures is listed beneath the pictures.

Name: Emerald
Aspiration: Romance
Starsign: Taurus

Emerald is a confident, headstrong and flirtatious teen. Having just come of age she has been presented at court and is greatly enjoying the flirtations of the men who are seeking to woo her. Is she headed towards trouble or just a little naive?

This gives you a bit of a sneak peak at the plot of my Miss Fairytale contest story that I have actually decided I will continue past the contest. So don't tell anyone.

Continuing to upload my Amethyst's siblings that I can not put to good use in my game, I hope some people out there can and will use them well.


Name: Zarren
Aspiration: Fortune

As firstborn Prince of Morrisey, Zarren was first in line for the throne. Then along came his younger brother with ambition to match his own. Now Zarren's craving for power could tear their world apart.

Name: Gareth
Aspiration: Knowledge

Secondborn Prince of Morrisey, Gareth's tactics are no match for the cruel moves of his brother. But with the Kingdom's best interests at heart can Gareth bring peace back to Morrisey before it's too late?

Since it's MissDoh's birthday today I thought I would make her a couple of simple tshirts of something she seems to really like. :happy8:

When I entered the Miss Fairytale contest here at Insim, my girl Amethyst was a Princess with a really big family. So I made her a lot of siblings, and now that the contest is over I have no use for them. Maybe you can something to do with them! Here are the first two.


Name: Ruby
Aspiration: Family
Starsign: Libra

Eldest Princess of the Kingdom of Morissey, Ruby is a generous spirit, with a heart filled with love and a fondness for music. Will she be the victim of a political marriage, or will you help this beauty find her knight in shining armor?


Name: Sapphire
Aspiration: Pleasure
Starsign: Aries

Second eldest Princess of the Kingdom of Morissey, Sapphire has always gotten her way and had everything she ever wanted. Cruel and unkind to others, can you help her see the error of her selfish ways?

I've been having this glitch since I installed Seasons. I can play for about 15 minutes before the game jams. The game play still seems to continue (as I can tell from sounds) but on screen it's frozen and jerking, sort of stuck between 1 second of animation, back and forth, and the whole screen jerks back and forth.

I discovered today if I press tab and go into camera mode, move my mouse around then bring it back down to look at the house/sims again, it fixes the jam... briefly. But then it happens again over and over a few seconds apart. I can go into options, save, exit to the neighbourhood and come back and play for awhile, then it jams again.

I am playing with 0 downloads. No hacks, no mods, no nothing. Yesterday I uninstalled all the games and reinstalled them. Still getting the weird glitch.

My graphics card is a Nvidia GeForce 6600 GT. I read about this glitch:

But my problem has occured when it hasn't been raining. I've attached my errors log, though all the errors seem to be audio related as far as I can see.

I'm feeling as if my only option is to uninstall and go back to Pets unless I want to put up with saving my game and loading back in every few minutes as the error occurs.

I decided to do a second version of these with singlets. I hope you like them. :angel:

Sorry for posting this in two sections, but I figured it might be useful here too!

As found on snootysims.com:

As told a couple days ago, the patch for the Pets expansionpack has now been posted on the official Sims2 site. There is a seperate version for those that have the Digital Download. Also note that in Europe the expansion came on DVD. I think we can assume that the CD patch also works for the DVD version.
Find the link to the patches and the bugfixes here:
- CD patch
- Digital Download patch

I have been working on these for a few days, and now they are finally finished! Here for your drooling pleasure, this is a boxer shorts alpha edit & retexture of tomang's very sexy Real Body Underwear mesh.
 
To see these in your game you must download the mesh from MTS2.

I have this somewhat new fancy cordless keyboard with all these extra buttons that you can assign to things. The problem is that the F1-F12 buttons that used to have functions in bodyshop that helped you view the outfits you're working on closer... no longer function with this keyboard. When I hit them now in bodyshop I get this message:

SetPoint-Programmable Buttons

This button has not been assigned to a function.
Press Yes if you wish to assign a function to this button.

So if I hit yes it lets me go in and program the buttons. But, I don't know how to set it up to work with bodyshop. I think that stuff is all part of Bodyshop, those keys having those functions... so how do I get my keyboard to just work the way it used to before I had this one?
