Cool Finds for Contests!

[Sam the T-man]

You're welcome

Just out of interest, I've seen pics of sims on their bellies looking as though they're leafing through a book, or something like that... how is that done? Is that through BV or another EP?

Oh it's that! Had a feeling it might be Thanks for letting me know, I obviously haven't played with it enough yet

[summer_wine]

okay. i installed numenor's scriptorium and stupidly decided to install radiance lighting mod as well. now my game is so freakishly dark!

can anyone tell me where to get that other lighting mod? it wasn't as drastic as the radiance mod is. i think it was scooby or something like that. can anyone point me to the right direction? i can't see what i'm doing in game most of the time LOL

Toddlers get in and out of bed themselves!

I love toddlers in the game but getting them in and out of bed is a pain.  With this bed they will go to bed by themselves and get out of bed by themselves.

I have it in my game and it works fantastic.  Would be good for contests if you are focusing on another sim in your storyline.

From the maker of the little black box we all know and love, I present to you...

Child Animation Hack v1

Finally, a hack for children!

This hack is for the movie director or storyteller who would like more control over their child actors. This animations available on this hack are mainly standing one. A hack with sitting animations with be available at a later time.

grr it requires for the eps I have except for 1 that I don't but still amazing!

[E'Claire]

Awesome! I'm having that!!

EDIT: Doesn't it say somewhere in the description that it'll work even if you don't have all the EP's? I think you just won't be able to use the animations that come with the EP's you don't have

sounds cool

[SynapticSim]

Before I post in the WCIF? thread, I thought I'd ask the experts here.

Do any of y'all know of a hack that allows you to use the animations from the diving board without actually having to be in swimwear?  I know that the Season's object added the options for the slide, but I don't think I've seen one for the diving board.  Some of those animations would be perfect for my line of pic taking.

SynapticSim, I don't know of such an object, perhaps aikea_guinea's paintings have the animations?
Sometimes you have to go the hard way, I mean actually putting the sim to perform the animation. If you want your sim to wear their everyday clothes while they dive, pause the game at the right moment and use the Insimenator's Wardrobe Adjuster to dress them in everyday.
It may prove to be a b...h because if you take out your sim from the pool they will most likely vanish underground, so you might want to put them on an upper floor... dunno if it will help

Hope that helps

EDIT: I've just realized that I actually have pics taken with this method, so here you go:

Or you could go into Bodyshop and enable the outfit you want them to wear as "swimwear"

Decorgal has a new Child animation box.  :smile bi:
