I will return ....

Thanks @erplederp and @Juliette Tango. Love to see your pics too.

I'll keep browsing looking at everyone's pics. I went in game today and grabbed a few pics but will return with some new cc and pics soon, I will also look at tutorials to try and make new stuff I haven't made before and some new ideas for pics. Game is looking better now I can turn everything up to Ultra since I got a new graphics card.

 

Stay safe everyone

Now, Hawaii... mmmmm.

Aw, dude. Once I went to Hawaii, every other beach I’ve been to since has been subpar by comparison. Ya can’t beat the islands.

After Gemma started wearing a better hairstyle and more attractive clothes, she felt better about her appearance and was motivated to lose weight.  What weight remained seemed to be more attractively arranged, and even her face seemed to get cuter.

They went to the park to meet people- hopefully, guys their own age- and Gemma had no trouble hitting it off with a boy she thought was cute.  And Rebecca was unexpectedly asked to fool around by Sophia Bjergsen.  "Oh!  I've never... not with a girl... Well, first time for everything!"

 

 

 

Gemma's newfound success with the boys was indirectly responsible for Minerva's death.  A guy Rebecca had met in the magical realm dropped by, and Gemma immediately was hot for him.  They ended up in Gemma's room, and Minerva walked in on them.  Normally, no big deal, +1 Angry.  Except Minerva had just been trying to work out, and gotten Dangerously Tired.  41 stacks of Angry.  Her attempt to calm down at the mirror worked too slowly, and then Gemma's attempt to plead for her life failed.

 

 

Well... the girls now have extra motivation to finish their magical training.

Still, cool urn, isn't it?

 

It occurs to me that the house will now be haunted by a perpetually angry ghost.  Fun!

@Juliette Tango @Julie J @porkybork Pfft. You sun lovers. Until you've experienced a Scottish summer you don't know the meaning of cold! ?

[R-Lo]

A few more beach snaps ? lost my mind a bit while trying to do tattoos and experiments with other bits ?

 

[R-Lo]

Hi @Julie J I hope you have fun and thanks for the pics ? looking forward to seeing what your inspiration is next ?

I'm originally from the North East of England, I'm a Geordie so I know the meaning of cold lol although now I live in London ?

@R-Lo Thanks, hopefully I'll find some soon

 

 

 

[Nelandros]

@Julie J Everyone loves the Geordies! Used to work with a load of people from Sunderland. Proper class people man! ?

[Juliette Tango]

Was at a converance with a colleague who was from Newcastle upon Tyne. A Scottish fellow must have detected his accent, walked over and said "Aye, ye'd be a Geordie now, woudln't ye". I just about fell over.

Dammit Grandma, stop trying to work out!

Does anyone know of a way to stop elders from working out?  Besides elder-proofing the entire lot?  This time Minerva caught Tom Peeping looking in the window, so she had an embarrassed moodlet.  Next thing I know she's on the weight machine!  I made her stop, but it was too late, and before I could try to give her a potion or get to a mirror, she dropped dead of embarrassment.

Well, Gemma has aged up, Rebecca's got a week to go, and they'll be off to university.  Thankfully Minerva won't do crap like this when not active, and will live out her days normally.

 

I hate the new figure paintings from DU.  Gemma has maxed painting skill, and she draws that.

@all 

 

Take your needed creative breaks dear members! We don't forget you anyway! Your stories, small scenes and pics, performances of your Sims are much too amusing for that. Aaaand: Don't forget to play non-adult too. The "normal Simslife" always brings us new ideas for and with our couples, families, eternal singles. As my hairy is everywhere as an estate agent, Don Lothario is known to finally want to pursue his cop career, although the ladies like to put a spanner in the works - wasn't he always a victim of his instincts ?!

 

 

Sassone, on the other hand, works in Sulani in the environmental sector, but at the auxiliary worker level - as a "waste disposal company". His young lover Mike also wants to take up this profession.

 

 

 

Sassone is strictly against it because the two of them are always extremely scarce with Simelons and Mike is too talented and young to clean the beach of garbage for a handful of Simelons, write short stories and poems about Sulani. He takes advantage of the fact that he is Mike's great love and had an idea.

 

 

If he makes an application to Mike ... on the condition that Mike goes to college...

Windows 10 update this week ruined my ability to drag and drop files. Sooo frustrating. I did what the article in the link suggested, and all is cool once again. Hope it helps!

Like all of us (hopefully), Sam & Ray are staying at home, practicing social distancing, and loving each other. Their hair has grown a bit, as they can't visit the hairdresser. I'm personally liking their new looks ?

 

[snowdog04]

I wonder if longer hair will remain popular after all this is over?  Millions of people realizing, "I kind of like it like this, just a little straightening, keep the length..."

Would be nice, as I like longer hair on guys. Saw an article earlier this week suggesting that men in the US are going back to buzzcuts (self-inflicted) due to the lockdown. I sure hope this doesn't extend to women ?:

 

[erplederp]

@R-Lo I see you did make some new floral tattoos, good job! ?

@Juliette Tango Sam looks so youthul with the new long hairstyle!

I think the look just needs more motor oil. ?

There's a new D.Va CC set available on TSR (thanks for the link, Juliette!) and because I happen to have the sim, I made a couple of quick pics with it. The set looks mostly pretty neat and comes with the "tactical" headphones too. ?

Oh my goddess! ? The resemblance is uncanny!

Well, in WW we have cum layers, sweat layers... could motor oil layers be next? "Lemme just slide out from under this truck, babe, and we'll have real dirty sex".

Guys with longer hairstyles.... mmmmhmmm agreeeee! Ahem, and what about wet T contests at the car wash? ?

Poor Granny! Poor family! Poor Snowdog!

Last night my beloved Tina Peeping was caught at Dons window... her last minutes dawned... the reaper... had to exit the game without saving.

No book of life... tragic moments

 

 

Don´t give up hope... there are some funny methods to rescue sims

I madeover 2 of the 3 pre-made sages for RoM.
 

Spoiler

 

L. Faba, Sage of Mischief Magic:

Before:

 

After:

 

Morgyn Ember, Sage of Untamed Magic:

Before:

 

After:

 

 

 

I didn't realize until after I finished these two that there was a big fuss over the sages' appearances in RoM. Mainly, that they – except for Morgyn – don't look anything like the sims featured in the trailer.

 

Not only that, but I noticed that a lot of people have remade the trio to look more like their trailer versions. I'm not about to go back and redo L. Faba because I don't fucking feel like it like how she came out, but I'm not sure how I should makeover Simeon Silversweater. Like, should I make him look more like his trailer version, or should I just prettify his released version? Help me, internet people!

 

Also, L. Faba's name is derived from the character Elphaba from the musical production "Wicked." Since I like this fact, I will not change her first name to "Leah" as I originally planned while redoing her.

 

Also pt. 2, it is believed within the Sims community that Morgyn Ember is an FTM transperson. He has a male figure, but is sterile and infertile and does not pee standing up (this translates to "has no penis" when you have WickedWhims installed). So if you were looking for a trans icon in your game, there ya go. If not, idk just go into CAS and give him a dick, idgaf. 

 

Anyway, stay home, stay safe, stay healthy, wash your hands, and all that other shit. If that last line sounded kinda mean, I'm sorry, I'm just very tired lol.

Mr. Sandman bring him a dream.... ?

[erplederp]

@porkybork The in-game versions of Faba and Simeon look kind of sad, but Morgyn is alright. Not sure why they didn't go with the trailer versions for all of the sims, especially since all three were well-designed (I don't own the pack so I missed the controversy).

 

Faba and Morgyn remade by you look fabulous. ? The concept behind Simeon's look in the trailer is solid, with the long graying hair, beard, thick eyebrows and dark eyes - I'd use that as the starting point if I were you.

[snowdog04]

The explanation offered for the totally different sages in the trailer vs in game, is that the trailer is a sort of prequel.  Morgyn is the main character, just learning magic, and the 3 sages are the ones who he learned from.  The gallery does have the 3 Maxis made original sages available.

 

I especially like your remade L. Faba though!

 

I found a player made, completely new Sage of Untamed, and for whatever reason, they also made him a cross-dressing eunuch.

 

Edit:  The sage who is Simeon's counterpart from the trailer is named Ethren Reyes.

As spellcasters, Gemma and Rebecca have had no difficulty bringing Minerva back, it's just a spell.  I locked the door to the room where the workout equipment was, and set Minerva to never transportalate.  Gemma and Rebecca have now finally gone off to university, so Minerva won't do stuff like that when inactive.

Looking at that photo, looks like one helluva traffic jam when leaving the event!

Or just make them immortal in the game options. Sam, Ray, Dan, Elara - they won't age a day!
