Posted by BlackGarden on Oct 21, 2009• Why I've Been So Quiet

(Short answer: computer issues, back in a week or so I hope!)

First and foremost I want to thank everyone who's ever downloaded anything I've made here at TSR, it's a huge boost to see my download numbers go above 1 million!

Secondly, I want to apologise for being so quiet (it's unusual, I know!) and not:

a) uploading any new parts to my story; or

b) uploading any new creations.

Unfortunately I've been having rotten computer trouble. I can launch my Sims 3 game for long enough to see if something I've made is working correctly, but not long enough to get any decent screenshots. My little laptop can't handle it and it just overheats. Obviously playing for long enough to get screenshots for my story is just out of the question, even though I've got about 3 parts ahead of where I am now actually written.

Add to this that objects in the Workshop are in beta, and my laundry room set is being held back by a little bug right now. I have, however, created the meshes and textures for several items in the set, and I'm continuing to work on them. As soon as I have a computer that will play TS3 without overheating so I can test adequately and take screenshots I hope I'll be able to release something.

And that computer is, in theory on its way. It's very theoretical right now because according to my order status it's not been built yet, and the parts haven't even been picked. But hopefully in about a week or so I will receive a new high end gaming computer. I'll keep you posted :)

Hi there Heather, I was wondering what happened to you.  When I 1st read this post I thought you were about to say that you were leaving TSR .  I always enjoyed your Sims2 creations, especially all the console sets that you created.  Have you thought about creating any for Sims3 in the near future?  That is when you get your brand new shiny computer.  Oh how I envy you now, I've been wanting a new one for some time now.  Have fun with the new computer!  Looking forward to your new Sims3 stuff.  Take care,    Diana

Hope you're sorted soon, I know how annoying it is to have no PC as my motherboard broke about 2 months ago. I bought a new one in the end even though the old one was in warranty, and will send my old one back under the warranty when I get around to it and probably sell it, but I was impatient to get my pc running again haha! xx
