Ramble Waffle Ramble
Greetings people,
I just felt like rambling so what better place than a blog.
Now my mind has gone completely blank of things to ramble about....
Oh you would not beleive!! How many times I've written Chapter 5 for Escape from Paradise. Somehow every time I write it something happens. I wrote it in the sims game....the game crashed and I lost it. So I re-wrote it on tsr, but didn't realise that if you didn't attach a snapshot then you lose everything you write when you click save. So after a while, of the 'aarrghhh this is so annoying' factor I decided to re-write the chapter in my notebook...on real paper. My logic behind it was my notebook wouldn't crash, and how could you possibly go wrong with writing it on paper? Worst rhetorical question ever! I took my piece of paper and sat down on the computer to type it into tsr...with snapshots this time. But my sim game wasn't working so I couldn't get the snapshots. So I thought, it doesn't matter I'll come back after I've fixed the game. But then I thought well I might lose the bit of paper I wrote it on and thought I should type it into word and then I'll have 2 copies of it. So I did and I saved it. Then thinking I didn't need the piece of paper anymore I scrunched it up and chucked it to my dog. The chapter had caused me soo much time! and I was glad it was written and on the computer. BUT....I went on the computer the next day and the computer was spazzing out. I fixed it and went to retrieve my saved word document and couldn't find it anywhere. Because the computer was spazzing when I 'saved' it, it didn't save properly. So I lost the word document and my paper was now long gone. And that leaves me to where I am now. I'm rather frustrated with the story 'Escape from Paradise' so I really don't know when I'm going to have to patience to try and re-write the chapter again. But hopefully I'll be able to get it out soon. Fingers are crossed.
In the meantime between the other story and creating objects I do in my free time, I've started making a movie! Not a movie movie, but a short series of video clips from the sims 2. Which I shall eventually post up on youtube! TSR seriously needs to have videos on it. So people can publish sim movies! But trying to get myself familiar with the movie making world! Finding new buttons in the sims game that help....like when you're in camera man mode to mark different spots. So you can slide between positions easier....I forget what the button was. Damn...I've really forgotten.
I'm also trying to write a tutorial, for making stories with the sims 2. Tips and what not, also some basic stuff for noobs. So hopefully that'll be done soon too. And fingers crossed it'll be better than my last tutorial. But I did write that one when I was still learning the whole process, and now I have a much broader range of tips and what not.
Anyhoo, hope you all had a happy fathers day!
Adios xox
