Credits List
Hello! I find myself using a lot of things over and over in my previews and screenshots so I thought it was about time I do a quick credits run down. (And I'm sure I'm leaving someone out, because I have too big of a downloads folder to remember everyone.)
Build Mode: (Particularly walls and floors)
That's all I can think of for now. Thanks to everyone!
Feel free to post WCIF here, or in the specific post. (I've tried just using my things in previews, but it's so tricky, so I at least want everyone to be properly credited.)
New story on the horizon!
I have been working diligently on a new story but wasn't sure about how people would respond so I posted it over on the offical sims 3 site, I know that alot of people don't read stories over there with all the swamping of crazy storyboards, but it has gone pretty well over there so far, and I got a generally great response with my previous story, so I am going to post it here as well. I will give you a little teaser.
After Dark
by NyGirl08
Synopsis
Eva Matthews is an accomplished romance and dating columnist, who herself is having trouble finding a man worthy of her standards when she turns to an online dating site in hopes of finding that perfect man without realizing the potential dangers that could come from her endeavors.

“And so the hunt begins…around the time the sun goes down and the bright lights of the city come alive. Pedestrians flood the city streets in their little black dresses adorned with flashy jewelry, their hair done up so perfectly that there isn’t a strand out of place, their fingernails neatly manicured, not a single thing out of place. So what are they hunting for? Love? Romance? A late night fling?” I began to type out onto a fresh document on my computer.
I write a romance and dating column for Bridgeport’s premier night life magazine “After Dark”. And I have to admit I kind of love my job, since it consists of pretty much going out every night and observing peoples romantic behaviors, sometimes I indulge myself in talking to them, and asking them questions, then turning what I learned and observed that night in to something people can relate to when they read my column. This week’s article entitled “The Hunt” focuses on those who go out pursuing romantic encounters."
Under the same moon - 5
Hi everybody! The last time I wrote something in my blog was to complain that we had to wait a long time to see our stories published. Now I was lucky enough to have part 5 of my story published on October, 32 and only after having submitted it for some hours. I should say the positive things as well :D
New creations update :)
Hi all,
Well I am still stuck in the Uk at the moment, so I am having to make do with my notebook. I haven't created/played The Sims for more than 3 weeks now and it is really getting me down. My notebook has no disk drive.I have recieved my Fast lane and my Late Night and I cannot try them out yet...Bah!!!
My PC is over in Italy. But as soon as I can get back, I can start creating again.
In the meantime, I wanted to give you all a little glimpse of what you have to come.
First up, we have the 'Belsim Torch' from Scarab Corp. I have adjusted it so it is much smaller. I have also messed around with the shape/pattern at the bottom. I thought it would look great to have some more variations for lighting in the temples or tombs that any of you may build. It would also look great in an Egyptian themed house either as indoor or outdoor lighting.
Next, we have the 'Fountain of Flowers'. I really didn't like the shape or size of this, so I adjusted both. I think it looks a lot more pleasing to the eye now. I have also took out those silly flowers that stuck out of the top of the sunflowers, at a much higher height. I just didn't think they looked right. I think it is so much nicer with just the sunflowers.
So there you go, that is what will be coming soon. Plenty more in the pipeline too!
Bye for now!

I have been so busy, I haven't had time!
Time: One of the most relevent "things' in my life, which I don't seem to have enough of! Spring, Summer and Fall are such busy seasons for me. School activites, sports activites, family activities, taking care of my mother-in-law. So many things to do, and so little time. Little time for myself! Just when I think things have settled down, WHOOOOOSH. Off I go again! I am thankful for the winter months coming up. That is not to be confused with liking cold weather, it just means I will now have some time to myself! I get to play my Sims 3! Sadly, since I have had no time to play I still only have the base game. But with Christmas right around the corner, all of the EP and stuff packs are definately on my wish list! I have already told my husband: " Forget the jewlery, give me my Sims 3!!!!" I have already started Christmas shopping online, because it gives me more time at home and to myself! I cashed in my Kudos for a free subscription day, and went on a downloading frenzy and have begun playing again! I am astounded by the enormous amount of awesome talent from featured, select and other artists, and I have been having such a great time playing my game! AHHHH, peace and harmony have been restored in my household. That makes me a very happy lady!!
Puke anyone?
What is with the puking? Everywhere I go sims are violently puking glow-in-the-dark green puke. They'll even do it during a conversation. So Jim, how's that acting *SPEW* career? Oh, don't mind me. It's a condition I have. Here, let me wipe off your face, and shirt, and pants, and... shoes. I don't understand it. Some let it just dribble out of their mouths while some projectile vomit on everyone. Oddly enough other sims never notice. Is this a normal behavior in Bridgeport? Public display of nausea? A sim pukes then goes on their merry way. They don't seem sick. They just... puke. Noone pays it any attention nor cleans it up. It's really kind of a putoff when there are 3 sims in the vicinity of your fun spewing ectoplasmic residue. Most odd.
I played my to-be vampire sim last night and he finished the whole shabang in an impressive display of red fog and bat wings. Lovely. I took piccies but they're dark, as well as piccies of him doing his thang in the club on the counter, and various other vampire shots. They're all dark though so I need to lighten them before you could really see anything. Of course they're dark. Everything happens at night. Sheesh. Don't knock a girl for trying. Anyway, the vamp life seems fine. He sleeps in his normal bed as he has a small place right now with no room for a... coffin thingy. But he gets the slept like the dead moodlet when he wakes up. That made me giggle. I haven't delved too deeply into the vamp life as of yet. He did raid Mike's Cornerstore. The option was there so, you know, I just sort of... slipped and clicked on it. Something I thought might end badly was really a riot. While he was apparently acting like a child, riding his shopping cart at vampiric speed, and oggling the produce, I got a pop-up that said, Don't stare at me! Silly baby in a shopping cart... I almost peed my pants laughing. He did this at like 2 in the morning. What nutjob was there with a baby then? Anyway, he scored 5 plasma fruit from the... er... raid. And probably totalled a shopping cart. I got a lot of pop-up windows telling me of his activities. I also prowled around town looking for something to do, but the town was dead oddly enough. So I sent him to Smuggler's Cove. I had hoped to find a plasma fruit seed there as my other sim did one night. No seed but I got some rocks and junk. Apparently vampires are aware of the lameness of travel in Bridgeport because I told my guy to go to the bookstore next and he ran from Smuggler's Cove all the way there. It was so funny! He's got a motorcycle but didn't use it. He just ran, and ran, and ran. I think my vampire is a tad hyperactive. And horny. He hit it off pre-vamp with a cute blonde after completing an opportunity and he moved her in after he finished the creepshow transformation. And the man can not get enough of her. Jeez man! Down boy! Down! He even had two woohoo wants for her at the same time once. Yowzers! I think I have a hidden wild child in this sim. He's so different from my other one but doesn't really have any extreme traits to add to weird behavior. He just acts wild. I need to tweak her traits. She's got mainly useless ones. I hate useless traits. I want my sims to have personality, not be some vapid waste of oxygen. I mean really, some of those traits are pointless, useless, and add nothing of interest to the game. They just take up personality real estate on game generated sims so they really have no personality at all. The whole point is so sims act differently from each other and keep things interesting.
Ok, enough whining about game shortcomings. I might actually get around to doing that revamp of my Ayesleigh lot soon. I love Late Night and want to play, but now I need to make lots to fit the city life. Hmph. I'm getting the build bug again. I always do when we get something new and I get a rash from how irritating the stuff EA gives us is. Inefficiency and sims do not mix well. *cough* subway *cough* Whether heading across town or traversing a multi-story building you're in for lag not caused by your computer.
Oh! One more tidbit to giggle about. I hope this happens to other people or I'm going to start taking it personally. I'll send a sim out to some random bar/club/what not and get a pop-up stating this place is as hot as Connor Frio blah blah blah, or nothing is happeneing here, there must be a better place. So I pick another lot and then get a pop-up stating Oh yeah! This is where it's at! I enter and... noone is there. Not one sim. Not even a cricket chirping. WTH? Hotspot? I think not. What is the point of having bouncers if they also prevent ALL the other sims in the game from going anywhere as well? I know it's not fair to give mindless, lazy sims a free ride into a posh place but c'mon, we don't go out to these places to sit in a hot tub alone, drink alone, throw darts alone. Duh. So, I stick to the tried, but true, hotspot in town... loitering outside the cinema. It's so upscale! It's so happenin'! It's so elite! It's so... sidewalk. It's not about status, it's about fun. Go where the fun is, wherever that may be. It is a game afterall.
Downloading and installing?
Occasionally I get questions about how to install content for The Sims 3 and also occasionally I can't reach the page of someone who has this kind of doubt. For those I would like to say thank you for downloading my creations and also recomend them to check this link in order to get information about installing custom content:
Hugs to all! Sandra
Home To Roost & November Project!
Hey Guys!!
So my newest lot is uploaded, Home To Roost, and it's avaliable to download now! :D
This is absolutely the lot i'm most proud of so far! I did use a house plan for this but adjusted it to work with the build tools in-game. I seem to have my own style of decorating I think, it's very Brittish aha. I especially like the little 'Gnome Corner' its actually a little idea I took from DragonQueens Waterfall tutorial. It was more the placing of rocks that inspired me if i'm honest :D
I'm in a middle of a build at the moment which i'm spending less time on as i'm back to work now but i'm intending to take my time on it and get everything as perfect as I can so watch this space!
Hope you guys had a lovely halloween :)
xoxo
