Hey everyone,

 

In the next time I will complete the second part of my new story. I was very busy last time and hope that you will like my new part of the story.

 

Nice day, Guslucky!

 

PS : Do you like my decorated room? Thanks for feedback :)

 

Welcome!

Hi!

I'm new, mi Nickname is Eyrie. I luv the Sims 1, 2 and 3! I like this.

The Sims 3 in my first game, the characters are roommates, you can see photos of him. He was learning, so I took a little getting used to everything, as there are some differences between each version of the Sims.

The Sims I created first, he married twice (!), the first time was very rare, so not serious. Now, the only lives a Sims house, is divorced and raising triplets are all girls. Hahaha!

This is one of the babies, but you're older, they are learning to walk.


At first did not distinguish babys. Because they were all completely equal! Haha!

___________________________________________________

In my last move, NOW I created a new family: Father and son and roommate, the "Son" and "roommate", now they are "together" (!!!)

!!!

 

Good Bye!

Apology for my Absence

Hello All,

You may have noticed that I have not been creating much recently. This is for several reasons. Firstly, I have several important exams at the moment, so I am busy studying for them at the moment. They will be over in a few weeks though. Secondly, I have been working on a new World with the Create-A-World tool, and as I'm sure you can guess that takes a lot of time. It should be worth it when complete though! That however, is a long way off! :D

The Verde Family

Allthough Jean-Claude is the newest member of the Silver family, he is now married to the matriarch, Gertrude, so I'll talk about his family now.

The Verde family moved into town, led by their patriarch, Jacques Verde.  They came because Jacques' younger twin sister told him it was a lovely spot with friendly, tolerant people.  So, Jacques packed up his family and moved them from wherever they were (Canada or France, I'm thinking, or maybe New Orleans).  Still, the move was hard because it basically wiped out their available funds--moving six people into an unbuilt, unfurnished house isn't cheap, after all.  Despite that, they settled in and, after taking a few odd jobs just to get buy, finally settled into their chosen professions.

Jacques, who always possessed a touch of psychic ability, settled into the paranormal profession and soon rose up to the Exorcist level.  His wife, Adele, chose politics instead and is now a Senator.  She also happens to be friends with Gertrude Silver, and while she has some misgivings about her youngest son marrying a woman old enough to be his mother, she trusts Gertrude and has faith in her son's judgment.

Eldest son Francois, after a bit of floundering, settled down to business and excelled at it.  Now he's a CEO.  His wife, Antoinette, prefers working as little as possible, so she eventually settled into the science profession, and now as a Theorist only has to work 4 hours a day away from home.  They have one daughter, Cecile.  Second son Pierre, also after a bit of floundering, went into music and now works the hardest of the entire family, from 5 in the afternoon to 2 in the morning, as a Rock Star.  Fortunately, his wife Adrienne works similar hours (5 to 12) as a Fashion Columnist, so they at least leave for work together and can spend the day together free from the rest of the family, including their daughter Sabine.  Basically they see Sabine for maybe an hour in the afternoon when she comes home from school and before they leave for work.  If they're rested enough to wake up in the morning, they might get to see Sabine at breakfast.  Basically, the rest of the family raise Sabine.  Given that Pierre and Adrienne make the most, though, no one's complaining.

The Verdes, like the Silvers, are one of the larger families in Old Town in that they have a large number of blood relations spread throughout the neighborhood.  The Silvers seem to be the largest, but if you combine the Verdes with Jacques' sister--who happens to be connected with the Silvers through her daughter's marriage--the Verdes become the largest.  Of course, with Jacques' sister's granddaughter also being a Silver granddaughter, perhaps the three families are one?  That granddaughter, at least, has the largest number of blood connections to three different families.

Confusing?  You have no idea!

 

 

A Crazy Day

Okay, I've just spent roughly 12 hours trying to get a virus or a malware/spyware/adware thing removed from my computer.  I don't know what caused it or where I picked it up--heck, it might even have been from this site.  I hope not, though.  I really want new things for my Sims because--let's face it--after a while things start running together.  When I take my Sims downtown, I have to double-check to figure out which Sim is actually walking across the screen because, unfortunately, he or she happens to be wearing the same outfit as at least one or two other Sims.  At least this way I can get some variety going.  Same thing for the kids.  Although their faces and skin-tones may be different, some of their outfits are exactly alike because--among other things--I don't really like having the kids in dresses or suits from the early twentieth century.  They deserve to be in play clothes, free to run around, not worry about getting their clothes dirty (sorry, I was watching The Sound of Music while I waited for my virus scans to end).

Anyway, wherever the virus/whatever came from, it seems to be gone for now.  But I'm going to have to be a lot more careful now.  What a pain.  It could be worse, though:  it could have completely crashed my system, so I'll consider myself lucky for now.

Chapter 5: The Jade Princess

Hi Everyone

Just a quick note to let you know that Chapter 5 of The Jade Princess is out. You can find it here:

http://www.thesimsresource.com/stories/details/title/The%20Jade%20Princess%3A%20Chapter%2005/category/sims3-actionadventure/id/17212/

This is the last chapter in this particular story, but Veronika will re-appear in the future with further adventures.

I'd love to hear what you think so please drop me a comment if you have the time.

Enjoy!

Sarah Daae's Story

I have planned chapters four and five and trust me--you are going to love them! A new character is introduced (someone from The Phantom of the Opera), who changes Sarah's life.

I am also going to be bringing more "POTO" into it. How could you expect me not to, what with having Christine and Erik? But that will be in way later chapters.

I will stop here, because I don't want to reveal too much!

See ya!

WA Favorite Expansion Pack Ever

I have really enjoyed playing the World Adventures expansion.  This is my favorite expansion pack ever (even with the minor bugs I have from the latest patch......knew it was causing problems but couldn't stand it unless I patched my game).  I have played Sims 1 & 2 before and bought every expansion back for both of them.  I have enjoyed playing adventure and role playing games (Grim Fandango, Siberia 1 & 2, The Longest Journey, Morrowind, Oblivion, KOTOR 1 & 2) for many years.  This expansion adds both the adventure and role playing aspects to the Sims 3, which I really am enjoying.  And it doesn't scare me like many of the role playing games do.  :)

Tom Harper completed all the China adventures and was adventuring in France when I installed the latest patch.  France had no custom content so it worked fine but Tom's home base was in Riverview, and he can't go home.  So I created a new adventurer named after me with traits that I would like to have, but don't.  She's brave (I'm a big coward), athletic (I'm lazy), adventuresome (maybe I am that a very little bit), a genius (I'm not one of those either), and a photographer (I can take some okay pictures but don't get the camera out very often).  She does sing very badly though, but not quite as bad as I do.

I was playing the other night and Kathy (aforementioned adventurer) was exploring a tomb.  I saved my game and went to the kitchen to get a baked potato buttered up and ready to eat.  I brought my baked potato backed to the computer and adventurer Kathy decided she was hungry.  Out of everything available to her to eat in her inventory, she chose a potato.  :)  A few minutes later one of my dogs, Ruby, came into my office and laid down behind me to nap.  Adventurer Kathy was excavating a rubble pile and the 2nd thing she found was a ruby.  Pretty funny coincidences for me.  :lol:

My China vacation house is completed and has been 1st tested by Tom, now being tested by Kathy.  Hopefully I'll get it ready to upload to TSR soon.

 

 

 

Blogging

Yes Margo, I did it again. So I was actually upset with myself and I deleted my last post and I am going to try this again. I even put a sticky note on the bottom of my computer screen to remind myself. I am still getting used to blogging, but so far I like it. Anywho the post that I deleted was about a story idea that I had. I am trying a story about people who are the last humans on earth, I have a million ideas on where I am going to go with it. I also have some other ideas but I am not sure if any of them are going to hash out. Anywho thanks for reading.
