Lodane's Simblr

my annual gift to myself is typing in all caps all day, but i'll bypass that for the moment.

look y'all, i am going to make more fleshed out posts for this stuff, and this post will redirect to them in the future, but i wanted to get it out. i've been working on this (and some other) stuff for the past 2+ weeks solid.

first, i have 3 monique'd ATMs… the only three that i know of. with every improvement i could make possible (for now). http://simfileshare.net/folder/262970/

and i have a custom (maxis-style) food stand, sorta. i mean, it IS a custom food stand, but it's a prototype for a template i'm working on. nope, i'm gonna make them compatible w/ jonasn's food stand improvements before i release them.

OKAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME! LOL

I WILL FINISH TYPING UP THE PROPER POSTS WITH ALL THE IMAGES, ETC.

To kick off the month, I deep dive into the only Black man (playable) in Pleasantview: Darren Dreamer’s Hidden Story👇🏾📺🕺🏾✨

Today on "Tea fixes random crap that annoys her":

I can't live without the Rugs off grid mod by @hugelunatic but it always annoys me when I'm playing and I cannot click on the ground where a rug is to tell my sim to "go here". So. I made a mod to give all rugs (yes all*) a "Go here" interaction same as the floor. Only "Go here", no run or teleport or whatever else, but it will suit me.

Techy details under the cut, but if you wanna just download this,

Here you go!

fixed it!

I've finished setting up a way to revive the GUID database, albeit not an automatic one, it is low-key, but rather simple. Instructions are on the pinned post. [It's a Dreamwidth community, basically one webpage where people can dump their GUID info, straight from Excel or a list].

It is searchable with multi search add-ons for browser. Search for multiple entries in one go.

Avoid conflicts with originally registered GUIDs (Not foolproof; assuming GUIDs where assigned in a certain way).

Avoid conflicts with new random GUIDs (that are in the DB).

Creators are indexed - see if your favorite active creators are on there.

Everyone can join, but only members can post. Happy Simming! https://sims2-guid-database.dreamwidth.org/ Example:

Hi!

So first of all: There is a reason we have a standby list (RAM). Programs save data there that they do not currently need but may likely need at a later time.

you were all so scared of corruption yet you were deleting game data while you played

if you can't get a modern video card to handle a game from y2k and you're reaching for solutions like this, please...

...at some point y'all are startin' to look like mr. bean driving his car from the armchair on the roof bc his car's so full of shit he can't even fit in there anymore.

and you don't have to marry linux. you can have a partition even on a removable drive, so stop being afraid of linux... and, yeah 85% of people talking about linux online are massive dickholes that wanna lord information over you and be awful bc you don't already know... but, y'all have been downloading shit from pescado's racist ass this whole time, soooooooooooooooooo if you can make it here (the online sims CC community) you can make it anywhere, kid.

And it uses these calculators:

AORTiCSims'

BellaDovah's

Delijume-Sims'

PleasantSims'

Simgigglegirl's

simmingelitist's

Sophie the Puffin's

If there's any others let me know, I'll add them!

Published: 3-2-2024 | Updated: N/A SUMMARY I try to reuse the original collection file for all trait-related items. Here is a running list of everything that it includes. Traits are organized into groups based on their game of origin and style. In each group, they are arranged in alphabetical order by their original name – keep that in mind if you use renamed or replacement items. Example: If you replaced kleptomaniac with swiper (Veronavillequiltingbee), it will show up with other traits that start with the letter K, not S. RECENT ADDITIONS: Aromantic, asexual, avatar/bending traits, elf, fairy, ghost, ghost rider, new and bonus traits from atomtanned, omegaverse, sunlight immunity, and more!
