My PCās back and runs Sims just fine. Yay! (And I finally have my beloved spell check back!)
Sims = Fan fic?
mdpthatsme said: About the premades, I would think so.
primaverasims said: I would think so if itās the premades since you imagine them outside of canon. But if itās 100% original characters in a custom neighborhood (or emptied neighborhoods) I would categorize it as original fictionĀ
ejsims said: agree with everyone about the premades-technically, those stories are fanfic.
strangetomato said: I think itās similar to fanfiction, but not the same. What we are given with the premades are hints and clues to story and some character details that can be interpreted in endless ways. Itās more of a template for storytelling than a fiction work to transform, as in fanfic.
Hm, interesting point of views...I would agree thatĀ original characters arenāt fanfiction. And yeah, technicallyĀ posting about the premades is fan fiction- althoughĀ canon is much broader and it is more of a template than a given story.
katzengirl said: Yep, stories about the premades is fanfiction. :) Thereās even a category for the Sims on fanfiction.net though not many people have posted there.
Really? Wow. Thatās kinda weird. I suppose itās just text, too?
New graphics card
simlishnoir said: Nvidia GTX 750 is a good card that worked with TS2 and is quite decent for other games (maybe not the latest ones) as well. I personally use a GTX 1060 (after upgrading from the one mentioned before) and TS2 works for that as well.
ethanmcgregor said: I have Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti and TS2 runs great with it.
Thank you for your suggestions! The game actually runs well with the graphics card I managed to lend (although itās rather loud). I think Iāll look into the GTX 750, it sounds good and still cheap enough for a broke college student.
