I did buy it as I use it often enough that to me it was worth the $37 .. but I get not everyone can (or want) to do that


Thanks. I use the in game camera. I have to check out my specs .., they are usually better.

Fraps sound alright! I have other programs (like paint.net) that easily convert formats.

If you use Windows 10 or 11, you can take pictures with the Windows button + Printscreen, and the pics save in a folder on your computer.

I use Gadwin Printscreen (the free one). It seems Gadwin makes larger sized pictures (in kb), so I'm not quite sure if there's a difference in quality (did an accidental test recently where both of them had saved the same pictures, and Gadwin's pics were larger, but couldn't see a difference in the pictures). I tend to use the Windows method for random screenshots, and Gadwin for ingame ones, just in case.

Not sure how they work with fullscreen (I've had issues with that before) - I use the game in windowed.

It was suggested that policeman Dorian swiped the TV from lockup and that's how he was able to "afford" such a nice gift. That made me laugh so I said I'd check his personality when I next viewed him. Well I just played the Goth Manor and Cassandra asked Dorian to move in. Seems he has an interest in crime, but he also rolled the want to get a job in the Intelligence field. So maybe instead of lockup he got it from when they sell off confiscated items. He didn't move in with a lot of money so we'll see where this goes.

Since we've been kinda discussing Don, here's what happened to him recently in my neighborhood. As to who set the fire, I'm afraid that will remain an unsolved mystery.

So, I decided to allow one of my sims to go on a first date with another sim who asked her out. What's the worst that could happen? I thought.

About halfway through the date, the dude autonomously proposed to her and she autonomously accepted! What the heck man, that wasn't my plan for her.

Decided to roll with it anyway, what is done is what is done. She's stuck with her choice for now.

Looks like his burning desire got the better of him.

Daniel greeted passerbyer Marissa Barrett and the two started tossin around a football..

MarySue and Daniel split when she caught him with Kaylynn and Daniel moved in with Kay .. shortly after Daniel moved out both ladies had a belly pop .. when MarySue walks by (and doesn't look like she's gonna kick over the trashcan or steal the newspaper) Kaylynn goes out to greet her .. see if they can put the past in the past ... and then they both swoon over him... geez ladies is he really all that?

So I went with Lynda .. a bit of both their names .. but then still different enough that she can make it her own

While they may never be best friends, they seem to have at least put the past in the past .. and not any too soon .. the next day Kaylynn gave birth ... another red headed green eyed daughter for Daniel ... so now what to name her .. tryin to decide if I wanna name her after Daniel, Kaylynn, both of them, or neither of them .. here are some ideas .. Danilynn, Kayiel, Daylyn, Lynda, KayDee...

I need some opinions .. 1st off I do play with ACR, Inteen and inteens flavor paks of risky runaway and risky sneak out. That bein said, I do however have some rules for my teens - they can't get a job, have a 1st kiss, or date until they reach 10 days left to adult. For me this puts them at roughly 14 to 15.

Angela and Lilith Pleasant are 6 days from adult so by my age list that makes them 16. So last night both Angela and Lilith Pleasant had a want to sneak out and I let them. They both have jobs so I was lookin to see what skills they needed for next promo. And that's when I see that 1 of them no longer has the school tab .. which means .. 1 of them got pregnant when they snuck out.

So she hasn't started to show or given any signs, I only know because of the change in tabs. So, now I'm in a quandary of which way to go with this ... so there is time (unless she has a miscarriage), but as her needs are not in desperation I don't see that happenin

So, if you were me .. how would you proceed? And PLEASE .. no comments sayin .. well I don't play with inteen or allow my teens to get pregnant .. or any other negative comment relating to such .. thanks

Oh yeah, and Mary Sue gave birth to Jefferson Daniel, JD the day before so the girls now have a baby brother and half sister. :P

Which one is it? I would definitely run with this- the sims had a want to sneak out, and unexpected mothers can often be good mothers. Besides, my main man @AndrewGloria always says 'every sim has a right to life', and I like that. This kid could be a great character in your hood!

I will choose a path that's clear- I will choose free will

So I'm still not sure which direction it's gonna go .. but here's where we're at for now as this round at the Pleasant home is done
Angela had a want to sneak out with her cousin Lucy and Lilith had a want to sneak out .. the the pregnant sister is Lilith with Dirk bein the daddy ... and she had her 1st bump and yes MarySue was livid .. and not just with Lilith, but Dirk too .. and lastly .. baby JD aged to toddler
(I forgot to mention I also have Chris Hatch's pregnancy relationship mod which is why MarySue is furious)

How did you get the sneak out cars to wait? They always drive off before my sim gets to them, it's within like 10 sim minutes or so usually and they're gone. Even when they have permission!

(Probably another bug in my game? )
