With 25 days left on the bar, my second Sims 4 guinea pig Jefani has finally completed her second aspiration!  At this point I don’t think we’re fitting any more in, but let’s just say that she has a strong desire to go camping all the time now. ;D

I see.  As annoying as that must be, that’s still interesting to learn. 

You might want to ask about that in the Tech thread, a Guru, usually Eugi, checks in to answer questions.

simdoughnut said: “I’ve found that using screen shots from your game, and then creating logos and text to go over them results in a really nice billboard.  Now if I can figure out how to get my recolored food stalls to actually sell food :)” 

Yeah I saw you were having trouble with that.  =/

Are you making new stand-alone stalls and recoloring them, or making default replacements? 

*Maybe now I can actually get some use out of Andrew’s pose Player.  I’ve had the thing in my Mods folder forever, billboards sound like a good reason to dust it off… (strokes non-existant lady beard in thought)

simdoughnut said: “Yeah, both billboard meshes were done really well. I’ve been having a lot of fun making my own billboards in S4S.  :)” 

Haha, that’s why I made it a package!  I looked through them and aside from the fancy render style they seemed simple enough, so I saved it for later. ;D  

I was fiddling around in San Myshuno and wanted a better look at some of the billboards, so I opened one up in S4S and checked out the textures…  These are pretty cool!  I’m going to have to look up more often.

Hahahaha!  She loves him, and likes the twins, but I feel like the tables have turned here; she’s the long-suffering girlfriend whose boyfriend gets pregnant at the drop of a hat. XD 

The first time around I had alien pregnancy chances set to 50/50; when he came back with twins I dropped it to around 30%.  But I guess he should have the Fertile trait because his success rate is as high as his mom’s, lol! 

Selene: “So when do we get to meet this ‘new little brother or sister?’  What will it look like?  Can we play with it?” 

Corbin: “Any day now really.  And if it looks anything like you two, slimy and blue!” 

Selene: “I’m not slimy!  I’m very clean and I always smell good!” 

Corbin: “Not when you first came out.”  He grinned and gave her a hug.  “Go get ready for school kiddo, and maybe we’ll get to meet him or her tonight.”

Early the next morning…

WHOOPS, looks like we won’t make it to the hospital this time! 

Corbin: “So I’ve got some Big News for you.  I was abducted again last night, after you and the kids were in bed.” 

Alice: “Oh no!  Is that why you came  to bed late?  Are you okay?” 

Corbin: “I don’t know.  I mean I feel fine, I was dizzy when they dropped me, but the thing is… my belly started glowing again.” 

Alice: “Oh!  Oh.  Another one?  That’s… great babe.”
