New Residents Index Coming Soon!

I'm doing it again! A full fleshed out Residents Index for all my sims of all my worlds!

On my old TS2 site I had a detailed and quite cool index of my residents, with info on their personality, careers, interests, lifeline and more. There was even a family tree making it easy to see their relations, and an easy way to switch to another sim's bio. You will find the old index here - some info seems to be broken, but click some links and you'll get the idea. Each sim even had their individual diary page!!!

For TS4 I will do it a bit more simple, like skipping the family tree. It's been too long since I programmed anything in Javascript, besides I play rather slowly so there wouldn't be that many generations to explore, anyway. I can't just transfer the old TS2 script, because TS4 sims have a different set of info that no longer match my old programming.

The main reason why I'm creating this index, is that in my community I often need a search tool to find certain sims. Say, who are single, YA and of a certain social class? Who works in the Business career and might be candidates for a new top job? Who would be candidates for a new council election? I do keep all the info in a spreadsheet, but it gets quite hard to find a group of sims based on specific data. I can scroll to find ideas, but not to see the bigger picture. Besides, it would be nice storing all residents' photos somewhere - and to share all this with you.

This new index might be up and running within a week, but it will probably take much longer to add all my residents - there are probably more than 250 of them including those who died already. I'll of course post again when it's due to take a look :)

A brand new Free Will Show episode!

Episode 4 is up! In the morning of their 4th day, Don must leave the house, and the remaining 5 contenders get a surprise regarding his negative score... He left them with no option to pay bills, so does it mean the water will be shut off? No power, no water, how nice is that in a house where everyone go by by free will? And how about the dog Emma who ran away... is she gone for good?

Today Sonia Smell is Sim in Focus. Like in every episode Sim in Focus will pick 3 alternative actions/events to be voted by you, and the option getting most votes will be executed the next morning. Vote by leaving a short comment under the video, one capial letter is enough! More info on the Youtube channel.

Voting is open for 7 days from release.

Enjoy!

As Sims Go By - The Colors of Showbiz (Episode 4)

Episode 4 of my Machinima series "As Sims Go By" is now airing on my Youtube channel! Fanny finally gets started farming, and Josue is unlucky as usual. And how about the mysterious group in that cellar, what are they up to this time? A little more romancing than usually, but also death...

I'd love to have more feedback, so whether you like it or not, don't hesitate dropping me a note :)

As Days Go By - Year 216 - Picture Thread

I intend to bring you a picture post every sim year to show what's going on in my game that counts 50 households. Right now I'm a bit behind with these picture posts, as playing the game and making the As Sims Go By series took all my time. It's currently year 218, so it's time to let you in on what happened in year 216. It's the year when fame was introduced, which still feels kinda new. Showbiz is also the main subject for the new ASGB episode that will air tomorrow!

The "As Days Go By" updates give you a chance to learn the small stories and destinies taking place outside the film series. Every now and then you might also find some ideas for your own game, but I'll not be very detailed in these posts. If you have any questions, feel free to comment, and I'll explain more thoroughly.

This time we'll stop by at each hood only once, meaning less jumping :)

Starting off with a general picture, although it's from Gloomy Garden of Gloomville. Each district (world) has built a tiny Speaker's Corner where locals can debate politics or simply state their view. On this picture the entire Region 12 Council is arguing :) The venue was adjusted afterwards. And yes, the council has a Group, making it easy to gather them, but it also helps when locking doors at the Council House.

The Free Will Show Ep3 - Who Will Leave?

So, there's finally a new episode from this show where 6 sims and 1 dog live in a house by free will. Previous episode gave a voting result and the event will be executed at 8 AM today. Don Trotter is Sim in Focus, and the sim with lowest score at end of episode, will be kicked out! Who will that be?

There is a new routine for the short list for voting. Sim in Focus no longer needs to have enough points to pay for the voting options. They will simply get a negative score if needed. But remember, another low score sim will be kicked out in episode 6!

Voting is open for 7 days from release.

Enjoy!

Penny, don't jump!

I normally spend weeks and months planning my videos, but the other day something weird and funny happened, and before I knew, I had filmed a very short video.

The first impression looks very dramatic, but then look inside - the truth is quite different :)



PS: More videos in production, "As Sims Go By" ep4, "Free Will Show" ep3 and a new "How I Play" will all be released during March!
