Hi iCad. I have a morbid question. How do you deal with graves in your hood? In my game, I build a cemetery as a community lot and send graves there once the ghosts have spawned so that I can take my knowledge Sims there. But the ghosts are not usually very active and when they do come out they seem very mild. They don’t haunt, they don’t leave puddles etc. Am I doing something wrong? On a related note how do you fulfill your knowledge Sims various wants to meet the reaper?

dramallamadingdang: I use a gravekeeper in all my neighborhoods, basically an NPC that I create but never play. They live on an empty lot hidden somewhere on the map, and they own any cemeteries in the neighborhood. When a Sim dies, I leave the grave on whatever lot they died on until their ghost generates.

capitalco: I have these saved to PSD’s for all my images, so I can just drag and drop my edited images onto them and size them acordingly. These are the sizes that the tumblr dash seems to make images look the clearest, with the exception of the height of the 540′s. The height of the […]

Hi! I love your Strangetown, it’s fantastic!😍 I am currently working on a version of the PSP game on my game. Would you mind sharing some pictures of tour Deadtree lots? I’m finding them really difficult to recreate. So far I’ve done a cul-de-sac apartament lot for Paradise Place and the gas station, but Deadtree is just so frustrating!😫 Thank you so much! You have a lovely blog!💖

simlishnoir: chrisnewbie: You are the sweetest thing. *suddenly remembers that one U2 song* Anyway – I’d be happy to share what I’ve got for Deadtree. Full disclaimer: my Deadtree is no where near completed, but maybe (hopefully?) I can still provide some inspiration, or failing that at least point you to the blogs that inspire […]

a couple sim lifehacks (that i just realised not everyone knows)

asimplevampire: If you have an object that you can’t normally use the Apartment Life raise/lower tools with– you know, [ and ]– you can grab one of SilentLucidity’s OMSPs and stick that sucker on there. Here’s Aikeaguinea’s two-tile wall writing- normally not lowerable. Slap it on top of one of Silentlucidity’s OMSPs, and… …you can […]

Did you hold the Foxbush’s wedding on a community lot? If so, how’d you do it? I’ve always wanted to try a community lot wedding but have never been sure about the best way to go about it… :O

muupi: I did! It’s easy 🙂 Just don’t throw a wedding party or try and get everyone there by “outing” – take your household there and make the guests come to you! I think if you have all expansion packs then you can use the wedding arch on a community lot, but if you don’t […]

qwertysims: I feel like a lot of people don’t know how helpful the search function on sssvitlans can be for when people don’t take wcifs. Because it is so wonderfully organized, narrowing down cc to what you want can be really easy. Like let’s say you see a girl sim with maxis match, medium length […]

Still I like to contribute to your cause to ensure things are […]

University/Career stuff

dunne-ias: I decided that each of the premade universities only offered certain majors. I also decided that the universities weren’t equally easy to get into. I made a college application form in calc, because ias is nerd. According to my rules (this if for general gameplay, not story), the following majors belong to the following […]
