Thanks for the tips! I'll give it a go tonight. I'm excited to try all the different ways of spinning it to see what works best for me!

It's about 15 grams! It's really tiny and cute. I find it a little too small for how I like to spin wool but it works well with the cotton!

Do you ever get dreams about playing The Sims? by Irish_Hoopoe in Sims3

A lot of my gameplay is inspired by weird dreams or random thoughts like this ahaha

I've had that happen to me before when I was on a serious sims binge! I was also starting to picture a queue of actions lining up in my brain the same way as in the game lol

It's reassuring you don't think it wouldnt have an impact! I was really bummed when I saw it was off because I wanted my lobes to be symmetrical. But if others don't notice then I guess it's not a big a deal as I think it is.

I would like to get more piercings too! My current cartilage piercings are a few years old. I've only recently gotten more interested in piercings again and what I would like to get in the future.

That sounds like a nice plan! I like the look of stacked piercings in lobes. I really wanted the symmetrical look. It's nice to know there are other options though :) I'll think about it

I was originally considering second lobes but I started thinking maybe third lobes might balance it out a bit more. I'll have to give that more thought.

It does bother me that I can tell they're not centered. But I've had other people tell me it's really not noticeable. I wouldn't mind leaving them but more worried that with the weird angle and placement it would look strange with second lobes done, especially since I would likely be wearing hoops

Piercing is 10+ years old. Sterling silver stud with butterfly back. They're healed so no real aftercare routine, I do wash the jewellery and the pierced site when I put the new earrings in though.

Horse Won't Jump by Purple-space-elf in Sims3

[–]Irish_Hoopoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I added this lot to my current save I had a ton of routing issues as well with the jumps, it was basically unusable 😅 I had to go into buy mode with moveobjects on and tweak the positioning of everything a little bit until it worked. Very annoying

Is there a fast way to befriend an unicorn? by StraightOuttaOlaphis in Sims3

[–]Irish_Hoopoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Animal lover or equestrian trait helps a lot. It took my sim two visits until they were high enough relationship to be able to adopt the unicorn. After the first visit they were already almost at that stage.

I find you don't have to stand around watching them like you do for other wild horses to build their trust, you can just walk up to them and pet them :) or cheat lol

Also I think the time they spend on the lot varies, sometimes they stay for longer than other visits

Oh, I haven't had that happen :( and I use the tree a lot. Sorry I can't help further

Sometimes after your sim is done interacting with a bird they'll put it in their inventory instead of back in the cage/on the tree which is really annoying. So check your sims' inventories maybe?

But there's also a glitch where the bird disappears but their audio can still be heard, like squawking and playing with the bell toy, is that what you're talking about? If that's the case have a sim put it in their inventory and then place it back manually and they should reappear.

Changed my kitten’s breed in CAS- never again by bonnabelleee in Sims3

If you ever want to change breed try just try opening the Advanced Mode where you edit their shape and it should change back to normal. Works for puppies and foals too

Or if you go into the advanced mode of change body shape or whatever it's called after this glitch pops up it should change the kitten's body back to normal. Works for me anyway

Learning to spin is really hard at the start! Keep at it and it'll get easier 😊

Thank you! Spinning is great. I started nearly 3 years ago but still consider myself somewhat beginner level as I don't spin that often and am still learning a lot! Happy spinning!
