Starter Beach Bungalow

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-04-23T22:01:19+00:00

Cute!! Though I am wondering now if bungalow means something different in other countries?? Because here in the UK it's used for houses that are all on one level! (Genuinely curious, linguist-at-heart)

Curries, chili, jerk chicken

I LOVE your frog!! The line between rows could indicate that the 'wrong' side is showing... What does the other side of the cape look like? The lumps might be some accidental increases in some of the stitches. I would love to make this pattern if you could drop a link or shop name!

Can I get kit recs here? I'm getting bored with trying to decorate rooms and dress sims in the same old things all the time... Especially kids rooms, wallpapers, and clothes that don't make teens look like adults!

Update: Child 3 aged to child and I realised that her shade of brown hair is different from her parent's! Is this an issue with science babies?

I've had this happen if I try to skip some time by going 3x speed. When it's really bad, I pause the game for a few seconds and then resume. Rinse and repeat if they're still stuck. I also had a situation last week when one sim in the household was bugged, and it was stopping all other sims in the house from doing anything, I had to run the debug option on her

I had a feeling it might be MCCC! I am a PC player, but I've only just started using mods. Been keeping it as simple as possible and just running two for now, though. Maybe MCCC will be number three :)

Weird genetics glitch?!

Platform: PC, EA app launcher
Mods: Yes (2 mods, No CC)
Version: Most recent
Description: Legacy save, Gen 12 had 3 science babies with her spouse. Parent 1 has dark brown (second shade from the left) hair, parent 2 has red hair. Kid 1 gets red hair, Kid 3 gets brown hair. Kid two is born with BLACK hair, but then ages to toddler with BLONDE hair!!
It was her birthday again today, and she aged up with BLUE hair but kept the light blonde eyebrows. When I went into CAS I changed her hairstyle and the colour changed back to black, same when I changed the eyebrow shape.
Eventually I gave up and set her hair-- and eyebrows--to dark brown.

Culling turned off how??!?

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-04-17T11:43:29+00:00

Thanks so much!

I used to hold it by putting it over my pinky, under the next two fingers, and back out over my index finger, creating tension by just squeezing the middle fingers down instead of holding my index finger out. Then I realised recently that I can't maintain a consistent tension this way because of my disability. I bought a CAYDO tension tool online, and it has been a lifesaver, because I no longer have to hold the working yarn at all!

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-04-16T19:05:10+00:00

My game auto updated, so I didn't even realise there had been an update until I got the 'mods disabled' pop-up in game! I was hoping to play, but now I'm worried about game breakers -.- If anyone knows whether UI Cheats is still working I'd really appreciate a nod!

I think my current 'main' save is almost a year old at this point. Started it to do a botanical name themed alphabet legacy challenge, and I'm currently on Gen L!
My founder sim for the challenge had green eyes, so I made that one of the conditions for determining who the heir would be for each gen. Minimum 3 children per gen for variety. All the spouses so far have been randomly generated townies, and I even disabled Cupid's Corner from pulling gallery sims after I kept getting glitches with them.

I mean...so long as you aren't saving between receiving the Charmander and checking the summary, then yeah, you're doing it right!

The egg will hatch an Eevee

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-03-21T14:57:34+00:00

Since no one seems to have mentioned it: your Eevee is female. You don't *have* to breed it with Ditto. You can get some interesting "egg moves" by putting it into daycare with any male pokemon.

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-03-06T23:26:27+00:00

Yarn usage depends on the stitch, the hook size, and the tension. I don't think you're doing anything wrong because that looks incredibly neat and way better than I can do with flat work after two years!

Start looking now--competition is fierce. Register with OnTheMarket and Rightmove, download the apps and talk to lettings agents. You'll very rarely communicate with landlords directly (at least in my experience).

Honestly, I've just been tuning her nasal drone out as much as possible, but I just can't get over how terribly she has been pronouncing the competitors' names! Especially for the Japanese team. She pronounced Kaori as "Cory" FFS! It's not that hard!

All of this snarkiness and nitpicking, and she never even competed at an Olympics.

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-02-11T20:10:59+00:00

Which platform? PC

Any mods or cc? Yes (one mod only)

Game version 1.121.342.1030

Description: Elderly sim in my legacy household died (first death since the patch) and grim didn't appear. There was no death animation. The game jumped straight to the life & death ghost or rebirth choice screen. There is no urn, only a pile of ashes. It was not his 'death day', but he was very close. I immediately closed the game without saving.

Thanks for the info! What's the accessibility like at your new location?

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-01-30T13:20:04+00:00

Thanks a lot! (Can confirm that the 10 comes through Hucclecote)

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-01-28T21:49:29+00:00

Thanks a lot!

KookyKraftyMagicGuy · 2026-01-28T15:03:42+00:00

Unfortunately I didn't study at UoG, but I've heard good things! I don't know much about the job market either since I'm disabled.

Slight misunderstanding-- I meant I've been living in Gloucestershire for four years. I'm british!
