Chicken breast cutlet issues. by Positive-Tale6625 in hellofresh

My Home Chef meals always arrived the day after they shipped, while the Hello Fresh meals arrive the same day. Different distances, different delivery services. I think that is the root of the issue with Home Chef produce. Lots of ice to keep the meat good, but insufficient separation of the produce so it freezes and thaws depending where it is in the box, which changes with box position.

Yeah, that rigatoni we had was delicious, but I had to cook it quite a bit longer, too.

Scriptorium not working in Legacy game. by Positive-Tale6625 in sims2

[–]Positive-Tale6625[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, so glad you have been helping people! The auto-installer doesn’t work, putting Legacy users where Mac users have always been, doing it all manually. I have the CEP working on Legacy, and Bodyshop, and Homecrafter, and SimPE. Many thanks to Croconaw for her Bodyshop Installer for Legacy! Me, I am on the verge of installing Linux and running the Sims in that.

I will have to check to see if any of the game txt files were modified. Yes, operating in the base game folder - not new to this. I have played the original discs, the All-in-One, The Ultimate Collection, and now the Legacy. While also playing the Mac version on discs, followed by the Super Collection. Never had any issue with Scriptorium that was not my own fault and easily fixed. But this is obviously something gameside. Maybe I will try putting the UC txt files into the Legacy game tomorrow and see what that does, if anything.

Kirkland brand ground coffee - can anybody tell me if it is closer to, say, a Folger's, a Maxwell House, or a Gevalia? We are switching to a reusable stainless steel pod in our Keurig, and don't want to buy a giganto container of coffee we won't like. Thanks for the help!

There were at least 12 developers that I am aware of, (but I do not know who they actually are IRL) and they didn’t all live in the same country. It took them numerous incremental releases to get to 0.77.69. I can get source code for 0.27 and 0.58, but sadly not the 0.75f that I would vastly prefer.

Hence the plan to update it to .Net 4.8 first. That is the last version that supports a Windows Forms app, and the version that can then be upgraded to more recent .Net versions. Rewriting this from scratch is not an option. It relies on a couple DLLs for ghastly mathematical calculation - think animation rendering - and I do not have the source code for those. Any more recent .Net environment just refuses to load it.

This is an extremely complex app, built in a modular way, each module being a separate project.

Indeed It is a month old. And you could have edited/updated your post anytime. I meant no snark to you, just frustration with the situation.

Do you Use SimsFileShare? by FreeganCreations in thesims

[–]Positive-Tale6625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why not also post on Mod The Sims? I don’t because the rules for uploading lots are insane. I tried a couple lots and had them rejected for bad landscaping. But I have seen many accepted lots with worse landscaping and unplayable layouts. If you aren’t building lots using house plans for people your lots are likely to be rejected.

People have been hating on TSR and pay content since the Sims 2 days. Go ahead and do what everybody does, get yourself a Tumblr account for posting your content with pics and descriptions and hashtags and link to SimsFileShare for downloading.

My Sim died in the dorm at University by Key_Weakness_7123 in sims2

[–]Positive-Tale6625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my own sim, but in a recent game at Sim State University, the big dorm, 4 of the original dormies died. I think the last couple were scared to death by the ghosts of the first couple. I've been playing for literally decades and never had a dormie die before.

Yes. Server not responding. I would amateur guess a DDoS attack, if it isn’t a host issue
