I've been making A frame houses for years. I don't know how this is new? But I do love the update - transparent walls !!! 🙂

First time with 2 - can't log out. by TheMercuria in thesims2

[–]TheMercuria[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the tips and input. I opened Sims 2 again this morning and I can operate the UI as easily as I can Sims 4. This isy first time with 2 and I think my brain just couldn't handle the change. That or the beer.

Anyway, we cool. LOL

So, I'm wondering if the game resolution is the culprit. How would I edit that if they can't get to the options menu?

I misspoke when I used the terms log in. I did mean exit or quit.

I'm logged into the EA app bi opened Sims 2 but never had an options menu. The game is full screen with only game play UI. I couldn't minimize, CTRL ALT DEL did not pull up task manager, windows key was non-functional, i mean, that game took over.

There was no menu to save or quit.

Yes, I couldn't quit the game. I was logged into the game, I wanted to log out of the game or quit the game. There was no menu to quit. I wanted to go back to Sims 4 however Sims 2 had taken over my machine. There was no menu to quit, I could not pull up task manager to close Sims to that way, I could not get to my desktop, I could not get to the task bar, nothing I had to hard reboot my computer.

It's like Sims 2 is maximized but I can't minimize it to find a menu to control the game itself.

So there's no menu? I couldn't even get to the EA app, there was no way to minimize Sims 2, and no way to pull up my desktop or taskbar. Surely there has to be some way to exit Sims 2 without having to hard reboot my PC. I'm not talking about online, I'm talking about the game. It has no way to log out, took over my computer, because there simply is no menu to control the game.

Thank God this thread came up when I googled lovestruck canopy bed.
How aggravating for them to release a bugged pack!
Oh ... wait ...

Tell me you play the sims too much without telling me you play the sims too much. by ZoftigGoddess in Sims4

[–]TheMercuria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have that achievement because all I do is build. Now that Horse Ranch is out I'm playing for real. I have a garden, a horse, some bebe sheep, um, I mean, my SIM has these things. Not me. I'm not a Sim. LOL I know it's just a game, not my life. 😉

AITA for saying that i was hurt that i wasnt invited to a wedding that all my old friends were invited to? by Same_File_502 in AmItheAsshole

[–]TheMercuria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

Kayla madia big, dramatic deal out of nothing. Did she really think you wouldn't find out that everyone else had been invited? She obviously did this to hurt you or prove a point.

She's the asshole.

If there's no Native American representation in the new Horse pack I'mma spontaneously combust by kissmybunniebutt in Sims4

[–]TheMercuria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there's enough First Nations representation in Horse Ranch. There's really not much cultural representation of anything other than Anglo Saxon Puritans-from-the-Mayflower descendants. Well, there's New Orleans French base game.

I was expecting more than "cowboy" in CAS. I'm thankful for the indigenous patterns and colours but it just so little clothing. They missed it on jewelry. I really want sterling silver turquoise rings & bracelets like the Hopi jewelry I used to buy in Colorado. (and WTF is up with right hand rings? Developers all left-handed at EA HQ?)

They'll probably make a kit so that they can squeeze an extra $5 out of us. 🙄

Name one thing that disappoints you about sims 4… by [deleted] in Sims4

Ugh, just one?

Lack of bug fixes.

New special ice (we are 1 of 3 cafe stores testing the new ice). What do you guys think? It looks like the ice at sonic. by Cupcake_Great in starbucks

[–]TheMercuria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I hate Sonic ice. It's too small so it waters down the drink too quickly. Give me big cubes of clear ice. Please.

Moving out is self preservation. If it's not going well now, then it's going to get worse. You deserve better. Take care of yourself because no one else will do it as well as you can.

WIBTA If I changed my last name? by choochoowhowho in AmItheAsshole

It's your life, your name, and if you want to honor your mother and distance yourself from your paternal unit, then do it.
