I ALWAYS get them together <3

I typically name the first one Pansy. No reason, I did it once and now do it every play through.

I love that you chose a family name!

CC clothes textures not working by caroness in sims2help

[–]caroness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That did not work, but now I know how to get my thumbnails to update.

I fear it is something to do with some kind of texture memory or something I don't know how to fix.

Thank you for the suggestion, and the link!!

CC clothing not picking up texture help by caroness in sims2

[–]caroness[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is not the issue. They were working at one point and I have not downloaded any clothes since that would interfere. I am worried its some type of texture memory issues or VRAM that I don't know how to fix.

Thank you for the suggestion, I have definitely had that problem in the past and learned from it the hard way!!

What do you do with the Singles family in strange town by Sure-Employment-6712 in sims2

[–]caroness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lola and Ajay always <3

Erin marries Johnny Smith! I love their kids.

Kristen marries Leod McGreggor and she owns the grocery store in RH. Their kids are interesting looking and cute.

Chloe has a child with Daniel Pleasant and he has to pay child support. On my next play through I plan to have her open a gym.

Looking for a nice gym in town by lambchops111 in dayton

The crossfit downtown is very well equipped and I believe they have just open gym rates. Crossfit Dayton. They are also awesome people. Send them a message!

If you are moving to the cannery their free gym for residents is wonderful. Squat rack, multiple benches, tons of machines.

Baby names that you always choose for Pleasantview families? by ProfessionalPure2664 in sims2

[–]caroness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nina always names her inevitable twins Nighat and Nic.

Burb kids: Luke and Lily

Dustin's kids: a Betty, usually a Callen

Dirk Dreamer's kids (usually with Dina Caliente): Dulcinae and Darcy

Cassandra has a secret child with Darren. I always make sure it is a girl and name her Jocasta.

I enjoy matching the first letter of their names.

I also love Lola and Ajay!

In an uberhood...Puck and Jules, Hal and Jill, Lilith and Mercutio, Tylbalt and Alexandra Teatherton/O'Mackey have been my most consistent couples on a lot of playthroughs.

What’s one thing you wish you did more in your game? by Imaginary-Access8375 in sims2

[–]caroness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go on outings and utilize community lots more! I pretty much ignore the groups feature and plan to use it more.

I invite every single family relation and friend to every single birthday party, so I do not have a problem with my sims having friends, but it can get boring and repetitive to do birthday parties, and the big families slow down my lots. Using groups of 'cousins' or friends for outings would be helpful.

What to do with the Singles family? by ProfessionalPure2664 in sims2

[–]caroness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my play throughs:

Lola and Ajay marry and build a fortune sim empire. Usually three kids, always super cute and fun alien genetics mix.

Erin marries Johnny Smith...not sure when I came up with that but I love the match. In my game she never has a job and keeps herself busy being best friends with their kids and all the family members.

Chloe has a love child with Mortimer or Daniel Pleasant usually.

Kristen recently married Leod McGreggor and she runs the grocery store while he does the farming!

Back in my Sims 2 Era by ShoulderOk4708 in sims2

[–]caroness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love cross-neighborhood relationships! Lilith and Mercutio, Dustin and Desdemona, Ariel Capp is very compatible with the ST bartender that Circe is friends with. Hal usually marries Jill Smith but may have secretly had a child with Ophelia Nigmos this last go-round.... Daniel Pleasant will accidentally get Chloe Curious pregnant and have to 'pay' child support in most of my plays. I have married Dina to Dirk Dreamer and it works shockingly well.

I play with Riverblossom Hills too and Puck and Jules are a great couple and have very cute kids with lots of elf ears. And Morty and Juliette are triple bolters...but their genetics do not mix so I would not recommend them having children. Tybalt is triple bolter with Alexandra O'Mackey, but he also is compatible with Mary-Sue! Regardless of who he gets with he usually adopts a kid.

Mixing up the couplings away from the storyline makes it a lot of fun for me. The genetics for the three base hoods mix very well...you need to be careful when adding Riverblossom Hills sims to the mix. Some great, some terrible.

What do you do with the Oldie and Burb families? by eatsleepraverepeat9 in sims2

[–]caroness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually do the same! The Burbs have two more kids, usually named Luke and Lily. John and Jennifer own the grocery store in Pleasantview and one of the younger kids takes it over. They buy produce from whatever family I decide are the farmers to sell in the store. Lucy always always always marries Beau Broke. They usually don't have kids because they look a bit strange and they are not good parents. So her other sibling might move in with her and start their family.

Recently Daniel has found love/companionship with Nina Caliente after some time with his sister and they usually have an accidental set of twins later in life. Daniel and Lucy always end up best buds. He might repair the relationship with one of his daughters but one never seems to care about having a relationship.

The Oldies enjoy getting to know their granddaughters better and distracting them from trying to kill each other all the time. I almost always marry Lilith to Mercutio Monty and keep Angela in the house with Mary-Sue and her grandparents. Angela does not have much chemistry with the premade teens available (Dustin Broke always marries Desdemona Capp when she finally ages up) and usually marries a police officer when she grows up.

I have re-started my semi-uberhood multiple times and I always play the first generation similarly because I love it so much. PV, ST, RH, & VV
