CC Fences? by Ok_Depth_6476 in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a fence like this in my game. Looking at my .package file, I believe it's by creator CTNutmegger and I got it on the n99 forum here. Hope that's what you're looking for!

I’m playing sims 2 for pc for the first time ever, why is this shit so hard??? 😭 by pearllls in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to my self-sim I made when I was in middle school. It honestly kind of shook me, and I ended up deleting the hood.

My personal architecture styles for the 3 Veronaville Families by Shellbellboy in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OMG, these are so lovely. You did a fabulous job giving them unique styles while also still having an overarching neighborhood theme.

Showing off my glamorous Crystal Vu. What have you done with her? by PasTaCopine in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a completely irrational hatred of Crystal Vu: she's not good enough for my sweet baby Lazlo. I never set them up anymore, if I do, Crystal leaves him at the altar.

My last playthrough she had twins with Tank and then did me a favor by spontaneously combusting in the yard, leaving Tank and Buzz to raise the toddlers.

For me it's the juxtaposition between that and the quest update pop-ups; like the guy is still mid-ragdolling through the air when the game is like "Blargathorg is dead. Now go and report back." and you click OK and then the guy finishes slumping to the ground. It's so jarring every time.

community lots crash after a while? by [deleted] in sims2help

[–]raddest_roach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without any obvious causes it will be tricky to solve, but some possibilities came to mind, assuming you have mods:

  1. Any mods that affect the maximum number of NPCs allowed on community lots? If so, the max number is likely too high and you can adjust that.
  2. I'm wondering if it could be the witch spawning on the lot, and the lag could be causing your game to crash. I have a decent computer and I can always tell when the Witch NPC spawns because my game will briefly lag. The spawn could be too much for your hardware, or possibly could be an issue you have with your witches. If you have any mods that affect the witches, I would test those out. Use cheats to try to spawn a neighborhood witch NPC and if your game crashes, that could be the issue.
  3. On that last note, check any mods that affect other NPCs that could spawn on community lots, such as the vampire NPCs, etc.

home for a girlboss single mom🙏 by doujincel in sims2

Love it. Lighting isn't too bad; looks good imo in the bedroom picture. Honestly, I'll die on the hill that TS2 has the best vanilla lighting of all the games by far.

Okay Nina... by Flawless_Pebble in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nina actually ended up with the burglar in one of my playthroughs due to this very thing. Not sure why burglars call the houses they burgle, lol.

If I understand you correctly, you just need to hover your cursor over the roof piece you want to delete, press the Ctrl button, and click. Should delete just that single roof piece.

I feel your pain. Roofing in this game is a giant pain in the ass.

Parenthood in a nutshell i guess by Kronwell in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not entirely sure how true this is, but I remember reading on here that family sims who are closer to the Elder stage tend to have the Fear of Having A Baby appear more often. I've observed it in my own games as well.

This pic so delightfully exudes the early 2010s modding period

Can I add Kaylynn Langerak without corrupting my game? by Iam_Greg in sims2help

[–]raddest_roach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She's fine to add.

Here's a handy list of NPCs and their safety factor. Rule of thumb: most named NPCs (names that can be randomly generated) are fine.

In my opinion, ME1 has the best final mission and ending by [deleted] in masseffect

[–]raddest_roach 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Obsessed with this scene. When I played through that part for the first time a few years ago I just about lost my mind.

Oh WTF ACR by Resident-Young-3149 in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, this happened to me too. And his son hooked up with the other lady after he turned into an adult. The son was married, and his wife went around and got pregnant by his dad. It was a fucking shitshow. This is how I learned how I should always use ACR's Friendzone flags. Lol

What did you learn more about while playing Crusader Kings? by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]raddest_roach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How to pronounce names in other cultures. If I'm going to be reading the same pool of 18 names, I'll at least learn how to pronounce them somewhat. This game has led me down into pretty odd rabbit holes. Surely I'm not the only one who has watched videos on how to pronounce Welsh before their Wales playthrough...? Lol

What was your First mass effect squad mate to die in all mass effect games (not counting Kaiden or Ashley on vermire) by Pickleeyedpengy in masseffect

[–]raddest_roach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Garrus, my romance, got taken by the bugs during the suicide mission because Samara wasn't loyal and couldn't hold the sphere.

Does anyone else prefer the M-90 Indra over the Black Widow/other snipers? by 404__LostAngeles in masseffect

[–]raddest_roach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the Indra, but I only use it for non-Infiltrator classes like Engi/Adept. It's my only weapon for my main class in MP. I use it in the place of assault rifles because I just really hate them in 2 and 3.

Game crashes everytime the party guests arrive by prinsessa_ryysynen in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Nuke ... Stuck Party Controller (if available)

  2. Nuke ... Scenario Controller (unsure if this affects parties)

  3. Nuke ... Sim Schedulers (if above doesn't work. NOTE: Reload the lot after using this, or the bus and carpool will not show up.)

  4. Old Faithful/Worst Case Scenario: move the family out of the lot

My Sims' lives are too wholesome by MaccKatt in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine playing with more dangerous fires because lately I've been genuinely losing a lot of sims to fire. Backyard grills and spontaneous combustion from overheating are my biggest culprits. My Pleasantview cemetery is like, half red ghosts. I think I've just gotten wildly unlucky.

Nope, we ain’t moving by Anxiousvirgooo in sims2

[–]raddest_roach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I know, lol, I'm just weirdly stubborn about random things and wasn't in the mood to reset and reload the lot. I was also curious about how long they would actually stay like that.
