Life Stories - Get the Stuffeths here!

[RainbowTigress]

Aww, don't thank me, SaraMK did all the hard work. 

[numaari]

Well, thank you anyways, Rainbow Tigress, for the info.  (And many thanks to SaraMK as well, if she's reading this thread...)

I wish that I had more time (and money) to spend on this game.  I'm grateful for the people with the expertise AND for the people who are able to point me in the right direction without pointing out what a moron I am.

(The more I learn, the less I know.)

EDIT: Errrr... could somebody give me a link to aforementioned lots?  I can't seem to find them.  *hangs head*

[Havelock]

Okay here is the first part of the LS lots with added Wallpapers and Floors.

You need the Wallpapers and Floors hosted by dewshine in this tread. Dont load the lots whitout them or you lost everything.
The Zip contains only the Lotfiles and another Zip with recolors of the Nightlive Rugs for the LS Rugs and some missing Wallpapers.

My big thanks to dewshine and giggy for the Wallpapers and Floors and to SahraMK for her Tutorial and the extracted Businesslots.

If you have the converted LS Furniture from BlueSoup you will see the Furniture in the Businesslots also, otherwise they convert to some Maxis Furniture used for cloning.

Crap forgot to add i used Seasons to make the lots if you dont have it use Cleaninstaller to unpack them. And they should work.

Edit: Dont forget the LS Roofs in this tread. You need them also for the Lots.

[Giggy]

[RainbowTigress]

Thanks, Havelock!  Do you plan to do Vincent's houses too?

[numaari]

Thanks tons, Havelock!  *glomps*

[Havelock]

Yes i work on them.

Maybe someone would like to have the LS Roofs. Here tey are the Roof with white trim and with brown trim.

Thanks Havelock, I completely missed these

I've been using the Numenor version of Life Stories, and read about the better Blue Soup, (more nourishing less fat) but realise that Blue Soup has canceled her forum.  Is there any other way to find her version of the stuff?  Or is it in that great garborator in the sky?  I've got the MATY coffee stuff, and don't know if it's gauche requesting stuff from a dead forum so feel free to tell me if it just ain't happening. (Sometimes it seems like the rules are a little random around here, you know?) Thanks.

[notveryawesome]

Thanks, this is great. Seriously, thank you Blue, giggy, dewshine, SaraMK, and Havelocke (and to anyone else who contributed that I may have forgotten) for the objects, floors, walls, roofs, and houses. I really appreciate having them in my game without having to buy Life Stories. The floors and walls, especially, are some of my new favourites.

[Giggy]

this maybe off topic but I hate those bloody morons that spammed my yahoo group about porn and computers, that is the 3rd time that has happened to me, I had to ban 2 people who was on the same subject but I'm very peeved off people have been putting off topic links into the links section
GAH! someone slap me with a wet fish before I blow

[ElfPuddle]

*slaps giggy with a wet fish*

[Shivani]

I think someone already alluded to this, but it's absolutely insane that a good half or more of the walls/floors from Life Stories are better looking than anything included in Sims 2.  I mean wow!  Fantastic!  Some really nice choices.

(I'm just glad I stopped back in to see why the thread was still going strong.)

Giggy, post a blurb in your intro advising all members to set their e-mail preferences to "no email'.  That's what I did on my group and the spammers  stopped even coming there. 

[kuronue]

you could also moderate new joins

[RainbowTigress]

I don't like having to go to the website to read new messages.  I have enough forums I'm trying to keep up with.  That's why I like the email feature. 

[bzrburns]

I was wondering if anyone else has noticed that the "Crockery Hall Dining Chair" in LS is designable (with 3 or 4 wood finishes and 3-4 seat pad colors) but the cloned version is not?  How can I make it designable in Simpe?

[Kayanna]

This is quite a story.    I am still trying with little success to understand the telenovela of Life Stories MTS2: Package Files Unleashed.  Numenor and/or Mary Lou (what did she do?) exhibited EA property, extracted from a new game, inviting the public to view and downlad with delightful results! Straight faced, on a sight that decries any smidgeon of borrowing any material developed by another "artist", there was the guts of the Life Stories, extracted from a commercial project!  Directly opposed to their policy!  Negative attention is better than none, as my adult children always demonstrate.. And it certainly worked!  EA insisted the files be removed, N and M appear contrite, yet have the street cred(?) of having provided us all with sexy (!?) new toys, and the soap opera is well developed with rumor (Blue Soup disappears, her files live on), a Yahoo Group dedicated to the cause and more people than ever interested in the game.  If I was a full blown conspiracy theorist I'd wonder if this was planned as an ad campaign from the beginning...no.  Life is always stranger than fiction.  And thank you to everyone involved in this great story. And in honor of the curmudgeonly request to stop thanking each other-thank you to everyone who has taken the time to say thank you.  Manners, like saying thank you, are what keep us (eventually)  from shooting each other.  They force us to recognise each other as human.  As someone who has been trying to civilise children for 30 years (currently working with grandchildren) saying thank you is a really good place to start.  Sometimes a thank you button is  just not enough.

Sometimes a thank you button is  just not enough.

Yes it is. If you haven't got anything useful to say, just push the damn button and quit wasting space. Positive feedback has absolutely no use or value. Only the negative matters.

[RainbowTigress]

I saw that coming.

Positive feedback has absolutely no use or value. Only the negative matters.

I'm using your pared down Career and Item hacks, but the game isn't letting me put a LS Career item into a sim's inventory. I pick up the Game Tester's "XBOX" in inventory mode, and it just gives me the descriptive mini-screen, and doesn't do anything when I try to put it in the bag. The other LS Items seem to fit just fine.

One other thing: I tried Skillinating Logic with it, and the sim quits using it after his Fun bar fills, with the Skill icon continually flickering on and off. The sim is a Serious one and always gripes whenever I make him use it, but does fine if I Macro/Concentrate him apart from the Skillinator. Isn't that supposed to happen automatically?

[RainbowTigress]

I've not used the Game Tester career reward, but is it on?  When I put computers or stereos in the inventory, I have to have a sim turn them off first or it won't go.

[Viewer]

...er, it's a game console, so I assume it automatically shuts off when not in use. Do I have to manually reset the controllers first?
