Rafflesia also grows in East Malaysia  Wink I saw one once. It wasn't a mature one so wasn't as big as it's supposed to be (or so the guide said) but afternoon heat + Rafflesia perfume = instant faint.

Um, can someone clear this concept for me? Is the money for the sim moving out pulled from net worth of the household or free cash?

Liveangel: So do I, but why on earth does that have a label? Undecided Asking her made no sense - apparently I'm a nerd and I don't know anything about pop culture. Hur.

That's because two different sentiments are being expressed here: "Fruity" covers things that are in the manner of a homosexual. A quality judgement is not applied. "Gay" as applied to a negative assessment of worth derives from the same derivation as "sucks" and "blows". Also, Jelenedra is the new gay.

Oh. Okay. Tongue But then we call girl-stuff fruity, too. We use it to imply negativity, like an in-language thing. But I do understand your point.

I've nothing against homosexuals nor does my sister (she calls herself a fag-hag, whatever that is), but we say 'fruity' instead of 'gay'. Like, green pants and pink shirts. Or the backpacks. That's fruitalicious.

Did the toddler max creativity on the xylophone, or by drawing on the activity table?

   I don't have FT, so i have no idea how the activity table affects things.  Toddler maxed using the xylophone (which is so easily done now, double smart-milk effect, Autumn (Seasons) boost and Adventurer/Journalism reward in toddler room), maxing 2 skills as a toddler is feasible.

It's the same for me, but without the Journalism/Adventurer reward. Several children painted masterpieces, so now I remove the smart milk effect as soon as my toddlers grow up. MOAR PAIN is good, this game is just too easy otherwise. Also, I've the regular habit of starting/stopping the painting, gaining creativity via different objects, etc. My vampire maxed on the piano, painted three full paintings (start/stop) and got a masterpiece (green mood, green Asp).

Mood might be a factor, all my sims have also been in green mood or better. But as far as Aspiration is concerned, I have had some teens of the full-skills variety achieve masterpieces in red. Then again, it might just be my game. After the masterpiece is painted, though, it does seem to take some time to get another one.

6  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Revival of Sims 1 phone calls!! on: 2008 February 18, 06:29:23
I have to admit, I found them hilarious and I do miss them a little. Like the 'They are watching you. They are coming." or something like that. I had real life prank calls like that  Cheesy I always wished I could add to the game the call I got once by a guy yelling at me to come and clean up after my cow, cause it pooped all over his lawn.
7  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Dumping Trash in the Toilet? on: 2008 February 13, 07:47:49
Haha, I thought I was the only one! But yeah, like gravatik said. Somehow the action to throw the bag into the wastebasket, or the can outside is interrupted, and macrostatics instantly queues washing the toilet bowl... but they keep the bag in hand and the brush doesn't appear. So it looks like that. But not true that it happens when there's no can or something... this occurs when they're interrupted (like a sim blocking their way, or something.) The usual reaction is to just throw the garbage on the floor, but macrostatics doesn't allow them to, and it gets stuck as they do other things.
8  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: Anyone want Enayla's Fanasty skins as Genetics? (Added Normal skins) on: 2008 February 07, 03:50:41
Yay! I just discovered them, thank you for adding the values :-) I keep notes of hex strings too, hahaha, and even a list of the skins in a neat table form so there's no more than one or two skins per value. OCD much? Embarrassed
9  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Random Limo Drive By on: 2007 September 12, 12:15:33
For me it's always the plumbing. Toilets flush permanently and sinks with tap turned on full. Very distracting. Exiting the lot works usually.
10  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Changing the voice? on: 2007 September 09, 03:49:24
Something's changed since BV. Servo's back to metallic voice, and I tried copy pasting the voice data, but no dice. Tried several adult male voices.
11  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: 'Nostupidonreset'? on: 2007 August 22, 07:26:34
Great, the mention of its being a bit dangerous makes me want to try it out. What are the known side-effects, can they be repaired if and when they occur?
12  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / 'Nostupidonreset'? on: 2007 August 22, 06:36:42
I saw this in the test directory, looking for the much-famed gpsign...
Does it help with the problem of sims who were smartmilked, being reset to stupid again upon lot load? Or something else?
13  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Moving the butterfly spot on: 2007 August 10, 05:46:18
Gwill -- I usually see the butterflies/fireflies spawn near a tree or bush, and moving the tree/bush moves the spawning spot.  If you have a tree by the driveway, maybe try moving it and see if they follow?  Or put a tree/bush somewhere else on the lot and see if they move there?

No, they don't. I have the same issue as well. There are no bushes or trees, in fact all plants are on the other side of the lot. At least Gwill's are next to the driveway... mine always hover at the garbage cans! Lips sealed Flies in disguise, maybe?
14  TS2: Burnination / Oops! You Broke It! / Re: Cat can't be hugged on: 2007 August 09, 13:30:48
I deleted one cat, and after reload both were wonky. Grr. It worked after I deleted both and reloaded.

Somehow a real cat has managed to get into your game. Real cats can only be hugged when they want it. Tongue

 Cheesy I thought so myself at first!
15  TS2: Burnination / Oops! You Broke It! / Cat can't be hugged on: 2007 August 09, 05:17:38
This family has two cats, one of which behaves normally, but for some reason the other cannot be given love or played with by a sim. There's no error or anything, it simply drops out of queue. The cat can ask for it, and gets it, but not the other way around no matter how high the relationship. Personality-wise, it's independent, but that's never made any difference for all pets.
I must mention both cats are adopted strays.

Hacks information: 90% Pescado's hacks, no pet-related hacks except for Pescado's. I do use jfade's pet stuff, the litter/food dish. I also use paladin's one-tile pet bed. I have had them for a long time. I also have insim, but I use only the teleporter and pregnancy controller (yes, yes, lazy puppy-killing bum and all that). Tried the elimination method, no dice.

I'll attach an error log, but at which point do I force the error? There's isn't any jumping or other funky behaviours at all!
16  TS2: Burnination / Planet K 20X6 / Re: August "More Awful Than You": Most Fugly Celebrity Sims on: 2007 August 08, 15:25:41
Yech! I'm pretty sure that sim is male... unless Billy's changed his palate recently. Some of these attempts are godawful puke-worthy.
17  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: Huge recolour project on: 2007 July 16, 02:06:55
Very true. I've dumped many good meshes too, because of the horrid colors. Asian sites have a really bad habit of making reds pink or fire engine red Sad
18  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Is it possible to mod the daylight times? on: 2007 July 02, 17:04:12
I like the lightshow too, the amber tints are so pretty and real. By the way, why is it so bright in winter?
19  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Fitness Surprise on: 2007 July 02, 15:40:20
 Wink Naw, it ain't the diet... the nanny stuffed her full of cakes and such crap that she got obese (this was pre-lobonanny). Was definitely all that running.
20  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Fitness Surprise on: 2007 July 02, 03:33:44
I know cops n robbers works for kids. I remember I had a fat kid once who played with her friend for hours, and her fitness went to normal.
21  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Butterflies and Build Mode on: 2007 June 30, 15:30:46
It is definitely there on all lots that are unoccupied.  The tallying is a little quirky when certain items are deleted, but it works nonetheless.

It's on occupied lots, also, and business lots. I tend to check net house worth because I use Inge's mortgage shrubs. It can be tricky, because the values don't take into account renovations at later dates. I have mansions standing $200 worth Huh.
22  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: Anyone want Enayla's Fanasty skins as Genetics? (Added Normal skins) on: 2007 June 30, 13:53:32
 Smiley Cool, glad it's not just me, then. I was experimenting mostly because I really didn't want two versions of the same skin on my computer, which is why I steer clear of hairy skins and special mesh skins, as much as I would like them.
I hope creators will one day find a way to layer tattoos and hair onto skin (hint hint Dewshine Grin)

ETA: I'm a Blathering Buffoon now? Yay! A ripped lip!
23  Awesomeware / The Armory / Re: Anti-Maxian Peeing Obsession on: 2007 June 28, 11:15:50
The penguin pees, too. Waddles about, sim pets it, up his leg goes and there's a nasty puddle to clean. Cute Tongue
24  TS2: Burnination / Peasantry / Re: Anyone want Enayla's Fanasty skins as Genetics? (Added Normal skins) on: 2007 June 28, 03:44:57
I've noticed lately when you replace skin numbers on a sim in-game their bodies change, but their faces stick to the default S2 skin. Vamping and curing usually works.
25  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: I object Podium on: 2007 June 28, 03:34:12
Free Will off is boring. I'd rather my sims get into scrapes when I'm not supervising, makes the game more interesting. Otherwise it's just a routine of "go, eat, sleep, study, etc". Not enough danger and drama, IMO.
