Sims updates
Well, it's absolutely official now. My Eridanos neighborhood is not fixable. I was hoping that, with SimPE, I would be able to go in and identify the corrupted files and remove them. And I did so. But it made no difference. Eridanos still borked when trying to create weather, so I think the corruption runs deeper than I can find with my very limited experience in playing with files and SimPE.
However, the good news is that I was able to use SimPE to clone off Kiley, as she was the only one of the four main kids that I didn't already have saved in my Sim bin. So, once I move the story to the point where the kids finish high school and leave home, I'll be able to recreate their Sims and take pictures again.
As it is, and as I've mentioned before, I do still have pictures enough for a couple of updates, and I am currently close to finishing up the next one.
So too with WTiS. I actually have two updates almost ready to go for that one, as I was partway through a large plot-important update that I'd hoped to get done before I left for Michigan, but when I realized I wouldn't be able to, I started on a second smaller update that I thought might get finished quicker. Obviously that didn't happen either. So, they are both in the works and should be ready pretty quick.
I also finally installed the H&M stuff pack last night, and despite the fact that I loathe being advertised at from my game, I actually quite like some of the outfits that came with the pack and have already spotted some I would like to recolor. And having new outfits means I can get rid of that much more CC, which is always a good thing. Haven't looked at the objects that came with the pack too much yet, but I know that I was interested in some of the retail advertisement objects, with the thought of recoloring in mind as well. And of course, I need to try out the runway objects with Strangetown's models... ^_^
