First uberhood pictures taken with Fraps instead of ingame camera. They're 800 x 500 instead of the regular ingame camera 600 x 450. Also first time playing with ACR2!

Julien Cooke was our first experiment (I like that name better when it's spelt Julian D:).

Last of the "old" ingame pictures! After this, we started using Fraps to take them.

The Traveller family aren't going to be able to live up to their name, since the vacations mostly bore us. So we figure they finished their travels, and moved back to the city...

More bin families!

This time, it's our favourite military couple, the Picasos. I don't quite understand their last name, since none of them seem artsy and none of them have the Arts & Crafts hobby to begin with. But whatever.

The Newsons... What to say about the Newsons? They are a challenge, that's for sure, at least until the two toddlers grow up.

We placed them downtown in one of those second-biggest-type houses.

So we moved a bunch of bin families into Downtown, starting with the Gavigans.

The houses downtown really aren't too bad, overall, but the layout inside most of them is pretty terrible. Luckily, that's not too hard to fix.

The last family in Belladonna Cove.

Ugh, am I the only one who suffers from Sim ADD? Every now and then I will get this BRILLIANT idea for a new 'hood and/or challenge, I will start on it with great enthusiasm, play it for a few hours, then realise it was a bad idea and that I'm not really all that interested after all. I wasted the whole morning on a project like that today. D ( Read more... )

Carlos Contender is like an aged Daniel Pleasant who never married, or something.

In the default Belladonna Cove template, he had the Popularity aspiration, even though everything about him was screaming Romance sim. So I changed him in my clean version.

Let's see what he gets up to!

More uberhood fun! We told ourselves we were gonna do one of these a day to keep up, but you know how it is with resolutions, they rarely work out. :P

Anyway, here's some Riley family pictures for you.

I like the Cho and Riley families a lot. We have them in our BACC 'hood as well, in fact. Gotta love the "one parent tragically died in an accident" angle. Wonder if any of them were pool-ladder related?

Anyway, there's a lot of pictures for this one, and much toddler spam.
