I know it's probably late to make a picspam about the newest expansion (everyone else already did, I think I will be the last one xD), but I just have to show you what I did yesterday in my game, and how amazing Pets are.
First thing I did was open Appaloosa Plains and go to create a pet! I decided to make a dog first, and when I saw this, I died... Seriously, it's so sweet! And I love the animations, they are amazing :D
In TS3 Pets you can customize everything you want about your pets. The CAP is so advanced... I had the same feeling when I first played The Sims 2 and created a family. There were so many new sliders and you could choose from multiple eyes, hairs and everything, not like in TS1. The same thing's here: In TS3 Pets you can edit or rotate every single spot on your pet's skin, seriously. The eye coloring is just like with sims' makeup. There are a few layers, and you can change the color of whichever you want. TS2 CAP was much more primitive xD
When I created a dog, a horse and a cat, I made a sim too but my game crashed, and I had to run it without CC, so I just moved my old testing sim, Kyoko Evangelian to look after the pets.
This is my horse :D. His name is Thunder.
I was so busy looking at the horse animations, I almost didn't notice this! OMG, Tommy (that's the dog's name) got glitched!
Weird, he looks like a mutant or a zombie dog, or... something?
Tommy: *confused* What just happened?
Spot: Don't you ever scare me like that again!
Tommy: Hey, I wanted to sit here!
Spot: I was here first, sucker!
Look at Spot's bitchy face, LOL
They immediately started arguing. :P
I bought a turtle! He's so awesome! :D
Kyoko seems very happy. She loves her new mini zoo xD
O_O
Spot: Let me give you a little piece of advice. Think twice before attacking me again, got it?
Lol, Spot actually defeated Tommy, who is actually five times as large as she is.
Thunder ignored the whole "drama". He was busy having a nap.
Kyoko prepared some food for her beloved horse.
OMG, and ice-cream truck! I've been waiting for this!
Ice-cream = <3
Lively pets are lively ;)
A wild horse! Running around! Go, chase him, Thunder!
Getting to know each other.
This is the part I laughed. A lot. Horses chatting with each other...! LOL
I have absolutely no idea if this horse was a girl or a guy. I was just wondering if she/he and Thunder can have babies... Oh well...
Tommy reminds me of my own dog, who died half a year ago... :(
I sent him to town to explore and meet some other dogs there.
As you can see, there's one over here.
Well, it seems, that dogs can actually talk too xDD
Spot didn't have any luck finding other cats in town, so she just went to sleep in a local cat area.
This is when I switched the household to random townies, I wanted to explore even more xD
A little cute horse! I can't even...!
Aw, sweet <3
Dog guarding his little house. ;)
It seems that horses have a running skill. Good, good...
I wanted him to jump a bit too, but all he did was this. Actually quiet cool too.
Well, well, well, how beautiful.
Of course I mean the horse, not this random chick riding it.
*climbing, climbing*
Success!
... *switching families again*
Haha, what a face <3
*switching*
It's time for a cat spam from an old crazy lady's house.
(I increased brightness a bit, otherwise it would be too dark)
Turns out cats have awesome animations too!
And then I realized, I didn't explore the town yet, so here's the Appaloosa mini tour:
Obligatory cemetery shot (this is always the first place I check when there's a new world to explore)
That view is amazing... THAT TREE IS AMAZING!
My new favorite TS3 tree! I love it!
Here's another good looking tree.
(and another amazing view)
A criminal base in an abandoned canyon. *approves*
I want to live there, it's a cool town!
...
And this is the point my game crashed... :P. Damn. Turns out it still searches for this "dasmxblahblahblah.dll, which it shouldn't be searching for. Last time I had this, updating Nraas Mods solved it. This was my idea to fix it, so I updated the mods today and it didn't work out. The game lasted two hours and it crashed, just like yesterday. Oh, well I can still delete the cache files, I always forget about them.
Well, I wanted to reload it and take more awesome Appaloosa shots, but it was late anyway, and I really had to go to bed, etc, etc...
I hope you liked my picspam. I love the newest expansion :D
See you soon.
