Misc Sim Pictures

Zirconia Wolf · 07-27-2007, 07:35 PM

As I was combing through my various snapshots, I came across this one which has always tickled me.

I'm posting it here because it doesn't fit in ethier the "Stupid" or "Cute" threads, & my website isn't online yet.

I think it falls more into the category of "And you think you've got problems?"!

No, those aren't grapic errors...they're puppies in a snow bank! (Gotta love Seasons!)

(Their mother is actually eating out of her snow-covered dish, not chowing down on ice...)

Maybe it counts as EA being both stupid and cute.

Well, I've heard EA called stupid before, but never cute. There's a first time for everything!

I thought I was going crazy when I first saw that & almost forgot to snap the picture. It's a really good thing pets can't freeze to death...

I'd say puppies and toddlers definitely count as cute.

I gotta get a pic of a Sim "sharing" his food with a pet -- the first time I saw it, I was laughing too hard to hit Print Screen!

I just have to set some snapshots up.
I have a hotrod that leaves the driveway, and leaves the sim sitting in mid-air.
My selfsim decided to "fix" the TV. Blew it up big time, a month our time, his face is still black and green and brown and....

Edit.
Okay, I'm not sure what I did wrong then. But, the snapshot of my selfsim, opens fine in the built in picture previewer.

The picture is fine if you save it rather than opening it.

Anyhow, to get the char marks off: go to the mirror, click the "full face" icon, click the "no make up" icon.

The hot rod, I think i've heard of that problem before. Let me muse on it...

The picture won't display as an image because the web browser doesn't support .bmp format.

Instead of uploading screenshot.bmp, go to My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods\N00X\Storytelling\ and pick a .jpg image to upload. If you Show Details and sort by file date, it will be easy to find the latest snapshot. You want one of the images named like snapshot_12345678_90abcdef.jpg.

Thanks for the tip! I've been going crazy searching through those Storytelling pictures, as they seem to be in no perticulaur order!
