Work in progress....

Hi ya All,

Just to keep you updated about what's been going on and coming up :D

First of all the new Sim I have been working on. I haven't come up with a name for her yet, so for now I will call her Miss NameLess :) Still have to do a lot of work on Miss NameLess before she's ready for upload, but I do have a sneak peek, hahaha.

 
I hope to get her named, finished and uploaded by the end of the weekend or the beginning of next week.

Some other stuff I'm working on, is another tutorial. This tutorial is about (combining) and compressing package-files and getting prepared for this exercise. This will be the main thing I will be working on this weekend. I hope to get this finished and uploaded by the end of this weekend.

So I'm gonna work on the tutorial now ;P

Groetjes, Cheers, Gruessen,

Tutorial time !! :D

Hi ya All,

If you have had enough of the default pics in CAS / the Sim Bin, I know a way to change them ! I think it's kind of cool if your custom made Sims in CAS do show up with a picture you like.
And I managed to find out just that !! That's why I've made a detailed tutorial so you can do the same as well ;P

I have posted the tutorial here: How to change a default CAS pic tutorial

If you have any questions about it, please let me know.

Have fun & happy Simming !!

Feelings and stuff...

Hi ya All,

Sometimes there are nights such as I'm experiencing now. I feel hot, the kind of way like it is hot, like in temperature. Some more feelings begin to surface, like sadness...
*sigh* I miss my sis.
... Loneliness and missing out on essential items in my life and at this time not being able to hide away from these feelings, by dreaming away and creating people-like fantasies or should I say mirages.
I miss my covering up from the truth, real life; because I like it, it's easier that way, it makes it more convenient.
I like dreaming, letting my emotions go and make something, create something (good).
But now I can not hide, I got to face life, no hideaways, no 'easy' way out.
I know, I've got friends and I know it's me who's got to face life and deal with it and deal with the problems (some I created myself), with the help of my friends; but ultimately it has to be me. It's got to be me !!

Friends to me, are like family; I can not live without them !! They inspire, listen, point in a direction, are a shoulder to cry on, but also make you laugh, smile and even show you what you're doing wrong and make you understand why.
One of my friends helped me tonight, laughing, writing about feelings, being positive, even in hiding out a bit, but also maybe trying something different.
She's life, she's full of life, she's sweet, creative, funny and she has this incredible gift to put a smile on my face, regardless of the situation she or I am in.

Although you're very much younger then I am, you are still very wise, creative and so talented in writing and storytelling !! Your my friend, my pal, my concience and my source of inspiration.
I LOVE you Shai !!
You're the best !! I'm so happy to have met you.
You are like my sis was to me !!

Moon Davilar

 Download: Moon Davilar V1.0.7z 
Unpack with: 7-Zip 

Because I did have a recent backup, I'm now able to publish a Sim I made, for the Gothic Beauty Competition over at CStyles (but had to drop out of, because of the fire).
I don't have the exact specs on the CC used (because I can not run the game at this time), but if you would like to know about (a) specific CC item(s), please do ask and I will try to figure out where I got it from.

I'm (part) back !! :D

Hi ya All,

Just want to keep you updated on my computer(-fire) situation.
I'm now able to go and be online again, because I can borrow a spare laptop from my work, yaaeeehhh !!
However I'm not back to the simming part though, because I can't install any software on this laptop for security reasons (which I can fully understand).
For now I'm very happy with this situation !! :D
I'm also checking out my options on buying a new computer / laptop and I'm making some progress.
If all goes well, I may have a new computer / laptop by the end of next week or a bit later.

I'm even more happy & excited because Holland is in the finale of the soccer World-championships in South Africa, for the 1st time since 1974 & 1978 !! I hope we'll get 3rd time lucky to be World-champion for the 1st time !! Come on Holland !!

Hup Holland Hup !!! Hahahaha LOL :P

Computer, updates, heat & fire !!

Hi ya All,

Just a quick word about what happened last Thursday night.

It was freaking hot in my living room again (34° C / 93° F). Although it was hot, I decided to work on my 2nd assignment of the Gothic Beauty Contest I entered with "Moon".
When I started my computer, things were still OK, after a while virus- and spyware programs started updating as usual, but I noticed this time, my CPU cooler-fan or maybe another cooler-fan, started going berserk !!
I ignored it, while I thought it was hot indeed.
When my virus-scanner started it's daily quick-scan, things started to go very, very wrong.
I smelled something, then there was smoke, then my screen went black and then I noticed my computer was on fire !! I quickly detached my external hard-drive & ran with hard-drive and all to my kitchen.
Put the hard-drive (with recent backup :D) somewhere safe in my kitchen and grabbed a big bowl and filled it with cold water. Ran back to my computer and put out the fire.
However the damage was already done.... :(
My computer, motherboard & internal hard-drives were all fried and fused !! 
@#Rd%&F#* !!

I , myself was OK though (physically), on the other hand I was totally devastated (mentally).

At this time I don't have enough (spare) money to buy a new computer, although I want to buy one as quickly as possible !! For now I can only use a computer when I visit my family or friends and use theirs (while I'm there), or when ever I can (if possible) when I'm at my work.
So my online access is very limited and my Simming has gone to nil, for the time being :(

I do not yet know when I will be back fully, but I will return !!

Upon my return, DO have fun & DO some Simming for me !

Groetjes, Cheers, Gruessen,

Eva
