[evelyn]

Thanks everyone 

[Emhpb]

I made an Eliza Doolittle sim. (That's vintage, right?) I have no in-game pics yet, and my graphics suck so they would suck anyway. ;B Would anyone like to take pics for me? Or do you suppose CAS pics would be alright?

[evelyn]

I think CAS pics are fine. Is it possible to change your options to high just for pictures? Would that make a difference? I feel badly for you sometimes because it is obvious you put a lot of work into your projects but they are so blurry.
I would take pics for you but I'm behind on my SS gift. We have until the 28th right? *cries*

[Emhpb]

I do have my settings on high. Dxxxx *kicks stupid mac* This computer is SUPPOSED to have a good graphics card. But apparently Macs are not good at game graphics?

*sigh* I do put a lot of work into projects, but it would be so much better if I had a windows, as I could use CTU's preview, and work directly on the DDS files. I suspect I'm loosing quality by way of file conversion. ;/

& I think if you're really stressed for time, you can send after the 28th, as long as you tell Bosie so she can let your SS know.

[evelyn]

Oh, I'll be done in a day or so. It just seems like everyone sent theirs out the first day. And yes, it's difficult to make CC on a mac. I love them, and have one at work, but one of the reasons I have a PC at home is because of games.

[Emhpb]

I'm sure plenty of people haven't sent theirs out yet. Everyone is so busy atm.

Every time I make a piece of CC, I feel so proud of myself for just that reason. ;B

Also some things from this very nice, but badly organized Russian site. I used things from here, here, here, here, and here. *

*Anything with an Asterisk at the end will probably package itself with the house, so you don't need to download it twice. Probably. Check first to see if it did download at least.

This also requires the WA EP. I'm not sure what will happen if someone without it tries to install it, but I assume that it would probably not install.

Pictures! (click for a bigger view.)

Downstairs:




Upstairs:



Playtested, added few surprises... And the spare room off the kitchen makes a nice entrance to a cellar if you wish to add one. I just didn't feel like decorating a basement since my sims basements either look like storage areas or museums. Also, the fireplace has already been upgraded to fireproof, so don't be afraid to use it.

Download.

moryrie : I love it !
I love how detailed everything is!

I will download it as soon as I get home

[deirdrezoom]

I just wanted to say that I love all of the creations of this thread and have downloaded almost all of them! Thank you to the creators of all these fine works and for sharing them! Happy Holidays!!!!

[Emhpb]

*rolls around* Still need someone to take previews for my My Fair Lady sim...My graphics are still suck at the highest levels, but I've decided that I can't very well upload her without in-game pics, and expect people to get a fair idea of what she will look like in-game.

Here's a  CAS pic:

I'm not FABULOUS at creating sim-likenesses, but I think I got the general idea.

And here are her clothes:

Really it would be ideal if someone with these clothes (skirt and top are from EA store, hat is from parsimonious, and shoes are from lilisims, but the shoes are not essential) can take previews, but if you can dress her in something similar, that's just as good. ;3

So if anyone wants to help, let me know and I'll pm you the download. ;>

[evelyn]

Moryrie, that house is truly lovely. You did a great job.
Emphb, nice sim! The CAS photo is much better.

[Emhpb]

Lol, they're both CAS pics. >_>;; Or do you mean better than my other pics that I've taken in-game?
