A little Christmas fun! :P

It's funny how we get inspiration (good or bad) in our games. I just happened to be sucking on a peppermint candy and loaded the household with my zebra and the next thing I knew, I had three candy-coated horses! :P

Spearmint, Peppermint and Candy Cane


Click on their names to download from MediaFire if you want them! Do as you please with them! :P

Candy Cane (mare)


Peppermint (stallion)


Spearmint (mare)

Broke down...

...and installed the patch! :P

Loaded the game with no mods; and played around in an empty Appaloosa Plains! Had to remodel the house and needed a barn - so I combined the two! :P



The camera is jerky as all get out in Build Mode (more so than before), but other than that I didn't notice anything else gone awry!

A few randoms...

Well, I guess the rainbow makes finding the unicorns easier...


Building a lot for a possible story...?!?!?!?!?!?


I just realized how color coordinated they were...right down to the shiny goggles and horn! :P


Ever wonder what causes bad hair days?

Season's Greetings!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to one and all!

Uni-play

I was bored and watched the unicorn play with the ball! :P

More poopies...

I find it disappointing in the limited interactions between dogs (I haven't experienced cats yet) and sims. Sniff and knock over? Seriously? Is that it? Where's the licking and why can't toddlers hug the pets? They could in TS2, if I remember correctly! Regardless, it sucks! The Sims 3 game designers are really lacking on imagination and/or animation! Perhaps they are just ignorant to what Pets are! Or even more so, they just suck; as with Hidden Springs, they gave us a fountain of youth and hyped it to the hilt, yet did not feel the need to PLACE one in the world, leaving the user dumbfounded, trying to locate this mystical fountain! I don't know about others, but I am losing interest in the game altogether! I cannot remember EVER being this disappointed with The Sims or Sims 2! /rant

In any case, I find some of the animations for the pets are neat!













And this, in my opinion, has got to be the ugliest set of items EA has put out to date!



Seriously, who the hell designed this thing?

And then there were poopies...cute, cute poopies...

I decided to make a pair of dalmations and breed them to see the pet genetics...



OK, not so cute...almost there!


Apparently, puppy making tires out the males!




And some d'awww moments...
Achilles in the background looking like some kind of Cruella DeVille! :P












And while the adults were playing and plotting with the dogs, the children were watched after and entertained.

New Death type - Pets

I was trolling Appaloosa Plains and happened upon this ghost!

Apparently, the new death type with Pets is Pet Old Age Bad! Not sure how it's achieved, but this little guy (not old by any stretch of the imagination) is a victim of Pet Old Age Bad! This little fella's name is Glint 2. Singleton and is homeless! (may have to give him a home)
