And, yeah, I've caught all kind of bugs from this... lol... another one would be the 'real-life stuff, whatever, blog needs attention' bug :)<br /><br />See above comment re the freezer clock - what I really needed (to use with either the clock or the pause button) was a way to put the game into extreme slow motion.<br /><br />Tanja, yeah, he does need to sort himself out before he can move forward... when I was writing this one, I felt really sorry for both of them, but especially Willow, I think, because at least Kyle made the decision this time, while like Carla said, Willow seems helpless.Blackcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01994340662958807275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944009820040222060.post-87150876851595146242010-07-22T07:06:12.044+12:002010-07-22T07:06:12.044+12:00Poor Willow, after everything that happened, now K...Poor Willow, after everything that happened, now Kyle is leaving too. But he really has to sort himself out, only then he can get his life back together.Tanjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07054869544598274885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944009820040222060.post-26708769838631682072010-07-22T01:34:36.279+12:002010-07-22T01:34:36.279+12:00Oh and their "happy pictures" hanging in...Oh and their "happy pictures" hanging in the background! Isn't that always the case? <br /><br />I'm scared for him too! She must be terrified! I see him needing to get away from all this though, so I hope it's the right move. Awww, that hug at the end! Love is such a beautiful and complex thing, even if a couple isn't technically "together". I loved this!<br /><br />Oh yes, ditto Carla - I was going to mention the freezer clock too!<br /><br />Yay, you've caught the soundtrack bug! And the storytelling bug too ;) See, inspiration comes from all kinds of things.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04990333808465359314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944009820040222060.post-59599026075258078962010-07-21T13:36:29.712+12:002010-07-21T13:36:29.712+12:00Carla, I was using the freezer clock, but I still ...Carla, I was using the freezer clock, but I still couldn't to get him to lie still long enough to pause the game and/or freeze him! <br /><br />For most of the animations, the instant the sim finishes the death animation (ie is completely lying on the ground), they immediately bounce up and either reset or restart the animation... they don't even stop moving... can kind of understand that, I wouldn't want to stay dead any longer than I had to, either :)<br /><br />The door thing was one of my rare instances of discovering something genuinely useful :) Hope it helps.Blackcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01994340662958807275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2944009820040222060.post-79811784540704033282010-07-21T11:10:07.827+12:002010-07-21T11:10:07.827+12:00Oh, wow...I guess Kyle has to sort himself out and...Oh, wow...I guess Kyle has to sort himself out and everything but I'm just feeling so awful for Willow. She's got to feel completely helpless right now.<br /><br /><i>I tried various animation pose-boxes and tools to get Kyle to do the death animation, but it took ages to find one in which he would lie 'dead' long enough for me to pause the game and take the picture</i><br /><br />Were you using Freezer Clock? I find that so helpful in getting Sims to just <i>stop</i> at exactly the right time. <br /><br />And thank you for the tip on the doorway! I was trying to do that just the other day actually and ended up giving up! I'll have to try that next time.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.com
