Sims Stuff
Oct. 15th, 2010 05:21 pmHere's the promised
revison_doc update. It's a combined update for the Robinsons and Parkers, though the Robinsons only appear briefly. They just don't do much. There's a few things I'd like to point out here:
1. The Buffy and skunk incident actually happened the night AFTER Jane went bowling -- it just seemed easier to reorder things. Buffy is actually the first pet I've had sprayed -- a dubious honor to be sure, but hey.
2. Verne Servo's a different color now -- I went ahead and put in default replacement hack so my Servos would be bronzy and thus more steampunky. I didn't know if it would affect Verne, as he was built beforehand, but apparently it does. At least it looks good on him.
3. Jane got Emmett and Jane E the Good Witch to talk via influence. For some reason, though, Emmett did that weird "loud noise" animation. They do know each other now, it's just at a slightly-negative level. Ah well.
4. Emmett dropped by the actual Parker house that day as well -- here's a cut shot of him playing with Buffy:

5. I ran into a really weird glitch with Marie Robinson while playing her. I'd had her call a Sim to best-friend them before work, and in canceling the talk action, I accidentally canceled her carpool. Since she's Captain Hero, that means her carpool doesn't come (she flies off when she leaves for work). So instead I had her walk to work. It seemed to work fine, lot kicked into high speed as she left -- but when she got back:

Uh -- yeah. Invisible Sim is invisible. Changing clothes didn't fix it, so I just restarted without saving. As mentioned, they didn't do much today, so I lost pretty much nothing.
So, yeah, that's my Simming for the day. Now to see about some American McGee's Alice.
