SUL SUL ! NEW SIMBLR !

i'm halo, 23, they/them, and i'm finally getting this blog up and running after spending months lurking simblr. maxis mix & wcif friendly :]

here you can expect to see:         — townie makeovers         — general cas stuff         — storytelling         — gameplay/challenges         — potentially pose cc idk

plan on starting things off with a new NSB playthrough while i work on townie makeovers. after i've got a certain amount of townies finished, i'll slowly start sharing a story i've been writing starring the characters teased below ;] hope you'll stick around for it!

like/reblog if you're a simblr with similar interests, nice to meet y'all!

there isn’t much i can add, but i will say is that we are navigating online spaces that are becoming increasingly anti-black. the internet has emboldened people with a degree of anonymity on par with a klan hood. people do not take anti-black racism seriously at all, and antagonize us with implications of racism, just to feign ignorance when we point it out. know things like this do not come out of nowhere.

it starts with supporting accounts that have been exposed time and time again for being racist.

it starts with white-washing premades and then accusing poc simmers of trying to “police gameplay” when they speak up about it.

you cannot ignore small transgressions and then be shocked that we have created a space in which people feel comfortable using slurs unprovoked.

your anger is good. and needed at times. but what’s more impactful is boosting black simmers. please listen and reblog.

happy black history month to all my beautiful black ppl 🫶🏽

I know I'm screaming into the void here but

CC CREATORS: DO NOT PAYWALL DISABILITY AIDS AND DISABILITY CC.

I'm going to go ahead and operate under the assumption that you maybe didn't know that is a shitty thing to do... but I'm telling you now, it is an absolutely shitty thing to do. So now you know! 👍 (This includes early access btw.)

Tutorial: Camera Position Hotkeys in TAB Mode

Does this sound familiar? You want to take several screenshots from the exact same angle be it for a story, a lookbook, or a CC preview. You tab into free camera mode, take your screenshot, tab out, change poses, tab into free camera mode, and struggle to remember/find the exact camera angle again. Lather, rinse, rage-quit repeat. I did struggle with that. I looked and asked around for a solution, even if it was yet another mod that did what EA failed to do. One day someone dropped a hint, there was a way to set the camera postion, but they didn’t tell how. I used all my google-fu skills and finally found out how to do it. It’s a lifesaver. A fair warning: If you’re anything like me, you’ll use it whenever you take screenhots from now on, just because you can.

Here’s how you can take a picture series like this.

Or this.

1. How to set hotkeys

Press TAB to switch into free camera mode.

Set-up your shot. If you’re happy with it,…

Press CTRL+ 5-9 (top row, not numpad) to save the camera angle.

You can save 5 different camera positions. They’ll be assigned to that hotkey until you overwrite them. Although key 4 is said to be usable as camera hotkey, too it doesn’t work for me.

2. How to use the hotkeys

Press TAB to switch back into free camera mode.

Press key 5-9 and the camera will move back to the saved position. Voila!

Tip: As long as you’re in game mode zoom out as far as you can before re-entering TAB mode. This way all faded-out objects will be visible in TAB mode again. Hit TAB, then your hotkey and enjoy a little tracking shot.

Have fun taking your screenshots! Maybe @thefoxburyinstitute​ finds this worth sharing? I have a feeling this feature is so unknown, it’s almost like an easter egg. It took me almost three years until I found out.

realized i never played with an apartment outside of san myshuno, so i moved sawyer and bonk into a new place
