Love your chill style!! Have been binge watching your series 💜 also your mod list is impressive!! Took me 15 min to just read it, and I read quickly. Can't imagine how long it took you to put all of them into play, love to see the dedication
Thank you so much! Yeah haha I’m addicted to mods but I’m proud of my collection! It did take a long time to find them all and also some edits had to be made for compatibility and stuff so I’m always happy to offer advice and my edited files in my discord😊 Really glad you’re enjoying it!
Running a date and the headmaster scenario at the same time, I am seriously impressed! I love this series 😊 Can't wait to see how Harris and Hamish grow up. Thank you for showing how to use your aspiration calculator, I like that it includes personality and interests, that makes a lot of sense to me. I'm going to start using it in my games and see how it goes!
I’m so glad you’re enjoying it! Yeah haha I think I took on more than I could manage to successfully commentate over🤣 I’m really glad you like my aspiration calculator and are going to give it a try☺️
Oh wow that calculator turned out so good! That must be so satisfying to use now that it's done, especially having created it yourself 🥰 I sympathize with you so much on the lighting issues: lighting and sound are both equally infuriating and a complete mystery to me. Often, following tutorials on how to improve it just ends up making things worse, or creating a host of new issues instead 😓 It's so annoying and draining. The best tip for lighting I can give, although I by no means have a perfect set up myself, is to light the green screen up well and evenly, separately from yourself. Then, you need a second light for yourself. That should do it, but from my experience, a set-up that was giving a good result in the previous video can look absolutely horrific the next time you sit down to record. So yeah, don't feel bad about that because it is very hard; that's just the thing with yt that people don't often think about. It's not just recording, putting it together and uploading it; you literally have to be a producer, actor, sound technician, light technician, camera man, editor, quality checker, pr manager and so on 😂 I suppose we have to accept that perfection is near impossible all things considered, but it's a hard pill to swallow. It was exciting to see the family progress, and the birth of the twins. Loved the names you picked and how you came up with them ❤ Already looking forward to the next video in the series 😊
Thank you so much for the encouragement and advice!😊 It really is so tricky, so much goes into making a video as you said and people have no idea! It can easily be a full time job. I have definitely gone down the routes of following tutorials that have made things worse and thinking I've got it right only for it to be not the same at all the next time I record. What makes it worse is that my recording setup is temporary, I put my greenscreen and ringlight away when not using them so then don't set them up exactly the same each time. I don't think I really have the space to introduce more lights either so just got to make do. Tea Addict has given me a tutorial on how to record the game and facecam separately to then edit out the greenscreen in editing instead. This might have better results as it'll take the pressure off the recording trying to edit the greenscreen out live. Of course this probably means I'll get to editing then realise I just can't quite edit it fully out right but at least then I can just delete the shoddy facecam footage for one episode and hopefully get it right the next time😂
Thanks for sharing your aspiration calculator! I've never used any so I don't really favor one over the other, but in defense of a high interest in sci-fi being associated with pleasure, sci-fi isn't science as much as it is fiction. I feel like most people would relate it to entertainment more than knowledge, like being a Star Trek fan doesn't necessarily have anything to do with wanting to acquire knowledge. That's probably why it counts as going towards the pleasure aspiration in that other calculator.
Oh yeah I totally get the logic behind it in terms of real life Sci-Fi but in the Sims 2 since they talk about Aliens and Space Ships and Robots, it tends to be the Knowledge sims that roll wants to stargaze and meet aliens and for people to get abducted and to improve their robot building talent, so that’s why I associate it to that. Similarly if Aspirations were real I wouldn’t say that Paranormal links to Knowledge since its more belief than fact but due to how in Sims 2 its nearly always the knowledge sims that roll wants for becoming occults, thats why I link that to it too
I also tried the prom and afterschool activities mod but i had to take it out because i sent miranda capp to prom and everytime she tried to come home the game would crash. I know you have to remove the prom memory in sim p.e if you take out the mod but I could not find this memory in sim p.e, so I gave up on playing veronaville and i wont be using this mod again, its a shame too because i really liked it.
oh no that's so sad to hear! Weird, like I said the little problem I had in this video was the only time I've had an issue with it...I really hope it stays that way!
