It's been a while since I last posted a video on YouTube. This has been due to a combination of factors.
Firstly, I have had consistent issues with using the free software I have been using to edit and narrate my videos.
When I made the first video of my proposed McFluff series I worked on it for about 2+ full days and as I was saving the final version ready to load to YouTube it said it was corrupted. I'd never seen that particular issue before so I just gave up on it for now.
Secondly, I have purchased a new computer and I was planning to buy new software to allow me to edit and narrate my videos with something that would hopefully work better. It has taken me this long to get the computer up and running due to various issues at home. But the new computer is now working and I have the new software and this latest video is my first attempt at using it. I think I'm getting the idea.

And regarding the McFluffs, I have since expanded my story and will be starting the videos with a full-blown prequel showing the back story of where I originally planned to start the videos. This back story includes a certain amount of witchcraft, a lot of cats and lots of ice sculptures. I'm currently recording video for this prequel.
I was initially planning to use a few screen shots from this prequel as part of my original idea for the McFluff videos. But my main sim in the prequel managed to complete the one and only tomb sequence that the Isla Paradiso Bunch have so far not been able to complete. Yes, she got into the tombs under the Nectary in France and completed them. I recorded the process because that was the only place I couldn't get the Isla Paradiso Bunch into and that was due to a bug in the program - the adventure simply disappears half way through the sequence of initial tasks they have to get through to get the key to get into the tombs.
I still have hopes for getting Craig into the Nectary tomb but realistically I doubt it will happen. So I was delighted and surprised when I was able to record another sim doing it. One thing led to another and I decided I'd just record the whole McFluff saga and start at the beginning instead of half way through it.

I am about to make a series of videos about Caroline's story. I've recorded enough for a few videos.
Caroline is a sim living in Isla Paradiso and her function is to get me some of the badges I have so far not managed to get. She is doing very well and has recently been joined by her friend Wilma. These two ladies may make an appearance in parts of the McFluff prequel.

The Isla Paradiso Bunch Episode 35
https://youtu.be/fXHkT8vlDHI
Episode 35 is slightly shorter than usual.
Episode 36 may be a little longer than usual.
In Episode 34 they have arrived in France and Muriel gets an opportunity from the Adventure Board to investigate the Celtic Foray. She goes off to do that and takes Sam with her to help.
In Episode 35 Haley, Josephine, Judy, Jeannie, Dianna and Craig decide to give the Adventure Board a miss and visit the little fishing hole while Muriel and Sam investigate the tomb under the Celtic Foray. Judy and Co plan to enjoy the day fishing, catching butterflies, picking flowers and taking time to chat and relax.
At the end of the video Haley takes an interest in some large boulders near the fishing hole. She encourages Judy to see if she can do something to find out what's under them. Judy manages to reveal something interesting and Episode 36 will be the full investigation of that particular 'something interesting'.
I hope you enjoy watching Episode 35.
Happy Simming
