Rotating nonsense

Yes I know it's hard to cleanly rotate in sims 3 but I'm gonna do it anyways I had to let it go because my temporay computer I had to use after an unfortunate water incident couldn't handle ts3 my new computer though it has it's own issues can so here we are. Meaning, I feel like I need to relearn some stuff so my nonsense will go here. With or without a complete story also yes if you're intimated by other threads or not sure what to share feel free to use this thread as well just be fair and don't drop like twenty pictures in one post. (Or 19 sneaky snakes :D )

My first new family in a long while...
The Gardes.

Admittedly not much going on just moved in only played for a little while but this is Roy, Janine and their daughter Mckenna, they have a cat too but I can't remember his name right now.

He is up to no good there, not sure if I care for the plumbobs in the way but can't remember if we could cheat those off, after I found him I was thinking he should leave and play with his toys. As if out of spite he jumped out and went to the other tub to play in that one too. The absolute nerve.

They are a lovely pair and I didn't have any sound on so I don't know if she is gonna get pregnant or not but yeah.

I am having an unfortunate glitch and I can't get into the future and island paradise to finish installing but I'll keep trying because I am not the tech smart level that I can mess with anything to make it work but they didn't seem to mind the missing content.

Okay bye.

    You can always check to see if a sim is pregnant by telling them "go here." If you don't have an option to run or walk, she's pregnant. (I play with sound off too.)

    I think the 3am thing is always worse the first night in a new world and better after that, but I do use Overwatch.

    I applaud you for trying rotational play in TS3. I gave up. Even with NRAAS and a significant time investment in mods, I still had major issues such as finances/income not properly freezing across households. I finally conceded to the notion that TS3 is meant to be single-household legacy. Whenever I get bored of playing that single household, I just switch back to the Sims 2.

    @simmerorigin you know, I may be a glutton for punishment so that could be why it's appealing to me, not to mention since I am preparing for their trip I think one of her suitors needs a wife and a baby. Though yes, sims 2 will probably always be superior for rotating.

    Oh about the glitch I tried the workaround suggested on ea help and that worked the content is fine and I am relieved because every year these older games last is another year we don't have to give them up completely.

    Now for their neighbors don't know if anyone is looking that is familiar with ts3 worlds but whatever, this is in Aurora Skies. My next family are premades, the Ingbergs.

    I am slowly adding to their house, yes I know it's best not to have too much for the game to load however if you're going to live in such a big house good to add something to the empty space. Anyhow I guess Jakob didn't want what Iris made so he opted to eat this instead, I wonder if given the choice if Jonas would have wanted that salad.
    https://i.imgur.com/h0LPt9ol.jpg
    See massive emptiness, ah Iris was preparing for bed and things seemed to be going well until I hit 3 am I of course forgot you're not supposed to use speed 3 on most computers at 3 am. It makes it bug out and lag for a bit, which reminded me I was brave for coming back without nrass mods...lol. I am a realist in that if the game is no fun to you mods don't mean anything as they rely on the game, however they are very much needed for some old bugs and what not that plagued this game.

    Once I was free from the lag I noticed on of their new horses roaming around, I had them get Hope and Pegasus I think this one is named.
    https://i.imgur.com/C1IUa4zl.jpg
    Then I was retaught horses need even more space because only a foal can share one of these boxes with an adult.

    It was smooth but I know better gonna have to do some more downloading and they are gonna have to have more kids than the one she's carrying because....the space!

    Checking out some other towns, went to starlight shores and I got this lady here a new job..don't think she's too happy about it.
    https://i.imgur.com/HH5QP0p.jpg
    Not sure why but her daughter was checking for monsters under her bed while her dad was preparing dinner and she was too afraid to go to her own bed so instead he let her sleep with her mom instead I don't remember kids doing that but it's cute.

    Been a while I know, I think it crashed on me and I was being bitter or I was just distracted whatever I'm playing again.
    Spoiler
    https://i.imgur.com/PnjhzMah.jpg
    So I gave Vlad a makeover, the premade vampire from Bridgeport and this is my new sim that I made just to be his lady friend, I just took her over to his apartment and she couldn't think of any other way to say nice to meet you then showing him her phone. He didn't mind because he thought she was hot, so that's nice.
    https://i.imgur.com/j6EY9yFh.jpg
    He contemplated that for a moment then decided yes she was in fact, entirely his type and he would look at her phone all day and night if she wanted him to. Cause that's what you do...okay that's what he does.
    https://i.imgur.com/1exUhosh.jpg
    I took her to one of the vampire clubs hoping they would meet but when she invited him I think he was going to work, so she attempted to flirt with a celebrity, tell me why this loser wasn't even wearing shoes and had to the nerve to say she should impress him. I think not *double snap*.
    https://i.imgur.com/ewl1HNKh.jpg
    She decided to flirt with the bouncer she had just bribed and he was all about it but I stopped her cause I couldn't remember if we were allowed to romance the bouncers, I know it gets moody.
    https://i.imgur.com/xKrQLLrh.jpg
    To ease the pain in his heart he bled his lonliness over the rejection into spooky stories he shared with the furniture.
    https://i.imgur.com/UCZ7Igbh.jpg
    So I took her home to let her daydream about her would be vampire husband.

    Been playing for a bit in her save, haven't seen much on the online dating but I have found the guys that like her they seem to just pop up then I saw some of them were living near by where I plopped her. That amuses me.
    https://i.imgur.com/7hvQQYvh.jpg
    The thing is I couldn't remember if this was one of them, he's a one star celebrity and this is their first time meeting.
    https://i.imgur.com/gqvJI7Zh.jpg
    And this happened, they weren't even on a date, it has been awhile but I've never seen this before, I guess she's charming? I don't know why she always picks this outfit she's not even proper but it does work on her. Oooh it's the dress he likes lol, but you're too late I have plans.
    https://i.imgur.com/VwsnIQ7h.jpg
    I moved her so she could have more space and also it was time Vlad moved in, I really liked how it turned out though I'm rusty on decorating, then I had a glitch with the store content not working which never happened to me before but found the fix online.
    https://i.imgur.com/hJS7zAXh.jpg
    She caught him by surprise to say the least, he was all too eager though.
    https://i.imgur.com/vsCUiYNh.jpg
    She's been wanting to go to France and I found it funny this was when he decided he wanted to go to so I made a few small additions so they can get a trip in.
    https://i.imgur.com/dDKbwzlh.jpg
    He wanted to go to the fall festival, she disappeared while I was following him and when she came back she was a clown....I think there is a joke here, a clown and a vampire compete in a pie eating contest...yeah definitely a joke.
    https://i.imgur.com/ua2mDxkh.jpg
    She beat him then they took on the haunted house.

    https://i.imgur.com/MlLqFh5h.jpg
    Although, just as he was relaxing and really enjoying his time with his new girlfriend she had to leave to go to work, he was not amused. :p

    Just came to lighten up the post, got a new computer and while our internet is not terrible it's not that high so it'll be a bit as I slowly get my game back, it's never easy lol. that's okay once it's in I can just start a new rotate.
    Spoiler
    So I got a couple of her suitors mixed up, he was pretty far away but found that he did have someone even though he wanted so desperately to cuddle up to Cassidy. Anyhow, after having his heart ripped apart he decided to actually make his friend here his girlfriend, she was older and a five star celebrity...so I let her stay famous and made her younger. Not sure she'd be too happy about being the somewhat rebound but as far as Kai is concerned what she doesn't know won't hurt her. He really can't understand why she chose the vampire over him.
    https://i.imgur.com/jSZnA7Lh.jpg
    She also has a kid, I think she adopted or whatever the story was on the house, the kid and Kai hate each other, there was someone else living here but I didn't understand her connection so I kicked her out. Also unrelated, I have never seen this mirror desk before, how cool.
    https://i.imgur.com/lXyxmZrh.jpg
    She woke up with a desire to serenade him with her drumset, he was starving but listened to the whole thing and was charmed even though he was thinking about Cassidy a little bit.
    https://i.imgur.com/zTa8zzEh.jpg
    I forgot about the zombie thing while they were hanging out in the hot tub so I closed them in with a fence and a nice glass room for their outdoor gym. Kind of funny to see the failed tanning, I guess that is what you get for falling for a guy with obsessive tendencies...? Okay it's not her fault but he has like no relationship really with Cassidy, he's off.
    https://i.imgur.com/rXhsCo3h.jpg
    As much as her son hates seeing them together he does love his mother so he stays mostly quiet about it, as Kai does for her.
    https://i.imgur.com/Edty7Deh.jpg
    Which is good because he's not going anywhere.
