Thanks for replies :) Glad I have company, although I do feel like a little newb, modwise :D No doubt I'll get more though, there are a couple I'm looking for, but haven't found yet/again. And I agree LMS is awesome, she makes it so easy to check for updates. Now wondering if the mod I want is on her site. Need to check!
And @AyKooChao thanks for the laugh! Took a couple seconds..."No computer? But how are you play.....oh!" :D
@GalacticGal Ancestral play sounds so interesting! Wondering about it too, since I have fairly good knowledge about my ancestors, at least on my fathers side. Someone had a family book written, and it goes back to the 1500's, from Germany to Denmark and then to Norway. I could at least get the names right, all the way down the family tree to my own generation :D No idea how they all looked, though, except my own relatives, of course :)
The family of ancestors I'm playing is also on my father's side! Fortunately, for me, my sixth great-great grandfather became a somebody, so we at least have a clue as to what he actually looked like. Paintings exist. Unfortunately for his first wife, my sixth great-grandmother, we have little more than a vague description of her. She was small and blonde. Another biographer did suggest she was delicate and modest in a manner that was well-suited to the man she married, as in it suited his values. He was born in 1745, she in 1746. They were about nine months apart in age. She was also known for her hospitality and her bravery. (You'd
have to be brave to travel 300 miles southwest in a wagon over roads that were bumpy and not much more than trails, in reality, with seven— yes, I wrote SEVEN children under the age of eleven, one a babe-in-arms. Can you even begin to imagine it?)
