Do you normally create a version of your own family?
Do you normally create a version of your own family? Or do you create other types of people, unrelated to yourself?

@Midevil_ChaosI also take inspiration from the Big Bang Theory, probably my favourite comedy show! My first Sim is based on Penny at the very start of it. I mostly use their names for surnames and pets names, I could never do justice to Sheldon but I did name a smart little dog after him and gave him to a Programmer. I once created the entire Heck family from The Middle too and tried to replicate their house, even the above ground pool they had. I use a lot of US TV as inspiration.
I add some of my lots to the Gallery but I just feel weird adding my Sims for some reason.
I'm in the UK but Ibiza was a lovely place to visit. There's no clubbing going on now lol but for me it's all about love of music. I'd be at a concert or a really great club. One of my favourite Sims is a superstar DJ and her story was a lot of fun.
I think the term "partying" is a different thing and not so much a UK term, it's definitely open to interpretation. It conjures up an image of maybe being quite alcohol-centric perhaps but each to their own, no judgement here.
I just went clubbing or to live shows. For me it was just going out dancing to great music. I'm glad to have had those experiences because I loved dancing and now I'm unable to do so any more. We liked to copy as many dance routines as we could possibly remember and I like that aspect in the Sims where you can get them to do a coordinated routine if you have Get Together. My fun Sims do that a lot and I love watching those little routines and dance offs.
My primary condition is muscle wastage which means my back isn't strong. It's not as bad as scoliosis luckily, my friend suffers badly with that.
Oh! You should see my Sheldon. Pretty damn convincing if I do say so myself. You should check out my peeps and lots - I think you'd be very interested. There is nothing like having something as perfect as it can be with the limitations we have. In any event, I think you should totally add yourself to the game :D I for one would be interested in seeing you ingame.
What type of music do you like? 80s, 90s, 2000s? Or more like modern stuff?
Glad to hear it's not as bad as scoliosis. If anything, I hope it's not too bad on you. Physical pain and what not are never fun to deal with, big or small. *hugs*
- @Midevil_Chaos my builds are in the Gallery I think under my Xbox user TensiveBoar1730 or my screen name here, it shows me both names for some reason. I have a lot of technical problems with the Gallery, so it won't show me any other creations except for a few Xbox builds and my own. It really annoys me because I'd love to see creations from players I talk to here. But we do have this great thread:

I can't download creations either, even mine because I get an error code and I lose saves. It's done this for years, so it's lucky I'm a builder!
I like all music and I've seen a lot of bands and DJs, when I was very young it was a hobby to go where music was! My Sims always have music on and I love the karaoke/singing skill. My Sims always sing "Weekender".
I do play as a mini me in Animal Crossing because it's less stressful lol. It's a little version of me, but Sims is a bit more risky I think. I've had a lot of bugs and lost Sims. I'm one of those people who doesn't throw out photos as I think I might be more superstitious than I realised lol. I thought about creating my cat but again, if anything happened to my Sim cat I'd freak out!@simsplayer818
What is the error msg you get and/or symptoms (I.e. black screen etc.)? And do you get it on PC or actually on your Xbox? Unless you were saying you only played it on console and not both (Thanks for the link btw).I have to know, what is your favourite song from the 90s and early 2000s? Also, you said you like all music? Including Death Metal? And no, I don't like that genre looool. I am a Pop fan through and through. What can I say? I'm boring XD. But I had to ask regardless lol.
Oh! Please tell me, are you also a fan of Austin Powers? Mini Me was frigging adorable and hilarious lol. Usually most people don't use the term "mini me". I have to admit, I have never played Animal Crossing, since when I actually learned about it, it was probably last year lol. I only bought a Switch this year because I wanted to have a console on the go when I went to either boring places or hotels when travelling.- @Midevil_Chaos Nope lol, not a fan of Austin Powers unfortunately. But I use the term Mini Me all the time, despite not seeing the movie!
From the 90s I my favourite album is Millennium by Backstreet Boys, which I also saw live (eek Brian, screams). I'd love to create a Sims version based on concerts I went to, we keep asking for devs to make that possible but I don't know if they can. I do love many rock bands but not death metal...or jazz, but most other genres. An amazing 90s song to hear live was Motorcycle Emptiness by Manic Street Preachers. But I also discovered September Song by Earth, Wind and Fire in the 90s when it was re released and it was my favourite at the time.
The error codes are on console as I currently play on next gen Xbox. I've had codes 22 and O and other longer codes, 0 is the one currently causing issues for players. They happen if I download from the gallery or take a photo. I can download one of my rooms from my library but not one of my lots. The codes cause saves to be lost and if they are bad enough they can stay dormant on the console and be triggered in the future. So you never know when you will lose your saves. All you can really do is wipe everything, start again and never repeat the action that caused it. I've lost 100s of beloved Sims that way. So I recreate them, but I have my favourite Sims, families and stories so I actually don't mind remaking them. They are like old friends some of them, especially my explorer Sims as I play them for the longest time. I add families for background and split them into little houses/flats I've made quickly and then move them into Other Households.
