Rules: The Random Town Jump Project

[JudesSims]

I've use that on testing games, you have to do it from the main menu before you go to your town. 
I just wasn't sure if that was allowed, which I am glad that I can as I am attached to this family and I have created a plot that I think will be nice and have some twists to it.  Or at least I am going to try to have some twists to it.

Did it work for you then? Cheats aren't usually allowed except to save a game. But, in a case like this it is fine.

[Janna]

Yes, it worked, I was able to remove the false accusation.  The loss of relationship didn't return, so I adjusted it to what it had been before, use Control and then put the pointer on the meter at the persons photo and move it to the right to increase it and go to the left to decrease it.  I moved Bri and Kearney's back to where it had been and then took the one with the false RI to acquaintance and everything was back to normal.

thank you for the help.

[JudesSims]

Glad it worked, Janna!

I am planning to do this sort of project using some of Metro's Life State Dynasty rules, as my computer also currently hates me and froze up twice while I was playing Isla Paradiso! I like having various life states in the household and also this project will help fix some of the freeze issues. Is it okay if I create this revised ruleset and PM it to you, jude?

Sure! I'll be around here off and on today. I'll try to watch for you

Do we still have to move the same way with the new "Move into a different neighborhood/world" interaction? I'm not sure exactly how it works, seeing as I haven't tried it yet, but it seems to save the step of saving to bin and such...

[JudesSims]

You can use the new method if you wish.

[Janna]

I'm figuring that we can't do this, but I want to ask anyway,  who knows, it may be allowed

Can we give the dragons magical powers above what they can do?  Something that I am considering for my O'Shea story is that when a "bad man" show up one of the dragons, either red or black, will be able to make them forget things such as where they are, what and who they have seen.  I could also use the elixirs to remove memories, put the person to sleep and have them forget what has happened to them, where they have been for a certain period of time or even sleep for a long period of time, such as a year and then not remember anything that has happened to them.  Have a witch cast some type of spell that can be used to protect my sim family. Anything that could have a "magical" aspect to it.

Would any of these be allowed to use?  If not I can up with other methods, but I would like to weave it into the story for the magical effect. 

But I do have a backup plan, I just prefer to use the magical aspect if possible. 

[JudesSims]

Sorry it took me so long to answer...I slept in this morning. There are no restrictions on elixirs. Magic your heart out!

[Janna]

Please, don't feel you have to give a quick answer, I can wait a day or two if need by.  It won't keep me from working on my story as for now it isn't needed, but later on.

Does anyone know why sometimes the photos don't show up?  I was adding another chapter to my story and I noticed that some of the pictures, that had been there before, are now not showing up.

That happens a lot on the showboat thread, I can't see a lot of the photos of homes or other building and it is frustrating that it is now happening on my story. 

[JudesSims]

Where do you have your pictures hosted? The Gallery or somewhere else?

[Janna]

The Gallery,  What has me confused is that the other day they were showing up, not it seems as if they aren't. 

I can go back and redo them, just don't understand why they would all of a sudden stop being able to be seen.

I don't know if anyone else is not seeing them and just not stated it.  Or not had the time to read the story and haven't noticed it. 

[Audren]

I did take a look at your story and was not able to see most of the images. It is strange. I would've attributed it to a bandwidth issue if you used Photobucket, but since you don't, I'm not sure. You might want to make a separate thread on that, if you haven't already.

[Janna]

I'm going tomorrow redo the photos and see if removing them and then putting them back in will fix the problem. 

If not, they I will go I guess to technical help and find out what to do. 

I have seen this a lot on the Showboat thread, and it is frustrating, I want to see what a house, garden or whatever looks like and can't, so don't know if I want to download it. 

EDITED:  I couldn't wait to see what I could do to fix it.  Please someone let me know if they are showing up.

I don't know why this would matter, but the only thing I can think that happened is that I was going through the photos in the Gallery and deleting some that has copies, I accidently uploaded it twice. 
I guess in my deleting I deleted both copies for all of the ones that are not showing up are the ones that I don't have their photos anymore.  I re-added them and then copied them as normally done to the story.
It looks fine to me, but I would appreciate it if someone could check and let me know whether or not they are there.

[JudesSims]

I only see two pictures not showing in Chapter 7.
