The Clancy Legacy
The Clancy Legacy 3.1


Catch up:
1.1
2.1 | 2.2 | 2.3

Last we left off, Dove was pregnant, her brothers and sisters had resigned themselves to a long tragic existence as townies, and Ava's right nipple was constantly on show. Oh, and Dove was in labour.

I've just had an email from TSR offering me a 30% discount if I get a paid account with them (I once did, don't judge me, I was new to the fandom - is Sims a fandom?). OMG wow! 30%! That's only 70% less than The Booty offers, and The Booty isn't publishing account details. Golly-gosh-wow! Booty look out, TSR is back!

For fuck's sake. I would dearly love to delete my account with TSR, sadly it's not an option.

The Clancy Legacy
The Clancy Legacy 2.3

OMG, teh happinez! My computer blew up a few months ago, and after finally getting off my arse and installing The Sims, I found a back-up of my Clancy family on an old disc. Ok, I had played the kids up to college, and now Jake and Elwood are now toddlers, but whatever! I have Ava and Captain Dumbass back! Oh, the happiness.

Catch up:
1.1
2.1 | 2.2

If you cannot be bothered to catch up, the recap is: Ava is a family sim, and she is married to the ex-vampire, Captain Dumbass (whose name I have changed using InSim, so I have no idea what he was really called). They have six children (three lots of twins): Corey and Carrie, Dana and Dove, and Jake and Elwood.

Ava was murdered by the Nanny, and Captain Dumbass moved in The Not-Mum.

I love/hate them all, so I have no idea who might end up being heir. Although I do love Dove a little bit more than everyone else.

Oh, and another thing, the kids looked like chipmunks in my last update and now they all look like angels. I have not done anything to them to change their looks - the difference is: brand new computer with an extra gig of ram, heavenly default replacement skins, and me discovering Gadwin for awesome screen caps, and The Booty for pretty hair and clothing. Oh, and Dove and Ava's hair are different in this update because I accidentally removed their meshes.
Downside of replacement skins? Ava's right nipple is constantly on show. Ignore it.

My legacies are on hiatus at the moment. I'm not giving them up or anything like that, I'm simply waiting to buy a new computer. My current computer, parts of which date back to the year 2000, keeps crashing. I think it's due to overheating, but generally this computer is on its last legs.

Basically, I can do anything, providing I don't do too much.
I can look on YouTube for approximately three videos.
Any more than that: Crash!

I can transfer some of my files to my external drive.
Any more than 1GB: Crash!

I can Sim, providing I don't go past the neighbourhood chooser screen.
Otherwise: Crash!

I can look at LJ, so long as I avoid certain pages.
Look at [info]sim_rants: Crash!

I should be getting one within a month. Maybe a little longer.

If it is longer, I shall have to kill something.

Apologies.

The Cobb Legacy
The Cobb Legacy 1.1

Well, since my last legacy crashed and burned on generation 2, thanks to a couple of dodgy downloads, I’m being extra careful this time.

So, let’s get started. This is Netitia, known as Nettie, my new founder. As you can see from her stats, she’s not the nicest person in the world (more of a Wilma than a Nettie... points to anyone who gets that). But she’s cute, and that’s what counts. If you don’t believe me, check how many people loved Danica Dallas.

I have no idea exactly what I installed, but I do think it was part of an all-in-one house set, but whatever it was, it killed my computer.  Or at least, corrupted my little Simmies to death.  I've tried removing bits and pieces of what I downloaded, but thanks to my killer obsession with putting things in the "right" folder, I scattered it all over the place, and have no idea exactly what killed my Sims.

So, I have a new policy on downloads, download something, make a new folder, extract it there, test, and if the test proves successful, then I move things around to my liking.

That said, my little Simmies are dead (this time for good, Ava).  So, I've done a new install, and re-downloaded everything, and now I'm starting a new legacy.  I wish I had backed up my neighbourhoods a little more often.  I'm  going to miss Captain Dumbass.

RIP Ava (again), Captain Dumbass, The Not-Mum, Carrie, Corey, Dana, Dove, Jake and Elwood.  I shall miss you.

PS: Elwood was going to be heir.  He turned out real pretty.

So, I've had this journal a month and done nothing with it.  Awesome.

Well, I have three main legacy families, Jones, Clancy and Bates.  I'm hoping I get some readers as soon as I post something.  For now, I just wanted to post something that proved I'm not some weird spammy journal that randomly friended Simmers.
