This past week I’ve been playing more than I’ve been writing, which is both good and bad. Good because I was able to resolve some of the issues in my save. I never did a hard reset everything with master controller at 8+ weeks in, and I saw a post suggesting that after googling about some of my playing issues. It helped a lot! It took the load time from almost half an hour back to about 12 minutes, drastically reduced the amount of time it takes to save, and also fixed a glitch I thought might mean it had become corrupt and in danger of becoming unplayable. (It was crashing to desktop every time I put a YA male in CAS in that save if I clicked on sleepwear, but only in that save, and regardless of how, be it through master controller’s stylist option, the edit in CAS cheat, or just with the dresser.)
Anyway, it’s working much better now, so I’ve been able to play more. I like having the played game 3-7 sim days ahead of where I’ve written so I can keep more long term planning in mind without being so far ahead that I feel like I’ll never catch up. Amazingly, Boyd and Susan are both still alive through where I’ve played, at 93 sim days each, with their death flowers pulled from their inventories. Yay!
Since I don’t have a story chapter ready yet, though, I decided to put up another screenshot and outtake post in the interim. This one doesn’t have any animated woohoo fails, so it’s work safe.
