The Juggernaut

  Congrats, hey small victories. I've yet to talk trying to make animations yet but I might.  

  I remember seeing that as well but if I remember right it really only worked if you had a low end laptop or computer. It involved you using a usb drive as additional ram or something of that nature. Is that what you meant?

  Well, there maybe one on the horizon as of course there's a 980ti looming but we still don't have a actual date. I've heard rumors as early as later this month but who knows. I guess it's intended to be the go between the 980 and the Titan series as the 980ti is supposed to have 6gb of ram. The Titan X has 12gb and also a hefty ass price tag. But once the 980ti drops you could see 980 prices fall, I'm in a similar boat as you I want to step up as well but for me I want to past 1920 x 1080 personally. I know the hardcore people say we don't have GPU's that can run 4k but since I'm not playing Battlefield, Crysis or any first person shooter so I don't need 100fps on the 4k display I want. I'm hoping the 980ti drops and I can grab to 980's to sli. Always remember there's always gonna be a newer faster video card, it's the nature of the beast that computer gaming is......

  You can always check youtube and the internet for performance benchmarks and it depends on what you play. I have a 780ti which has been an awesome card but since I'm stepping up it won't work anymore and it's a power heavy card compared to the 900 series. Here's one review but people will argue video cards till the cows come home. Just research and try to make an informed decision.   >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67O-0pvNS6c&hd=1

  Sims 3 doesn't need a lot, it could just be coded better. The only way Sims 3 is using 8 gig of ram is with a edit like this MoreRamUsage and I still don't know if that works. Sims 3 is still a 32 bit game and we're just now getting our feet wet with 64 bit games. I do know CC will bog it down as my Sims 3 folder in my documents is over 35 gig as I have a gang of cc.

  One thing I do know is I'll have to manually add my new video card in Sims 3 but the instructions for that are out there and not hard to find. Until animations get there for Sims 4 I'm holding out.

That's what's up, I'm not home now but the slider pack isn't merged is it?

  Did you mean to put this in the Skyrim section instead of the Simlab section?

  What Gecko said and yes try to stay away from the Sims with a lot of custom sliders. I love her Sim creations as see on her tumblr page....http://kurasoberina.tumblr.com/   But she uses over 100+ sliders I think and you may not even be able to find them all as some creators have moved on from Sims 3. The only premade Sims I use are those that creators say are a base. For example, I suck at making asian sims from scratch so I downloaded an asian female sim base from missfortunesims and use her to start. Making you own is the best though I know CAS isn't the most swift part of the game.

    I know it would be tedious but as long as everything is installed you could just add it in CAS.  

  Thanks Josh, I found that out on my first set of screenshots. On fraps f10 is screenshot by default and I had to change some buttons around.

Giving Lady666's animations a trial run.....

I found BurntWaffles sweetfx on Tumblr, so far I like it to but to each his own......https://www.tumblr.com/search/sweetfx-sims-3   I use this with the HQ mod here and I'm now getting killer screens...http://www.loverslab.com/blog/211/entry-904-sims-3-what-cc-is-that/     EDIT: Just a FYI when it comes to SweetFX, it will stop your Sims launcher from working so in order to install simpacks you must remove SweetFX then install simpacks then add SweetFX again once they are installed.

    Really nice to see someone carry this project forward. I never really looked at mod the sims to see how it was done.  

These are off the chain, great work!!! Remember people this is not a contest. It's to make our Sims games way more fun and enjoyable. The way I see it there's never gonna be too many chefs in the kitchen....

  I don't know if they changed it in the PC version but when I played on my PS3 you met strippers at a strip club and once you got them to like you, you could make booty calls to their place. It's been a while but I don't remember hookers on the street.

After Dusk Sims and Whos The What's animations are geared to M4M if you haven't tried those, at least until Amra decides whether or not to go that route.

  Thanks, for right now I'm using BurntWaffles high, I might try ultra just to see if I see a difference, the only drawback is you must have fraps running and take your screenshot with fraps if you just hit c the screenshot won't add sweetfx.

    It's qool and no worries, in the Skyrim section of this forum they go nuts over posts with a ton of quotes and no spoiler use and also on people who put a ton of photos up without using the spoiler function. I don't remember seeing a moderator having a problem with it and it could just be forum mess and that's not just LL either. I'm on forums for sports and android cell phone and LL is Utopia compared to those.. Keep playing and posting pics...peace.  

Still figuring out skins and cmar penis settings, plus fraps

Just testing  a new default skin, SweetFX, HQ Mod and CMAR penis instead of Crammy you guys see any difference, I think I do. No photoshop or gimp here. Nice to see a shadow on the penis in the 69 shot. I'm really digging Sweetfx and the HQ mod together.

  Real nice, the only thing is if you're going to do a gang of photos it might be best to use the spoiler button to condense the post. Just highlight the attachments and hit the bubble with the exclamation point. Thanks for including a shot of the strapon edit I did. Nice to see it in use in someone's game other than mine...rofl....  

Does any have a non corrupt version of these?? I lost these in a HDD crash and the ones on her blog appear to be missing the meshes and texture and there's no answer on fixing them...http://xxxkinkywiqxxx.blogspot.com/2011/10/empress-jekaterina-add-on-afam.html

  Madlen's shoes are just stoopid, an awesome creator. Great job as always Josh!!

  The only way I've ever done that and it was tedious was to get rid of all the default families and add your own to each house then only play with the sim you want but that was some tedious mess. I have no clue if there's a quick way to do it. There are eyes everwhere just make sure they are non default as you can only have one and there are eye sliders out there too.
