It's been a while, but there is now a new update!

To the Edge of Time - #751 The Tribe

New update! We're back to the current timeline now.
To the Edge of Time - #750 Ambush

I posted a Christmas Special last week. :) It is actually a flash back that takes place between #726 and #727 , in the 5 years interval between those two updates. It felt so nice playing with my old cast again! https://sims3afatwg2.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/Page_016.jpg?w=809&h=1144 https://si...

Thanks for that. :) In all objectivity, I really wouldn't say that the French part is the best one. It is thankfully quite short (comparatively... I only wrote in French until #152 and I'm currently at #749). That's why I recommend people to catch up with the summaries, although even so, the plot is...

No worries, I should've tried to keep my own thread alive. :grin: And I know how frustrating it can be when people only post to showcase their work without actually participating, so I fully understand if you'd have wanted me to post more. Ok, so for anyone who would be interested, I recently publis...

Thank you both!
I'll make sure to post more often.

@Fluffymao: Thank you!! I'm only seeing this now (2 years later, geez...) but if you're see this someday, well... your post made me very happy! I was looking to update this thread since I've moved to a secondary blog but I see it's been moved to the Story Graveyard. ^^; How should I report this? I'm...

Thank you for that very detailed reply! I think you went through all the possibilities for chapter naming, that's really helpful! Now, because my story is not linear (i.e. a chapter rarely is the next part of the previous chapter), I can't really use numbers. I jump sideways constantly, moving from ...

Thank you both for your replies! I'm glad I'm not the only one finding my chapter names super cheesy. ;) The theme of a chapter, mmh... I think that's what's hard to pinpoint sometimes. Because it so much depends on what you want to emphasize. If you choose the wrong name, it could be a give-away, l...

No one has anything to say? :( I'm open to any comments, even negative ones, as long as it's constructive! All I want is to improve and know better what you guys like! I'm updating the story 1 to 4 times a week, so it's actually difficult to post updates on forums too. This update was posted on Mond...

As a story teller, the biggest challenge is to have my Sims stand still when there's a group of them. :D Or avoid that they stare blandly at a wall... That must be because I've used mods right from the start, but I generally find the game hard to play. When I played with motives on (that hasn't happ...

Thank you, that's what I try to do too. :) But it depends also on what you want to emphasize in the chapter. In the one you mention, the fact that there is some kind of mystery is secondary in comparison to the fact that I sent the character away from home. It will become more important though, and ...

Nate and Ivy.
I ❤ them oh-so-much.

Yes, legacies are much easier to deal with!
Unfortunately, my story is not a legacy so I can't use that kind of numbering.

My biggest issue is coming up with chapter names. >.< Earlier on, I used to just number the chapters but my story is loooooong and I was told that "Chapter 612" could frighten people off. :D So I came back to chapter naming and it's a real pain. How do you name your chapters? I generally t...

I'll add my Simblr to this thread as well.

I post my story on it (also on Wordpress), previews of my current game (I try not to spoil), a few very awkwardly made poses, character videos or character memes, etc.
In short, it's a hotchpotch of everything!

My favorite's got to be Seasons, it brings such realism to the game!
But Late Night (cities!) comes quite close too.

Thank you all for your warm welcome! :smooch: Michelle, thank you for sharing your experience with the game. I love to hear about other people's views. :) I have played TS2 a little bit (downloaded it when it was free on Origin a few months ago) but I'm so used to TS3 graphics and open neighborhood ...

Hello everyone! I'm a 30-something simmer from Europe, and I'm looking for a friendly bunch of new people who'd want to share their gaming experience with me. :wave: I was playing the Sims 1 around 2003-2004 and I loved creating crazy houses at the time. I wasn't completely addicted though, and that...
