Twallan's Master Controller
Hi! I just wanted to ask you some question about Twallan's Master Controller. As you already said on my talk page, you said that this mod such a handy mod. Well - I'm going to install it but I'm afraid that it will crash my game. Is that mod safe for my game? Thank you very much!  Dini  ( Let's talk! )  09:19, April 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks a lot for the info, Nikel! I already asked my friend about that. The mods are pretty good. Maybe I will install it later. Too lazy, hehe :D Thank you, once again!  Dini  ( Let's talk! )  11:39, May 3, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi Nikel! Thank you for the info that you'd write on my talk page! I, finally, installed Twallan's Master Controller. Such a greaat mod! This is the first time I used mod -_- Thaanks!  Dini  ( Let's talk! )  09:53, May 4, 2013 (UTC)

 * May I ask you a question again? Sorry for bothering you. In my Aunt's computer, the MC ran softly (the patch of the game still Patch 1.38 while in my laptop is 1.50. When I tried to download the MC for Patch. 1.50, I couldn't use it. The notice that told me about MC already installed to the game did show. But, when I started to play the game, the game suddenly stopped working. It has happened twice and I've been delete and made new Mods and Packages folder many times, download resource.cfg, read the tutorial on many sites and watched the tutorial on youtube. Still, it couldn't work. Could you help me? And .. can you explain it on Indonesian?._. -_- Thanks before! .______.  D

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
Hey Nikel. Long time haven't chatted for a while with you, or any TSW members, heh. I'm busy for a while, and I have examinations now.

Besides that, have you heard of EA's announcement on a big announcement for The Sims Series? I bet it's The Sims 4. What do you think?

TWikia Talkie 17:31, May 5, 2013 (UTC)


 * Haha sure. Shall talk to you tomorrow, when I'm free. :)

The Sims 4
Just wanted to hear your opinion about The Sims 4. Here's what I have to say...

IMO, this was very expected. I mean it was so hinted at these last few days, it was too obvious that it would be announced. I'm always open to everything. I'm thinking positively, and that this is EA's last chance to make The Sims right. The logo kind of bugs me, but it reminds me of The Sims 1. The Sims themselves... well, it's an improvement against the pudding-faced Sims 3 Sims...

I want to see more, but I think that release date of 2014 is a bit too soon. Then again, they might have worked on this game for a while. Since, if you remember, they leaked it back in 2010 (like The Sims 3 being leaked in 2006). I'm so glad it's offline, though it's bound to have some online features. I mean, why would they hint them then?  Cavia (  wheek  •   speak  ) 16:45, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

 * Ah I see. Well at least I will try to remove anything that's not in the new releases, and since The Sims 4 is announced, I can expect many vandalism coming soon.

Work as an Administrator
Hello again, my friend. I think I need some advice. Sometime ago, I made my own wikia, of a Manga series that has long ended by now. However, I'm not doing very well with keeping it active and lively, since I lack experience in being a founder of a wikia page. In truth, I don't even know for sure if I'm the Administrator, or how do I make others Administrators or not. Help please?Kajune (talk) 04:20, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

Re: Chance card
Honestly, I'd rather not do that. I'm not a fan of sub-pages, as I think it makes it more difficult for people to quickly find what they're looking for. If it really is an issue, we can find some way to format the Chance Card tables so they don't look too much like the other tables. But, as I said, I'd rather not move them. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 10:31, May 24, 2013 (UTC)

Userboxes
You have your userboxes stored in a way you can open and close the userboxes. How did you do this? Is there a usable tutorial or template for it? Greets, Dutch-tom (talk)

Hacking
Hi. I'm not familiar with wiki formatting, so please forgive me if I muck this up. I'm the anonymous user who recently edited the Genius trait page regarding its alleged benefit to the Hacking hidden skill. In your subsequent edit, you stated that the skill never mentions Hacking. However, ingame, the trait tooltip states something to the effect of "''Geniuses... blah blah... make excellent hackers." ''I simply wanted to point this out and absolve any confusion.

I would also like to thank you for removing the disputed point. As someone who has previously only made very minor edits, I did not feel I knew enough about formatting to properly remove anything from the page. I'm glad my edit was seen by you, and you were able to make things right.

Keep up the good work. I really hope I've done this correctly. :)

Hi Nikel! As you may/may not of seen what I put on Kelly's Talk page. I'm guessing she is absent so I would like you to help me.

Blank Sim articles created by 78.25.122.75
I notice that of these articles contain "? - не", which I assume is Cyrillic. Also, the initial edits this user made to Sim State University added names which appear as though they might be Russian. I don't know, but I think we have to consider the possibility that this user does not have an English-language version of The Sims 2, and does not have sufficient English to finish the articles. Dharden (talk) 23:00, July 20, 2013 (UTC)

Genie Initialization Fix?
In your opinion, how important is it to use Cyjon's Genie Initialization Fix with FreeTime? Dharden (talk) 21:57, July 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * No idea. I didn't have it, and I thought it was only useful when we have Visitor Controller all along. From the description, it sounds like the Genie is treated as visitor when first initialized, so something unexpected might be able to happen.

Headshots
Hi Nikel, I made headshots of TS2 Caliente sisters with in-game icons of heart and Simoleon. Can I upload them as new version of existing ones? Mate1234 (talk) 05:16, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Ok, i will replace Nina´s one with black background and Dina´s one with in-game Simoleons, which is, in my opinion very good. Mate1234 (talk) 08:26, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Well, Nina and Dina had those headshots for 6 years, so I made their headshots with in-game icons. Mate1234 (talk) 08:33, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Still, some headshots have white background and some have black background. So, I think it´s not so neccessary to have those monotonous headshots. We can put in some creativity. Mate1234 (talk) 09:11, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Probably, if we really don´t need that sort of headshots, can I create their headshots from both games (like ) and put the icons on them? Mate1234 (talk) 09:27, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Please? Mate1234 (talk) 09:31, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Hello there! ^_^ I believe Nina and Dina's headshots are very incosistent with the others, if we were put some creativity, we would have to do the same with every other Sim (putting icons depending on their aspiration). I don't believe this is right, I think they should be replaced by the others. However, I checked the file's history and it's not there nor have I found them, what happened to them??? :( -- RoseGui ✿ ( talk ) 09:42, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Shoving Sim
I did a check in SimPe and according to it, Mortimer is the 1st Sim created in Pleasantview and Daniel is the 5th Sim created. So, I don´t think zhat John will ever show up to shove the spying Sim. I´m going to delete that. Mate1234 (talk) 17:42, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Remember, when in Sim Browser, list Sims by filename. That will show them in the order they´re created. Mate1234 (talk) 17:48, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

I have no idea why John has an early instance. You don´t need to check Strangetown, Veronaville and neighborhoods from The Sims Stories. It´s correct. Mate1234 (talk) 18:10, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

Checked. While playing Curious family, Olive came to shove Lazlo. Then I killed her, looked again through the telescope again, and Nervous arrived to shove him. I also remember playing Riley´s story. I bought her the telescope, and Fiona arrived saying something like this: ˝It is not nice to spy your neighbors!˝. Mate1234 (talk) 18:30, August 6, 2013 (UTC)

I know that you have to delete the neighborhood from documents and then copy and paste the unplayed neighborhood from the program files, but whenever I do that all of the storytelling pictures disappear from the game except the template picture on the menu screen. And if you don't know the answer could you please tell me a user that could help.Joey.eyeball (talk) 05:13, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your help, I just did that with Pleasantview, Strangetown, and Veronaville. I also noticed that there was a hidden picture of the Baxter Family, maybe it can be put as a easter egg or something like that! Joey.eyeball (talk) 09:21, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

The Lobos Family
Hello, just letting you know that The Lobos Family page has The Sims 3: Seasons icon at the top instead of The Sims 3 Store icon. I would edit that but I can't seem to edit that bit. Bye :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joey.eyeball (talk • contribs) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~

Game guides online
Hi there Nikel, I just have a small question to ask you. I found a Game guide online for The Sims 3 and I would like to create something similar and put it on the wiki. But, I don't think it's allowed - although I saw that you created a guide using information from a site. So, here's my question; will I be allowed to create a game guide using the information from the site I found the guide on the site? I'll give the author of the original guide credit. Thanks for taking the time to answer! <font color="#6B1D51">Beds (<font color="#512d17">parlare - <font color="#512d17">da leggere ) 14:31, August 22, 2013 (UTC)

RE: A little maintenance
Hey! Thank you very much :) At first I nearly had a heartattack when I saw so many changes were made (At another wiki I go to, occassionially, some guy thought he had the right to edit my story because he thought things didn't flow or didn't like a paragraph,  something along those lines) Then I thought they were deleted because I haven't updated it yet XD

I really appreciate the changes, I still don't 100% know my way around wiki's. I've been a bit occupied recently with studies and raising money for vacation as well as RPG's (Role Playing Games) and two other stories I'm working on, on different sites >_< Not to mention I'm hiding the fact that I write from my parents and everytime my mom comes in my room I quickly minimize the notepad screen. So now she thinks I'm hiding things XD So I really do appreciate what you did! Jysella Plazma Coldstalker (talk) 17:16, September 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, before I've was painting, and then I was making friendship bracelets and I think a few other things. And every time I made something like that, she wanted to sell it. Publishing isn't cheap plus my work isn't good enough. And I think she would butt in and want me to change stuff >_< (Trust me, it's not for the better. She'll mess quite a few things up and get upset when I don't take her suggestions or so called 'constructive criticism') —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jysella Plazma Coldstalker (talk • contribs) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~

The Sims 3 Network Error
Sorry, this issue came up in my game and it is too aggrivating to ignore. Whenever I start The Sims 3 and it goes onto the main menu, I try to log in but a message always pops up saying:

<p class="MsoNormal">“You need the latest game update in order to log in. Open The Sims 3 Launcher and select “Game Updates” to download the latest update or continue without logging in.”

<p class="MsoNormal">So I then go quit the game and open The Sims 3 Launcher and.... it says that the game is up to date. I clicked Refresh but nothing happened. I heard that you need to log in for Store cotent but it just won't let me. And I guess that this is why I can't access Riverview in my game even though I did download it. Please help! Joey.eyeball (talk) 05:33, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">I checked the Launcher and it said that my version was 1.38, so I don't know why it said it was up to date. How do I patch it manually? It says that it is on a automatic update. Does that got anything to do with it? Why is EA so mean to me, I just want to play Riverview! Joey.eyeball (talk) 08:38, September 11, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">Seriously, am I missing something here? Nikel, are you sure that link works properly? I tried downloading it 4 times but it keeps on saying that it failed. I just want to download the patch so I can play Riverview (which I did download). Joey.eyeball (talk) 20:29, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">Sorry about not answering your question and if you mean logged onto The Sims 3 Launcher and The Sims 3 Website then, yeah, I am connected to EA. I am logged onto everything to do with The Sims 3 except the actual game which still won't let me log in. As well as the update saying that the patch file could not be read. I wonder what that actually means? Joey.eyeball (talk) 08:03, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">Well, once the downloading is nearly finished, something pops up with me expecting it to be something about it finishing, but no, it says that it can not read the file and then canceling the process. And if the file type is the name of what is called, then its "TS3_1.57.62.0230xx_update(1).exe". But I have another question, how did you download Lucky Palms? So you have to click the download button on The Sims 3 Website Riverview Page, then it downloads and you start The Sims 3. You click the "New Game" button on the Main Menu where it should be in the list of neighborhoods, right? Because that didn't work so I thought that you might have to log in but it says that I need to update my game. I think that I missed something out so thats why I need to ask you how you did it with Lucky Palms. Joey.eyeball (talk) 23:56, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">I pretty sure that I did install it. Is it supposed to still have the download button still available? But there is 1 other thing that I just remembered, when it started downlading, I accidentally exited the page. But when I started the page up again, it said that the world was installed. Do you think that I didn't install the game properly and I should try downloading it again? Joey.eyeball (talk) 06:57, September 15, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, Riverview was not on the list of neighborhoods. And I checked The Launcher and it wasn't there either with the installed content. I bet it was because I accidentally exited the page while downloading. Should I try downloading it again? Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:52, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

<p class="MsoNormal">I finally managed to sucessfully download and install Riverview. Thank you so much for help! Now I just got to try and download the aggrivating Patch 57 :) Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:48, September 17, 2013 (UTC)

RE: Hello
Hi Nikel, thanks for the feedback. I thought that I was using the template guidelines. The template specifies to only use the fields required, and I've been using a preformatted tamplate that follows the syntax specified below. For some of the templates I updated that didn't follow the order it is possible that this order wasn't followed as I just added/replaced my info into the existing article. Can you give me specifics on what I'm doing wrong?

Re: Families of a single Sim
I was actually taking reference from other Sims Wiki that uses different language which led me into creating those family articles. Although I did not know about the discussion that you mention, I do have a reason that the article is still necessary because some of the info in the family's article is not covered in the sim's article. However if it's been a long decision for this wiki, then I apologize for not knowing it and continue on making those articles. <font face="Verdana" color="deepskyblue">Walker guy94 <font face="Lucida Sans" color="blue">Talk - <font face="Lucida Sans" color="red">Blog 09:08, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

Fanon Sim character information.
Hi Nikel23. I want to make a fanon page for my fanon sim, but I don't know how to put in the sim's information. (Hair colour, eye colour, traits, etc.). How do you add this in? And also, how do you add you sim in the Fanon sim category?

Unused/Hidden Sims
Hi Nikel,

I was wondering if I could add a category for 'Hidden Sims' because I've noticed that there's many unused sims out there. I didn't want to make a change without your approval.

ParanormalJ (talk) 05:53, October 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * There's already a similar category for 'unplayable sims'. --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 05:55, October 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure what constitutes a "hidden" Sim... While unplayable Sims category has covered up most hidden Sims, some unplayable Sims might not necessarily be hidden. After all, what makes unplayable Sims different from hidden Sims? ideal plantsim for example, perhaps?


 * We're not making a conclusion at the moment, but in case we set up a category for hidden Sims, don't manually add the categories to each Sim. Instead, use GetPlayCat and update the  parameter of the Sim's infobox.  Nikel   Talk  –  Vote!  06:40, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Drowning
I'm not going to get into an edit war with anyone. However, did you check what I wrote in the article? I didn't say anything about cars; I said carrying a Harvester would cause a Sim to drown. Did you even bother to check?

Every single time I went into a pool with a Harvester, the Sim drowned. So, if you want to deprive others of that information, that's fine with me.

The Sims 4 Logo
Sorry to bother you but on The Sims Series page, someone needs to update the current logo on the top right hand side of the page to The Sims 4 Logo. As well as changing the fourth generation logo to the new official one with the PlumbBob. I would do it myself but I think that job is for a administrator :) Joey.eyeball (talk) 04:37, October 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's the right time to change that since EA has never made any confirmations regarding ItF being their last official EP to date. Besides, TS4 is still a year away and that means the current series of The Sims is still TS3. --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 05:02, October 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, I wouldn't be the one responsible for that. If you're unsure about changing it yourself, Joey, try starting a discussion in its talk page. If you're thinking about changing the logo to this, I don't think it'll work right, since the logo that represents the series shouldn't have its era on it (the "4" shouldn't be on the logo), so using 4th generation logo on that page seems more appropriate.


 * Also, Walker, IMO those who think EA hasn't made an official statement that says ITF would be the last EP are still in denial, no offense. :p I wouldn't give much hope to it, but it does feel good if EA comes up with a surprise some time in the future.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  11:15, October 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * None taken, I'm just giving out my argument that it's still too early to discuss matters related to TS4 as you may know, we aren't even close enough to it (unless we have some sort of official announcement from EA themselves). --<font face="Verdana" color="RoyalBlue">Frostwalker <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="DarkOrange">Talk to me! 11:31, October 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Sure, you can say what you think about it. And personally, I don't know what to say. I would like to keep it that way until TS4 is officially released, but I'm also not opposed to changing it, since we know we're going to have TS4 anyway. Let's say I'm feeling neutral about it.
