Yes, I found the lot with SimPe and imported it into the game. I done it in brand new custom neighborhood since I didn't want it to interfere with my Sim and lot files. When you place the lot in neighborhood, it will look like empty. But when you enter it, you will see TWO roads, and the CAS house. Inside, there will be only 3 objects. First, there is a window in the room where you design your Sim (window is hidden in-game, but Numenor [http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=161887 uploaded it] on MTS. |

Second object is a mirror, half of living chair and bunch of wall images/paintings (all of these are actually one object that you can't delete). Third object is everything from the room Sims wait for setting relations (again, it can't be deleted). Outside, there are few trees. Note that lot may cause corruption so place it in empty neighborhood where you don't play or build.

Style note
In general, our "house style" is to italicize the names of games. So, when you see something like ''The Sims 3'', and think it needs to be linked, change it to ''[[The Sims 3]]'' rather than [[The Sims 3]]. Dharden (talk) 14:56, December 26, 2012 (UTC)
RE: Restoring Neighborhoods
It seems that you've done it right, except for the storytelling picture. First, go to your saved game folder in My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Neighborhoods\N001 (Pleasantview for example). You'll notice it's missing the Storytelling folder. Make one and leave it there. Now, go back to your installed game directory in UserData folder (the folder where you got the original neighborhoods). There's a Storytelling folder there.
Inside the Storytelling folder, find the screenshots you want. Remember, there's snapshot, and there's thumbnail. I'm sure you know which photo album belongs to which family. Notice that the snapshot (or thumbnail) has a file name like snapshot_xxxxxxxx_yyyyyyyy
The x's are the family instance. So for example you want the Broke snapshots, the x's are 2dae7a30. Now find the XML file in that folder as well named webentry_2dae7a30
.
Copy the snapshots, the thumbnails, and the XML file to the Storytelling folder in your saved game again. Do that to all the families in the same neighborhood, and there you have the photo albums again. :) Nikel Talk – Vote! 07:18, August 7, 2013 (UTC)
- The Baxter family snapshot is also in the Storytelling folder inside your The Sims 2 folder in My Documents. It's always there.
- Can I suggest you something? Next time if you want to restart a neighborhood, try using Tarlia's Clean Neighborhood. It's better without excessive townies. Also she's fixed some broken Sim DNAs. Strangetown has the most occurrences. Nikel Talk – Vote! 17:00, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

RE: The Sims 3 Network Error
I quit patching through the launcher and downloaded the patch manually instead. It was rather buggy and every once in a while it said my game was up to date even though there were new store patches. Which version do you exactly have right now? 1.55 or 1.57? Just a note that I don't log in while playing anymore. And I haven't patched my game to 1.57, so I can't test it for you. Nikel Talk – Vote! 15:43, September 10, 2013 (UTC)
- Well, so I guess the launcher is a bit glitchy. Go here The Sims 3/Patch 57 and download it from there. There's a direct link on the article for you to download. It's rather large though, so it takes a while for you to download.
- Are you playing while getting connected? Or are you trying to download Riverview? I'm playing without getting connected, and I can play in Lucky Palms just fine. Nikel Talk – Vote! 08:44, September 11, 2013 (UTC)
- I'm positively sure the link is correct. It's odd if playing Riverview requires you to update the game. But you haven't answered my question. Are you logged in to EA while playing the game or not? Nikel Talk – Vote! 06:52, September 14, 2013 (UTC)
- The patch file could not be read? Has it finished downloading, did it stop while you were downloading it, or it simply cannot be downloaded? What file type is the patch? .Sims3Pack?

- If it's not under Installed Contents, then I assume it hasn't been installed yet. You just need to install the Riverview. Have you downloaded it or not? Check your launcher under "Downloads" and "Lots" tab. If Riverview file isn't there, then try downloading it again. Or check the folder where your files are usually stored when you download stuff. Just remember that even if the file is under "Downloads", it doesn't mean it has been installed. "Downloads" means the content has been in your computer, but hasn't been installed yet.

RE: Vandalism
Thanks for the report! It's good that you've reverted the vandalism as well. :) Nikel Talk – Vote! 02:21, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
- I say we can keep an eye on the user. His only 2 edits seem to be only making false info.
- For future reference, you seem to be capable of reverting edits, so a report is not really necessary. But when things get worse, like continuous vandalism, attack on other users, or edit warring, don't hesitate to alert an admin. I do appreciate your help, so keep up the good work! Nikel Talk – Vote! 03:21, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
RE: Vandalism
Hi Joey. I did revert that edit, but I chose not to issue a warning. One of the main tenets of wiki editing is to assume that a user is trying to help the wiki even if the result of their edit is not positive. Looking at the edit and simply noticing that it was a large edit doesn't mean it was done on purpose; accidents do happen, especially with people who have never edited a wiki before. Aside from that, some people might 'test' edit, since they might be unconvinced or unaware that their changes really do take effect immediately.
So, as I said, I did not issue a warning, since the edit in my opinion was not vandalism and it was an isolated incident. Often the best solution in cases like this is to just undo the damage and leave it at that. I hope you can appreciate my reasoning and justification in taking this action.
Thanks for the input. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 06:09, November 11, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Userbox Template
This is the simplest way to set up:
|
{{userboxes}} {{userbox bo}} {{Userbox cs}} {{Userbox ls}} {{userboxesend}}
Basically, you add everything you want between the {{userboxes}} and {{userboxesend}}, and there you go. Oh and you can use the extra informations (align, colors, etc) only when you want to. --Frostwalker Talk - Read 08:13, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
- Actually, there's already one which isn't on the list. Here:
Code | Result |
---|---|
{{userbox tsd}} |

Rollback Nomination
Hi, I've nominated you for rollback rights. Please head over the request for rollback page to accept or decline the request. :) Nikel Talk – Vote! 11:18, November 29, 2013 (UTC)
- Your nomination for rollback has been approved. As a rollback, you have access to the Rollback tool, which allows you to undo multiple edits in a single click. You are also allowed to use the {{Warning}} template on offending users; note that you may only use level 1 or level 2 warnings. For more information on how to issue warnings, check the warning documentation. If you have any other questions or concerns about this, or about anything else, please do not hesitate to ask me or another administrator.

RE: Sandboxes
Hey Joey (or Joseph, whichever you prefer!). Sandboxes are relatively simple to make. You just have to create a new page, and call it "User:Joey.eyeball/Sandbox", because then it will be linked to your main user page.
There's a button on the right of the navigation menu ("on the wiki", "content" etc.) that is called "contribute" and there you can create the page. Just remember to add the "User:" bit so it connects to your user page.
I hope my explanation made sense. Don't hesitate to ask again if you found what I said confusing because I'd be happy to help! Good luck in creating your sandbox, oh an congrats on 1000 edits! :] ~ Waikikamukow (Anyone wanna chat?) 05:30, December 1, 2013 (UTC)
Re: The Sims 2 CAS Lot
Yes, I found the lot with SimPe and imported it into the game. I done it in brand new custom neighborhood since I didn't want it to interfere with my Sim and lot files. When you place the lot in neighborhood, it will look like empty. But when you enter it, you will see TWO roads, and the CAS house. Inside, there will be only 3 objects. First, there is a window in the room where you design your Sim (window is hidden in-game, but Numenor uploaded it on MTS. Second object is a mirror, half of living chair and bunch of wall images/paintings (all of these are actually one object that you can't delete). Third object is everything from the room Sims wait for setting relations (again, it can't be deleted). Outside, there are few trees. Note that lot may cause corruption so place it in empty neighborhood where you don't play or build. This is a tutorial for custom CAS screen but it also shows how to import the lot in game.
