Hello There

brilliantcat's sims

I'm so glad you found your way to my little corner. I was immensely flattered to have been invited to join the fabulously talented Keely, BP, and Misty here as a guest creator. I've been playing TS2 since it was released and ran my own site with house downloads just after the game came out (before there was CC *gasp*)

I promptly got addicted to World of Warcraft when it was released a few short months later and my pixel people were largely ignored. Happily, I rediscovered the joy of simming last year and jumped right back into the community.

Currently I only make and share sims and very rarely houses (simply because there are many house builders who are far more talented) I'm teaching myself to recolor / retexture hair and create other things as well. I enjoy writing stories, sims as well as non-sims, so you'll notice my simmies tend to have pretty well-developed biographies. They all have a

story to me.

If you have any questions, read the FAQ below or feel free to contact me. Thanks again to Keely and BP for asking me to join them, and I hope you all enjoy my simmies!

FAQ

(pretty much copy-pasted from BP's and misty's pages)

How do I download / install your content?

The content is in .rar files and requires the use of the winrar program to extract the files. Objects and bodyshop content (clothing, makeup, genetics etc) are to be extracted as .package files to your downloads folder (C:/My Documents/EA Games/The Sims2/Downloads/ - replace the C:/ with the appropriate drive name). Sims and build mode content such as walls and floors are in .sims2pack format and need to be double-clicked to open them, where you can then follow the content organizer prompts for installation. I strongly recommend the use of the clean pack installer that is available from mod the sims 2.

What programs do you use to make stuff?

SimPe to extract in game born Sims and the bodyshop program that is packaged with the game.

What are your Sims packaged with?

My Sims will generally come to you with Maxis hair and clothing. If you see a Sim you like, but don't recognize the Maxis Clothing it's because you do not have the expansion pack. Not to worry the Sim you grab will default back to the base game hair and clothing for you pixelated person. So you don't have to worry about the Sim not working etc. In some cases, CC (custom content) hair or clothing will be included. If the original CC creator allows sharing, it will be included. If it cannot be shared, I will provide links to the items used in previews.
