I need a remedy for a problem. Thankfully not a Tong problem, but I suspect that the prescription is the same.

Btw, it's nearly impossible to get the Text-to-voice program to pronounce words in other languages correctly. It was inventive to get her to say "Florbela Espanca" in Portuguese and "Do Itashimashite" (どういたしまして) in Japanese (the Japanese had the worst result). But I think knowing that I had to force the pronunciation makes it a bit funny how off it still is.

VTMB - Painting Since there was a bit of a request lately I decided to share this little painting I made for TS3. The inspiration came from Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines where this particular painting can be seen at the Red Dragon restaurant in Chinatown. I'm sure you can see it in other buildings as well but that's where I found it originally. The frame is a EA/ Maxis mesh and is still recolorable. (Base game compatible since 04/18/24) I hope you enjoy it. 🥰 Download: SFS

Credits: - EA/ Maxis for the frame - Albert Charles Auguste Racinet, the original artist of the painting that was used in VTMB - @nantucketupsnott for letting me know about this game and for using my creation in their recent build. 😊

How is VTMB racist

imo a ton of the stuff in the chinatown section is in very poor taste. The game is special to me but that part leaves a bad taste in my mouth and makes it hard to recommend it to anyone

#i know its an old game and all i just think the amount of stereotyping really dates it #its just a shame that a game with so many wonderful strong points has stuff like that in it

[erebiatyndarus]

this may be too broad of an ask so sorry but i'm just getting into the sims 2 and want to recreate vtmb locations as well + make the game look more grungy and "alpha" i guess sims 4 players would call it. can you point me in the right direction in terms of your favorite mods or creators? thank you. also i am polish-american and your presence is so so welcome and your builds are amazing

thank you anon!

there's so many creators, i don't know where to begin

go to place for grunge, rusty-dusty cc - garden of shadows

Aviolina made some Silent Hill stuff worth checking out kativip has some good cc packs that i use a lot (S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Metro converted objects) Pixelhate has some nice Fallout convertions and more Adele got beautiful things (liam buid set my beloved)

check out this board by @zombies-who-speak-simlish

as you can see theres a pattern: 🔥converted objects🔥, try looking for cc by searching the sims 2 *name of a different game*

also, speaking of vtmb, my dear anon, we have been blessed by Yolartut who gave us these (scroll down a bit), just got them, beautiful, i'm mad at myself for only just now downloading them heh, now i want to recreate the whole chinatown part of vtmb

damn, wish there were more convertions from this game... (and half life, source engine stuff + the sims 2 is like a match made in heaven)

oh, and a lot of my cc tbh... comes from builds of other simmers xD i like to download any build that tickles my interest and analise how others design and decorate. later i end up with a bunch of cc in my build/buy catalog of unknown origin (don't really recommand doing this tho, this way i got some really nice stuff, but the mess and the amount of stuff i would later end up deleting, oh god)

hope i helped a bit

Okay. Finished Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. Here's my scattered, informally-presented thoughts on it (some spoilers under the cut, but tried to keep it vague). I recommend looking through a professional review online if you want some more in-depth opinions tho

TLDR; Good game, but severely tainted by its janky combat and the writing being pretty "of its time", I think.

I loooove love love love the gameplay, for the most part! I think the stat system is good and forces you to really consider what you want to put your stats into, instead of just letting you farm them or whatever. You can't be an everyman (unless using console commands ofc, which i did). You have to stick to a build, though I think that ranged combat far outweighs ranged. But then again, roleplaying game. Getting a good combat build or stealth build is a side part of the whole experience.

However, I do wanna talk about the combat. The combat. Oh god, the combat. It's really, really bad. For most of the game you can avoid it, but there are multiple boss fights at the very end of the game that force you into combat. If you put all of your experience into stealth and subterfuge options, RIP. Many enemies are damage sponges, and you are most certainly Not a damage sponge in equal measure. Your movements in melee combat are usually slow and difficult to maneuver, meaning that if you get jumped by three or more enemies when you play melee, you're kiiiinda fucked. You stagger on every melee hit and cant avoid damage for shit half the time. Little better with ranged ofc, but the enemies also have guns most of the time, and some enemies will gun you down before you have any time to react. which means that if you run into a group of enemies, again, you're fucked. it's miraculous that they didnt catch just how bad it is to face off against large groups of enemies (and the bosses. they are Really Bad. All of them) in playtesting. So strange.

The roleplay is AMAZING, though. it has good diversity in its dialogue and character backstory, so you're relatively good on that front if you're here to be some guy thats having the roughest time of their life. plenty of avenues you can go for in the gameplay to fit the image you have in mind for your character, and I think that's its greatest strength.

the story is also pretty good! writing is great, love the characters and the setting. the writing is pretty tight, interesting the whole way through, and the reveal about the driving force of the narrative at the end of the game is real fuckin good. greatly enjoyed it.

ofc, there is some pretty bad shit as well; the chinatown area and any chinese character is depicted as evil, traitorous, stupid, or greedy. there's like, probably one or two good chinese characters in the game (if i remember correctly, my playthrough took a while). there's other instances of racism, however; The Sheriff character is a silent, animalistic bodyguard that is killed in several routes. hes stated to be from africa, and serving La Croix, a powerful white person... yknow. There's like four total dark-skinned people in this game, and a whole one of them is good, but only technically in one route, and he's still portrayed as an aggressive guard.

but all in all, i really think it is like, kinda worth the money? its pretty good despite these faults, especially since you have access to console commands and can just turn on god mode if shit gets unbearable (which it will, trust me). theres several unofficial patches that also add to the experience, and are probably even vital to playing the game. I used the VTMB Unofficial Patch, but there's other patches out there i believe, if you want to look at those.

so yeah i recommend it if youre fine with playing an old pc game thats too ambitious for its time.

finally got shading on vtmb and i made it to chinatown

#vtmb #next im gonna show u my fav clubs in the game

[harspud]

also in a similar vein. i like vtmb it's a fun game. a diamond in the rough. but it's hard to recommend it to people because frankly the chinatown level is unforgivable?

like every time i replay the game and i get to that level i'm always like oh my gooood i forgot how bad it actually was. it's hard to prepare someone for just how bad it is. i don't think the fans acknowledge just how bad it is. like we just go 'yeah it was iffy but that was the 2000s for you' but like. go back and play it. bro that shit was obscene.
