I just thought it was a normal little girls reaction to having to share her bed with a horrible brother  According to my niece who's nine all boys are horrible and should be got rid of ;D |

Got some odd pictures for you ;D From the front Kim looks like any other child   But from the side............she has no nose!!!!   They start so young now days don't they ;D  Somebody stole my controller   And my bed!!!   Kim really doesn't have a nose, it's totally flat  And yes that is the tweety pie top but it's not fantastic, i looks rather blurry, i'm not sure if i did it right  there's a lot of textures for one top and i'm not sure i put it on the correct one, i didn't use the alpha one of course but out of the other two i'm not sure. |

I'm glad your niece doesn't rule the world then.  That is weird about Kim, I assume you both have normal noses so not sure where that is coming from. Maybe she'll grow out of it. The top looks okay from the screenshots.  Sometimes I find some clothes look okay from far away but look blurry or not so good close up. But then some look really good close up. I like the ones that use the normal maps best because those appear to have depth or texture. The normal map is the greyish one which tells it where to apply the depth and so forth, but I am not real sure how to use them so I need to find a tutorial. The alpha channels I can handle already. |

It is okay from a distance, it's close up it looks bad, but then im just too fussy for my own good ;D Let's face it it's not that often you're looking at the sim that close, i was only doing it to take a pic of the top, which i didn't take cos it was blurry. And yes both parents and both boys have normal noses Although now Ben is a teenager he has cheekbones you could shave with they are so sharp ;D My sim has quite high cheekbones but not too noticable whereas the dad has more defined ones, seems like Ben got some of each and now has this odd looking face. See it just goes to show if the kids are cute then they get uglier the more they grow so have ugly ones to start with and perhaps they will get better Seeing as i didn't take a close up of the top here's the pic of the real thing, it's actually pale yellow although it doesn't look it here. I just love his expression ;D  |

Haha, that's a cute top!
I've had some cute kids turn into not so cute adults. As for Kim, it could be worse, someone at the simsresource boards posted a pic of a little toddler girl who had a mustache and her forhead protruded so far up and out that it clipped right through her fringe. ;D

Is your faceblendlimits on or off? I think the default is on, you can turn it off but it makes for some real funky faces. As for trying for an alien, well all I can say is good luck. Then again, watch you'll get it on your first try even though I have been trying for weeks and still haven't been abducted.  |

Do your sims interests include sci-fi? i was reading up on getting alien babies at the sims forum and somebody said that making their sim read about it got them abducted almost straight away after a lot of failed attempts |

Motoki you're gonna kill me but my husband got abducted ;D I nearly missed it as i was looking at the telly but i turned back just in time to see him doing this  The kids all came running upstairs to see what was going on ;D  Ben appeared to be stoked his dad got abducted but the others weren't so pleased about it.    If it's any help he was almost level nine in logic and had maxed out his sci-fi interest, also he'd been stargazing for a good few hours. It was my third attempt but it was also the longest he'd stayed on it. I'm going to have an alien baby  or babies |

He sure is ;D Both sexes can get abducted but the males always come back pregnant I'm going to go play and see what i get, it's going to be about six game days though, not sure if i'll get those in before bed  maybe i'll just have to stay up a little longer ;D |

Slight error with that last post, i misread it, they go for three hours not three days  i did think that seemed a long time. Anyway he got returned  Just look at his maternity wear, i thought that was so funny  My sims talking to and rubbing his belly   It's a girl I named her Chiana after one of the characters in Farscape  |

Oh my god you suck I hate you! j/k, well sorta. I'm SOOOO jealous though lol! Actually, mine aren't maxed out in sci-fi but I do have a sci-fi magazine (of which reading increases their interest) that I bought AGES ago and has just been sitting around. Hmm... |

Well Chiana had her first birthday, isn't she......ugly ;D  She has her dad's eyebrows but that's about as far as the family resemblance goes. Shortly after that i had to turn it off as we had a terrific thunderstorm and i thought we might have a power cut. I'm interested to see what she'll look like as a child now And Ben has had his first kiss with Josie, my baby's all grown up  I've built them a little starter bungalow next door to my house for when they become adults. I can have one more child before i need to move him out, i'm still going for the full ten kids, i must be nuts ;D |
