Super Sekrit Project, Revealed!

This is what I've been working on quietly for the past few months, and alluding to vaguely every so often: SimFreezepop!



Read about it, here. You can read the story native to lj or at the Sims 2 Exchange.

Spiffy!

That's really cute. I love the secret underground lab! (I have doubts about hair as material for a viable clone, but that's why she's a science genius girl.)

Shhh! :)

Oh no! Nature/nurture angst!

Is that all done in the Sims2 engine?

Would it be overly nitpicky to point out that the QY70 is silver, not blue? ;)

C'est nifty!

boolean properties are my friend

Yep - like all my Sims 2 stories, no photoshop was involved!

Many cheat codes were used to set up particular shots, as well as a number of hacked objects, but that's par for the course :) I've already had to email someone who wanted to know how I got the sims into the cloning tank! She wrote back and said I must be a boolprop Master!

(Most of the Sims 2 cheats start with boolprop and end with true/false. The uber-cheat is boolprop TestingCheatsEnabled true, which puts the game into debug mode, and lets you do many things that you can't normally - but it's dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. Some of the options are positively hazardous and can result in your game exploding in a Big Firey Ball That's Visible From Space).

Yeah, I was really wondering if there was some sort of debug mode or something like that that you used to arrange things. I can't imagine trying to do something that complex by just happening to encourage your sims to do things!
