“Anime may depict fictional worlds, but I nonetheless believe that at its core it must have a certain realism. Even if the world depicted is a lie, the trick is to make it seem as real as possible. Stated another way, the animator must fabricate a lie that seems so real viewers will think the world depicted might possibly exist.”

- Hayao Miyazaki. - Starting Point.

#I believe this applies not only to anime but to any form of storytelling - it needs to retain a certain realism #hayao miyazaki #starting point #book #quote #animation #storytelling #fiction #creative writing

SparklingSimSave

After building only base game for over a year, I treated myself and got some EP's and GP's.

For Christmas of 2023 I was gifted several EP's and GP's. After spending the last 4 months of building and game play I've been looking at what kind of Save File I wanted to build. I've watched tons of builders, lets plays and save file reviews. After a lot of consideration I decided to make my save file a represenatation of the worlds provided and existing sims lore.. however - I ran into a issue...

What I didnt like was the EA recommendation of having a sim cap of 200. While I understand that most people are using the best that they can I know that not a lot of ram can fathom the capacity of more than 200 sims. I was just completing Brindleton Bay and realized that I had hit this cap and had not finished oasis springs and so forth. You will see this represenation on my gallery of the builds uploaded.

I decided that although my computer (which isint even that high) can handle it but I wanted to be able to share this joy and fun with others. So I went back to the drawing board. My conclusion was this:

I wanted to make a world that was based off of having your sims placed into one main world with the opportunity to to explore the other areas as a vacation. Even with this idea in mind it has still made keeping the sims count to a minimum which seems to hit capacity pretty quickly. So what is another way I can see this idea play out without having to modify it too much?

I decided to cap each world to one particular residential area opposed to building the entire world.

What this means is that the majority of these worlds will consist of community and vacation lots. Residential areas will only be within a street to condense the story and condense the lag. With that being said as much as I wanted to include the sims lore I felt it would be more valuable to start from scratch. So in a turn of events I have decided to make a realalistic save file with a twist. Each world will showcase a different forensic file case. Your sims can travel on vacation to each of the worlds to immerse yourself in each of the cases and see if you can solve it - or maybe you might even know it and want to see how it has panned out.

While I currently do not own all of the packs I do try to limit the residential builds as much as possible. This is more to make it easier on myself to decorate individual styles that match the characters and story as well as being more wide-spread amoung other simmers who I really want to have joy in what I have created. The worlds listed below are what will be inclided and I will include a update weekly on Sunday's on the progress. I would like to really still incorporate some natural elements of the worlds for vacationing purposes as the reason I bought the EP's and GP's that I did is because I have always wanted to visit some of these places. There are also other EP's and GP's that I would like to purchase however with the long list that I have I must be realalistic as to what I can achieve. Should I be able to fill out the remainder of the EP's and GP's that I do have then I will list what packs in order I will be obtaining later on.

This is a huge undertaking so if you happen to be following along or are checking in this is a gentle reminder to be kind and compassionate. I work a FT job and have responsibilities in my downtime, the sims and creating is so much fun for me - its my therapy and I want to keep it that way! If youre interested in collabing im open for CAS creators.

The next update will be families and lore. If theres a world you would like to see expedited please leave me a comment :)

The save file will only have the following:

Base Game

Expansion Packs: Get to Work, Get Together, Cats & Dogs, Eco Lifestyles, Strangerville, Snowy Escapes, Cottage Living, Island Living, For Rent

Game Packs: Strangerville, Parenthood, Dream Home decorator, Dine out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat

Kit Packs: Book Nook, Desert Luxe, Blooming Rooms, Industrial Loft

Stuff Packs: Paranormal, Moschino, My First Pet, Laundry Day, Backyard, Romatic Garden (got for free on giveaways)

Tool Mod by Twisted Mexi to add world features for realism such as street lights, wire-poles, more trees and de-bug houses to make the world feel more full: this mod will only be used at the end of the complete world build unless this save somehow goes viral then I will feel obligated to do it sooner.

Reshade will be added at the end when the worlds are complete. This is the same one that Oshin sim's uses

World Rename tool by Srsly Sims

And I havent found one for the map that I like yet - open to suggestions and obviously this would not be required in your game it is more for asthetics for myself :)

The Plans: (to be renamed and reimaged)

WillowCreek: Louisiana

Crawded Quarter (to be renamed/ reimaged)

To be represented as Louisiana

Oasis Springs: Arizona

Peace of mind is foreign to love, since each new fulfillment one attains is never anything but a new starting point for the desire to go beyond it.

Alright, official jumping off point. Goal is +20lbs of healthy muscle gain by the 20th of September. I say healthy because my plan is not to just eat loads of burgers and pizza and pack in unhealthy calories. I intend to eat in excess with an 80/20 diet plan. 80% healthy quality nutrient rich food sources with 20% being cheats or treat foods. I will weigh in the middle and end of each month to keep tabs on progress. I expect the numbers to bounce up and down through the months as I’m sure I’m run into hurdles and obstacles. Got my mental game set and going to stay the course and try to stay positive even if I’m not seeing the results I’m want or expect. Never know unless you try and you can only fail if you don’t try!!

process of drawing an OC: - you design them - you get attached to them - their hair gets bigger without you realizing it

#it's always the hair #tbd maybe LOL #one of my OCs rn their hair keeps getting longer every time i draw it... #i'm tryna keep it to their shoulder blades but at some point it started reaching their hips and i was like. Wait.

Development Post 1

Development Posts

For this project, I intended to use GDevelop to create a fully functional game using time manipulation as one of its two major components. In particular, I wanted to include the ability to travel back in time and witness a different scenario within the same level by going back 50 years, which would provide a variety of temporal hurdles to gameplay. To enhance the player experience, I also focused on designing and structuring difficult puzzles and stages with power-ups.

Throughout the development process, I also learned that the necessity of thoughtful level design. I realised that finding the correct balance between challenge and engagement is critical for keeping players interested and motivated. Furthermore, incorporating puzzles within the game presented a big hurdle. I discovered that pre-planning specific puzzles before building the levels would have resulted in a more unified design process, with greater alignment between level structure and puzzle mechanics.

Inspired by the game principles, the artwork for "ChronoLeap" demonstrates a deliberate choice to combine future and nostalgic themes. The game's environment combines a futuristic sci-fi universe with scenes reminiscent of a peaceful past, complete with beautiful woods and chirping birds. This graphical direction not only complements the game's mechanics, but also heightens immersion by allowing players to explore and interact with the temporary environments. As this is the goal for the game im just starting off the prototyping. I have gone small and started with some basic movements in the first development. Alongside with that is some animated player model and some basic design of the level

This shows the current progress of the game with control WASD and a enemy for the game
