My Sims 4 game ~ Swoola

I don't really have that many ts4 screenshots but here is the sim I'm playing at the moment.  Like I said in another post...I'm a really slow player.  It takes me forever to get things done in-game.

She hardly has any money (I don't cheat very often) so she's focused on job and getting promoted right now.  

Anyway, here she is.  Her name is Swoola (idek)

She is lovely RGirl! Can't wait to see more of your game play and how Swoola is getting along. I find myself having to hit the pause button a lot more in
TS4 than I did with TS3.

she is stunning, love the freckles and such an unusual name too Swoola, I like it. I like unusual names for my simmies.

Looking forward to more pics too. I tend to zoom through my game play LOL I even find myself hitting the fast forward button if things are taking too long teehee

I can't play ts3 for more than about 3 seconds without pausing it...I'm such a micro-manager but the funny thing is I'm able to play ts4 without pausing it so much.  

The thing that I'm finding with ts4; the main reason I'm taking so long with the game; is I can't seem to get her a promotion at work.  She goes to work everyday in a good mood and her job/career bar is showing at the top of her field (don't know how to explain it very well) but she never gets promoted.  I think it's cuz she has to finish the tasks (?)  and I'm also finding it's taking forever to make friends.  


It all takes a bit of getting used to I guess.

Thanks for the compliments on her.

I change her hair almost ever day tee-hee and now it's pure white (I downloaded a hair colour by missmissfortunes (?)  I'll link it later.)  And yes, I love freckles on all sims...I think they're so cute.

I wanted to tell you about the name. I'm pretty sure 'swoola' is one of the things that sims say in ts3 when you are just about to exit cas.

They wave and say 'swoola' I think that's what they say; well among other things.

That's where I got it from lol!

ahaha awesome

It does help in completing the daily tasks, I have noticed that relationships do take a bit longer and I've also noticed if you don't talk to them (friends) on just about a daily basis, that friendship level dives fast. I've had one girl become good friends with same person every time I go in game! And getting promoted is hard along with advancing in school. Also, I've noticed too that if your sim goes to work or school either Focused, Energized or Inspired, depending on which one they need to be which is in the menu for their work/school that shows the meter, daily tasks) it does help move them up that meter bar more.

Gee, I'm not really sure... do I just reply to this topic or start a new topic  ?

Here's a couple more screenshots of Swoola and her new boyfriend Alijah Purcell  (he's a townie that I remade)  

Together as a couple I nicknamed them Swalijah!  I thought this was clever lolol!



Also look at InaMac's top!  Loooove it!

And Alijah




Cheers folks!

Yup just hit reply.

I love Ina's tops too!

And I love how you put their names together.

Looks like it's all coming together for your simmie

Swalijah haha love it, thankyou for using my top oooh I have to say Alijah is smexy

@InaMac, I'm glad to use your top...I think you have some pants too (am I right?)  I told you I'm terrible at remembering cc but I'll look at the downloads section later.  I'm really busy today and tomorrow actually and I'm getting a new car on Saturday Yay!  I'll post about that in the real life section but anywhoooo...

Here's my funny 'tickling' screenshot of the day.  I saw Mamajanaynay's  HERE!     the other day and just had to post this one too!

Two visitors came to visit Alijah (the one in the green is/was Alijah's sweetheart before Swoola took him away from her)

It's like she's saying 'koochie-koochie-koo' lmao



Ok, Ciao for now!

That's just too funny!

oh my lordy these sims are so funny dont ya think

oooh a new car, how exciting, I love the smell of a new car.

The finger sticking through her tummy is too funny.


And the car's not brand new...I wish it was.

The car that I'm driving now I bought way back in 1999 and it was brand new back then....

Can you imagine driving/owning a car for 15 years! But she's done now and she doesn't owe me anything... She was a beauty that's for sure.

Sorry, I got all reminiscing about my car.

Don't worry about reminiscing about a car, I've done it. There are just certain ones that you just fall in love with and they do become a part of you. Silly as that may sound.

I'm finding that ts4, so far, seems to be harder or more challenging in that, you really have to work at their individual relationships to keep them friendly and it's a lot harder with respect to their careers.

I found ts3 too easy when it came to work.  I do like a bit of a challenge.

Finally Swoola got a promotion!  I figured out the 'daily tasks' thing and I tried to get her to go to work with an 'inspired' mood but couldn't quite achieve that but anyway:

LOL! I know your pain in getting them promoted. At the rate this game is going they'll have to work until grim comes to reach the top spot.

woot woot, congrats Swoola

I had Danny working as a Tech Guru, I found the tasks easy to do (mostly playing video games) and he got promoted fairly quickly. I havent tried any of the others yet.

I can't say how fast the painter career will go as my gal just started it, but one of the things she can do while at work is to contemplate Art or complete art, something like that, and it will boost her up to the Inspired mood which is also the mood that will get her up that promotion meter bar quicker. She went to work one day and she is already at the half way mark on the bar.

The astronaut career is taking my guy forever to climb up, he's only at level 2 and has been at the half way mark for about forever. I have him complete his daily task, which is working out (?) odd for an astronaut, and I try everything I can think of to get him in the Focused mood before sending him off to work.

I tried searching online the other day; but I really would like to find a detailed list (I'm such a nerd omg) of how to get your sim to achieve each of the moods.

For example... If your sim paints they will get the inspired moodlet. And that comes in handy with the writing career.

And they can play video games to get the happy moodlet. But what do they do to get 'focused'? That's the painting career I think.

I found the Prima games guide but of course they want you to buy it so they only give you a bit of info.

I little more research is in order I think.

I like this game, I have to admit. I find it much more challenging. I mean, my poor Swoola is suffering cuz I'm not cheating by raising their mood bars (or whatever you call them) and I'm not using the money cheat, so she's too poor to afford nice stuff, but I'm having fun.

I got her and Alijah together so now they can have company while they suffer.

Here she is the poor thing, eating breakfast. She has an uncomfortable bed, so she had a sore back. She had to pee real bad, she was almost starving and she was filthy dirty.

While she ate her fruit loops her lips were actually trembling. llol! I'm sorry but I laughed a little at this animation.

*eeps*

I can't get the 'host' an image button to work.

I'll post it later then.

A very sad Swoola eating her breakfast cereal.




I laughed a little at this.  She was on the verge of tears and her bottom lip was quivering.  ..she was that sad.   Poor little bb.

awww she looks so miserable

I love the emotions they show

Awwww. How come she is so sad???? I've actually had 3 of my sims now get the sad emotion because, ah...silly me didn't throw a birthday party in time before they aged up. They all went and hid under the covers and cried. I thought that was kind of funny how they do that. I laughed even harder when I heard their crying sounds. They sound so pityful. LOL

MJ,

She was miserable because when she woke up she had to pee really bad, she was dirty (you can see some of the green smelly stuff coming off her) and she was really really hungry.  

I didn't know which need to deal with first lol!

But I didn't want her to die of starvation. So I had her eat first.

As she ate her cereal her bottom lip was quivering as if she was holding back tears.

It all worked in the end...as soon as she had a shower her emotion was back to 'happy'

I'm really enjoying the emotions  .

Later that day she was angry and she actually slammed the fridge door when she got her dinner out.

Tooooo funny!
