My slightly edited version of Autumn Winds Retirement Home, part one. 

Always has a live-in adult caretaker (who at the moment was Kent Capp).

Going through my old screenshots and actually editing this time and condensing down . I have them organized by households, so heads up, I’m going to repost edited versions (which I know is pretty basic editing lol).

Last time I played Sims 2 I had just started taking medication for ADHD, because apparently that’s what’s been wrong with me mostly lol. I wonder how getting back into it will now look. Maybe I’ll feel less lazy about editing and cropping pics! I actually have started playing again already lol. My new spreadsheet for my first ultra mega whatever-hood looks less chaotic. And I feel less rushed to pair up the same couples I always do lol. It’s like I play a rip in the timeline type endless loop sci fi romantic drama with my premades. I should move beyond that a bit, ha.

I apparently liked this post awhile ago and did it, but forgot to use lol. Now this explains why I have the globalprops file on my desktop (I really couldn't remember why it was there after not turning on my desktop for like 6 months.)

Permanent Quarter-Tile Placement On!

Just wanted to share a tip I know about how to make the Quarter Tile Placement Cheat on all the time so you just have to press Ctrl + F when you want to use it without having to type in a cheat each time.

Many of you may know that adding “setquartertileplacement on” to your userStartup.cheat doesn’t work, so I’m going to tell you where you can put it that does work, in case you didn’t already know!

So, head to Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\Config and open up the file called “globalProps.xml” with a text editor, I recommend Notepad++. You should probably make a backup of this file first before making any changes, just in case.

In this file, scroll to the bottom and you should see a line that says:

<AnyBoolean key=“quarterTilePlacementEnabled” type=“0xcba908e1”>false</AnyBoolean>

Simply change the false to true and save the file and that’s it! The Quarter Tile Placement cheat will always be on without you having to type it in ever again! Simply toggle it on and off with Ctrl + F!

Hope that helps at least someone! I was telling my friend @morepopcorn​ about this trick and I couldn’t find the website where I initially read about how to do this anymore so she suggested I should make this post as it might not be common knowledge.
