This wouldn’t be half as scary if it was a corrupted couch. WHY did it have to be a doll?
Not only that, but a corrupted doll that your child sims could play and talk to. That's some real horror movie shenanigans.
@@thequeenundisputed I know right? It’s a horror movie plot for sure
You say that now, but just you wait till your couch gets haunted! Spooky stuff
it gives me flash backs of sleeping in my grandmas room as a kid. she always had those creepy dolls.
@@strawbawrri249 My grandma had a room in her house for all her creepy dolls. I slept in that room the night she was taken into hospital and unfortunately passed away. Swear the dolls blinked.
the creator when she realizes the cursed doll everyone’s talking about is hers: 👁👄👁
yesss xD
i would like it but the likes are at 666
(its not at 666 anymore so i will like it now)
The creator of the girl doll dressed accidentally upload the wrong one at first but she realized it was the one that the file was corrupted and uploaded the non corrupted version of the doll to the website
“Omfg, is this play about us?”
I’d love to see an episode on the broken Centaur CC that also wormed its way into big CC files back in the day. The mod would get applied to babies and turn them into a long flesh colored beam. It was a nightmare.
YESS it also would apply to sims when they’d shower 😩 drove me insane when I was a kid
When I tell you I only started using mods 2 years ago because the centaur CC over ran my game so that I was too afraid to ever add anything else to my game. It was my first and nearly last foray into CC 😅
YES! If i remember correctly it was like womens adults boots that they turned into (or half into) i think it was in toddler cas aswell
I definitely had to deal with both the centaur outfit and the lace-up boots. Looking at that shit in CAS on a baby was just as creepy as watching it deform in Live Mode. I was so happy when I finally managed to delete them all.
@@aliyahbentley860 it was definitely those stupid boots.
The hate the creator got from this was disgusting honestly. They'd been creating for years at the time that thus happened and they were constantly pushing out new unique things for the games :(
She was also well into her 50's when this happened, which makes it even sadder.
What happened?
@@LadyDragonbane People accused her of making the doll malicious on purpose, or blamed it on her being negligent or a bad coder.
Yeah she made horses for the Sims 2 and stuff iirc.
@@CommanderWiggins That's horrible. I'm just gonna head canon that she did do it on purpose and cackled like an absolute maniac and had a wonderful time all along.
Omg this is my favorite Sims 3 story bc it makes no sense but 100% happened.
THIS DOLL HAD ME UNHINGED AS A CHILD
Idk what you mean that it makes no sense, but the thing why it was attaching, corrupting saves etc. was because when the doll was being made a rubbish file got attached (which had a very small chance back then when making mods for ts3) which made the mod destructive
@@LitrlyMeowtooth destructive?
@@gothboiclique.mp3 yeah, i mean't that thx
@@LitrlyMeowtooth they said that to ask you to explain how dipshit, not to criticize your usage of that word
Maxis' corrupted files always gotta be the creepiest things. In Spore, the corrupted file that would ruin the game if placed was a big pile of bones. It's never anything normal, is it?
Ikr, ts4 broken cc is so creepy, and ts3 bad cc too, imagine seeing your baby grow up and turn into a MONSTER
my spore was so odd dude... probably because my pc is literal junk. I'd never be able to reach space stage creator, because the game would always flash pink and some textures..and in creature stage I'd have just a mess of a game
This is probably the biggest horror that ever happened in a sims game. Everyone was justifiably terrified.
I still don't trust CC because of it. LOL
@@mornasev no one knew what was causing it at first, so it was really scary for a while. Then there was a pretty big controversy with some people believing it was done on purpose and some thinking it was just an accident. But it really didn’t matter who believed what because it effected almost everyone. Even people who didn’t get the virus ended up resentful because they couldn’t feel safe using the gallery. It got into people’s games who had never used cc. It’s probably the most dramatic and far reaching thing that ever happened in the sims community.
Ikr
Ur forgetting batuu
remember the baby grill. that haunts me
I remember this and it ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED me. It’s one thing it causes in game problems but why does she have to look like THAT too?? I absolutely have beef with her appearance.
SAAME like they have NO right having them be that terrifying AND a virus
apparently she was actually a ported version of a Sims 2 cc the creator made using the same technique (teddy bear replacement) and just used a toddler model for the doll. wild.
So glad I only downloaded terrible cas cc. I literally ended up with so much random cas cc that I couldn’t get rid of, but at least it didn’t ruin my game (except visually. Shout out to all the random gen sims who ended up as a centaur from broken cc) edit: Extra shout out to the boots that made all babies, toddlers, and children into mutant freaks. If you know, you know.
The BOOTS
@@madmuffin4484 THE BOOTS WAS THE CAS VERSION OF THIS SHIT
Jut not download as hackers well fuck your game up as that fun for them becos there not understand care or love
I have one which random gens a tail on sims, and with seasons, if a sim is naked there's a chance they have a tail, with no hope of fixing it (I can't remember what the file name is gdhgfdfdj)
bruh itd prob scare me more cause like a couch? a couch did this? a broken cc couch broke thousands of save files? scarier than a re-skinned doll for me
I want to make it clear this was not the fault of the creator of the doll CC, it was caused by a combination of the GUID the creator had innocently used and the way The Sims packaged CC. EA actually fixed it their end so CC was no longer packaged in quite the same way.
plus the exchange was horrible in downloading multiple files, theyd literally just throw shite on ur computer lmao
My favorite broken cc was the haunted hooker boots my babies and toddlers always ended up wearing.
Hooker boots on a baby and toddler? I'll call the FBI
Omg I had those two and I couldn't load a single toddler in CAS without them absolutely styling on me. It also appeared on my mermaids in their mermaid form too for some reason lol
lmao i remember that happening to me
YES!!! I have no idea what I downloaded that contained those boots but I could never freakin find them in my CC folder 😭 And to add insult to injury, they were literally IDENTICAL in every way to the base game boots! Ugh.
I remember that! I have no idea what could have caused that either. Just like when my sim had a baby (or adopted one), they would look like some sort of long naked stick thing. It was really annoying. 😂
I always felt it was more a fault in the Sims Exchange than it was the fault of the CC creator - the Exchange was really bad about mixing unrelated files into a download. It shouldn't ever have been an issue that you could unintentionally download CC files that you hadn't specifically approved.
The exchange was just a huge mess in general, at the time it was absolutely God awful to use at all and was so horribly slow and poorly organized
But that would put accountability back on EA and we can't have that 😒😒
@@andromeda7758 Yeah except they fixed it on their end🙄
Given the way the glitched content worked, I'm not surprised it took the creator a while to notice. It's a shame people were so harsh to them - mistakes happen.
And it wasn't even a hurtful corrupt file! It just made the game run badly. That's all. It could have been so so so much worse.
I had one bug that was a pair of boots 👢 that would default for all my sims to wear including babies and would glitch all over the screen. I used to have to go through all my CC file names/numbers and delete it, it was such a pain
I had that one too!!! It was basically a 50% chance a baby would come out with a boot glitched onto them
@@noski1240 haha, it was so annoying when They left the hospital and the boot would just glitch the whole world 😆
Ah yes the hooker boots of death, I was always afraid of my Sims getting in the shower because there was a 50% chance they’d be wearing these and I would be powerless to do anything about it
...i think I've got those boots, they came in on a sim I downloaded and sometimes I've just got a baby I have to fix when its born and showering sims sometimes change I it I've got some hair that does the same thing its aggravating but i put up with it
Sameeee
I'm glad that when I was a teenager I was both too nervous and also too lazy to even try using cc for the sims 3. I only hit my massive CC user phase after sims 4 came out and had me longing
ugh same. in my case, though, I just cant understand how any of it works. none of the explanations make any sense to me.
Same, I'm very glad to have anxiety because it has saved me from ruining my games many times.
Jesse being a digimon fan... it just makes sense, your honor. Actually, digimon had a lot of video games she might find fun to stream
The first couple of seasons had so much heart and drama, I loved them as a kid.
yaaas!!!! BRING ON THE DIGIMON STREAMS !!!!
I liked season 1/Digimon adventure, but not the rest. I didn't make it past the third season.
she’s a what!?!? nice!
I loved the digimon gba racing game.
People just hate to see a girlboss thriving 😔
For your Sims history series, I would love a dive into the drama around the original person behind mod the sims. I'm not sure what happened other than it got him removed from The Sims community and maybe involved sex crime allegations.
Whozawhatnow
HUH WHAT THE FUCK HOLD ON
...it did???? how long have i gone without playing this fucking game damn
I..somewhat remember this.. I'd be interested too
you have my interest now. please tell us more
it sounds like the mesh itself was corrupted while the creator was trying to save/export it with the third party program being used like nifskope, which does stuff like this a lot when you make skyrim content. your computer would freak out trying to properly load and render it and apply any normalmaps or textures to it and end up not being able to render it in-game at all while still struggling desperately to do so because sims 3 doesnt have failsafes for this kind of thing. I think i'm confused though. the main thing it did was lag the game and potentially break save files that tried to pack a corrupted mesh into the save? That's it? And it could be removed safely once the specific file was found? and that's what was freaking people out so horribly and making them have really unkind backlash to the creator? to me it seems like a massive overreaction. my own personal experience with modding might be biasing me though.
Idk if you played many games around that time, but the view on CC, viruses in general and shared content was much different at that time. Now most people who have a computer have antivirus software and have much higher knowledge of how the internet works and ways to safely browse or download. As someone who was affected by this doll, it was truely scary not knowing what was happening. In hindsight, it's not that big of a deal because we know what happened and how to fix it but at the time, we didn't know why it was happening. If you saved any saved game while the file was in your game, it was often corrupted due to it attaching to other random cc or noncc items, destroying legacy saves and hours/days of save data. When it was discovered that it was a virus-like item, there was also the fear that it was an actual computer virus (like I said, a lot of people didn't have antivirus or had a bare minimum firewall). This was just after the time of viruses like smile, netsky, bifrost and the mass cyber attacks in the US and North Korea. Today most people don't spend much time thinking about viruses but at that time, many people were very fearful of viruses. I laugh now thinking about how scared we all were because it really does sound a little silly but we were genuinely terrified
@@casi1000 i did and was, i still have a lot of my physical sims 1 cds somewhere around here. i think you helped me understand a whole lot better, so thank you. I was tinkering around with computers and even reformatting my hd regularly pretty early on - especially since even when you weren't on the internet a lot, you still had to worry about viruses from the underground 'circulate the tapes' community because not everyone was honest - so it seems the extra exposure i was lucky enough to get diminished how scary those things were to me and led to me not parsing what was scary about the doll. thank you for helping me have better empathy for others
One thing that kinda adds to that theory is that the doll looks like it was originally from the sims 2. I wouldn't be surprised if the makers tried to just convert the old mesh to work with the sims 3 but it didn't work. They found a way to convert it but used the wrong file when uploading.
i think something else that made it worse was how it could appear from ANYTHING. the exchange was notorious for downloading files that u didnt want, so it spread like wildfire because the exchange couldnt just deactivate the doll cc link and have it be gone forever
I love creepy dolls! I don't have any Victorian ones, but my mom's still got her old Chatty Cathy dolls from the 60s (the doll that the living doll from the Twilight Zone was based on- very unsettling), and I love them. I feel bad for how creepy people find them! They were created to make kids happy, and now everyone hates them, the poor things. Plus, I figure if I'm nice to them, they won't murder me when they come alive to take their revenge on the world.
I would never find furbys scary
@@adam_stanheight my mom has collected porcelain dolls an holiday barbies all my life. She just moved into an apartment and currently has them set up in a storage locker. I'd love to see someone's face if the broke in to see shelves of dolls staring into their soul.
Blame it on cliches
Look up the explanation of uncanny valley. It explains why people find 'human looking' things creepy
same. everyone always calls my collection creepy and says how much they dislike them. I get not everyone is gonna like them, but it just makes me feel bad.
RIP to Rebecah :( she made some amazing mods for each sims game over the years
I was hoping you'd make a vid on this because I looked for Sims creepypasta for spooky month and this topic came up. That was like 2 weeks ago. The deep dive is much appreciated
"There's nothing wrong with how she looks, we're not going for her appearance today"
*Literally a few seconds later*
"CREEPY BABY DOLL"
I fell out with porcelain dolls when my sister's shelf full of them fell on me when I was younger 😂😂 all I did was sit under it
Did it happen often?
@@angelicgalaxy4534 no just the once 😂 the shelf never went up again after that
the fact that TSR and other modding sites for many other games dont pre screen or scan a lot of files for viruses or bugs means something like this was eventually going to happen
Tsr does screen cc now haha (not sure about at the time) but tbf I don't think a screening would have caught this considering how silently it spread
Can you do the story of those super annoying boots that ruined so many sims 3 babies?
me *looking at my collection of eyeless dolls*: ya'll would never do that to me right
AHH POSSIBLY THE MOST ICONIC HACK/GLITCH IN GAMING HISTORY SO GLAD YOU COVER IT
Not gonna lie, Sims without CC would not be Sims for me. Maxis is just too cheap with their pack sizes ...
So, as someone once said, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents
I believe that was Bob Ross
I'm SO pleased with how well structured and organized this video is... also the editing is perfect
@@BengtBagels This comment just made my day fr, you cracked me up! Don't worry, I'm a nice clown... The worst I can do is embarass you with my sense of humor. I hope you had a nice night/morning of sleep with no nightmares hehe
Stuff like this was the reason I refused to ever use CC in The Sims 3. I was so terrified of losing everything I had done/created. Now in the Sims 4 i'm pretty much the opposite as my sims are pretty much drowning in CC lol.
Yes! I knew there were glitchy CC coming into exchange items but I was too young to pinpoint how to get rid of them/what items they came from and I never googled it but I did realize problems were coming from the exchange so I REFUSED to use the exchange in Sims 3 lol
Nah CC in Sims 3 is fine. I have 12gb worth of them lol
Ehhh, I like my Sims but I'm not going to freak out if I have to remake or delete them. Thats the game after all! I would just delete everything and start over if I couldn't figure it out.
i dont use cc in the sims 3 mostly because the game is already perfect imo
ive had some minor glitches with sims 4 cc (eg. one shirt that caused every texture to freak out once i put it on) but overall same lol
This story sounds like a creepypasta lol
Oh hey, this. I remember!
The girl doll was a Sims 2 custom content conversion by someone who had no idea the devastation she was about to release upon the simming world. She was asked to make the doll for Sims 3 and so she did.. and like you said, she uploaded the wrong version. The doll wasn't really a virus, it was just broken code. Really broken corrupted code. Because of people in the community, the file was identified and there was even a cleaner program to remove it from your game. It lead to a "don't trust the exchange" attitude in the community and forums where people uploaded clean builds, checked by admins. No one wanted this thing in their game.. and it's still out there because of how it works so if you play Sims 3, watch what you D/L. Thankfully we do know how to remove the doll so if you do end up with it, the solution is easy to find.
Also backup your game files before adding any CC. Always.
It disturbs me, but doesn't surprise me, that the game and the Exchange both had so few guardrails that a piece of custom content could not only corrupt the whole game, but also spread silently through exchange downloads.
I love how you say “film” like it’s two syllables.
Editing to add that I mean that as a genuine compliment 💜✨ I think it’s really cute ^^
My first experience with mods/cc was with the sims 4 so I had no idea this was a thing back in the day! Kind of crazy how a small piece of cc could complete make your game unplayable. I do feel very bad for the creator though, it seems like it was an honest mistake and they got all of this hate thrown at them
I'm gonna drop a controversial opinion, this stuff only happened bc the Sims player base (outside of modders ofc) are some of the most technologically inept group of gamers out there. It's 2021 and people still ask the most ridiculous questions on Sims 4 streams and treat simple texture recolors like dark magic. I can't imagine something like this happening on this scale with like, GTA mods or something. The moment someone's game would be bugging they'd go through every piece of CC and check it instead of spreading panic and telling people not to download any CC ever LMAO
I can't speak for people now but back then viruses were viewed very differently and people were already wary from the cyber attacks. That combined with the audience being much younger and the hours of gameplay you could potentially lose due to the corruption made for some easily spread hysteria. Try not to compare the maturity of them to mostly adults too hard😅
UA-cam's close captioning has been doin its damn thing recently... the fact that it got "citalopram" in Jesse's accent, truly simtastic babes
I love everyone in the comments bringing back the haunted hooker boots as a solid cc feature that managed the sneak in everywhere 😂
I never used the exchange because 1. I preferred building my own houses and 2. I had a... less than legal... copy of the game at the time, but I did use a lot of CC. Fortunately I don't think I ever downloaded this doll because I avoided TSR as much as possible 😂
I was just thinking about this the I ther day. I feel really bad for the creater/modder. The guilt they must feel after they realized what had happened to the point where they felt the need to disappear. Hope theyre doing fine whereever they are.
As of March this year, they're still modding. They make mostly tuning and object mods for sims 4 and sims 2, but seem to have moved away from Sims 3.
This makes a lot of sense as to why CC doesn't automatically download when you download other people's creations now
I remember hearing about this for the first time about a year ago. It's terrifying how the doll just creeped up out of nowhere and spread like wildfire. ;-;
I remember having it in my game without ever actually downloading it, it just kind of appeared one day and I was like ‘huh, it must’ve been part of some CC I downloaded’ - soooo creepy how it attached itself to other downloads!
Just imagine uploading CC and two months later you realize you uploaded a corrupted file and broke so many people's games. I would feel so bad, I'd want to disappear from the face of the Earth.
i just know she would have the craziest beef with azealia banks
LMFAO
It would be terrifying and funny if someone brought this doll back to the sims 4.
NO!
Maybe make it similar to that cursed child tombstone but with a doll instead
@@albinhaformiga1070 cursed child tombstone? how have i not heard of this
@@justsomeguy898 yeah is a mod by SacrificialGamer
Yeah - make a version of it that won't damage the game and just functions as a toy or decoration.
This is basically a sims 3 version of “wash your hands and wear a mask” 😂
I just got her and found out I had her from CC Magic when I tried rebuilding it said "Deleted Corrupt Package: Doll Dressed: Causes crash to desktop" and it said "rebuild complete" after that but it would say that everytime I rebuild and it would never actually get deleted, the game worked fine and everything too. When I was looking for a way to remove her I literally couldn't find the file anywhere until I saw of a forum that one guy got her from the tattoo section on the exchange and I recently just downloaded some tattoos so I deleted all of them and now shes gone.
The worst cc I had were these long boots that all my babies/toddlers/children would end up wearing and stretch them out. Super terrifying and I could never find the cc in my files.
I accidentally downloaded like 2 months ago, I had to delete my entire mods folder because I didn’t know how to remove it
Idk as far as CC goes, but the Sims team did release a statement about a pedophilic/bestiality mod that they said they would ban anyone found to have downloaded/used in their game
hey could you do a video on the super hug bug? i dont know much about it but it was like this and it would activate a debug feature for a super hug, slowing down the game
When I was little, my mum used to dress me up like a doll -- curl my hair, ridiculous lace sleeves, the whole shebang -- and, to top it off, she also collected the porcelain dolls. And they lived in my closet. The glass eyes! So many glass eyes!
is this the berries and cream little lad’s back story
@@star-po3gb 👀💦
This sounds like a horror villain origin story. Hope you are alright.
just realized that the reason my dad has been so against cc was bc of this omg
4:39 ah that's how you read that
I'm so fuckin glad I only ever heard about this thing AFTER I started downloading Sims 3 CC, bc this kind of thing was literally *exactly* what I was afraid of back when I played vanilla, lmao
My mom was suuuper into CC for TS3 and this doll drove me crazy!!! I remember trying to place it in cribs and my game immediately crashing, so I gave up on it. It really creeped me out once I realized it was the doll crashing the game.
I feel silly for admitting this but when I was little the centaur cc legitimately made it hard for me to sleep at night. I didn't get it, never did, I never even touched any cc websites or the sims exchange, not even before I heard of it. I don't remember where I heard it, most likely youtube. I thought the disgusting disfigured centaur monsters were scary and was afraid they'd kill me lol
Then again, if your Sims 3 game is lagging, it might just be Island Paradise. *shudder*
Seeing this reminds me off those damn boots you would get from the exchange if you downloaded sims, it made your sim babies either go insible or into this just skin coloured mass that would flash across your screen. (Would love to see an episode on those by the way!!)
Watching this video, I have a feeling that my young stupid self downloaded it and just asked my parents for a new laptop for Christmas instead thinking it was my laptop and not a virus in my game😂😩
Did anyone else have those like adult swimsuits and high boots that infected their game. It would make toddlers look like monsters and stretched out babys to be a light beam. 12 year old me was so stressed 😅
All in favor of the sims team making this a real object in the sims 4 (minus the corruption and such)
But make it a haunted doll and not tell us 😂 I'd love the surprise
I was really hoping they'd make a joke about it with the creepy doll that came with the Paranormal Stuff Pack.
I used to collect the big porcelain dolls when I was younger... now they live in the basement.
dont make them sad...
They're hungry... Feed them...
i never got hit by the doll as far as I know, but I got those broken centaur CCs stuck in my game and there was a women's shirt with a screenshot of a female sim's face on it. Also had a set of hooker boots that were pretty broken too? all three of them would absolutely ruin the models of babies, toddlers, and children (and maybe teens? i don't remember) but from my experience, it was nothing worse than that. i've still got no clue what content they snuck in on, because i deleted all of my cc at some point and they were still in the game
im sure theres more broken cc i had that i just dont remember too lmao
The Nikki from Big Brother soundbite took me right back to that time 😂
I don't even play The Sims anymore but Plumbella's videos are such a joy to watch!
. . .not gonna lie, I too kinda love that the evil broken CC was a creepy doll. XD Makes me glad I skipped that generation of the game! Though I should probably run my Sims 4 custom content through Sims 4 Studio again, just in case. . .
I remember having the doll, the centaur and the broken boots once haha
i remember seeing that doll banner as a kid and being so inexplicably scared even though i had no idea what was going on😂
same it unlocked a core memory lmfao
Please talk about digimon more, if that interests you!! I’d looove to see you play/stream some digimon stuff
I think I might have possibly been a victim of this doll. Shortly after downloading, like, 3 pieces of custom content, my happy building of a cottage kept getting interrupted and deleted (because I couldn't save in build mode, and edit town takes ages to process what you've done, so exiting build mode to save was too time-consuming) by a blue screen of death! And for some reason the screen didn't have any text? Just some horizontal lines! Why!? Then one day, upon loading up my favourite save at the time, I was greeted with a world that looked VERY much corrupted! I don't know how to describe it in a way that other people will understand, but there were giant thin layers of greyness that floated above (but not far above the land of) the entirety of Bridgeport and clipped into everything. It was like someone threw a grey blanket made of polygons on top of the world. And I think at had holes in it and spikes sticking out every here and there. *sigh* I wish I knew how to describe stuff! I'm really curious about what the issue was, but I don't know how to word it when googling it, and I probably can't ask about it in forums because I am so bad at describing stuff and I don't have any pictures to show people what the problem was. So as for now, I'm going to blame it on the doll because this happened very shortly after downloading from the exchange.
what was the name?
Can we talk about the horse outfit and the other outfit, I think it was like a low cut shirt that always turned your sim and babies into Elastigirl. Does anyone know what i'm talking about? it was like an outfit that equipped to your baby in the sims 3 and when the mom came home it was like a horror movie cause the babies limbs where stretched out all over the freaking place. Tell me i'm not the only one who experienced this through the sims exchanged.
I know exactly which shirt you're talking about, between that shirt the tall heeled boots and a couple of hair styles having a baby born is a shot in the dark in my game either the baby is fine or it spaghettis across the screen when it comes home
@@ashrowan2143 OMG I am so glad someone experienced this other then me haha
*I mean, this doll doesn't sound to bad. Now the blood plague glitch from WOW back in the day was referred to as a pandemic in WOW.*
I can't remember the exact custom content creator but in 2021 I had A LOT of cc installed (I was very proud of my collection but my mac wasnt) but i remember downloading this half up half down hairstyle and it corrupted all of my CC files and made all of them not work and started un-installing some of the content in my expansion packs like all of the pets in cats and dogs were broken, none of the clothes in all of my expansions would work and a lot of gameplay wasnt available anymore. I'm not sure if the creators intentions were malicious but it was a pain deleting all of my CC and re-installing TS4 and all of the individual DLC 😭
I still have the problem with invisible feet. I thought I had it fixed by throwing stuff out but I still encounter feetless townies from time to time. The only thing I can do is edit them in CAS with nraas. EA just made their CC system virus ready. It just invites this kind of problem. The Sims is a great game but technically it's a disaster.
If anything this sounds more like it was the fault of the Sims team for making it where custom content could just be automatically put elsewhere in the game.
In general I have a big problem with that in the Sims 4 cause I have body sliders to make my sims be a bit more curvy and busty as that's just the body type I like and the game decides to just give all the premade female Sims MASSIVE honkers using the body sliders I have (which are literally just normal body sliders I've seen other simmers using so don't come at me).
It's honestly the dumbest thing ever cause IMO it should just use the normal content for the premade Sims unless I say otherwise and decide to go in to customize them myself having it where cc just automatically get's placed throughout the game is just dumb cause it's just asking for dumb issues like what I've experienced and this whole cursed doll incident.
It would be cool if you did a video of Knut Futa, who is a dead sim in the sims 2, if you resurrect him he comes back…well interesting maybe a bit creepy to say the least. You should definitely it if you don’t know. Hope you’re having an amazing day! 💜
Really The Sims answer to a virtual corona virus
If the doll was invisible how is there pictures of it
OMG i remember being so scared of this, looking back it's kind of hilarious how it was actually just an accident and yet it spread so much fear around the community
I didn't have the doll but I did have the cursed boots. I was young and only knew how to install sims3package files (use the launcher to install) so I had no idea how to even look at my package files. It was traumatic
I got a lot of cc from the exchange but never encountered this doll! Now, that weird centaur outfit from CAS... oh yeah, I hated that thing!
HOLY CRAP SHE SHOWED PART OF MY MESSAGE!! :0
Viruses still scare tf out of me. These stories give me heebie jeebies. I don’t know why I clicked the video 😭🤣
My game always had those horrible cc hooker boots that were black but also brown and white which would glitch my sims and baby sims, but they wouldn’t show up in my files
Ngl this sounds like the doll was an STI.
Still plagued by the horse body 😭
i never played TS3 during its hey day but it sounds like a wild time
you missed out! i hope you play it now
This is making me wonder if my corrupted Sims files and crappy running is due to this doll's package 🤔
Did anyone else have like. A pair of heels that just fuckin bulldozed their game?
reminds me of the super duper bug in ts2 that could come from infected houses and spread in your game. hated that bug.
you had me at THE DOLL NEEDS THERAPY BABE
subscribed 😩
I already know about this but I just love the story. lol
anyone remember the one that turned sim babies into long stick creatures? looking back that was terrifying but as a kid i thought it was really funny
I mean one aspect of playing on PC that I will always consider superior to consoles is how accessible it is to modders of all skill levels. With that being said is that cc also introduces a greater chance of crashes and corruptions. But hey, mods increasing that risk doesn't mean that risk wasn't there. To claim otherwise is simply being disingenuous. And I'll continue to take that risk if it means I get to play a game with content that has greater value to me than almost everything else shoveled out by the corporate drones.
I had 150+ Victorian style porcelain dolls growing up. Been slowly sneaking them into my married home over the last 2 years. I had 5 of my favourite childhood dolls when I got married 6 years ago. I now have 20 dolls in the house. My husband hasn't noticed.
Ooh a mystery. I’m only familiar with the Sims 2 history so I am hooked just by the title. New information….
You should totally do one of these videos on those awful thigh high boots that made babies and toddlers look like monsters and were hard to find and remove.
omg WHAT 💀
IIRC, the team has addressed messed-up (in the ethical sense) TS4 mods by condemning them
Oh yeah I remember some drama it was like the wicked whims mod only children could take part too ... A different creator too.
What does iirc mean
@@nameless568 'If I Recall Correctly' :3
@@PixieBulb I've always thought it was "if I remember correctly", but that's basically synonymous
