    Hi, it's ammar2! The neighborhood prefix is important for the file, it won't work without it. Also, you could theoretically do any length video you want so long as its size is lower than your available RAM. So that 500mb file was already pushing it a little.

      Hey! Thank you for uploading this awesome tool. I know a lot of people in The Sims 2 community have been asking about this for years and no one thought it was possible.
      Yeah I noticed later you mentioned the prefix thing on the modthesims page which I did actually read but then forgot somehow later. 😅 Also good to know about the size limit.

    This just goes to show that even though this game is about 2 decades old people still love and enjoy it which makes me very happy as well. Thank you for sharing!

    Ohhh I remember seeing this mod on the featured pages on MTS, absolutely insane that even after all this time, something so impossible-seeming was done
    The modding community is definitely insane ahahhahah

    I thought it had been deemed impossible, but more and more things are proven to be possible these days...

    I immeadiately had to think of Spirited Away when the Piano music from the Sims 1 soundtrack started as well
    I already saw this program on the Sims 2 subreddit and I'm exited to try it out to 'complete' my custom neighborhoods. Also including footage of the Shadow Bunny hiding behind some bushes is a very nice way to immeadiately establish some story aspects of the hood. That just unlocked a whole new mental chamber of ideas for me.

    I don’t know how I can write to you else, I know it’s not connected to this video buuuut. Have you tried having an alien male baby and as it grows up it gets abducted again? Wouldn’t it corrupt the game completely?

    • @CalipersandTongs
      @CalipersandTongs  Рік тому +3

      I haven't tried it but I don't think that would corrupt the game. In terms of genetics if they get pregnant (if that's possible I haven't tried,) it would basically be incest though I think. (Unless you use a mod that adds multiple pollination technicians to a neighbourhood.) I want to make a video about the pollination technicians though at some point.

    I play in another language, so the Pleasantview name is different, the fly in doesn't start when I enter the neighborhood, does anyone know how to make it work?

    • @CalipersandTongs
      @CalipersandTongs  Рік тому

      Have you tried renaming the hood Pleasantview and seeing if it starts? It might be that they didn't think to localise that part of the code so it works with the localised names. (I don't know if there's a mod that fixes that floating around, but that might be a quick fix if you don't care about the name.)

    • @jesaea
      @jesaea Рік тому +1

      You need to name it Pleasantview. Sadly the names work only for English versions of said names :(

    I honestly think you should stick to the sims content, as much as you would like to venture into different games on this channel, most people are subscribed and here for your usual corruption series or blightgate series. I am referring to the spyro videos you have on your channel, not sure if you noticed but the less consistent your content is, the less youtube will suggest your videos to anybody, including your own subscribers. Take TannySims for example, who hasn't posted in some time, with spread out sims content they have gained past 5k subscribers which you're not far from yourself, but you can tell in the viewer count which channel is performing better for sims corruption or in general sims videos and that is ofc Tanny. No offence to you though, I have been watching your channel for so long, I just would like to see you grow! An idea would to create another channel for all other games you may want to play. Thanks for the sims video!👍

      Hey, I get what you're saying and I know most people are here for The Sims 2 stuff but I think there's a limit to how far I can grow this channel even then since I'll run out of Blightgate/corruption related stuff and there's a limit to how much you can grow in this kind of niche. Also even my Sims 2 videos don't perform as well as some other UA-camrs making similar content as you mention, so I don't think it's just the type of content.
      I knew the Spyro video wasn't going to be popular but it was bothering me that I left that unfinished after the first video so I'm probably going to finish that series gradually at least. Just for my own sake really. I'm planning on sandwiching those videos in between other stuff so it won't be lots of Spyro all at once.
      If I started over now I probably would have just made one channel for Sims and then one for Spyro, and so on, but I was kind of attached to this username which is Elder Scrolls related and so always planned to one day go back to that (though ironically I haven't so far.) And the more Sims 2 stuff I upload with nothing else the more it will just be self fulfilling because people will subscribe just for that so it's difficult and that's been on my mind as well. I've also considered swapping this name with a different channel but I think that could lead to more confusion.
      Anyway thanks for the comment. I know this isn't a great move growth wise, but I guess for the time being I'm willing to sacrifice some of that. But yeah I was aware (I notice other UA-camrs like Fakegamergirl also addressed this in videos,) and I've just been trying to work around it/compromise re channel growth basically. 😅
