IT'S DONE! appx. 20MB At the end you'll find the special surprise I've been working on, and the main reason I kept on pushing this back. And in case you're wondering...yes...that's me...as Strong Bad... >_> EDIT: And in case it wasn't already painfully obvious...TELL WHAT U THINK!!! |

Yeah. You should send that in as Fanstuff. RIGHT NOW. Oh. So now you still have to do all those other places. Good luck! Happy..... Sim......ing! Are you SURE you can't make the characters? You could get some help from other people. It would be cool to watch them all interact and do incredibly boring crap. |

It would likely take me several months just to LEARN how to do them...then I'd have to actually DO them. 5000 views on this thread...awesome, LOL. 
I'm gonna go outside for a bit. Tonight, I'll fire up more screenshots for the bandwidth-challenged, since they haven't seen screens since my last video! I haven't forgotten you! |

Augh, I left for a while, hopign it'd be finished loading, but it hadn't done anything. Apparently a "Network error occurred" (I guess it had occurred before I left, 'cause it looked like it wasn't loading. I thought it was ust loading slowly... you know, 'cause of all the awesomeness and stuff. That's gotta take up a lot of bytes, right?) Loading a lot faster now. So that's good. EDIT: Wow. That's one of the four most awesome things I've ever seen (Aproximately) I can't wait to see the rest of FCUSA. It's too bad you can't put the actuyal characters in it, that'd be really cool. Still gonna be awesome, though. |

I really like the finished product, especially the shrine. I enjoy the attention to detail, since you put Strong Bad's bedroom in the basement. However, if you freeze at 0:12, part of the shrine can be seen for a second. But at that angle, it doesn't look important or anything.

Hehe...glad you all liked it! Now...screenshots for the bandwidth-challenged! Floor Overviews First Floor, front view First Floor, back view Second floor, front view Second floor, back view Outside Front Porch ("I'll leave the key under the at-may!") Back porch Balcony - YUP, he's got a balcony! Nothin' too fancy though. One-pic Rooms Compy 386, with a view of the "Douglas" tree outside Entryway Garage Laundry Room Living Room Strong Bad's Room Overview The corner of his room that's visible on SB's main page Strong Mad's Room Overview Strong Mad's Dresser and Bed - "We had to get him a double-wide just so he could FIT in it!" Strong Sad's Room Overview Strong Sad's Desk and TV - Note: this is the TV where he shows you Little Strong Bad's comedy routine in the email "stand-up," and the desk where he was making a card for Anthony in "depressio" Bathroom Mirror - "For hundreds of years it has haunted mankind....." (from email "narrator") Bathtub - "One night in Bangkok and the rough got rougher...!" (from "Homestar Presents: Presents") Basement Overview Sittin' at the couch staring at the TV...and the two exits into Strong Bad's Room Kitchen Somehow it makes weird sense for The Cheat to put his computer in the kitchen... and there's a nice '80s toaster oven on the right too. The blender - "I'm tryin' to make a real fruit smoothie here..." (you're FIRED if you don't know what that's from!) Special BONUS Area The door into the special area - what could be inside?

Ah HA! He may not have boxing gloves, but other than that, I've done it! STRONG BAD! Imitating a pose from his "modeling" cartoon. (This one is full-body, so you can see his feet better.) This is the result of simple texture recolors, which I CAN do...but no new meshes -- hence, no boxing gloves. That took care of the mask. I used the same method to make a "transparent" tank for him, so he looks like he's going around shirtless. Finally there was a standard pair of black pants that looked just his style. And there he is! EDIT: Also, like in the cartoons, the mask IS his face. This means it's genetic. This means there will be some ridiculously hilarious moments when he finally gets lucky with a girl and has a child... Because I fitted the mask to be worn by BOTH sexes of ALL age ranges! Which means, you guessed it, depending on whose face the child inherits, he or she may come straight out of the womb with a Strong Bad wrestling mask!

What I want to know is what you did with his personality.
Seriously though. I heard that's a cool new thing in Sims 2. |

When I first made him, it randomly selected a Zodiac sign and a personality to go with it... It picked Libra, and it pretty much pegged him. Mostly sloppy/messy, mostly lazy (as opposed to active), very outgoing, mostly nice with a little grouchy streak now and then. Personally I like his boots. And did anyone notice in the video that one of Strong Sad's walls was unpainted?! I noticed it after posting and have corrected it, but it happened because I had to tear down the wall that was there originally and make the room 1 square smaller so I could do what I wanted with Strong Mad's room. (Strong Sad's always the one to suffer!) |

So when you're finished, you could make a lot of this available for download on the Internet, right? Because I'm sure all of us would love to have our own personal FCUSA.......... it'd be fun to see the crazy character interactions that all of the people have, in particular.... |

But wasn't he evicted or something?
And the apartment IS a styhole. Kinda. Everyone normally lives in Homsar's and Deutschman's apartment (Senor Cardgage lives on the fourth floor along), so therefore their bathrooms are generally used a lot. Bubs just so happens to live there, too. In fact, I moved Coach Z out, made some quick changes to the house, moved Z in, put the stuff I deleted back, and shaved him bald! I would show photos, but not even Picasa seems to be picking them up! And I really like how you actually managed to get Strong Bad's mask to actually be part of him. The best I could do was give him full face makeup. And it has residual white on the sides. But I could give you his green eyes to top it all off. That is, if I can find it. All I did was cut 'n paste and really cheat on it, but it's still practically flawless in the program itself. And although it's still a clothing pair, I can give you The Cheat's "fur", though it looks completely rushed. Could use it as a bit of a blueprint IF The Cheat skin is coming. I can also give you a Homestar/Strong Sad-type skin. All i really did was change the brightness to really up. I always get errors whenever I try to really make a different skin. It annoys me. And one last thing... you forgot to sand off Strong Bad's nipples.

A friend of mine came over yesterday and said Strong Bad looked like Spider-Man. Personally I think he looks more like a red version of the guys in Blue Man Group!

If I could make a suggestion, I wouldn't think that The Cheat (who resides in KOT grill) would live so far from The Strong's house. Not a big deal, really...all and all you're doing a good job. |

Awesome, AWESOME fancy danish. This is cool. And I like your Strong Bad impression. XD Hmmm... We've never really seen their living room, have we? And will you be adding the pool somewheres? |

We've seen it, it was shown briefly in helium, and maybe one other time. |

The "maybe one other time" Ju Ju is referring to is probably in "two emails". NO LADIES SHOWED UP!!!' Yeah. But what about the pool? Will you be adding the pool? WHERE'S THE POOL??????? ARE YOU LISTENING TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE??????????? |

Yup, no ladies showed up! Hence my comment about "I don't know how I thought we were gonna fit a million ladies in here anyways." The pool, I think, isn't at SB's house. It looked like more of a community pool to me. Maybe near the athletic field. |

Quote: Sims 2 doesn't let you customize THAT far. =P Not that I'm aware of anyway. Aah, but it does. At least if you have Sim City 4. Like I do! If no one else will, I'll make it for you... Quote: Ah HA!
He may not have boxing gloves, but other than that, I've done it! STRONG BAD! Oh... man. Can you put those textures up for download? (computer joke.) Please? Like, on the Sims 2 website? |

Here's a code that can remove the roads from the neighborhood view. The only problem is that I can't say if it's true and it might screw the entire project up. So, test this on a throwaway neighborhood first. The only reason I'm puttn ghtis up is so that there can be a more realistic Free Country. boolprop displayNeighborhoodRoads (True/False) Set to false to remove roads from neighborhood |
