A Quiet Return
Hello everyone at TSR.
You may not know me but I was once an active member of the Sims Community and I loved making stuff for the game and then sharing them.
I used to create CC for Sims 1, 2 and 3 as well as setup scenes for photgraphy.
Although I still play Sims all the time, I haven't created anything for long time - years in fact, and I really miss the community.
There are many reasons for this, some are very personal and some I don't mind sharing such as the fact I was diagnosed with a serious neurological condition and therefore had some money issues as I couldn't keep my job.
This led to other things and long story short I have been a desperate depression case for years.
Anyway, a shining light in my life at the moment, that may have saved my life, is my website (chartxgames.com) to which I dedicate my working time.
Now we have that cleared up, I wanted to say that I am back and I might be sticking around for a while if that's OK with you guys.
To mark my return I have uploaded my first Sims 4 content here at TSR.
It's not CC, just a nice little home (named Quarry View) that I hope you like. Note that it might not be approved yet.
It's been nice looking at the profiles of my favorite artists and even better to see that they are still around and making amazing stuff.
I'll try to be more active from now on and share some content.
For now, have a great Friday night (UK) and happy Simming.
Your friend,
Michael.

Object Creating
Made my first object today. Its just a painting but its the first step into Sims 3 original object creation. Watch this space Simmers.
Elegant Mansion
I've uploaded a mansion thats worth mentioning since its had over 300 downlaods now. Its called Holmbrook House available from my page.
This house took me 4 days to complete and the decorating style for the most part was inspired by large American homes and some parts of the Whitehouse, yeah you read that right.
The thing I love about this home though is that I managed to get a lot of detail into it without using any store items, CC or expansion requirements. It does need the latest update though.
So, I hope you guys like it and I'll be back with a new home soon; feel free to drop suggestions.
Happy Simming,
Michael.
I'm Back and Better than Ever...
Well its been a while but I'm back into the world of the Sims and I'm keen to get started on some new lot building, getting acquainted with the new features of the latest patches and getting to work on my first custom content for the Sims 3.
Last November I started to have money troubles after losing my well paid job and having to pay bills that seemed endless. In order to raise money I had to sell my HDTV, my Playstation 3 and worst of all, my custom built (by me) high spec computer which I used to play Sims 2 and Sims 3. I had to dig out my old PC to use for simple computing tasks as its not even worth putting Sims on it because it won't run well enough to enjoy.
However, the Gods of fortune have looked down upon me and I have been able to get my hands on some new RAM and a new graphics card, and the Sims 3 runs fine now even on high settings; you have no idea how much I've missed my little virtual friends.
Anyway, I'm gonna get stuck into a good game tonight, read some CC tutorials tomorrow and get cracking on some new stuff over the weekend ready to upload to TSR on Monday.
Happy Simming everyone,
Michael.
