PMBD Baby Roast

[Saraswati]

nah, agree with Cala.. any form of chat or im can be a total energy sucker. The next four hours of your life can commonly dissapear.

[calalily]

Installing stuff like that inevitably leads to how about I check this today, and the next 9 hours magically disappear.  So I don't do it at all because I know I'll be tempted.  And while this may have taken 5 seconds in chat, I have used this time productively elsewhere.

Huh? Check WHAT? There's nothing to check. Did you spend your time "productively" thinking of utter nonsense, Stupid Calalily? Because that's what it LOOKS like.

Check chat rooms relevant to my interests unrelated to PMBD baby roasts.  I whiled away many an hour on S2C chat which could have been used productively.  Once in a chat, I cannot bring myself to look away, and since I never shut up, I give up only when my fingers are tired.  They are much better off getting tired via thesis.

I'm not sure how that follows. If you don't want to, why would you do that? That wasn't included in the instructions. You don't have to use it at all once dismissed. Or install anything. You can just use the one at http://www.mibbit.com

Also, death to Calalily.

Pescado, it's just the way it is.. chat involves catch up and other discussion not involved with the task. It's jsut the done thing.

Pescado either may enjoy whittling away the hours in banter.. either that or he might be a get in and get it done person.. It's bad social ettiquette though. You need to have at least a little social banter with someone otherwise they're going to feel slightly used.

I do enjoy MSN/Yahoo chats a couple of times a week, I just need to build up my energy and do other things in the middle.

That's going to be hard to accomplish if you're in a private channel with just me screaming insults at you and you.

I am not an F, so I don't feel anything. Besides, I'm not sure how it's AGAINST anything. You are summoned to my office, debriefed and given new orders, and then you are dismissed. That is pretty standard. We are people with a mission here.

Totally - she can't control herself.  I can't shut up here, so the chance to do less shutting up is a killer for me.  I know my limits, and chat software and chat rooms are murder. I will however make your mesh, just will not make any excursion to grah - even through web browser.  The temptation to check would be too great, so I'm not going to do that either.  Since I can be found here while not sleeping, and talk in between doing stuff, if I could control myself then this is as good as you would get in grah anyway.

All that time I was prodding my memory - we can also use bootsbrisket's baby table for display. http://www.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=51007

Stopping meshing to read insults is counterproductive.

Yep, but most other people do feel stuff which is why chats usually take a while. Which is why if you don't have the time it can take more energy than it's worth at times.

And it's hard to give orders when you're not paying anyone and the whole thing is voluntary. People are likely to just laugh unless they feel like doing what you need them to do.

Now, I'm going to go ahead and assume you aren't going to waste more time arguing with me about what I will not do anyway, and make me get my arse into gear.

I thought not only a roast, but also baby in a pot:

I can't seem to find any standard "baby roasting" pictures - so would a simple barbeque type implement be satisfactory?

Will you need me to pull animations when cloning?

[Pescado]

Well, we need some kind of barbecue implement, in which a baby can be placed. So I suggest one of the crib redone so that the mesh functions both as a crib and a hooded grill.

Yep - no problem - cloned and about to be meshed.  Is that bbq picture satisfactory? The baby in a pot will be based on the high chair - that way the baby will sit in it.

If you still need help with textures, I'll gladly put my name in the hat.  This is the most horrible, wonderful thing I've ever heard of.  LOL!

[calalily]

This was borne of Darqstar's mention, so you should ask her what needs doing. I will be happy there's no recolouring involved. 

Okay. Grill for approval:



I will be meantime working on baby in a pot.

[Pescado]

I don't think the pot idea is quite as viable, but the barbecue should work. I suggest the larger 2-tile grill, though, as they come with a lid large enough to enclose the resulting baby. The object must also simultaneously function as a barbecue grill, so you should be able to apply the same GMDC/GMND/CRES/SHPE thing to either object and it should work.

[calalily]

Okay, will skip the pot.  I haven't mapped or regrouped that - I just want to know if it's what you want right now.

Also, for GUIDs, don't bother registering or using GUIDs with SimPE: I will use my own, just throw in some random crap as a placeholder. Like 0xDEADBEEF or something.
