Okay guys, guess it’s time to announce that I’m ‘officially’ in away mode and on a movie making hiatus, since to be honest, I don’t have this much desire left to be dealing with Sims 2 anymore. This includes pretty much everything, movies, hacks or even just playing..

Now as for the sims 3, yes i can’t wait to play it, i really hope  the game play will feel more realistic and more advanced, esp when it comes to sim ppl AI’s.
Now as for the movies, like seriously, i think it won’t be after a year after the release before some decent movies could be made with it. Hope I’m wrong, but this is how it was with sims 2. First people got into playing with it, making custom content, and developing hacks and just after that, movie makers had at least some tools at their disposal…
At this point I can’t even say for sure if i will be making movies with sims 3, as well, I’ve no idea what the moviemaking aspect of the game will look like. But what i really really want is making my own 3d animated movies and not be limited by game platforms anymore. currently i’m learning to use 3d editors, so we’ll see what happens.

So to sum this all up, I’ll be in ‘away’ mode.. so I won’t be spending too much time on the site, meaning i may take a loong time to reply, so if you are looking some ‘help’ you know this is not the right place, kay.

Now another small update, if you go to my about me page, you wont see an empty space anymore. I just had this plan of making an awesome page with lost of scripts going on but guess i was too lazy for that so i just put together a brief intro n stuff…

I also remade the mp4’s of my movies, now the the format is more suitable for iPods, so here’s the mp4 links for all of my movies again:

EDIT: These and movie file downloads will no longer be offered, as i had to remove them due to copyright crap

My new movie is out! It’s a music video to From Yesterday by 30 Seconds To Mars. It’s a sci-fi drama set in future about an inventor building a robot using technology of a new generation. But later it turns out that something went wrong and…………well find out about the rest here

Well don’t expect much like I said it’s far from perfect, but.. it’s sure worth watching :) 

And by the way the storyline page is up, and it explains everything in detail and completes the storyline as I tried to stay away from the subtitles, so in case if you’re lost, check it out. But watch the movie first!

So well, thanks alot to all the game modders for making our lives easier and all the CC makers for all your hard work, as it wouldn’t look as good without you guys. Thanks Jovial aka OneJovialSim for helping me out with animations and listening to all my stupid ramblings :P And all my fans for your support and patience so well hope you guys like it:)

The FAQ is under construction, but  I’ll be updating this FAQ thread with what I’ve got so far. If you have any questions about the movie (and I bet you will :P) please post them on the forum, as I will have a permalink of me replying and it’ll be easier for me to just give a url to sb who asks me the same type of q in the future.

The Custom Content page is also under construction, but so far it has all cc used on the main characters. Will update the cc list with everything else asap..

The Making Of page will be up sometime soon and it’s gonna explain everything in detail… so well wait for that

 And I’m uploading it to youtube soon just wait a bit!

Well, those of you who somehow got this suspicion about my sudden ‘come back’ and all the updates I’ve been making lately, well yeah they are not without a reason.

Yes, I’ve been secretly working on something. Haven’t told many people because I had no idea how things would go anyways.  Like whats the point of making a stir when the release date could be just a month away or it could as well be 4 months away? I had no control over it. I couldn’t work on it *all* or most of the time like I basically did with my other movies. Now there were always some things that would be more urgent than the movie. I started making it sometime in october last year. And then I would occasionally come back to it when i was in a mood.. which caused very very long breaks…. I almost finished it now, as I had some free time and I knew I wouldn’t have it later, so it was one of these ‘now or never’ things and In fact it’s been 99% finished for over a week, I just been waiting for my computer upgrade to make the final edit and in the meantime, I was just redoing my site..

The movie is not that great, but what sucks even more is that everyone is excpecting me to come up with some goddamn masterpiece.. and too high expectatins kill the fun. and it’s nothing that special.. just.. a movie  is that better? :P

Don’t think I’ll post a trailer this time. As I just don’t get what’s the point in making a 30 seconds [<-- and this was my hint :P and besdes the song was on my myspace ]trailer for a movie which is 5 minutes long but well i could tease you just a bit with some raw facts :P

Well the movie is set in the future and has this sci-fi/action vibe. The band’s name starts with a number and the movie title could’ve been Runaway, although it will be same as the title of the song.  Not as romantic as my other movies, although it was supposed to be, but things didn’t  exactly go according to the plan and it will also have an unsolved/interrupted  ending, although unlike helena, it is supposed to be followed by a sequel, which i may or may not make eventually.

I don’t know when I’m gonna post it, as you know it’s not just about a movie anymore.. rendering right size takes time, uploading takes time, reuploading takes time (as i’m sure it will happen), making storyline page takes time and the early versions of faq’s too… so yeah don’t ask me when. I personally want to release it as soon as possible. So this post was just to let you know that you should check back later when youre bored or something, as my new movie could be up sometime :) so yea stay tuned!
