Garden Obsessed!

My interest in building houses is really waning in Sims 4 but I am becoming obsessed with gardens:

Vegetable Garden

I recently built Subterranean Splendour which you can download from the Gallery here – https://www.thesims.com/en_GB/gallery/69D8AFC4E0B611E5826B084593B40FFF

It’s a small house buried beneath a lovely garden:

It’s the ultimate in peaceful living for your little Simmies.

El Capitan, Macs with NVIDIA graphics and a possible fix

SimGuruModSquad over on the official forums has posted links to NVIDIA’s website where you can download updated graphics drivers. He’s encouraging people to give it a try and report any feedback on the Sims 4 Mac Bug thread. This is specifically aimed at those running El Capitan who can no longer play Sims 4 due to their NVIDIA graphics cards not being compatible with the game.

I’ve written a guide on how to manually update the drivers because of course we’re not meant to do it and it’s never normally recommended, all updates come from Apple. You can find the guide here – https://bluebellflora.com/manually-update-nvidia-geforce-graphics-drivers-in-os-x/.

I tested it in OS X 10.11.3 and everything went well. I have the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650 1024Mb which wasn’t one of the ones affected so I can’t say if this fixes the issue or not. If you are on one of the affected Macs PLEASE post your results if you try this manual update. It may just be the miracle fix that everyone has been waiting for.

Donkey Kong Jr on the Nintendo Game & Watch

This is something I have to share with you all. This was the first ever handheld I owned, I think circa 1984 maybe? I played it so much it fell to pieces, literally. That was a sad, sad day when it was thrown away. I hope you enjoy this fabulous piece of nostalgia as much as me ❤
