My gamer heart looks at all that and hopes we'll get to visit them all.

My layout heart looks at all those hand-placed, unaligned boxes and starts having palpitations ...
yeah, that's just a flattened out copy of the file I have that has everyone of them on a seperate layer for faster referencing when I need them. It wasn't set up as a finished product. I will probably eventually make a Mall Map and Directory from this as a finished product

Great News!!

--- not!

Well, it seems that Pixabay has gone the way of the other big music license providers like Artist.io and Element, and added an Anti-Pornography clause in their service licensing agreement, so I will have to remove ALL of the music from my game and find alternative sources for it prior to publication.

The right music makes the game soooo much better, but it's such a pain to find!!!

I would suggest no copyright music on YouTube, the simplest solutions can be the best:WeSmart:
The first thing what i've found is this:
It sounds like music in 90s porn:KEK:
From Audio Library's fine print licensing terms...

Anti-porn clause right there...It was burried pretty deep, took me about 5 minutes of searching to find. They try to hide these so you will pay for the service for a few months before you get hit with a lawsuit and find out that YOU violated their terms.

Soon the only way to get music will be to make your own or hire someone to make it for you (and don't sample anything) ...

So, I may have found an option for music, but it looks like it may be costly. Shutterstock's Enterprise division has a department that will actually work as a licensing broker on your behalf and track down specific artists for you and report back to you to let you know the price they were able to negotiate for you to license whatever song it is you are wanting. Unknown artists and songs are typically between $50 to $200 per song, or if I wanted to, I could pay a few thousand dollars a song and have stuff from Metalica, Guns and Roses, or whoever else I wanted to cough up the money for, but if I do that each update will have to sell for about $75 to $100 a pop, which no one is goint to pay. So most likely, no "livin on a prayer" or "californication" in UC8.

Idea with NC music was not good i know.
I've got another bad idea;), i found an artist who made soundtrack to Photo Hunt:



I dunno how it's possible site allowed this or maybe artist agreed:unsure:
Yeah, I may have to go to something like this, I am in contact with an artist on Discord who also makes songs like this, but I really want to have actual vocal tracks in my game. Songs that you find yourself singing as you go about your day and then hope no one says where did you hear that song? lol

Haven't posted here for a few days, but I'm still plugging right along. I am hoping for a July 1st release date if I can get everything done.

Got most of the realtor scenes done and chose all new music for the game. Changed the logo for Williams Realty. The other one just looked too much like comercial real estate to me. This one looks more like homes...

W Realty card  .jpg

The card also contains 2 easter eggs.

If you need a home in Renwick, just stop by her office.

Dear Sir , Post more MY Beloved Erin's wallpaper andI will happily hear you Sing:sleep::sleep::sleep::ROFLMAO:
I will happily post more of Erin soon, but at the moment I am doing lots of Stacy renders in the new house. To be honest, Erin may not make the first Eppisode, unless I decide to back it up by another month to make the release bigger and get further into the story, which I may have to do...
