DON'T USE IT! That is, unless you want your sim to go around swirling in sparkles forever! I used it on Nellie and the sparkles were quite annoying after a while. I don't know WTH EAxis was thinking by doing that...lol Of course, maybe some folks don't mind the sparkles, but they were driving crazy, so I went in search of a hack to take them away, but there wasn't one, except for a super computer hack taht does all sorts of things. I downloaded and installed that anyway because it has the option to remove rewards. So now, thank goodness, Nellie is sparkle free, as a great explorer should be!

LOL! I read the title and thought, eye candy... Tina has found some hot looking sim. Not colour swirls! What a stupid 'reward'

Well I think the eye candy reward would come in handy for all the Twilight fans who like sparkling vampires...you know how Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen just sparkles in the sun ;D LOL

Yeah, when I was trying to find a solution, I saw several comments by Twilight fans stating something just like that. But, even the vamps in Twilight didn't sparkle CONSTANTLY! It gets highly annoying after a while, so I thought I'd give everyone who isn't sparkle crazy a heads up. LOL

To think I actually wanted to get that benefit for Logan, Val's DH. Thanks for letting us know, I don't think Val would be too happy with Logan sparkling all the time, esp when they have triplets to raise. So what exactly does the reward do? Does the sim become more attractive. Do they get hit on autonomously more often or do other sims follow him/her around?

Actually, the only thing it does besides sparkling is to put an 'eye candy' moodlet in the cue of all the sims who around that sim. I guess it's just a little positive boost for the other sims in the room..lol. I know one thing: the sparkling gets on my nerves after awhile and I'm not going to use that one until/unless EAxis or a modder stops the sparkles. You'll see an example of how the sparkles look when I post the next segment of my adventureer pic spam story.

I often wonder if EA ever takes notice of what people say. It's all over the place that many people don't like the TS2 witch sparkles, there are mods to stop it, so why would they think we would want it on TS3? Talking of which I guess I should load it up and let it crash to get that code.

EAxis doesn't much care. They like putting all that annoying crap into the game.

Yeah I can see it now...
"Hey Fred how about we add some sparkles to this"
"Oh yeah, lets have some fun"
"So how much are we betting this time"
"I'll bet you $20 that it will take those modders 3 months"
"No way, I'll say 3 weeks"
