Ooh, nice new thread! Bookmarking.

Just one thing though.. The logic skill is missing from your list of skills/classes for said skills. Logic classes can be taken at the Science Lab as well. (:

Thanks for your answers to my past questions! I don't know how you manage to answer every question, but you do a heck of a good job at it! Kudos.

Ador997 írta:Dear Aarin:

Compedium or Compendium?

Either way, I read you all the time!

You're great and you can even kick poida's bottom (maybe it will be a more even fight this weekend now that he's a girl )

Dag yo, now I gotta redo the image.

Thanks for pointing this out on 2nd page and not like, 90th page! I really appreciate it.

Yay! Good eye. :9 Adding.

Woot arrin thread!!! Party up in here!!!

Also, do you have a link to a guide for sim-parties? I'd love to know what benifits they have (Like funeral and such)

A number of people have encountered a glitch where an engaged couple cannot get married. As in, they're in great moods, they find each other irresistible, and the wedding options just won't show up, no matter how many romantic interactions are done. Do you know a work around for this glitch other than killing the relationship and starting over?

There is no real difference between parties besides social interactions available (you can console, cry on shoulder, speak highly of the dead, etc at funerals). But I will write something up and shove it up in the post anyway.

I've got three questions for you right here:

Oh also, about food that is in your pockets. I know that if you keep cooked food in you pockets for too long, like hot dogs, salad, waffles, etc., it will eventually go bad. Does this apply to food harvested from gardening too? For example, will my outstanding grapes go down to excellent, very nice, nice, and so on until they are bad?

Sounds painful o_____O

I have a question about downloading things with the launcher.

Is there any way to change the folder it goes to? i.e. my downloads are currently directed at my sims 3 disc/DVD drive but it has 0 bytes left. I know where I want all my downloads directed to but I don't quite know how to make it. Help? :[

I am going to assume both of these sims are well-adjusted and do not have any issues trait-wise with one another (no commitment issues, no clashing traits, etc). So all the stars are aligned, these two sims are engaged. Their relationship is maxed, they both find each other "very alluring" and no option to get married pops up under romantic interactions..

I want to confirm though, that you have tried to get married in the privacy of your own home. Yes/no? Wedding party, yes/no? I know these sound like obvious questions but I need to start checking things off so I have an adequate picture.

Do non-playable Ghost Sims eventually depart for the Netherworld?

Do hidden traits "add" to the five, or are all those townies I see with less than five traits just having hidden ones?

I can't talk for anyone else that has encountered this, but in my situation I stopped getting new options after proposing. I let them cool off for a few days, since it was late at night by then, and tried to get them to have a private wedding, but the option never showed up. Tried a wedding party the next day, same deal. They get to the point where they ignore everything else in favour of each other, but no wedding options. She's absent minded, bookworm, loves the outdoors, angler, and coward. He's a social worker, so only has the trait frugal.

I've had no problem getting other sims married, even ones with incompatible traits. I've seen a few other threads with the same problem reported.

jmz95 írta:1. If I change the age setting (normal, short, long, epic) in one game, will it change the settings in the other files too?

2. If my brother uses the cheat to set his family's needs to static (all needs max all the time), will it affect my game file too?

3. About the Lifetime Wish, when do I have to choose it (can it be at child, teen, or have to be at young adult), and does it have to be random, like the traits and such?
Note: I know nothing has to be random on the founder.

1) No and yes. It is not dynamic, but these settings are universal, so if you load up the other save, it will adjust.

2) Believe it or not, when I attempted to switch saves right now, the static needs did carry over. However, you will simply need to shift+click the mailbox to set them dynamic again. This is only an issue if you play your save immediately after he is done with his. All cheats and cheat settings will clear when you restart the game programme too.

3) When a sim ages from teenager to young adult, you will be forced to choose one. However, random LTW will appear in the wishes box to be selected throughout the childhood of that sim, be careful not to accidentally pick one prematurely.

Since, from your words, you seem concerned about this in regards to the legacy challenge: No, you do not need to make your LTW random for heirs or anyone in a legacy household. I believe pinstar was very specific that you could choose your ltw.

If my sim gets an oppurtunity to lock his liftime wish in and i dont like it so I delete it, will he/she ever get another one?
thanks,

1) No, not that I am aware of. However, they can do so if made playable, by clicking their tombstone in their inventory and selecting the option. Also, if they die of old age in that state as well.

2) Yes, hidden traits can count as the sixth trait if you have a child, as I believe some traits like pyro show themselves later in life, when you have probably already selected you last trait. (I'd actually appreciate if someone could confirm this, as I have had minimal hands-on with hidden traits and am basing this on what I've read on MATY and other places.) Service sims, for whatever reason, just seem to be lacking traits period. I do not know why.
