She keeps her mods very up-to-date and they should all be working; they do for me. Make sure you have the latest XML Injector, and that any script files that go with her mods are no more than two levels deep in your mods folder.
It's funny that mine don't do that, or cook at all. Just the laundry, and coming in to wash their hands, but I can't really complain about that considering what their job is. They also do the dishes, and mop the floor. But I've never had one cook.
LittleMsSam has a mod that makes them take off their winter clothes when they go inside, which might help with this issue. Also, make sure the house doesn't have any spots without a roof. Even one missing tile above a room can make the game see it as "outside."
To me, Oasis Springs is the Phoenix area or southern Arizona. I guess Strangerville is supposed to be Roswell more or less, and I was hoping Chestnut Ridge would be another hot desert area because I like to limit my Sims' traveling to areas that seem like they would be geographically close, unless they actually take a…
I hope they added milk and wool to the Horse Ranch pack for people who don't have Cottage Living. It wouldn't be fair to not have goat milk and sheep's wool if you buy HR but don't have CoL.
Mine will do gardening, repairs and taking care of horses and livestock but you do have to choose those things from the Ranch Hand menu. They will also clean inside the house, which I personally wish they wouldn't but there doesn't seem to be a way to stop that. The worst thing though is that while they can collect manure…
What finally seems to be working is locking for everyone then individually unlocking for family members and the ranch hand. At least when sheep or goats get out when somebody else opens it, you can collect them into your inventory all at once and place them back inside the fence.
That's what I did too, but somehow the goat still got through. I had to unlock it for for Sims and the cat, leaving it locked only for the goat, sheep and any other Sims outside of the household. With all that individual unlocking I might have messed it up.
Are they saying that Katrina is literally not their mother, in some sort of attempt to cover up the backward wokeness that caused them to have to change her name from the original Muslim name she had? Or did they ADMIT that they changed it and are just saying it's not her original name?
I'm not sure that nobody talks about it, but I only recently discovered Simvasion's Sink Handwashing Fix. It forces Sims to use a sink to wash their hands that's within 10 tiles of where they are. In other words, it stops Sims walking halfway across the house to a different bathroom to wash their hands.
Download somebody else's save. I recently started SweetieWright's and it's fascinating because I don't know ANY of the people, and every single lot is different. It's like a whole new game.
LittleMsSam reports that all her mods are good with today's patch. I'm hoping generally all mods are. She also added a new mod today, My Favorite Raincoat.
Of those, I would probably go with the Dell with the GeForce graphics. I do pretty well with my HP X360 2-in-1 Pavilion. Ultra high graphics is what it defaults to, but I haven't played yet with all my custom content in.
