      I've tried using his time mod but it confused me too much! Have no idea how to even use it...

      That could be related to your CPU speed, and graphics card.

      I hate it when they freak out at the sight of ghost and robots.

      PS. I love your dog!!!!!! is it in your studio????

      I actually believe its just because of the size of my save, there are ALOT of children in my game. Plus I have a gaming PC with a good Graphics card and CPU speed is better than good.

      No the dogs not in my studio as its not my creation!! I downloaded a whole lot of breeds re-done, forgot the name of the guy now. Give me a minute i'll try and find them for you :)

      I had the school issue too. I ended up adding a 2nd school rabbit hole to my town to help as there were so many kids crowding the first one. As my sim family's kids and the townies aged up it seemed to help a little.
      can you make sword in box light sword so sword come out when opened? then if sword is back after sword, use light saber on box, and saber will boxed after sword is out.

      This is a good idea! I would try this out if you have a gaming computer as your specs are not the reason.

      I just love the uniform idea!! Very cool and nice job.

      I agree with your list of annoyances!! I do not think I have ever accomplished a full family meal in all my years of simming.
      Here are a few of my own annoyances.

      The junk yard furniture finds. You can restore it for the same price as buying the item new? How does that make sense. I had this thought to make a family that restored their furniture etc but it was pointless with the pricing.

      Pets- Well ok I don't mind pets but I hate when I log out of a family , play another and then return to find they now have 6 horses.

      I hate how everyone is now a celebrity. Each time I try to introduce my sims I have to now "impress" the other one.. How is my fisherman so high up in the celebrity list?

      Papparazzi.. Or Stalkers as I think of them.

      That is a great idea! I would love EA to add uniforms to the game. I miss th uniforms which they used to wear for private school in TS2.

      I also get annoyed when your sim's friends ring at like 11pm, but when you go and do it they moan at you! I call it justice :twisted:

      Happens to me too (the eating slow thing) and they also take a while to actually get in the work car which makes me pretty angry sometimes.
