    I had to restart my Opposites Attract save (don't ask, something went wrong) and I'm just going to use the MCCC to cheat the Communications degree like Alexis had in my last save. I don't feel like doing university all over again. Takes way too long.

    I usually don't like using cheats to do stuff like degrees and promotions but sometimes gotta do what you gotta do.

    You may wish to place your family into your My Library, too. They keep their jobs and their degrees, just nothing in the personal inventory. Put those into a small room and place that room, in the library, too. Trust me, I learned the hard way. I am formally the Queen of Restarts.

    Oh wow. Thanks for the tip. Never thought to do that.

    Oh thanks @GalacticGal -- no, I don't make videos, and I don't know how to use all those crazy tricks that people use on those houses I download from the gallery sometimes and then can not figure out how to modify XD
    but happy to help with any questions (that I can help with) :)

    @mightysprite Just had a go. I think it looks really good. Now I just need to find an exterior texture that matches the second floor:

    @mightysprite Thank you! It's almost done. I found a similar texture for the exterior that came with Snowy Escape, it's called Summit Cedar Support Beam. I think i can re-touch this in S4 Studio:

    Remind me to never give my Sims the High Maintenance trait ever again. My Sim is always angry for no reason and it takes over and overrides all the other emotions. I'm not going to change her traits through because she is who she is but I'm never using this trait again.

    Yes, it does, but that's what makes the Sim High Maintenance. Oh, and never use it again. :)

    If I use the high maintenance trait I always use the wellness skill with it, seems to help calm them down but yea it is an annoying trait. I dont know if they fixed it but it always bugged me how when they got out of thier anger mood theyd still walk angry

    @Fairy_Happy Apparently your Sim has reached Nirvana?

    Tails are extensions of an animal’s spine. They do not grow out of the mid back. In case anyone is wondering why mods for werewolves/dragon people/cat people/lizard aliens and other fantasy-characters-with-tails look off.

    @cyncie I've always wondered how it would look if werewolves had tails that were an exploit of the Cats & Dogs dog tails. Those look super realistic on the dogs. Maybe it would require the werewolf sims to use the dog animations? (you couldn't sit in a chair with that tail for example)
    Now I'm wondering if a modder has done that...

    I finally finished sorting out the cc that was causing the restaurants in my game to not function. Clicking on the table to Order food wasn't found. :open_mouth: Actually, I didn't remove anything. I have another game folder and since things were working just fine in that one, I slowly introduced some of the other clothing cc into it and took Sims to a restaurant. Lo, and behold, after testing 11 items today (three mods tested the day before) my Sims were still able to Order Food. So, I got wild and crazy and decided to test my other game. My main save. It's working! Why I had to go through this Odyssey I don't know.

    Is it normal for played sims in restaurants to get served their ordered food but npc sims get nothing/ignored? I do have Carl's Dine Out mod installed. I haven't taken it out yet to test without it.

    My most recent problem was there was no option when clicking on the table to Order Food. But, it is now functioning again in my main save, so I am happily. :)

    In two of restaurants today, only my sims would get served and the other sims would get completely ignored. The waiters would go to 'check on' the other NPC eaters from time to time but no other orders would get placed. I'm going to check without Carl's Dine Out mod and if it still happens will start a thread if needed on AHQ.

    This one made me think. Although I've considered getting it I don't have Carl's Dine Out mod. When my sims eat in restaurants the other customers get served... sometimes.

    @GalacticGal @whatkatieknit I removed Carl's Dine Out mod just now and all NPC sims are getting served as usual.

    @Brd709 I may try to play without Carl's mod, but it's very nice to have when one is running their own eatery. Which is why I have it. I have aspirations of my own. LOL

    @GalacticGal Not sure what quite happened with that mod in my save. It has improved the Dine Out pack a lot and i can get customers in and out a bit faster bringing in a bit of extra income. Something in the game must have decide to break that mod.

    Cool, that's good to know but my real concern was my active Sims being able to click on the table and having the order food interaction available, which it wasn't for a time. I'll keep that in mind, though.

    Went ahead and removed Carl's mod, after all. My game was okay, ever so briefly, then went back to the where it was before. This time, I have all the other mods in my folder, but once I removed Carl's mod, clicking on the table resulted in Order Food. Yay! I tested several eateries, old and just downloaded, too, so that I didn't have time to see if NPCs had food or not. So glad I went ahead and gave it a try. Thank you!
