Since playing Seasons, I've had several opportunities to go to crazy parties at the bluffs, the chalet and the ruins. The big problem is the DJ booth doesn't work in the rain. It also doesn't work when it's cloudy. And it's almost always cloudy or rainy. I finally got invited during a clear day and the DJ booth still isn't working. The crazy parties are a big part of game play. I can understand that electronics don't work in the rain but shouldn't EA provide some alternative for DJ booths to work in the rain? How about a tent covering or a pergola that would function as covering for the DJ booth to work?
Has anyone found a work around for music at the outdoor dance parties?

Having 10000+ gaming hours into TS4, my game is one continual dating fiesta. It's all that ever seems to get accomplished in my game. My play style is family oriented and I've tried everything i could think of to make the game just that. But no matter what i do, i can't get my sims interested in a real family life. I would go on about it but not in this thread. So the reason i brought this up even is because my game revolves around dating, i use the crazy parties constantly. So, I do feel the loss of them working correctly.
If you don't use crazy parties, what do you do in your game. To me there isn't much else but to take advantage of parties.
I have this crazy old looking warehouse (downloaded from the gallery) that is an underground nightclub. My sims hook up there, dance in a huge cage that surrounds the DJ booth and dance floors (rave like), drink at the bar, I have a (I think I am allowed to say) drug related mod which makes it a bit more rave like. Yeah some of my Sims are real party sims and get into a lot of trouble LOL. There are always consequences.
I wish I could make a lot teen only so my teens can get into a bit more trouble.
To be honest, I find the crazy parties a bit unrealistic, and they don't fit in with my play style (which is also family oriented). I also don't attend them because (most of the time) either the sim who is inviting or my sim is not someone who I think would attend one of those parties. Also, I don't really tend to get bored of family play easily; most of my sims just stay home and do house chores, lol. That's just me though
I do have Jungle Adventure. But how would you set that up over the DJ booth at the bluffs, ruins and chalet? Is it portable?
