  • K I did exactly what that site said. My foldier is now Documents/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages I have the two package files in the package folder and I have my resource.cfg file in the mods folder. My resource.cfg says: Priority 500 PackedFile DCCache/*.dbc PackedFile Packages/*.package PackedFile Packages/*/*.package…
  • I didn't have a DCCahe file in my mods folder, but I had one in the folder above it, in documents/the sims 3. What files am I supposed to have in the DCCache file? Right now I have dcdb0.ebc and missingdeps.idx Also, for Nrass, do you need any files besides Nrass_storyprogression.package and…
  • I think the problem might be that I have an out of date resource.cfg file? Can anyone link me to the latest one please?
  • Turns out the monkey thing was a different installer type thing I had which I just uninstalled. Still unable to get the nrass mod to register with the game. I've tried about 20 combinations of having it in different files, having no other mods, etc, and it still isn't working. I have absolutely no clue why it decided to…
  • I know, I just call it monkey because it makes all of the icons for my mod files monkies.
  • Ok I tried the new monkey installer and I'm still having problems. The mod isnt registering at all in the game now. I figured out that the text problem was because I didn't have the text file in the mod packages. Now I need to figure out how to get the mod working in the first place again.
  • http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=344611 That is where i downloaded it from. I can't find a newer version anywhere, could you link me to it?
  • I have that monkey framework thing, I think that id delphys. When I double click the file it says could not find a valid directory. I think its looking for one in the sims 3 file, but I heard i need to have it in the ambitions file. Also my other mods are working fine so not sure what the problem is.
  • Odd. I could have sworn I saw him say that the patch fixed story progression in that exact thread. Good thing I was wrong though :P Does anyone know exactly how to get mods installed though? I've read instructions for them and I have several working, but I can't get NRass working. I have my mods folder at: Program…
  • Yeah, I'm probably going to have to do that. I was actually going to install one when I reinstalled the sims 3, but in the creator of Nrass thread he said that the new patch fixed story progression so he wasnt updating the mod... I guess we're playing 2 different games or something because mine is far from fixed.
  • Alright so I moved my family into sunset valley, I added about 4 custom families made up of premade sims to the town. I added about 20 of them in total. Verdict: Story progression.... is definitely not fixed... Honestly this is no better than when I played it back in 09 when it first came out, and it really kills the game…
  • Thanks. I'm going to try going back to sunset valley and seeing how that works out.
  • I know, but that kind of ruins the immersion for me. I like to feel like the town is a living, breathing, and somewhat realistic town. I feel like that is the whole point of story progression. If you're having to make sims or manually add sims to your town to give it a population and provide sims for your sims to marry,…
  • Ok I just checked out the town. About 60% of the houses, as in lots with houses on them, not empty lots, have nobody living in them. Many of the houses that are occupied have only 1 or 2 living in them. There are literally about 2-3 families in the town that have 4 or 5 people. Basically its pretty deserted... I don't know…
  • Oh, didnt realize you could check out the households in edit. Thanks I'll give that a try and report back.
  • I like normal because as others have said, caring for babies for long periods of time or toddlers would be unbearable for me. I think it might be really cool to play a realistic time period so your sims lived a normal life span although in sim days. It would probably be something like 30,000 days (dont quote me). It would…
  • Thanks for your input, and thanks for being honest! I forget to mention one other thing that is important to me, that being the issue with the progression of the town outside of your active household. As I mentioned above, after 3 or 4 generations of my family the town would become predominantly elders and it would ruin…
  • I own the business tower and the restaurant. It isn't worth it. It takes like 6 weeks or so in game to be able to make back the money you spent upfront. If you want money make your sims into writers. I make over $20,000 per week from book royalties and I think it is the best way to make money. Plus it doesn't require a big…
  • I've tried journalism, business, culinary, and medical and got them all to 10. I like business a lot because my sim drives around in a limo as a power broker which makes me feel special lol. Also as a power broker you can make a ton of money by "holding meetings" and you have a very flexible schedule. Journalism was pretty…
  • My wife sim had level 10 cooking, was at level 10 in the chef career, and had the natural chef trait. she makes perfect meals 100% of the time. She also has the most expensive stove. I don't know if the fact that she is a chef for a living matters or not. I think you need 10 cooking and natural chef trait to always get it.…
  • I had 3 boys too, and they each came individually without the fertility thing. I think you can call the adoption services to take your baby so you don't end up with a ton of boys.
  • the best way to make money is to write. The medical career seems pretty tough and doesn't pay a lot. Make your sim write books in her downtime and she will get a lot of money in royalties once she gets to level 10 writing. also getting married would help you as you would have a second sim to make money with.
  • How do you guys make your houses so nice? Do you have any tips?
  • Wow some of you guys are great at decorating. I wish I was that good :(
  • You have to select an "active household" your active household is the house/family that you control. When you move a sim there is a little tick box in the moving window that says "set to active household" If you had clicked that you would then control your young adult instead of the rest of the family. I'm pretty sure…
  • has anyone figured out how to get edit in cas to work? I really need this cheat.
  • So how do you win, or what is the objective of the competition? Is it to see who can get the most net worth in 10 generations or something?
  • I never knew about the "legacy challenge" in ts2. Would anyone care to enlighten myself and everyone else who has no idea what this is?
