Thank you for your help today @igazor! Truly. I've been wanting to play again but dreading the frustration. My game is fix, the Hanks are once again in love so the world is all right now! I've had a fabulous day getting to know my Sims again!
-
Thank you all for your help. I had to take a break from TS3 because my game was broken but the amazing team here helped me fix it today. I used the friendly interactions until I got the "let's just be friends". That cleared the X for marriage. Then I did the romantic interactions and the beloved Hanks family is once again…

Ok. Resetting the entire town didn't work (but it only took 60 seconds with my monster computer). Then I did the invite over from the house lot (MC/Sim/Basic/Invite over - selected him and clicked the check box) and what do you know - he's there! He appears to still be married to the wife, has his correct job and level and…

I have no CC and I think all of my Sims I've created are lovely. I'm not quite as creative as most here but my first generation families look great to me.
-
I am sorry it has taken me to long to respond to your questions and help. I got so frustrated with this problem, I took a long break from TS3. Looking at the options for this family, "enable Story Progression" is checked as it always has been in this save. Are you saying I should ALWAYS have it unchecked, or just when…

Ok, more weirdness. When I saved and logged out of my game last weekend, I was playing a family with a mom, dad an adult son and a teen. When I just logged in, the dad is MIA. He was showing on the little picture of the family when I login but he isn't showing as being a member of the house now. He is still showing as…

@Turjan Thank you for the tips. I do have all expansions and stuff packs as well as the Stones Throw Greenhouse. My biggest garden has a two story greenhouse with two watering stations in it. I will be to so excited to get that special grass so I don't have to knock walls out anymore!
-
I forgot to mention that for my main gardening Sim, since their garden is so big and the produce keeps getting better and better, I'm super OCD about what they use for cooking. So I regularly go through the fridge and keep only 10 of each item, selling the rest right there in the little "sell" box. This how my Sim reaches…
-
Very interesting subject and I love looking at all the amazing gardens. In my current save, I'm rotating 6 families and I make sure no two Sims have the same LTW. One of the easiest is to have a perfect garden so at least one of my first gen families has a stay-at-home mom with a self employed gardening career and easily…

I actually was trying to create a temporary household to ship them off to Uni together. NRaas is pretty complex and my aging brain doesn't do well with complex. I finally figured out how to do MC Add Sim and moved all my kids to an empty lot. I then chose to send them all to university and was going through choosing their…
-
More dumb questions time. I have finally rotated through all of my families and each one has a brand new YA ready for college. So I went to the first one, checked the family in with NRaas to stop all progression, and then tried to have the YA moved to an empty lot that has just a mailbox and trash can on it. The problem…
-
Ah. I think you pegged it @igazor. My evil Sim was also a diva. Her husband had no sense of humor, was neurotic and dramatic. So basically their marriage didn't really stand a chance if left to their own devices. I will continue to randomize my Sims but will keep an eye on incompatible traits if I want happy families. I've…
-
That's one reason I chose to play this way this time @thebriamon. I am seeing behaviors and interactions that I've never seen before and that's very fun. While it was certainly annoying and frustrating to have an evil Sim, at least I got to see some of the behaviors. I have done 100% randomizing and I'm on the second…
-
I solved my "problem" by the family moving out and leaving the mom behind. It was just too frustrating trying to keep the relationship together. But it let me do something I've never done with my Sims before - break up the family. Noone seems to be missing her. And I don't know where she went. Maybe she stayed at the big…
-
I had a kitty that had wondered off while I was busy getting my family settled in a new house. I noticed that the kitty wasn't at home so I clicked to send them home. I noticed that it said the kitty was on the way home but sitting on a boat. What? So I clicked to see what was happening and apparently my kitty was way far…
-
I'm going to try a couple of things but how do you divorce your Sims? I see an option on the cell phone to send a "break up" text to a spouse. Is that how?
-
Thank you @Turjan. My saves that I would want to use don't go back to before he invited her to visit. So I guess I need to let that visit happen and basically ignore it since she never shows up at the house and likely let that relationship go by the wayside. I will watch to see if it breaks my game. Hope not as I don't…

My two Sim teens went on a field trip to the graveyard for a school activity. When the fieldtrip was over, they each got a message that they got a souvenir from their field trip. They each got a poster but they also each brought home something extra. The sister got a Mysterious Mr. Gnome and her brother got a genie lamp! I…
-
Rita has the wedding ring moodlet with an red X on it and hovering over it says "ex-husband". Same with Tom. There are no options to be boy/girlfriend or go steady. I went into their memories and deleted references to the cheating and the divorce. Both relationship bars for each of them is all the way green. I have closed…
-
Their relationship is completely maxed out green, Tom sent enough insulting texts to his romantic interest to kill the relationship, and he is being extremely irresistible yet no options for engagement or marriage with Rita. I guess I'll let them sleep on it a night and see if anything changes. I hate to use "cheats" to…

I used all the settings suggested here: https://nraas.net/community/Story-Progression-Rotational-Caste-Settings
-
That's exactly how I have it set. And when I went into the family to play it, they were set to Caste:manual value 1
-
ah I see. I don't have the travelers mod but in this case, most of my students don't know one another, some not at all. I see what you are saying about not moving them to the pre-staging house until I'm ready to move them to University. So that will be my plan. Once I rotate through all my families this time, I will have…
-
The setting for adoption is False so they adopted the cats anyway. As for the teen, I wasn't so much concerned with new Sailor trait (never have seen that one before). I was more curious as to why the parents both had boats in their inventories. There is a river through the entire town. Since "go boating" is an option on…
-
I don't mind story progression as I DO want my currently played family to progress. And thanks to a ton of help and finally letting myself use NRaas, I can play rotationally like TS2 and therefore enjoy TS3 like I never have. But I sure get some crazy surprises sometimes! Like these boats. When I click on them, there is an…

If you turn your sound up loud when a student is graduating from University, you can hear the names being announced as the students are apparently walking across the stage. The names are ALMOST real names with with a Sim Twist. Like "Fon Tatherly", Friss Tones, Tecter Haston". Just a letter or two off from a real name. Too…
-
Thank you Turjan. I also found this on the Fandom wiki: During your Sim's university stay, time will stop in the main neighborhood. Shew. I won't worry now and just use my "test" Sim to see how this all works. I had it down like clockwork in TS2. This is my first go round with TS3. I didn't like playing University in TS2…
-
It's just weird that when I load up TS3, and select that save and family to play, it goes to my University Sim. I checked the EA options for story progression and it's ON. As for setting up SP per household, the amazing magical @igazor helped me get that setup which is how I'm playing my six families rotationally like I…
-
Now if my Sim can just figure out who wrongly accused her of peeing on herself in public...
-
Pretty much what everyone above says. It can be as simple or as complicated as you want. You can make all kinds of challenges for yourself. After years of playing, I still see things I've never seen or knew could happen. And using NRaas to make some tweaks, I can play rotationally which is the only reason I haven't played…
Howdy, Stranger!
