    I thought for a pretty long time that my single female glitch was caused by mc command center because I couldn't imagine the game producing something like this. The only reason why I really wouldn't like to remove that mod is because of the story progression it provides.

    Though Mc command center has done some weird things to me in the past, usually reinstalling it worked. do you have the latest version?

    Personally, I can not play the game without MCC anymore. There are way too many function that mod has that the game should just have. I love that the town will marry and have kids and all that without my controlling them. I love that I can have it notify me when sims have babies and marry and age up or die. I especially love that I can control the fact I don't want the game to purge/cull any of my population as well.

    okay i have mc command centre downloaded finally! but i'm having some trouble figuring stuff out and don't want to mess up my game. Which settings should i have on so there's actual story progression? and apparently Alexandrea is pregnant with just a single female (sigh) isn't here some setting about multiple births or something?

    @EllisReads Awesome! I'd love to see it :smile:
    @Fizzstix Yeah, I'm the same. I've been playing with the command center for ages, I really don't like my sims being culled :(
    @CactiSimmer Story progression should be enabled automatically. There are settings for multiples in mc pregnancy (click on the computer, mc command center, pregnancy) but multiples should be enabled by default. Still, I'm worried that you also having the single female thing might indeed be a mc command center issue.

    I'm starting to realize why you guys like having the father around. I have Malcolm Mortimer around right now and he plays with Mason and helps with his needs a lot. I just wish he'd do the same thing for Julie. Not sure how caught up this thread is (it gets a bit confusing if you also have a tumblr) but Mason grew into a toddler, Margo is pregnant from Akira Kibo with twins (one male, one female) and still painting a lot. I finally found out that she's best at abstract paintings and now she's basically painting masterpiece after masterpiece. We also had the first fire in the house, Margo's incense burner burned the incense plus the luggage table it was on, the stereo and the planter next to it.

    Have a picture of Mason, because he's cute! And have you seen Julie yet? She's also a toddler and super cute as well! She's close to finishing two skills but at this point I'm worried that I can't ever age a toddler up before birthday because Margo never has time to learn with them.

    @TheGeekGamez I think I had an outdated version of MC command center. I reinstalled it and I feel like there are some options that I didn't notice beforehand. Maybe it's fixed now, the next pregnancy will show I guess.
    @Fizzstix It is, it burns quite easily. However, it's also an inspired moodlet for a cheap $20 and sometimes I need to stack the inspired moodlets to overpower focused or confident moodlets.

    @Erica87 Do you have the plumbob moodlet lamps? those are nice to have in a pinch as well.

    Unfortunately not. I used to have every expansion pack but I hadn't registered them on origin since at that time it wasn't mandatory and I gave them away before I had the thought to write to EA about it. This is why I use the incense burner as well as the orchids and actions like looking at art online.

    @Erica87- Haha! It’s funny you mention how fast I’m going because I feel like it’s taking ages! I do play a lot, though! I definitely feel a slow down since we got toddlers, though. I don’t mind, of course! But my matriarch aged to adult with having only 7 children, three of which were triplets. My other matriarchs were at least 5 ahead of her. I actually could have gotten more babies from my second matriarch but I was kind of ready to move on. On another note, I haven’t yet used incense in any of my houses because I’m scared of the fire, lol. I also don’t often let my kids have the chemistry table.

    @meubanks My current matriarch has had two sets of triplets, too, but not in a row! I tend to get a lot of multiples in my games, even though I rarely use the fertility trait/massage or Ley Line. The first set of triplets was a complete disaster (see my last post!) but I just had a set age up and felt like I was a lot better at managing them this time. Plus, I had teens in the house to lend a hand.

    As for cake (a few pages back) I used to have my Sims eat it, but I really noticed the weight gain when I did. My kids were growing up to be much fluffier teenagers, haha. Now, I do the whole add candles and keep it in the fridge to reuse until it spoils. My Sims hardly ever get treats now. I tend to have them make salad, eggs, garlic noodles, etc.

    Baby daddy glitch- I’ve been cancelling my matriarch from telling the BDs that she’s pregnant, and I haven’t had one show up uninvited since. Could be a coincidence, but worth a shot!

    I was on baby 51 during my last update, and she’s now up to 57 and we are finally getting some boys! Her first seven children were girls.

    52. Alexander Nakamura- Poppy
    52. Phillip Haas- Iris
    53. Rex Cowart - Reed (triplet)
    54. Rex Cowart- Wren (triplet)
    55. Rex Cowart- Coral (triplet)
    56. Carson McNamm- Cyprus
    57. Joey Sanderson- River
    58. currently pregnant but can't remember BD name at the moment

    I think I’m going to switch it up for my next matriarch (which hopefully shouldn't be TOO soon), since I have MCCC and have my matriarch have baby mamas instead of baby daddies. There’s a setting that you can use to make this possible, and I think it’ll be a fun twist. I’m also thinking my name theme for her might be minor Disney character names (like, I could use Max, the name of the dog in The Little Mermaid, but not Ariel, Sebastian or Eric, for example).

    Oh.. that's an interesting idea.. I will give that a try, next time I start up my 100 baby game.

    All other births on this save file have been single births, so I've determined that I just got a lucky roll of the dice. I get twins fairly often in my games, but triplets hardly ever, let alone twice in a row. That household has been crazy though. Mom hardly slept for the entire baby/toddler phase. lol.

    Here are some more pictures of my 100 baby/toddler challenge. I still don't have all my pictures uploaded to flickr just yet. But these are all that I do have. I will work on uploading more in the next few days. I am itching to get back to this family. I've had enough, for now, playing with the vampires. LOL

    Okay my last update was with the annoying baby daddy glitch and i've gotten past that. I added them to a group asked them to leave and haven't come back since so the death room is gone!

    Jaycee and Harley have both aged up and moved out to the city.
    tumblr_inline_okh3d6VS1n1sjq8k0_500.png
    tumblr_inline_okh3jaQgys1sjq8k0_500.png
    Jaycee is currently in a relationship with Arun their married neighbour, but it's deteriorating and I'm going to get her involved with one of her elder friends. Harley is friends with a female food stall worker, and i'm planning on getting the two of them together.

    Now that there were two empty spots in the house Alexandrea went out and bagged herself another man - Wolfgang
    tumblr_inline_okic5gcGVv1sjq8k0_500.png

    There've been numerous children aging up (and none of them had a birthday cake, Alexandrea's been too exhausted to make one and had no money anyways) so here are some CAS pics
    tumblr_inline_oko7t2eCMn1sjq8k0_500.png
    Here's Lloyd he's a genius, materialistic and wants to be fabulously wealthy.
    tumblr_inline_oko7wzJpOT1sjq8k0_500.png
    Here's Spencer who was originally identifying as a male but now identifies as a female and is in the middle of transitioning during her teenage years. She is a geek, good, and wants to have a Big Happy Family.
    tumblr_inline_oko7zr3ZYS1sjq8k0_500.png
    Here's Hailee, she's a perfectionist and hot headed and wants to find her soulmate.
    tumblr_inline_oko82yML411sjq8k0_500.png
    Finally, here's Kiara, she's an insider and a social butterfly.

    Alexandrea got together with Wolfgang Munch and had a daughter Paige who's still a baby.
    Also I've updated the house! It's a big house but I've actually downsized and it's the right size for them. It's still not finished (inside or out) but Alexandrea's tight on money so oh well.
    tumblr_inline_okktsiS57K1sjq8k0_500.png
    Here's a shot of the bottom floor - i was having issues taking regular screenshots through sims so i had to take an actual screengrab so sorry about all the stuff from build/buy mode! There's a front porch, a back porch, one bathroom open to all sims, the master bedroom with an ensuite, the nursery, the toddlers room, the open living room and kid's play area and a combined kitchen and dinning room.
    tumblr_inline_okku046O4G1sjq8k0_500.png
    And here's the top floor - there's a back porch, three bedrooms for the kids with one of them being a single child room, 2 bathrooms, a small study for Alexandrea, and an open like kids living room area.
    tumblr_inline_okku5gQ8LY1sjq8k0_500.png
    And a shot from the front - i've got the space for the front porch planned out.
    tumblr_inline_okku73bC9u1sjq8k0_500.png
    And the back of the house. The lot is cramped right now so I'm planning to move it to a larger lot (once i actually have money) so I can do landscaping, actually put the house on foundation, have a separate space for the garden and an area for the kids.

    Speaking of gardens! The romance festival finally rolled into town so I sent one of the kids out to harvest everything and i've planted all 16 dragonfruits so now i just have to wait for them to evolve before getting rid of the other plants so the garden isn't so big and takes forever.

    I get most of my CC from The Sims Resource or Mod The Sims. Here are a couple pictures of what my Eye CC folder looks like. Sorry I can't give direct links. I don't remember all of them exactly. The first picture is what CAS looks like. All of the CC eyes I have, have overwritten default eyes. Maybe with a picture of what my CC folder is, you can track down what I have? *fingers crossed*

    I have 2 neat traited sims that had issues with a dirty surroundings moodlet. My matriarch kept trying to clean a desk but it never helped. I took these 2 pictures to show there is no dirt on the desk, or any dirty dishes. At one time there was a dirty toddler potty, but when I clicked to clean it, it didn't act like it was dirty. I went into build/buy, clicked on the dirty potty, and it turned clean. Thought at that time, that was the culprit, but my 2 sims still had the dirty surroundings moodlet. Eventually, I decided to remove the offending desk and potty to see if the moodlet would go away, and sure enough it did. Very strange. I didn't know desks could get dirty in that way.

    @Fizzstix I love seeing your pictures, your toddlers are so cute! And your house is nice! I couldn't stand a multi-level house with toddlers so my house is more function over looks. I'll have to take a picture to post some time, being a 3 bedroom/2 bath (right now 2 bath, might be 3) house.

    Thank you :D I don't like a multi level house either. The basement is strictly for the matriarch to use. And since having the bassinet on the same floor as the tub causes a glitch bathing the toddlers it works out having her bedroom in the basement. I try to get her on the treadmill as much as I can, so she can get some exercise. She has the gym rat reward trait and gets some fun out of it as well. Having the bathroom close by helps out as well. She's had her 8th baby, and he aged into a toddler and I am excited because he isn't a blondie! woot woot! (Reid doesn't count, since he's a hybrid.)

    Been a while since I posted here and I believe this is my 4th attempt at completing this challenge! I started one that wasn't glitched a little while ago and got to baby 6 but then toddlers were introduced and then vampires were announced and I really wanted to redo the challenge again - so this time it was by choice to start again!

    Anyways, I decided to not do 100 babies with a vamp this time around but I did want to have the immortal matriarch so I will be doing that by earning her the potion of youth reward as many times as it takes to have 100 babies. I will also be keeping a tally of how many potions she has to use!

    To make it even more challenging (and perhaps stupidly so), I will not be aging the kids up until their natural birthdays but will be still aiming for As in school and at least 3 points in all the toddler skills. So... should be fun! :P

    Here is a picture of my new matriarch - her name is Shelby McClelland.

    UKuA33A.png?1

    I seem to have a thing for redheaded matriarchs - don't know why!

    D9Awh4L.png?1

    She currently has two girls her oldest is Sidney Landgraab (the redhead) and her youngest is Jaleesa Law. She is also in her second trimester and expecting a baby with Don Lothario! Here's hoping this one is a boy!
