Child Aspiration Set: This set of 4 child aspirations will add variety to your child sims' lives. This aspiration was made with Zerbu's Mod Constructor program and I am eternally grateful to them!
The infant patch is here! The infant patch is here!
After initial testing, it looks like the patch didn't break these aspirations! Shocking, but I'm not about to complain! That said, I took the opportunity to iron out some issues and scale back some of the milestone requirements (5 pranks on the school is a tall ask for anything but long lifespan!). While I have not received any exception reports or errors, if you come across issues with the mod please let me know!
What is it?
This set contains 4 different aspirations for your child sims: Perfect Angel, Little Einstien, Delinquent, and Child Star. Each aspiration seeks to utilize interactions added by various packs to give you new goals to accomplish with your sims. Fulfilling these aspirations will provide your sim with a custom reward trait that will boost their skill and career gains, among other benefits.
Compatibility: This aspiration set requires Parenthood to function properly. Additionally, the Child Star aspiration requires Get Famous and the Little Einstien aspiration requires Get to Work. Each aspiration can be downloaded individually, but if you intend to download the merged set make sure that you have all three of those packs or the aspirations will not function properly.
These aspirations should be fully compatible with the latest patch.
An Important Note:
While I have tested these aspirations extensively it is still possible that I missed something. Please be sure to let me know if you run into any problems!
