You're welcome! I just wanted to make sure you've downloaded the "_UPDATED" version of the grilled cheese mod, because that one works properly and the original didn't assign grilled cheese when it was supposed to.

This mod also conflicts with the "Teen To Young Adult No College" mod from the Mega College Pack. I suspected it would be the case, but I wasn't sure, so I still tried it out, and yeah, it made the other mod not work.

However, your mod did work beautifully. I really love it, and I wish I could make both mods work at the same time, but either way! I'll sure be using it when I have a neighborhood where I don't use the college at home mods. Thank you!

Sorry for the mix up on the one I put out originally and thank you for inspiring me to make the grilled cheese version, the more I think about it the more I like the random silliness it adds to the game


Thanks for fixing the issue. I noticed the problem with the blank aspiration, and I’m glad you were able to sort it out. I’ll download the updated version and try again. It’s great to have the Grilled Cheese aspiration back, thanks for adding that fun, random touch to the game.

I'm a Sims 2 addict. I can spend hours playing the game and I'm always finding new things to do.

Oh, I can't wait to see what this will do to my BACC hood (once they start having babies, anyway). Thanks for this!

It wasn't clear when I posted, but I had assumed that your mod took care of the issue with townie teens rolling the grow up want when they went to uni. Happy to be corrected and for the updated version to do what I originally thought your mod did. Thanks for the mod & subsequent updates

Hi there - first off, love this mod, so useful! I am wondering if it's possible to create a version (or standalone) mod that assigns the secondary aspiration as well (preferably without grilled cheese option lol)

I might have identified a slight issue...my kittens will not age up and I ran What Caused This with the error log that boolprop was showing and it points to this mod which is sad because I love it. I'm about to go back into the game and see if removing it resolves the issue. Will update when I can.

Hmm, do you have the freetime addon for my mod? I just noticed that the age transition for pets is called in it, but not in the other files. I didn't realize that pets had their age transition started by the same BHAV that humans age transition with. I assumed it was handled entirely by a different one. I made the original mod with the nightlife version of the BHAV, as that's the highest EP I usually play with, which is why I needed the freetime addon in the first place. Looks like I overlooked another aspect of it...

Edit: Just did some testing with pets with freetime, and pets without freetime just to be sure it didn't throw errors, and have found that downloading the freetime addon does indeed fix the pets problem as well!

Thank you for your feedback! I want my mods to be as good as they can be so I seriously appreciate it!

Oh, amazing! Came back to say that removing the mod did resolve the issue so I need the mod and the free time addon? That's great because I really didn't want to be without it!

Yes you need both for pets to still age, that is correct. I apologize for the confusion!

I love this mod! Thank you

I have two questions, it shows as a conflict with Pick'N'Mix's Age Transition Messages. Is it safe to use your mod loading first than theirs?

Also, your Pets and FT add-on conflicts with the main mod (I'm using the Grilled Cheese option). Is it ok if the add-on loads last?

Thank you so much!
