That and the Sims Medieval can be added to the drop-down lists of the Sims 2 and Sims 3, respectively.

Is there a way to cheat and assign a secondary aspiration to newly created sims, without ctrl+clicking on their wants until there are enough aspiration points? Googling didn't find any helpful answers

Yeah, if you have SimPE. You go into their character file and check under free time where the secondary aspiration is.

Pick one. Be sure to hit 'commit' before closing the program.

That's the only other way to do it that I am aware of.

You can assign LTA superpowers with my Tombstone mod. I made it so that it can be done on visitors, which can't access the dialog. It is under the Aspiration menu, done on Me. It respects the points you have accumulated. There is another menu to set the aspiration level and points.

I think adult sims directly from CAS are assigned 5 points - at least one of those can be used to give them a secondary aspiration.

Toddlers get 0, child 2, teens 3, YA get 4, and elders 6.

I would love a re-release of Sims Medieval, my copy got corrupted years ago. Then again, seeing how badly they messed up the Legacy versions it might not be worth it even if it was re-released.

Does anyone have a copy of Realistic Ages: Harder Skill Learning by Lientebollemeis?

Sims Medieval is still available to buy. https://www.ea.com/en/games/the-sims/the-sims-medieval

And even though it doesn't say it, when I bought it the Pirates and Nobles expansion pack was included.

@lientebollemeis Could you help please?

Thank you! I didn't know it was still available. Can it be played offline or does it need to be through their app?

Here is lientebollemeis's folder:

And she can be found here too: https://www.facebook.com/Sims2Idea/

I am unsure if the Realistic Ages: Harder Skill Learning is the slowerskillgain.zip within SFS.

I have no idea, to be honest. I just saw her on FB and noticed that there was a link to her folder.

@Mickeylan - I found this? https://s2idownloads.blogspot.com/2...-of-1-hour.html

Hope it helps.

Guess I will try it.

anyone know if there is a mod that allows for scoping of a room w/o needing the 1st kiss? (or sexual orientation set)

The first kiss isn't in any way necessary to get the scoping the room option. Check out a sim - one of each if you don't want to commit the sim yet, though the one point of gender preference it gives you can easily be overwritten - and then you can scope the room. I'm not aware of anything that makes checking out unnecessary.

Through the app sadly.

Blake Yang, the business reporter of the Veronaville Courant, and just about the most obnoxious Sim I have ever met, has just told Josh Anderson that he's giving his new toy shop in Monopolis (Anderson's Toy Emporium ) a bad review. As well as most of his money, Josh has invested a lot himself in this venture. His family are committed to his business too. Can anyone suggest any advice I might give him to retrieve the situation? The prestigious and influential SimCity Chronicle carries Blake Yang's reviews too.

Dolphin's Business Adjuster can summon/invite him back to try again. https://modthesims.info/d/136990/do...-4-20-2006.html

I remember when I was a teenager my grandma had an issue with me taking a nap or laying under the blanket while wearing clothes. Grandma's hang up regarding wearing clothes under a blanket still baffles me to this day. Grandma was expecting me to take off my clothing just to lay under the blanket but I was not confident enough with my body to sleep without any clothing (I now occasionally sleep without a top on and I did try sleeping completely naked but didn't like that).

I always sleep in my clothes. I get cold during sleep without activity, and uncomfortable form touching the bed with my body. Washing clothes is easier than taking the covers off a bed and washing those. It is not even possible with a warm blanket that needs dry cleaning.

You need sexual orientation set, otherwise there is no chemistry with anyone to report on. If you want all sims to just be bi, you can do that with ACR or the Sim Blender, IIRC.

It's not that I want them to have one gender or the other, or even bi. I was hopin for somethin where they could scope a room w/o havin any contact with the person, no defined sexuality, or anything that would sway them one way towards any one that I had a hand in picking. I don't know if this is gonna do what I want, but someone pointed it out to me and it sounds like it so I'm gonna give it a try

To those of you who play somewhat rotationally, do any of you not play a heavily restricted rotational gameplay? And while I'm aware that the answer of course will be yes, I'll explain why I'm asking: I see a lot of people who play a strict chosen number of days for each family (like one day, or three, or a week) and often keep a full spreadsheet for their game in order to always be on time, in sync. Personally I am NOT one of those players - or wasn't until now, I used to think that this sort of rigidity would drive me nuts, and probably stop me from playing (big issue in my simming career history). But now as I'm really getting back into the game, I'm reconsidering. I really enjoy a rotational play in the sense of making sure that each family is played somewhat in the same time, and that children, teens and YAs somewhat grow up together, generations being kept together, so all roughly makes sense in the grand scheme of things. However, I never bothered with seasons/day of the week syncing, or with holidays being on for everyone at the same time. I also played some families a lot longer than others, becuase they were simply too exciting for me to wait a whole hood rotation. And, I prefer to track my sims record in Trello, rather than a spreadsheet.

So I do rotate my gameplay, but not as rotationally as most people here I believe. Now, back to my question: is there anything I am clearly missing by not playing this sort of strict rotational system with days being synced and such? I know that this is my game and my enjoyment only, and I should do as I please. But since so many people do it this way, I'm pretty sure there is a huge benefit that I'm just not getting at the moment. Would anyone care to spare a minute or two to shine some light on this matter?
