So I'm asking a stupid question so read this if you like getting creative in the Sims.

I have a couple who is upgrading from a small apartment to a big house. I can't figure out what type of house to make/download. Can you help me?

The guy is a tech bro, your typical navy blue polo shirt wearing programmer. He just got a big bonus and reached the top of his company and makes 16500 a week, so he's making bank and is a fortune sim. The girl is an assistant/supervisor for a fashion designer, makes around 550 simoleons a day and is a popularity sim. Her style is pretty basic but I'm planning to upgrade her style to a more high end minimalist aesthetic (when I free CC space) since they're in the upper middle class now. I'm also planning to move them in after marriage into the house and probably have one or two kids.

Based on their description, what kind of house you imagine them living in? Is it a glass ultra modern mansion, a brownstone house, something more vintage or something more modern, high tech or artsy? Should the house be on a beach lot, on a regular lot, in the center or somewhere quieter? Their net worth is 100k, so the budget for the house can be around 80k, which I know is a lot but consider how much money is the guy making and I imagine that he would want to show his wealth off considering his aspiration.

Thank you, she's actually a servo in sim skin, she's called Moana Amore.

@moonlight__ Definitely a modern house, lots of huge windows overlooking a sea or city view, and expensive wall hangings and sculptures. Very minimalist!

Thanks, my ex is a tech bro (no, the sim is not based on him ) and those guys are obsessed with grey minimalism, stone, concrete and Alexa. The girl is Italian looking with an Italian name so I prepared a medium to smaller Mediterranean home for them but circumstances have changed. If I find a good enough modern home and windows and doors for it I'll make sure it has a lot of wood and a lot of plants to look like she decorated it. https://www.tumblr.com/heynathan22 looks great for exterior inspo while Candy Darlings has gorgeous mid century modern interior.

Does Fire Safety actually do anything in an unmodded game other than fulfull the want to learn it? Midge has a mod that lets them attempt to extinguish a fire.

They're less likely to start fires and won't panic in harm's way as much.

Why would a hack in
Code:
Downloads\zz.Custom LTWs\
load before another hack in
Code:
Downloads\zb.hacks\Careers\
?

Because zb comes before zz in alphabetical order.

I said that zz loaded first.

Oh, so you did, sorry! It helps to read things.

Hmm...Could it be because of the nesting structure? Since the one that loaded second has three layers and the one that loads first is two layers? are these the actual names of the files or do the slashes indicate subfolders?

Subfolders, yes - both forward and backslashes are an illegal character.

What makes you think the file in the zz folder is loading first? Did a tool actually tell you that was the case? Or is something just not working?

HCDU Plus and an error that resolved when I fixed the load order.

Specifically, I had lamare_LTW_JobHopper & zzPatch_WH_PayBook_C_JobHopperLTW in the zz folder, and WH_PayBook_C in zb. Despite that, I got an error that when run through WhatCausedThis indicated the compatibility patch wasn't working.

When I ran HCDU Plus with the scan folder set to \zb.hacks\Careers\, it showed this:



When I tossed everything in the same folder named to load in the right order, the error didn't reoccur.

On the Sim Crafters Discord, @gummilutt said the confusing load order is due to folder depth.
