@Sourpussy, @gummilutt, thank you!
Have you guys tried my tutorial yet?

I have looked it over, and really appreciate how simply you broke it down. But I haven't had the time to sit down and try it out yet. I'll let you know when I've attempted my first memory.
ETA: Just checked it out again and saw you updated it. Hopefully in a few days I'll be able to give my hand at making a memory with the new Picked! template you put up.

I've been working on other projects of mine, so I haven't tried it yet. I'm waiting for the right creative mind set to strike me But the tutorial looks very easy to follow. Great with pictures along with text.

Thank you all!
I wonder how many of us are not native English speakers?
What do you think about adding more translations?
At the moment I have Polish and Russian text.
Now you can add your language to this mod!
Feel free to PM for more info or comment here.

First, thanks a bunch for this Second what about adding a nice memory about adoption for singles and various couple situations? 'Baby/Toddler/Child arrived today and now our family has grown. What an amazing day!' or something like that?

This looks like an awesome idea and mod. I'm going to download it and mess around, probably first with some nitpicky grammar ("I don't know will we ever overcome this loss..." reads wrong to me, I plan to change it to "I don't know if we will ever overcome this loss..." instead). I will have a look at the tutorial later as well so I can add in a divorce memory (I know how to fix memory targets in SimPE already).

Since I didn't see anyone answer your question about High School Graduation: yes, in the US we get high school diplomas, though we can also get transcripts (which I think is about the same as your "аттестат").

Edit: I saw you mention an intention to add University major selection memories to the main mod in the tutorial thread, and it got me thinking. Any chance you could add a work in progress list for memories you intend to add to the main mod so that end users will be less likely to end up with duplicate memories on their custom object after you do an update?

This sounds like a really great mod idea. But when I have it downloaded and try to start Sims 2 up, It crashes my game. I have tried taking out other mods i don't use anymore and it still crashes it. I'm not really sure why it's doing it. I tried separated the mod to make sure it is specifically that one and it is. I really do like the sound of this mod and I like making backstories for my custom characters. Is there anything I can do to stop this from crashing my game?

I believe this mistake was fixed in v1.1 Maybe I forgot to fix it..

Thanks! I'm thinking about using default Public School icon + tiny icon of University diploma in the right corner.

Well, it's a nice idea. I'm on vacation now, but when I'm back I'll add it.
Some nice ideas here.
Keep in touch!

Hi @rynnscarlet, I'll try to help you
I'm sorry to hear that, but you're the first one of 950 people who encounters such a problem.
Are you sure the problem's in the mod?
Do you get any error messages?
Have you tried loading another neighborhood?
When exactly does your game crash?
Have you tried launching the game without Downloads folder?
Is this mod the only one in your DLs?

@Lavelia, sorry, I've missed your post.
Don't you want to try and make it yourself?
Because I'm not going to update very soon and there's a step-by-step tutorial available

I was going off the images posted, as I haven't been able to get it in my game yet. I didn't see grammar changes listed in the changelog/description. If you did fix it already, then that's less work for me.

I see you have Bon Voyage, then you must have these memories, they are spawned once you're back from the vacation
I'm working on a project now, it will help people to spawn memories that are already in game but rare (such as Got Tray Dropped on Me).
You may be interested in such a thing, especially if you don't use programs such as SimPE.

I am sure. I've tested to make sure that it was this mod alone. I deleted all my other mods. The game crashes before it even loads the main menu, and it only does this when I have this mod in the downloads folder. I'm not sure what is causing it. Is it possible that maybe it's not compatible with Windows 8? I'm not sure.

Well, I have no idea.. Have you tried both 1.0 and 1.1 versions (separately)?
Have you tried loading only OBJ_ file or only MEM_ files? It is strange indeed.

This mod has custom text so it will appear in English for you. However, if you want to help improving this mod, I could send you the text in English and you could send me back your Portuguese translation

If you'll provide me translations, yes.
I still wait for a reply from a girl who sent me the Polish text for the version 1.0, it seems like she's unavailable at the moment.
