I literally gasped. This is so freaking neat! Thank you so much for putting this together. I am fan-girling over these with another sims 2 player RIGHT NOW.

Are you planning to release some object like the date counter that shows you how many things sims have done for each LTW so far?

Do your uni career LTWs have the same GUIDs as Pescado's? I'd prefer not to uninstall his and then install a completely new set because that will probably nuke the LTWs of the sims who currently have those, but I want to know if I need to replace those lines in your WantTrees package with Pescado's GUIDs.

Have you tested all of these? I note just looking through the list that it is not in fact possible to hire the maid, the gardener and the butler all at the same time, for example.

This is so cool, and I am so glad that I was able to help in some small way with ideas -even if I didn't know. :D

THIS is the most exciting TS2 related improvement piece i've seen in years. Colossal piece of work, but goodness if working seamlessly you just poured back inspiration in that game, for everyone !

Hope the LTWs live up to your expectations in game =)

I was planning to take it easy and play at leisurely pace, not worrying about how much is left to do.

But if people find it unbearable not to know, we'll see.

Yes, my lifetime wants and memories have the same IDs. It's pretty much the same files, stripped of some extra resources, with remade icons and some text edits.

Yes, I have tested, and it is possible to hire all those NPCs at the same time. If the butler offers to let go the other staff, say no.

Thank you. There were so many interesting ideas I barely stopped at 50 LTWs

Fingers crossed! If anything doesn't work as intended, I am willing to fix it.

Interesting, the butler never asks me if I want to fire all the other staff, he just does it automatically. Maybe you have a mod that's changing that?

I don't think so, I tested in a clean folder and it was too recently to be misremembering this...

Amazing! This must’ve taken so much work but I bet it’s going to bring the game to life again for so many people, myself included

Thank you so much for sharing.

@kestrellyn, I googled this: http://cyjon.net/node/240
According to Cyjon, butlers do ask by default, but they may not ask again if you say yes. This is probably what happens in your game. I'll add this mod to the recommended list.

I'm simply amazed by the fact you pulled this together.

My head aches merely from thinking about how much effort it required. Thank you!
Some many conflicts, thought.

Very impressive work! I will download this soon - I am just occupied with building a custom hood at the moment - but the new wants are fantastic.
I really like the flower arrangements one - my poor florists may have reached her LTW already if I had a say earlier!
Looking forward to using it in my game.

I've been really looking forward to this, and I'm sure it's not going to disappoint, but just wanted to let you know that HCDU+ reports a conflict between the Supernatural Combo LTW and Midge's Supernatural Fans/Skeptics Memory Mod (https://midgethetree.tumblr.com/pos...ernatural-mods).

Does anyone know if this conflicts with LTW variety? I like having the standard LTWs tailored more to interests and personality, but of course I'd like these new ones, too.

Came to ask this as well, i'd love to have original wants have the variety while new ones have the assigned system they have. This is the mod we're talking about: Greater LTW Variety by Pescado over at MATY.

Also, i haven't had to delve into load order much, what would be a simple way to deal with creaturefixes? ~~Leaving it in main Downloads folder and having rest inside the LTW folder or whatever should already deal with it right?~~

Thank you for this mod, it looks amazing! Can't wait to install it!

Edit: On load order, i see, it's alphabetical and folders load before single files, so placing creaturefixes in the same (sub)folder as the conflicting stuff should take care of it.

Wow! Interesting. LTWs that are fun, challenging, and make more sense than the maxis ones. Will definitely be downloading this

Thanks, I'll see what can be done.

No, it doesn't. LTW variety conflicts with my LTW Chooser, but it's a different story.
