ORLY? It's always said ORLY? Funny I never noticed before. OK, I guess I will cease to wonder about the trait acquisition. She is an elder so I assumed she had simply lost her marbles, til I interfered.

Anyone else notice that when you use falconpunch the pop-up says "Falcon! Paunch!"
The desired action works just fine, and I find the idea of a paunchy bird amusing, but when there aren't any other real issues that need to be addressed you might want to fix it.

Pescado,
Just wanted to give a very big thanks for implementing the getcertificate command.
I've been noticing that after some time, the game breaks ownership links for certain items. Like fishes (who caught the certain fish and fish weight, fish becomes "store bought"), it also has been happening to paintings (paintings become riddler tiles) and certificates. So far with books it has not yet occurred, perhaps the AM functionality for purchasing player written books at the bookstore keeps the link in check.
The certificates link gets broken that it does not have the "view" pie menu and becomes a mere functionless decorative.
For fishes it's easy to catch new ones and paintings is also replaceable (unless the painting is based on a happenstance event or a portrait and the subject sim is not anymore available to pose.)
So thanks once more for the AM. Really, a very unique, wonderful asset to TS3.

AwesomeMod does not control LTW or changing them. You can change your LTW if you haven't filled it. Once a sim has fulfilled their LTW, the perk for changing the LTW is no longer available to purchase, and so you can't change it anymore. This is a normal game behavior (and why would you WANT to change it, if you did it already?). As far as cost-per-yield goes, LTWs tend to be a relatively poor payoff, anyway, and have no real lasting effects, unlike their TS2 equivalents.

ah but thats the whole point i have NOT completed it not even close on every occasion that i have tried to change it is not one thats been completed, trying to change that was complete as you said would be silly. but on several sims that ive married into my main group of sims have lifetime wishes that dont suit them and each time i tried to change them the pop up comes up and it acts like it lets me choose a new one but wheni click on the one i want then click ok nothing is changed
Eta: i just removed awesome mod and choose one of my sims that had enough points and without it i was able to change their lifetime wish, i tried it again with awesome mod and now it works for all but one sims i tried and dont know whats up, im not 100% sure but i think i may have edited her with a cas cheat so that would explain her but i tested with other sims that i tried and failed before and now they work, well some are better than none atleast.

AwesomeMod does not control the ability to change an LTW, that is a feature of the default game: You cannot buy the perk to change your LTW if you have already beaten the LTW and it is plated over in the UI.

I've just started using supreme commander(a little late on the game, I know, but I was scared off by all the tales of game borking I'd heard), and I'm having some trouble. I'm currently playing the apocalypse challenge(using adapted ts3 rules, not pinstar's), and I wanted to have a sim skill up gardening without my having to babysit her all day. This is what I got the impression supreme commander is for. However, at this point in the challenge, I haven't unlocked the ability to use the shower yet, so all my sims are stinky. I think this might be why supreme commander comes up with an icon for her to "use bathroom", even though her bladder motive is completely green. Is that what's happening, and if so, is there a way to use supreme commander with this challenge? Or is it meant for more optimal play, and will I just have to wait?
If it's meant for more optimal play, I do have a slight grievance with it, because it sent her to the swim center(which has cheap showers), rather than the athletic center(which has expensive showers). That is not awesome, at ALL.

It was. But, the cheap showers have a random chance of giving a negative moodlet, whereas the expensive ones have a random chance of giving a positive moodlet. I would have thought that an extra 5-10 minutes in the car would have been worth it for a +10 rather than a -10 mood.(I just pulled that number out of my ass, I have no idea what the boost is for those moodlets)

Why don't you replace the cheap showers in the swim center with the expensive ones?

As far as I understand, Awesomemod optimizes sim/object interactions so that the sims go to the nearest object that will fulfill the need. Whether the nearest shower is the cheap one or the expensive one won't make any difference, the sim won't take that into account at all - and besides, the moodlet is so minor, I would think that the time saved by this fix more than makes up for it in the long run.

I'm playing against a friend, so it wouldn't be fair to modify my neighborhood. Though if I wasn't attempting a challenge, and was just playing, yes that would be something I'd do(and have done in the past).

Supreme Commander does not understand your arbitrary rules and restrictions, and there is no realistic way to make it do so since you people seem to constantly invent new ones, so no, Supreme Commander is not compatible with arbitrary rules that you impose on yourself, it only knows what is actually in the game.

It does. AwesomeMod prefers to avoid harmful actions.

Has the "set fit/fat ness" command been dropped from AM? I was going to use it today and it no longer appears in the drop down list. I play with the config set to enable all debug commands but leave debugging interations and testing cheats disabled. I set the config in game to enable both debugging interactions and testing cheats in case I had just forgotten either, or both, of those should be enabled as well but stil it was not listed and an attempt to try it anyway just gave an unknown command response.
I have the 11/02/09 AM version and the last time I had used the command was a couple of versions ago. It is still listed in the RTFM but have to consider the possibility it was just an oversight not to remove it.

Hmmm, bizarre. Tried again tonight and the "set fit/fat ness" command is still not there. Also noticed that "dropoldloves" is also MIA. Thanks for letting me know it is still in game for someone else. I'll futz around and put in a fresh AM version and config to see if anything changes.

If that's your only problem there is a solution.
Background:
I had the same problem with stuttering sound.
At the beginning it was only me in the whole wide word with that problem. More and more people reported the same problem at thesims3.com but we are still very few. There was three echoes every 6:th second and by coincident I checked my sound drivers and I had three drivers. I removed one and I got two echoes and heureca!! I found it.
It seems that after the patch EA have opened sound channels to all available sound drivers or something.
There is another EA game called Dead Space that have exactly the same
problem and the solution is the same as we have found out.
http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/32762.page
On thesims3.com olivermypup describes what to do in proper english. The "Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device" we finally identified as the sound device for the internal dial up modem of type "Windows 56 kb software modem". If you really use dial up modem today I don't know what to do:
olivermypup wrote:
"I had gone in to Device manager and turned off all audio device but the one for my speakers and it didn't work.. However I either missed one or it wasn't in the list before because I just tried it again, and there was a device listed that I don't remember being there. It's strange. I don't know how i could've missed it. Anyways I disabled it and sure enough the skipping has stopped. I am beside myself with joy! Apparently that is the issue. A thousand thank you's to Morphar!
Just to note, I figured out the device causing the issue on my system was "Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device" "
Some SimGuru have made a case at EA of this but no fix yet.

Thanks Morphar...I'll make another attempt in a couple days and post my results.
Update 11/23:
I updated to 1.6.6, but still the problem persists.
I read the info on Morphar's link and the consensus is that the sound 2 tab in Direct X Diagnostics is the root of the problem...unfortunately I can't see any way to remove it as specified as there is no indication of the culprit 56k modem in my device manager or control panel. Changing the hardware acceleration didn't help either.
I did find an odd Multimedia audio controller in 'Other devices' in the device manager, but disabling it had no effect.
Until there is a fix by EA or a more comprehensive understanding of the issues, it's 1.2.7 for me...
