Yes, you do. There are also workarounds for that so that is not an excuse not to update.

Yes it is... are you stupid? the last patch has too many drawbacks and no benefits. the only thing has done is make everyone work for the game to play almost ok. Or as you're fucked while patching your game, fuck all of you too? well fuck you ... Kisses honey LU2

Oh do shut up.  Awesomemod progresses WITH the game.  End of discussion.  You do not want to update your game?  Fine.  Quit your bitching, don't ask your stupid questions, and get the fuck out.  You are done here, having stalled the progression of your game and worn out your welcome.  I see no reason why you should stay.

[J. M. Pescado]

You understand from a development standpoint that we simply cannot remain in the past forever, or AwesomeMod will not be able to stay with the current expansion pack. Similarly, we can't go back, either, because that is contrary to the teaching of the Cortez School, which makes it impossible to do so. Since all of the obstacles the patch has produced has been conquered, we move forward.

[Mayinca]

I understand that, I don't ask you to stay in the past . My first question was if the AM was compatible with the 1.7 patch. If don't, ok for me. If you respond like adult  I behave like one , but the  politics  of this forum is to insult everyone who make a question and tell "get out of here"... I just follow the politics. But thanks again, now I know the AM  is NOT COMPATIBLE, is all I needed to know

If Universal Bladder Decay on, Shower In A Can may restore bladder. No, you don't want to know the details.

Is this an unintended side-effect of Universal Bladder Decay with that item, or intentional hack to the item?

I want to learn how to hack items and planned to add a "use toilet" option to the expensive tent as my first project. This makes that unnecessarily difficult and expensive, but I'm not complaining about it. I just want to know if I should examine what you may have done to the Shower In A Can or what.

Insane Fix to make Riverview work
Somehow, it made it over to the second page and his drunken drivel might make it a little less search-friendly.

Thank you.

I need one more small favor, since I tried reinstalling Riverview it is now gone from my installedworlds folder, due to EAxsis killing the launcher I can't recreate it by installing it. I need the riverview.world file please.

There is a torrent linked to in Pudding Factory that includes it. Or, you know, you could use the link Witch just ninja'd me with.

Ok, seriously. Look at the Awesomemod download thread. Right above the links, it says "1.8/2.3 VERSION:". There is no link for 1.7. There is no mention of 1.7. That means that for Awesomemod, you need 1.8/2.3. It's not that hard to figure out. Pescado even bolded it.

Mayinca is probably one of those people who doesn't think the rules apply to them. Or, in this case, the limitations.

[Keyan]

Thanks to the both of you. It works now and I can rebuild from EAxis' patch.

[Mayinca]

For a simple question a simple answer.. Is Compatible?  Yes ok, no ok too. If the questions is stupid, then don't answer, but if you feel the need to respond and be rude, then you must accept that the other person responds the same way. end of discussion because i'm bored of you...

"I Wanna Be The Guy": Supreme Commander Kung Fu will now automatically summon tournament opponents and complete the skill challenges.

I could have sworn that said "I Wanna Be A Guy" when I first glanced at it. That abortion@hospital mod should totally add a gender reassignment surgery feature.

I've installed the latest EA patch 1.8/2.3 and then added latest AM - since doing this my Sims don't seem to be able use their computers. If in their inventory,  they put the laptop down on a table and then sit down on the opposite side of the table. If a desktop, they move around the room sitting in various chairs until the action drops from their queue. They can only use a computer if I tell them to sit in the chair in front of it and then tell them to use the computer. The problem showed up after I updated to the 1.8/2.3 only version of awesome mod. Any suggestions as to what the problem might be? [I don't currently have any computer mods, but did have NRaas Computer V22 for awhile.]

[J. M. Pescado]

I was able to use the computer just fine in the very latest versions. I will review the situation again, but it was working, at least for desktops, at last check.

Just got back to playing. I found that if I deleted and replaced all the computers they began working again. Not sure what the problem was, but... at least it's gone.

I just moved my family to a new house using the telephone. It's been two Sim days, everyone is in their new home but I still can't use buy/build mode. It gives the error that Build/buy can not be used because the move is still in progress. I tried using "fixall" but it's still like this. What else could I try to do?

[Jackathyn]

Have you tried evicting them and moving them back in in Edit Town mode? Maybe that could reset the residency status?

Has anyone else noticed in their games that the premade houses have white 'THIS SHOULD NOT APPEAR IN GAME' blocks at the bases of the stairs? They can't be deleted. What are these? Are they only visible because of an enabled debug option?

Try deleting and replacing the stairs. If I recall correctly, that's what it was attached to in my game when that happened.

After giving up on the Sims 3 the past couple of months, I've decided to start up the game again. After patching the base game to 1.8, I got a copy of WA, installed it, and patched it to 2.3. After all this was done I started up the game and everything worked fine. However it seems that every time I placed Awesomemod into the packages folder the game would be stuck on the loading screen. After I tried it a couple more times it seems that I can not have CC installed at all. If the packages folder is empty the game can start up, but if it contains CC the game is stuck on the loading screen.

I've read through a couple of threads about 2.3 and CC, but I'm not sure if it is because of the patch or my own stupidity that I'm having these problems.

Sounds like framework fail.  You will need to read the instructional thread in this section on "How To Install The Framework & AwesomeMod".  It's stickied and right near the thread for the mod itself.

No, you can't edit town during a move either. I will just go back to an older save. Hopefully, it won't happen again.

I have used the awesome mod before, but that was back when the game was still version 1.2. So I guess there has probably been a couple of updates for the framework?

EDIT: Sorry, I just remembered that I have updated the framework. It was installed yesterday and should be working fine. None the less I will check your thread and make sure I'm doing the right thing.

If you had bothered to read the thread coconnor told you to, you'd notice that the fact that you have WA installed requires a new framework setup. Now go read it and stop acting like you're smarter.

It seems I was too slow to edit my post, and you missed it, but I had no intention to sound like a smartass. I've read the thread a second time Coconnor, and I noticed I followed one of your steps incorrectly. The problem is solved thank you.

The Awesome Mod is suppose to be compatible with Sims World Adventures correct? I've got both the monkey installer and framework installed do i need to remove the monkey installer?
