The wish to paint a brilliant painting has been fulfilled in my game, but not the wish to paint X number of masterpieces.

The wish to read 30 books total is broken. I've tested it on four sims that had the Bookwork trait. Reading 20 books fulfills that wish, and reading 50 books fulfills that wish, but reading 30 books never fulfills the wish to do so. My sims will have read 30 books, and this shows in the Skills Journal, but the wish never gets fulfilled.

I've adjusted all of the 3D settings, including anisotropic filtering, on my graphics card, an ATI Radeon HD4670, to the high end of the spectrum, and my sims no longer look like TS1 sims when they are outdoors, or in their thumbnails. It has definitely made a positive difference in my game, with no lagging or crashing.

Zlot, if you go to the actual AwesomeMod thread, which is labeled as such, you will find the download link near the top of the first page. To find out when the latest update was posted, look at the timestamp at the bottom of the page. Also, Pescado sometimes makes a new post to let people know that there is a new build to be downloaded.

Edit to insert a missing "e".

The debugging commands can't do anything unless you specifically enter those commands into the console, yourself. The things you're complaining about are testing cheats, which are enabled by default in AwesomeMod. Disable them, and you'll no longer have the features that you don't want.

My reasoning is that YA is the default in CAS, and she forgot to change her sim's age.

My neat mad scientist sim can rummage through bins, but I gave him the Neat trait via AwesomeMod. He didn't have it originally. Also, being a mad scientist seems to make you able to rummage trash, regardless of traits, even though the career doesn't require it. Maybe mad scientist sims are given hidden behaviors for being "mad."

This has already been discussed numerous times in other threads. I would suggest using the Search function at the top of the main page to find the information you're looking for. That is all the help I will give you.

Is he a mooch? I've never played one, but it seems logical that mooches could steal people's garbage.

Has anyone noticed if the Changes mod conflicts with AwesomeMod? I'd like to use both, but if I have to choose one over the other, my loyalty lies with AweseomeMod.

How often are you saving? This has happened to me (the error and inability to save, not the crashing), but only after I forgot to save my game for a really, really long time. In that case, it was a memory issue, not a bug.

You're not kidding. I had my dirt-poor YA sim collect rocks for about a sim week, sell them without getting any of them cut, and was able to move her to a §60,000+ house.

If you disable Supreme Commander, can you then uninstall AwesomeMod? I'm not planning on doing so anytime soon, but it would be good to know.

If you were replying to Mootilda, why did you quote my post? You might confuse people doing things like that.

Mootilda, did you not read the first post? The OP doesn't want to use AwesomeMod, because it's her daughter's game, and she wants to keep it vanilla.

That's where I recall seeing them, too.

The sims have no turn-ons or turn-offs in TS3, so what does it matter? It's purely aesthetic, at this point.

Stupidest. Bug. Evar.

It didn't. I still wanted the produce, even if it wasn't perfect quality.

Yes, they can be sold. The easiest way is to, from inventory, drag a gem to the "sell item" (or whatever it's called) icon at left of the inventory box.

Now, THAT would be awesome.

Traviswroteit: AwesomeMod is configurable. If you want random single sims having random babies that aren't related to them, then you can do so. Just enable the parthenogenesis option when configuring AwesomeMod. I don't remember if this function is enabled or disabled by default, but, either way, it's easy enough to change.

phnxflyng: No, the AwesomeMod does not contain the latest patch. You still need it. I would recommend getting a nice wireless card for your computer, and downloading the patch. There might be a non-launcher version of the patch someplace, but I didn't need it, so I didn't pay attention. There are at least two patch-related threads right here on MATY. Perhaps you should try visiting those threads.

I suggested this workaround in another thread, though I suggested leaving the sim female until the delivery to avoid Floating Head Syndrome. I'm glad it works, so that I don't have to test it. Pregnant males squick me out. It's unnatural, I tells ya!

Edit to add more information.

It's the very first "no mosaic" hack that causes the problem. If you have the old hack that changes the shader properties, then the patch won't install. If you have the newer "no mosaic" hack, that changes the Resource.cfg file under Program Files/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3, and installs a package file under Mods/Packages, then the patch will install.

Put makeup on him?
