I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I'll ask anyway. Since 1.57 was released on 9/04 and I haven't seen any new test builds will the last AM work or should I wait for an update? I haven't updated yet just in case as I don't want to go without AM for 2-3 weeks like I did last time. Let the flaming begin.

And I can give it a third! After doing that though, my sims no longer use their preferred vehicles, but with the sound issue gone I can play the game again with at least a semblance of normalcy. Thanks all.

If you would search MOAR, you would know that there IS another solution.

Yes, this has been reported to the IP bug thread on the EA forums, by myself. The moderator is making a list of bugs and sending them to the Gurus. We'll see if this sound issue gets resolved. I hope so. I didn't mention it here because I didn't feel AM would be the cause of this.

same thing for beta.

Yeah, I won't be playing anymore either until the AM for 1.55 is released. I tried last night and the game sucks without it.

This was fixed by Pescado a bit ago. Redownload AM! If you'd keep an eye on this thread you wouldn't be posting about already fixed bugs.

Yep. PEBKAC on my part. I just installed my backed up data on my new computer. I was thinking that everything on the config page should still be as I had it. I made a few changes but didn't check that. I guess that's what I get for thinking. Sorry for wasting your time Pescado. I'm a farkin maroon.

Downloaded and am using the most recent AM now (dated Jan 5) and now I can no longer manipulate the attributes of my Sims (ie. hunger, energy, etc).

Thanks Pescado. I figured it was an EAxian problem and not an AM one although the school problem went away once I downloaded the newest AM (which I didn't know had been updated yet again; you're a busy busy bee).

No I do not. All the settings for the config file for AM are just as they have been for quite some time. If you read my post correctly you'd notice I said that children were able to go to school before the newest patch and then not able to after it. I updated AM after upgrading the game. I am now checking to see if yet another AM was uploaded that might at least fix the horse competition bug as SJActress said it had been fixed. That will still leave me without schools in my world though.

Okay, since installing the latest patch I have three problems. Two major and one minor:

Minor:
Unicorns no longer have horns and although the CAH has the option for horns it is blank. ie. I can't fix the problem via CAH.

MAJOR:
1. Horse racing crashes the game. This is a known bug on the EAxis forums.
2. Schools are no longer recognized. Worked fine before patch. Now after patch I get the "no schools in your area" message in the child's career tab. I've changed nothing except updated AM and all my other mods for 1.29 so I'm not sure what the problem here is. I even tried placing another school in the world with no luck. So my question is can AM fix this issue? If I reset my child sims will this fix the issue? No one on the EAxis forums seems to know and I'd like to at least get the school bug taken care of.

Thanks.

I tried that, but horns don't show up in CAH. The option for horn is there, but it's blank.

  Since I updated to the latest EA patch my Unicorn now looks like a normal horse. The game still considers it a Unicorn, it just doesn't look like one anymore. Anyone else had this issue and know how to resolve it?

This is the first time I've actually needed to request a feature so here goes. I noticed while using "maxmotives" that it only works for the Sims and not the pets. Would there be a way to add pets to that command or to make one just for them such as "maxmotivespets"? Thanks. And by the way, thank you Pescado for all the hard work you put into AM. Without you and Twaillan's efforts I wouldn't enjoy The Sims as much as I do.

I'm on a Mac too so that is NO excuse. I posted a few months back (with pictures) how and where to install correctly on a Mac. Search is your friend. Use it.

Search MOAR! There are a couple thread about the AM test version. No need for someone to post the link yet again... Hint, if you actually search for it, it will be within the first page of the search. 

Since you are on a Mac you should check this out. Doing a search should have turned this up: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,20008.msg568123.html#msg568123

People around here will not hold your hand. But I'll be a little helpful and tell you to look here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,17454.0.html
Next time doing a search for installing the framework would be helpful too. Search is your friend.

I use a Mac as well and it is NOT that difficult to install the framework anymore. I'm not sure what is so hard to understand. They have made it extremely easy to do so since, I think, Ambitions. Here is the proper (and easiest) way to install mods and framework for Mac:

Now use this info and don't create extra threads around here again. They don't like that kind of thing. And maybe grow a few more braincells. It's not that difficult. EA even gave instructions on how to do it for Christ's sake.

Yes, definitely an EA thing. It's all over the Sims 3 boards. Glad to know Pescado is going to attempt to fix this.

I haven't seen this posted yet so here it is: The KISS bundle (I was a little upset as I got simpoints through a contest but you can only get these things with points you actually buy yourself, but I really wanted this)

And if anyone can help me out. I'm looking for the free items that came with the German Sims magazine. All the links I've tried are either removed or 404'd. Not the lots, but everything else as I have the houses. Thanks.

There's an actual manual for AM? Where is this located at? All I've ever seen is a brief RTFM text file with the mod. And that doesn't give a lot of detail for anything in it.

I'm testing this now on the Windows side of my comp. I had to uninstall CAW because it just wouldn't run for some reason so I'm hoping reinstalling it will help. If this works I'll try on the Mac side. Thanks. I just have to find an alternate sims3pack installer for Mac.

I found the computer. I actually had to google it to find it. Twallan moves around alot apparently. But it worked like a charm once I figured out how to actually use it. To answer a few questions I saw pop up in here. Yes, one of the sims had commitment issues, but that shouldn't really matter. I had a few other sims with the same trait that got married with no problems. Whatever the problem was, it matters little now. I got the supercomputer and fixed it. Thanks for all the help and comments.
