Is your mod the problem or is it my game?

[Getafe]

Hey yall

I am wondering if I can have some help please with your MOD?
I have your awesomemod installed on my computer/game and I am wondering why it don't do what it used to do
I wanted the awesomemod only for the fact it stops "Story Progression"
Well it used to anyway...
Any reason why it don't stop story progression anymore?
I mean I have it turned off in options... your Mod is in the game and all up to date... Ive used the Indie mod found on modthesims.info
Even tried that "-disablestoryprogression" but none of them work
My sims still keep getting promoted and earning money while I am away from that family... no matter what I do
I don't want that
Is there anything I am not doing?
Is there anything I am going wrong?
Is there anything someone can do to help me resolve this problem?

Thank you for your time reading this message
I hope you can reply and help (=

Is promotion/earning money the only thing that's still going on?  I'm not exactly sure, but I think this is normal; sims will get promoted if they're needed as a boss/coworker.  If story progression was still running as it's intended, there would be a lot more going happening. 

You know, on second thought, you might not even need awesomemod if you're only using it for this reason.  The most recent EA patch should have fixed this problem.

Yeh only money and promotions...
everything else is fine

But even without the mod its still happening
Can you tell me whats the latest patch called?
Cus I just don't understand why sims story progression is doing this

Thanks for your help though (=

If you're able to use awesomemod, you probably already have the latest patch.  What you're seeing is intended, even with story progression off.  Story progression usually makes changes such as move ins, outs, births, large things - and the minor things as well.  If you're not seeing any of this, then that's proof that it's working.

What you want to disable is "AllowInactivePerfGain" - which allows job performance to go up while not being played.

It's what you get for hanging out at a subpar modding website run by 12s. Read the FAQ. Stop hanging out at MTS3. Learn to read. Oh, and stop being a 12.

If you turn off story progression in the game options, it will disable ALL story progression, including AM.

In the config file, try the following, enable the "Nofreejobskills", disable the "Allowinactiveperfgain", and disable the "Invertperfgainruleforsacred".

There are certain things that will be very hard to change, or stop, because of the nature of TS3.  

If you are only using AM to turn off story mode, that's a rather strange reason when all you have to do is turn off story mode in the game options panel.  If you disable story mode in AM, the game will use the in-game EAxis story mode, unless it is disabled.

This has been previously covered in other threads.

Also note that TS3 is not and never wil be TS2. Time passes for the entire neighborhood. If your sims DIDN'T go to work, by the time you got back to them, they'd be fired. So they'll still earn money.

I do wonder why people who want TS2 don't just keep playing TS2, rather than trying to make TS3 into some version of TS2.
