I've been using autosoc without problems w/ NL. It doesn't use the new interactions, but it still seems to work as well as before.
Still works great.... I kind of like the part where it doesn't use the new interactions. That puts some of thinking back into making friends (or more) if you want go faster.
I find that if my Sim has bolts with someone, a combination of "ask" options will build much faster than autosoc, even though the options do risk rejection. (Some people will blab how much money they have without blinking and some people look as if you tried to kill their first born.)
It's nice to have choices when they are interesting and not have to mouse click like a fool when it's boring.
