Okay my question, I gave one of my sims the tokens ( I think I"m using that word right) that they learned how to do the bow and ti chi. I went into the sim descriptor, the details of the sim, chose vacation and put in the checks. Now in game when I go to her memories of vacation it shows that she has those abilities, but when I try to use them they aren't available. I have a sneaky suspicion that there was a heck of a lot more to it than what I did. Can someone enlighten me?
That is not how it works. The memories is not the actual skill tracker, and doing this correctly in SimPE is rather impractical, like attempting to build a car using only hand tools and scrap metal. You CAN, but it's not recommended.
There may be more help to be found at a forum with more activity...this forum is basically dead; the only people who hang around are no help whatsoever with game issues.
It's because of your FAT HEAD, you know.
