I only have the Nighlife expansion pack. Is the harderjobs hack compatible?
DrKeith:
I have been seriously considering purchasing OFB for the longest time now. Cash flow issues is holding me back, though. In addition, I am wary 'starting over' again. I have tons of hacks and other downloads, and they are all horribly unsorted. I wasn't aware that subfolders within the Downloads folder are workable (I now know that under certain conditions, they are), so it's hundreds and hundreds of rows of content, and removing all of the hacks, and retesting them first, seems like a huge task.
Then again, OFB looks intriguing. It holds the most storytelling and playability value from what I can tell. Seasons also look like fun. I guess I'll make the OFB update soon and painstakingly sort out the hacks and reinstall the updates.
It's ridiculous how much of my time this game consumes!

Generally, as long as your hacks have names (as the Awesome hacks do) instead of incomprehensible numbers, they are not that difficult to sort out and delete. Problems arise mainly if you miss something. I would suggest deleting all hacks from the NL game (good idea to remove downloads altogether before installing OFB - save the downloads folder somewhere else while you install) and once OFB is installed, get the appropriate awesome hacks (and anything else you need that's compatible).
In any case, if your downloads folder is so disorganized, you might want to start over anyway.

That's the best excuse you can come up with?

Aye Cap'n, aaarrrrrrr

Hmmm. I wasn't aware there was an awesomeness rating for excuses as to why I haven't updated my game yet.
I'm currently saving up a measly buck here and there for my year-long stay in Taiwan, coming up this February. So any buck counts at this stage. In addition, I'll only be really able to play the OFB expansion pack for roundabout 2 months, before I take off for parts unknown.
The main reason? I'm already so besotted with this game, I'm getting dreams about my Sims. So it's kind of reaching seriously unawesome levels of preoccupation.
Thanks to all of you, though, for helping out. You never know if you stand a greater chance of being mocked for asking for help, or saying thank you for the help offered. Haha.
