Expansion Packs (and whether to use them or not)
Nepheris:
'lo all,
Just a quick question today. As I've been deprived of my precious comp for a few months (long story) I'd like to start fresh over with TS2. Complete new install, sparkly clean folders, all that.
Now I'm wondering whether it's a good idea at all just to install a few select EP's (seeing as I don't really use the features of some), or if that will potentially FUBAR my game and it's better just to install the whole lot to be on the safe side.
Any ideas?
J. M. Pescado:
Installing select EPs is fine. As a guideline, I would recommend NL, OFB as a minimum, but never JUST NL and things below it, because the NL engine itself is crashware.
Nepheris:
Would it be okay to install Base, Uni, NL and Seasons only? Thanks anyway for a lightning-fast response ;)
J. M. Pescado:
That's an acceptable stable config, yes. I recommend OFB as well, however, as installing OFB enables you to create satellite "shopping district" subhoods identical to the regular subhood, and enables the ownership of community lots, which in turn enables Awesomeware to directly manipulate the guest list by category. Pets is not as necessary, as the added elements of Pets are all noncritical.
Nepheris:
Okay, thank you. I'll add OFB to the install list.
