"Buy a karaoke machine" never triggers for me (I'm playing with just the EPs up to Pets)


For some reason, I think they changed (and thus broke) that with pets.  Before pets, the want was "buy a stereo costing at least X" (which only the karaoke machine (and DJ booth?) could fulfill), when EAxis changed the name of the want, they probably also changed the "want category", but didn't change the karaoke machine itself.

I wish this did work in my game. It's especially annoying at college during winter (I've got a bunch there right now) and all the family members are at school/work.

I could be imagining this, but I think it only works due to an Awesome mod. I don't recall which one...at all.

I don't know why, but I seem to remember when whatever mod this was first came into play, and I'm sure it was many expansion packs ago.

Actually, it may not even be an Awesome mod. Oh, I don't know. Too many years of simming fried me completely.

I know that it does work for me, as my Uni students get this want and fulfill it constantly.  It might be due to a mod, but if so it must almost certainly be an awesome mod, as I have very few others, none of which should affect this, I think.  Stuff like the TwoJeffs college adjuster, Atavera's animated windows, Christianlov's clothing rack, etc.

Speaking of which, how the heck do you fulfill the "Win Gaming Contest" want?  My started it, another Sim joined in and lost, and then he just went on and on and on playing by himself.  I had to cancel it eventually because it was time for sleep.


If only I could actually get the gaming contests to that point it would be an improvement. I had a sim start one and when another sim tried to join she turned on the computer, waited, inserted the cd, waited, then just repeated the cycle over and over. Meanwhile my sim has already been playing SSX3 for about 2 sim hours.


You need a community lot with just computers, and no other fun objects. You get loads of people joining then. I have one, I'll upload it later.


I uploaded it here if anyone wants it. I had to make a new one as mine is full of CC. Easier just to rebuild from scratch using the Maxis crap.

There are a number of wants that don't fulfill in my game (NL, OFB, Pests, SSN), beginning with "Influence to Prank".  It doesn't work even on plantsims, who are the only ones in my game who have the interaction available.  "Talk to a Relative" (by phone) and "Get Fit" are trash, as are a lot of the LTWs that I encountered for the first time with Seasons - 20 Best Friends, Golden Anniversary, Max 7.

The "Buy a Stereo Costing $xx" didn't fill either with the DJ booth or by purchasing a karaoke machine.  It did, however, start getting filled when I finally installed GLS.  It seems that there a few stray wants that need tidying up.

Tonight I had a business owner with the want to promote his cashier to manager. I put her on sales and she got her requisite 5 badges. He promoted her to manager, but the want didn't trigger.
