Flower arranging borked?
eevilcat:
The last time I had any of my sims do flower arranging was prior to installing FT and the florist bench was working just fine. There were a couple of now deceased sims who got their gold badges and made a few snapdragons no problem at all. I've bought a couple of florist benches for the Uglybutt family and had both Rohina and B using them. First off it seemed to take forever to get their bronze flower arranging badge, something like 40+ daisies when I thought it used to take 30. Secondly, and more importantly, now they have their badges the options for making the next tier of flowers is not available, so no tulips. Is this a known bug, or have I borked something? I did a search and I think the only reference I could find was from Zazazu who thought the skilling was taking longer but no mention of missing flower arrangement options. If it makes any difference I think I'm still running the first (withdrawn) patch with a no CD crack exe on a legit game - all EPs/FFS/GLS/H&M.
BastDawn:
I just tested it in my unpatched FreeTime game. 40, perhaps 41 daisies (at triple speed, I may have missed one) to the bronze badge, and then the tulips showed up just fine for me. I think you broke it, unless it's a patch issue.
cwykes:
Maybe these sims are clueless compared with the ones you remember? Speed of learning flower arranging is linked to creativity skill and some personality trait (playful?). DK if that means it takes more daisy bouquets to earn that badge or if each bouquet takes longer. Also, if your old sims used to have snapdragons around and these new guys don't, they'll have to take more comfort breaks which means the elapsed time to learn will be even longer. ............... Or maybe you broke it............
I think the new sewing badges take forever to learn and comfort drops really fast for that and potting, but then I'm used to having snapdragons around.
powercut:
I've done this several times on all the OFB benches since installing FT and 40+ items seems to be the norm for the first badge. I always started with the associated skill maxed out as well, so that wasn't an issue.
The missing tulips option does sound like borkage, though.
Zazazu:
I have a sim who was randomized with a silver flower-arranging badge. Just checked in my all-EP game, FT patch3 with crack, and she has the option to make tulips.
