THE HORROR: The REAL TS3 Scoop As It Unfolds

Neat tip - apparently, you can age a sim at -any- time.  Just put down a cake and have them blow out the candles.  I'm playing at epic, but I don't normally even like toddlers and babies - got the toddler all his toy skills maxed, taught him his toddler skills, and then I tried to age him - worked great.  Now if only someone could explain the blond head on the kid [unfortunately, a game crash lost him and his progress.  Wish I knew why it crashes so damn much.

Can you? I though the same but immediately after aging up my baby to a toddler, I tried to do the same from toddler to kid, but when I chose the age up/have birthday option (whatever it's called) on the cake, the toddler wasn't included in the list.

Soggy Fox:
It might be you need to wait a day or so first.  But the toddler still have 70 days or something to aging up, when I used the cake.  PErsonally, if I do have families, I'll do everything skill-wise before aging a toddler.  And make the baby happy before aging to toddler too.

--If, like me, you have ADD and try to alt-tab as soon as the game starts loading, it seems like sometimes it will hang at the final progress bar and never finish (fullscreen mode).
I noticed the very same thing. It worked fine for me in windowed mode, though. :-\

DJKID:
I'm positive that this has been asked but I can't seem to find it.
Is there any kind of in-game progress bar that shows weight and muscle? Similar to the fitness bar in TS2. It irritates me that I can't find the exact stats of my sim at any given time.

Also, my chick is in the Criminal career track, and whenever I send her off to work I tell her to workout. I hovered over the skill for awhile to try to monitor progress, but nothing happened. She was taken to jail, so I once more told her to work out. Same thing. Is it possible that once you reach a certain level you can no longer practice skills at work? I know it was working before.

TS3 sims have horrid levels of computer addiction as well. I cannot get my chick's girlfriend off of her damn laptop. One time, she came over and started using my sim's personal computer, broke it, and then wandered over to a table to pull her laptop out of her ass. She is not a computer whiz either.

--Seems like the 'stay the night' romantic option is as retarded as it was in TS2--I could never get the guest to actually *sleep* and the same thing happened when my Sim had her boyfriend stay over. He just wandered around and kept throwing up the bed thought bubble because he was so tired.


I tried to see if there was a "go to sleep" type option, but no such luck. Seems like it would have gone nicely with the new "stop doing that" option :P
