They aren't doing it quickly. I've had homeless sim families existing for more than two weeks with no movement. Part of the problem, I think, is that often the family only has $20k and the many homes I have open are all above $70k.
Then they're stuck homeless until they make enough money to afford housing, duh. :P

Hey all! Apologies for my noobieness, but I am seriously baffled.
About a week ago, I downloaded the MoreAwesomeThanYou mod for Sims 3, on my laptop. Worked just fine (well...it crashed, until I followed the directions on this site about what to add and delete and such, THEN it worked just fine.)
I've since bought a much faster, etc desktop, which does not have internet access on it just yet. I saw there was an updated version of the mod, and I got very excited to try it out. So I downloaded the mod onto a jumpdrive on my laptop, then transferred the jumpdrive to my desktop. I followed the directions of where to put it of course, but it doesn't seem to be working. The game works just fine, plays perfectly normal, but none of the MoreAwesomeThanYou stuff works. Even something basic...like how Q should no longer quit the game...isn't working.
I've looked on here for the answer of course, but haven't been able to find it yet. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, or at least point me in the right direction?
Thanks so much!
Did you install the framework?
Yep!
More info: I have the patch. I think the problem MIGHT be that I'm supposed to be able to open the awesome and awesomeconfig files? When I try to open them on my desktop, I get an "access to the path...is denied" message. When i try to open them on my laptop, I get the "Windows doesn't know which program to use" error message.
THanks again for any help you can provide!

Jesus Christ.
Use monkey installer and have it installed that way. It is linked in this thread.
Actingi:
As mentioned above, I've already got the monkey installer. I also tried changing the rights, to no avail.
Disabling my UAC got rid of the error I was getting...but the mod still isn't working.
Sorry to keep bugging, but any other thoughts, other than reinstalling the game (which I'll save as a last resort).

True, but I have affordable housing available - not enough for all of them to immediately move in, but there are at least half a dozen houses under the 20K level. And no one's moving into them, even after 2-3 weeks. Hopefully I can figure out the undocumented shiny - thanks for the heads up there.
