Can it be Wed 2pm at this house and last Friday 3am at that house?
Nancy:
Sorry to post new, but I've searched until I am blue in the face and don't see an answer for this.
I assumed I want to turn storymode progression off. I did. Well, all my houses are on the same date and time anyway.
The ones I care about and checked are Sacred - whatever that is supposed to mean, and I haven't quite figured that out either.
Is "storymode progression" not about it being able to be different days and times at different houses - like it was in the Sims 2?
And what is "Sims 2 Style Aging" in awesomemod?
Maybe I just have the wrong options set, but whatever I try, it's always the same date and time in my two different houses I care about. And my sims invariably spend loads of time standing by the side of the bed when they wake up, and I've forgotten it's that time, even though I have logs of when everybody is supposed to wake up....
Please don't tell me it's back I switched active houses by control-clicking and "switch to" with the awesomemod - and if it IS that - is there a safe way to change active households?
Sorry I micromanage my sims, but I do....

The game has only uniform time for the town. There is no other option and it's nigh unlikely that there ever will be as it would be a lot of work just to make it do something that people mostly bought sims 3 for it to not do :P.
rhodaloo:
I had to clarify this with Pescado. If you have Sims 2 aging enabled, then the only the sims you play age. However the clock will change uniformly across the neighborhood. Once I realized that, I disabled Sims 2 aging. Part of the enjoyment of Sims 3 is that it is different from Sims 2.
chann:
The closest way to run on "TS2 Time" is to turn on TS2Aging and play fixed 7 day rounds in every household. The only unrealistic effects are that households will still accumulate money while you're not playing them, and the longer-term moodlets (especially from deaths) will wear off before you get back to the household. And you can't switch between them on a whim as it will break up the simultaneous aging.
Nancy:
Thanks for the last comment.
I got the awesomemod when I wanted the older daughter to move out of Mom and Dad's house.
For a whlie, playing two households was fine.
Now, I was stupid and kept Mom and Dad alive, Younger brother married and they have a baby.
Older daughter across the street married and has a toddler.
Wow, it's getting hard to play the daytime, particularly the morning. Especially with the darn babies/toddlers. And both young women are pregnant. What did I do to myself????
And how in the WORLD do I play a third generation.
I really like being able to go out around town more easily, but.... Darn EA, what were they thinking. Didn't they see our old challenges.
Well, I'll try the last suggestion and deal with the money/moodlet things.
