Indy Stone Mod development stops - News at 9
Cedia:
I've been thinking about this a lot and I'm getting close to wanting to try the Awesome story driver. The whole charity system thing is what is pushing me over the edge. However, I don't want to have to go around placing cribs and doing other things to households that I have no intention of playing just to keep the town's population balanced.
Mr. Pescado, could you please make a version for single family players, or at least have settings where we can disable this crib annoyance and anything else like it?
And I'm not really sure if I should be posting this in this thread or in the requests thread.

I think I found a way to combine the two story drivers. Here's how I did it:
Configure the AM file so that IndieStone driver is enabled and AM Story driver is disabled.
Delete your script cache.
Start/load game as normal.
Type showconfig to check that the options above are set.
Type setconfig UseIndieStoneDriver false
Type setconfig UseAwesomeStoryDriver true
Check showconfig again to make sure that you got them switched.
What happened to me then is that AM story driver started working, but Indie did not stop, and the two ran together. You can configure Indie options to your liking and run both together for your ideal game experience. For example you can turn off careers and relationships in Indie and let AM handle those, while still enabling Indie to make babies. You can use both drivers at the same time for relationships and careers, even, although it may lead to some job hopping as Indie assigns someone a job and then AM makes them quit. However the two drivers seem to run together just fine, I had no crashes or other weird game behavior.

If you encounter serious bugs while doing this, please don't report them. This sounds like a very, VERY bad idea.

I must make a vote also. I play maybe no more than 3 families, but don't play Supreme Commander. Disable the crib requirements will lessen the pressure of having to control households so we don't have to worry about them. Right now, even after adding cribs to the lots and playing for 4 sim weeks, not one of the married couples or single sims have had a child. My poor family kids wouldn't have a buddy if I haven't added sim families with children to the hood.
I guess the way the story mode settings are more favorable for those who play Supreme Commander, but doesn't help the gameplay of simmers who play one major family.
