AwesomeStory not producing any babies?

As I wrote in my first post, I'd like to be notified of who's getting married or getting a baby. That's the only reason why I activated the info popups.
It would be nice if in the near future the ability to choose which information to show in these popups was introduced.
This stuff is perfectly accessible for scripting mods; there's really no need to pester Pescado with it. I just took the related code snippet from the BCM and made a stand-alone birth notifier. I'v made a marriage notifier as well, but it's difficult to test it, because marriages are difficult to initiate without involvement of the active sim. And to work with StoryProgression mods, it's necessary that said mods send the appropriate events so the notifiers have something to catch.

So what should I be looking for to achieve this? Apart from AM I'm not really experienced when it comes to Mods for Sims 3.

I've found that using the age transition events don't work well either if you're trying to create a birthday notifier. A lot of the events only get sent if they happen in the active household.

AwesomeStory should be firing the appropriate events, so that the information will appear in your newspaper if you elect to play normally without the Voice of God.

Noooo! Please don't change how sims need a crib in order to breed. I deliberately plan my crib distribution to make areas of the hood where there are large families, and other areas that are quieter and just have childless couples or a couple of kids.
Rather than completely change the way births are controled, Pescado could put an option in the configuration file.
Cribs required? enabled/disabled.
This would allow the game to have the current method available and a version that did not need cribs. Both parties to the discussion on cribs (for or against), should then be happy.
This would however require more coding on Pescado's part, as he would need to put checks in the game to decide which block of code to process and add any additional code.
He may not want to do this. Although, as I support the "No cribs lobby" I hope he does.
