Generations: What Sucks, What's Fucked, and What Did EA Get Right by Utter Luck

<< < (43/75) > >>

Fribble:
Boarding schools are borked for me as well, I sent 2 kids off and they spent a day there and are now hanging around the house  and I can't send the little buggers off again.
The relationship bug comes and goes, for me restarting works. But then I did not have it from the start.

On an interesting note I discovered that children of imaginary friends inherit the option to turn to toy form.

The ballet shoe things are actually slightly different in the girls' version (they have little bows on them) so it's deliberate. Not a problem, just slightly surprising.

And the opera gloves?


Haven't looked at those, but given that accesories are not selected automatically, so your sim will only wear them if you tell him to, I don't see that this can possibly be an issue.

Madame Mim:
Claeric:- I should have known little boy Princessess was too ecumenical for EA.


IMHO boarding school sux in general. I too had the 'one day there and then the kid came back' issue, but after a day or two at public school he was definately returnable. He stayed until teen-dom when he got a 'school report' similar to the one that appeared when he was earlier returned, except that I had the option to keep him there.

He seems to have learnt nothing at boarding schoolThe game applied his new trait automatically without even a "because you're a slack parent we'll do it for you" reasoning (although that may be because they recognise it would be some kind of tautology - but EA doesn't normally recognise the more refined concepts of life
Where's the point in that? You send them off to posh schools (the sporty one in this case) in order to improve their educations.

I'll report more on this when he comes home as an adult, but I think we're actually better off keeping them home. At least until somebody makes some kind of boarding school adjustment mod.

Robowolf:
I like kids (and older sims?) being able to wear all clothes, regardless of sex. Gender roles are overrated.

Boarding schools being borked sucks - being able to send those brats off is definitely something I'm looking forward to when it's working right.

BlueSoup:
Further on the photography thing - my problem has started again, and it's coincided with her first vacation. She can take a photo but it won't give her credit for photographing a specific object. And then she is totally frozen with that in her queue until I reset her.
