So what's been fixed in NL

It doesn't actually change the graduation status of the sim (that is, if he graduated Summa Cum Laude it still shows as such on his diploma) but it does count as a graduation on every relative's memory panel. This can enable sims with the particular LTW to achieve it with only one or two actual graduations.
A similar "good" bug that I probably shouldn't mention 8) is that the "WooHoo with N different Sims" or "WooHoo with N different service Sims" want-check seems to count "WooHoo with Fred" and "Public WooHoo with Fred" as two different Sims. So Gina Raptor (I'm pretty sure) got the big "WooHoo with five different service Sims" power want credit by WooHooing three Professors normally, and public-WooHooing two of them. Which was a nice surprise, but probably not as designed!
(And I also think it's great that there's an actual Maxoid paying attention here; much appreciated!)

Here's a problem that has been bothering me for a long time...
Since the very first patch, my game lost all the specular highlights, for example all the toilets, sinks, or anything that should be shiny looks like clay. I was hoping this would be fixed in NL, but my game still looks rather poor. Or it might just be my old-school Radeon 9800 Pro-card? NL doesn't seem to like this card, the performance overall is pretty bad. It's time for a GeForce 6800 I guess. :D
Woah...if it goes bad with your 9800 Pro, imagine how it goes with my 9200 (though it packs 256MB)!! BTW, take a look at your settings, maybe something got lowered and thus the shininess you're refering to got lost. Ah, try the latest drivers too (I check for new ones at least once per month).

I don't understand what you mean by 'as designed'. Can't these things be changed? The serving only 6 people meals when there are 8 allowed in the household is annoying and ridiculous.
Ancient Sim:
Someone mentioned the diagonal doors problem and I'd like to echo that. Unless I take control of a visiting Sim, they will stay inside a room with a diagonal door literally until they drop dead. My own Sims will do the same unless I give them an instruction. For some reason, they just cannot find the doors. I even had to remodel the Maxis-made Pleasant house because of this. Once I can remove the gravestones when NL is installed I will be bulldozing it because it's full of bugs anyway.
Another problem that hasn't been mentioned relates to graduation. My Sims never get a want to hold a graduation party, although they often come back from their finals asking for an ordinary party or a sports party. Then when they graduate, they get a "Had a Great Party/Had a Lousy Party" memory, not "Had a Great Graduation Party/Had a Horrible Graduation Party", so I have to alter their memories and everyone else's that was at the party in SimPE (which I am currently in the process of doing yet again as we speak). Can this be dealt with, because it appears everyone else has the exact same problem and it's a pain having to go through SimPE everytime anyone has a party. The alternative is not to have parties, but then I have the problem of them not transitioning.
Oh, and nannies. I know you said you'd fixed some bugs, but have you sorted out the weirdness since Uni when a nanny is scheduled? The fact that they always turn-up at the wrong time or leave early and at least one other nanny turns-up, usually in the middle of the night? It's not so much of a big deal now as I'm using Dizzy's Sitter mod (far more logical, Maxis really should have included that option), but now and again I do like to terrorise the nannies. I've already had two die (naturally) from starvation - their own fault if they refuse to go home, yes?
miramis:
I noticed that problem with diagonal doors on some lots, Don Lotharios bachelor pad is a good lot to test it on, sims seem to congregate in the bathroom doing nothing. A sim can get 'stuck' when trying to navigate outside a house with diagonal walls also, this can be worked around by placing objects around the diagonal area to square it off.
