So what's been fixed in NL
nectere:
just out of curiosity do you place all the money trees at the same time? I ask because I have several trees on a lot, but I didnt place them all at the same time, assuming that if they bloomed all at the same time it would lag the game, so I havent had any problems with them since they are staggered.

Surely Maxis can produce a bit of code to pick a random first and second name not just repeat the same pairings?
Relatedly, the game just needs to have more last names. Seeding with the last names of the developers was a cute idea, but now it's time to add like a thousand more last names (and a few hundred new first names), so duplication by the random number generator just goes away...

Ancient Sim:
I know this has been mentioned already in this thread, but I can't see a "Search This Thread" button so I can't quote it. I've just had a quick go on Nightlife and I noticed that my graduates have all lost their diplomas. LUCKILY, TwoJeffs buyable aspiration/reward objects collection still works so I was able to buy them back, but what about those who don't have that?
I am also a little confused about the Matchmaker. She wandered onto the lot I was playing, which just happened to be inhabited by a just-graduated Sim who needed a partner. I'd made her Pleasure Seeker (more on that in a minute!) and paid full-price for a date. I assumed she would be told to go Downtown to meet her date, but instead a neighbourhood Sim turned-up. He's one of my Romance Sims (in fact, he runs the local bordello) and is very much 'taken' (several times over). I would also have assumed that by paying full-price their turn ons/offs would match, but they didn't. His turn-off was Fitness and my Sim was basically 99% fit. The date is not going very well at all! Oh and I have a question, presumably anything not marked with the lightning flash doesn't count towards the date score?
OK, now to the new Aspiration. This Sim had already achieved her first LTW at Uni, namely 20 Best Friends. Her new one was a career-related one that she would probably have achieved after her first day at work. It was replaced by "Have 50 Dream Dates". FIFTY?! I would be bored to death after five! I can understand a Romance Sim getting that, but presumably they won't? Hopefully JM's Lotdebugger will work so they will get it if the game doesn't give it to them. Anyway, 50 is a ridiculous number. Apart from how long it would take to achieve them, the boredom element would render it impossible on its own. It should be 15 at the absolute most, preferably no more than 10. There is NO WAY I am letting any of my Sims keep this aspiration simply because it's totally ludicrous. It even beats "Have 10 Children Abducted" (which I have never got, incidentally).
I have come out so my custom-content can be enabled. I simply must see if the "No What's This" hack works (It's a GARAGE, you stupid woman). I'd forgotten how irritating that is! And that censor blur ... oh, lordy. Well, let's face it, when an elderly man sits on the toilet without pulling his pants down, we aren't allowed to see the pants that we see all the time when he's walking around. That makes so much sense!!!
Other than that, so far so good. Being able to see the surrounding houses is awesome, it looks so much more natural. I have a question about that but it belongs in another thread. Will be going Downtown when I go back in. I have a newly-elderly Romance Sim who got to elder before having his first kiss (no, seriously, he's very shy!) and I want to find him a nice woman. Will he get an elder? Will have to see. Anyway, he is my second Romance Sim to try and they've both had a penchant for fat women. Not sure what that's all about, especially as they are both 100% fit themselves. There aren't anywhere near enough turn-on/offs, by the way. We need a lot more!

HatedMaxoid, I've read almost every post here lately looking for this and haven't seen it. My problem is that when you move in a NPC, they are supposed to bring 1,000 with them. The game says they do but the money never appears. Has this been fixed in NL?

Good to know. I'll make sure I have everyone stow their diplomas before Nightlife!

yay for absurd and ludicrous LTWs. 50 is pretty ridiculous: There aren't that many people to be dated in the neighborhood! Does it count if you date the same person 50 times? Expect to see that one receive some "sanity checks" in "sane LTWs".

Actually, it does make a lot of sense: The pants aren't what's being hidden, what's being hidden is the fact that he cannot drop his pants.
