missing expansion packs = missing Life Time Wants?
FrickinIdjit:
I took out Uni after playing for an hour or so, and returned to my NL-only game. The LTWs I got (by aspiration) are:
Family - Captain Hero, Marry Off 6 Kids, Golden Anniversary
Knowledge - Chief of Staff, Mad Scientist, Criminal Mastermind
Pleasure - 50 First, 50 Dream, Pro Party Guest
Popularity - Mayor, General, Captain Hero
Romance - PPG, Celebrity Chef, Hall of Famer
Wealth - Chief of Staff, Tycoon, Criminal Mastermind and (with OFB) 5 Top Businesses
I also see wants to Influence to Prank and teen-adult dancing. Can teens and adults dance together in Uni?
Pyromaniac:
I've been having the same problems. I even made a thread in insim.net to discuss it. I have base + NL + OFB + Pets.
Are you sure the 20 simultaneous best friend/lovers/woohoo is UNI-only? ): That's a little disappointing.
cwykes:
Looks like you need Uni to ensure you get those missing wants then. At least I know I'm not delusional now! Thanks to FrickinIdjit for that list - mine is the same and I just realised I am missing "have 6 grandchildren" from the family sim wants. That would be a nice one for elders. I guess we all have 'hoods full of career dedicated sims with family sims providing the only light relief ::) + pleasure if you have NL.
Do we think Maxis intended us to have a cut down set or was it accidental?
Given 2 people say base game + NL is OK, one person says it's not if you add OFB and Pets on top and one person says uninstalling Uni to leave base+NL is not, I'd bet on accidental myself. 4's not a very big sample of course.

I would guess that their icon resources only existed in Uni, so they're unavailable outside of Uni.
We have these as wants. Isn't the same icon used for the want and the LTW?
Is it likely to be fixable if it was OK in Nightlife, but not OFB?
I have wants to slow dance, but no slow dance. got an error message on dancing the other day.. not sure why.
reason for edit - improved logic!
Pyromaniac:
Yeah, Maxis should really rethink their testing process before releasing the game. :-\
Anyhow, looks like those wants are UNI-only. If that's the case, then there should be a simple solution to the problem: Request a god-modder to implant those Wants using Simpe! They did it with the UNI careers, so it should be possible with 20 woohoo/lovers/bfs too.
Ness:
The problem is that it requires hacking core game files... and you can only have one such hack at a time.
I guess that it is possible that you may be able to talk squinge into doing it, but it's this type of game mod that Pescado will stay well clear of.
