It's my understanding that you have to mess with the core game files to use Squinge's hack for LTWs, and that you have to remember to uninstall it when you patch or install a new EP.  Too much messing about for me.


Actually, I've been playing with his hack for a whiles, and I managed to install both Pets and more recently Seasons without even having to take those files out or put back the original ones.  Honestly, I totally forgot to do this for Pets and it just worked.  For seasons, I just tried it to see if it work, and it didn't complain at all. *shrugs*

I'm not necessarily encouraging you to try the hack just because I may have been lucky.  But it really isn't that much harder to install the hack and/or revert back to the originals.  Just keep copies of the originals in case you ever want to go back.  Installation just involves overwriting the originals with the hack and places the memories in your downloads folder.  It's pretty simple.  It's a shame that Maxis EA doesn't just enable them already.  I've echoed this over and over like a broken record, but if it can somewhat easily be hacked in there,  then it's not much more work for them to just include them already.  Hell, they could just release it as part of a patch, and make it available to those who just have Uni.

I always forget to take that hack out before patching or adding an EP.

Magicmoon:
Me too. I've had Squinge's LTWs in and always forget to "put things back" before installing a new EP or patch. Never had a problem either. I always back up my favorite hood before doing anything, but haven't ever had to revert to the backup after installs.

Swiftgold:
I've definitely been enjoying the new LTWs with Seasons - but I bet (nah, I know) that they didn't go ahead and enable the ones for Uni... sigh. So dumb, they could have done it right then and it would have been fine! They already spam the teenagers to go to college from the day they turn "12", they might as well have put those in!

Liss:
my knowledge and family sims are constantly rolling the Education career LTW.
