Hey guys,

How do you play without the disc? I tried searches with "no cd" "no disc" "ts3.exe" but I can't find anything.

Thanks for your help.

Step 1: Install AwesomeMod.
Step 2: If the game asks for a disc, you did step 1 wrong.

FWIW, basbas, I've seen the exact same behaviour you describe, that is spawned sims not appearing in game unless you switch to them in Edit Town.
They appear, but the maptags need to be refreshed, otherwise you won't see their maptags right away. Switching to Edit Town will refresh the map tags

The maptags do appear, but the Sims themselves don't. When I click the map tag, the "Visit the Peasant-household"-option has been grayed out and the tooltip says "There's nobody home right now...". In Edit Town, it appears that they just live there, but they don't. When I switch to them via Edit Town, the game loads the household properly. I can't switch to them using the Awesome-way. It just takes a lot of time to switch to every household in town via Edit Town.

Are you sure the sims are actually at home, and not at work/school/walking the neighbourhood?  Sometimes it can be difficult to actually catch sims at home.

Wouldn't the tooltip say something like "Sim is out at the moment" then?
When I type in the babyboom command after spawnmoreoverlords, I can switch to the other households. They only contain a baby and a toddler then, and not the 'overlords'.
Also, when I save the game and load it again, all houses are just empty, with the standard "Nobody lives here"-tooltip and the empty house-icon next to the cursor.

What, exactly, is the difference between "There's nobody home right now" and "Sim is out at the moment"?

Would the exploding auto payment of bills shortly after delivery be a cleverly crafted task of RHOG? I've only enabled it for the first time this go round due to the advent of laundry so am unfamiliar if it's that or something else that snuck in?

RHOG automatically pays and banishes bills, just as if you had clicked the popup to pay them, yes. Since bill payment can be performed through player action without a cost in sim-time, it is included as part of RHOG, which covers all such tasks.

Well, that's the weirdness. I've never seen "There's nobody home right now" before. I only see it when using spawnmoreoverlords. It seems like the only data the game knows, is the name of the household and the family thumbnail, nothing more.

Are the setfitness and setfatness commands still in awesomemod?  They used to work, but I can't get them to work anymore.  If they were taken out, what is the current accepted method of permanently changing my sim's body type?

EDIT 6/30: In case anyone else wonders, twallan's supercomputer contains the option.

How does the addlotsize command work exactly? See, I tried typing in "addlotsize 25x30" in the cheat console but it says it's not a recognized command. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Put a space in there or omit the x entirely. The parser is a bit twitchy.

Speaking of, I don't think "addtrait Photographer's Eye" is recognized in the console. I tried several ways with no luck, eventually editing traits in CAS to make that 1 of the 5 and addtrait-ing one that IS recognized.

Usually the best way to get an addtrait to take is to chop off all punctuation and spaces from the trait name, as this is how the internal variables are.

I could swear I did that...but I'll try again next time I fire up the game.

Come to think of it, I may have dropped the apostrophe but not the space.  Undecided Thanks.

Is there a way with AwesomeMod to make sims that are genetically related to your existing sims, but not children?  Let's say I have a sim, and I want to make a sibling or parent for them.  Can it go backwards without starting over with the most ancestral sim and working your way down?  I thought I read about something like this, but I don't remember where.

Awesomemod has been downloading for 24 minutes. It is only at 16%. The download speed is getting slower with each passing minute and the ETA just keeps on going up. This is less than a 5mb file...this is ridiculous. Is this happening to anyone else?

 Cheesy

As I am sure most people have noticed, the site has been slow at times lately (for which I smell some TSR shenanigans). I find that if a download from alpha is going slow then switching to beta usually helps or vice versa.

If that doesn't work you just have to deal and it will pass.

Or nuke TSR's headquarters.

Alpha won't even attempt to load.

Beta is still downloading. I really, really hope the rar doesn't end up being corrupt or something when it finishes.
