Title: I just noticed this has anyone else.
Post by: Meek_Monkey on 2006 March 15, 08:15:52
I went into Strangetown hood after installing OFB and have noticed slight problem, My sims that have graduated from uni have lost all but the normal amount of want slots this is in the downtown area I am going to check out the main hood yes the extra want slots are gone too.

Yep, this happens to me, I have 5 lots all-full and were mostly juniors and seniors and their extra want slots were gone. I notice after graduation and when they left the lot and move into the main hood, some of them did get there want slot back but not all.
I use twojeffs College Adjuster to fix the others.

You can try giving it back to them with Christianlov's Counterfeit College Diaploma mod. I love that thing.

I've been using it too. I just can't bring myself to play the University town anymore. It's so boring and it takes them so damned long to graduate.  >:(

I'm just curious if it fulfills the "graduate three children from college" want.

It might fulfill it a little too well.  I've had the diploma hack installed for a while, and it's been months since I sent anyone to Uni.  Shortly before I installed OFB, I had an elder go perma-plat for the "graduate 3 kids from college" want when her second child got a fake degree from this "diploma", and the third was still a teen living at home.  A little while later it happened again, but in a different family where the parents had only had 2 kids (!)  So I would say that it should be used with caution if you have Sims in the same family who have the "Graduate 3 kids from college" want.  You may find it's fulfilled when it really shouldn't be.

That isn't because of the hack - it's because of the screwed up way the LTW works. Even if you graduate them the normal way the LTW will be filled after two kids graduating. It's pretty well documented, and I had it happen myself with one of my playables.

Does JM's lot debugger - upgrade pre-uni sims do the same thing?

Well that is cool. The family simmie I have has two (with a third on the way) kids, but her husband has a teenager from a previous marriage. He will count towards her LTW, won't he? They're only related by marriage....

No it doesn't as I am having this problem too. All my graduate sims from NL now only have the basic want slots since installing OFB. I have tried JM's debugger but no, it doesn't work with these particular sims.

Hmm, I don't know why, but I haven't come across this problem. My few graduates that I have still display all 6 want slots.
