It would be good to see some hacks/mods that come out, to allow certian Story Progression things to be turned off, such as a: Sims_NoMoveAway, and other options, that we could put into Mods folder, and take in and out and all that jazz, I got no idea how hard/easy this is, but just putting the suggestion out there. No doubt after a few weeks this kidna thing will happen?

If we can get some of the better of the custom default skins from TS2, and plonk them into TS3, that would be aswesome, I to havent used defaut EAxis skintones or eyes or hair or clothes in a very long time with TS2, i often used the "EAxis Hiders" Id love to see the default replacement skins in soon, I cant remember the name of the skins/creater i used for TS2, but they were mint!

A "Bust Control Slider" would be awesome! LOL. I didnt worry about that to much with TS2, there was alot of meshs and stuff out there, but then you had to go and replace the entire wardrobe for the Busty sim, and alot was limited, be good to see some new developments for TS3 though.

And Tattoos, I wanna be able to layer a tattoo on my sim that was one of the awesome things that came out for TS2, towards the end, "stick on tattoos" not part of the skin.

Sweet, this is good to know, and i have no doubts that patch will be obsolate about 2 hours after being availble! Haha. Good old EAxis never fails! The Fails.

From that article, "EA said the pirated version "is a buggy, pre-final" version of the game."
Edit: Either this is a full version and like said many times before, they are covering their asses, because the game is crap... or it is infact, a pre-release of the final game, which would hopefully make sence as to why there are alot of issues with it.. and barely any content. the fact that we dont get another city is because we cant register a pirated game, but because its missing. I guess we wont know until the official copy is in our hands and every one elses.

dont quote me, but Im of the impression that FreeWill is only House based (from what Ive read in all these pages on MATY, my brain has possible gotten fried though, and ive messed up)... If you set it to off.. you have to do everything for your sims.. but in the world.. they will continue to do their own thing...
I would like to see a patch/fixes to disable certain things for Story Mode, relating to what your talking about.
Being that the game isn't so much officially released.. I'm wondering if EAxis has found these bugs/shit features, and are going to allow more of an option in upcoming patches.

Save yourself up 40,000 Life Points and buy the Collection Finder thing, or what ever it is.. you can then see all the seeds on the map, and you can spend a sims week getting your sim to run around all over the map picking them up, but I have noticed that one day the "unknown" seed will be in once place, then the next day/week I go back to get more seeds, and find that there is a tomato one there, so yeah its hit-and-miss.

How do you do downloads? In what way... How are they created? How do you install them? How do you download custom files? Explain?
also if your asking how/where to install them too. read this thread, and there is another one, that explain where these files need to be put and how in order for them to work.
To point you in the right direction... this might help... http://www.simlogical.com/Sims3ToolsForum/index.php?topic=24.0

Yeah this is one thing that is going to piss me off... In TS2, I liked to create a few households with 8 sims, that I had edited in SimPE to give them jobs and skills and what not, and then use them to become friends with that isnt just some random EAxis Sim, the thought of doing this and then finding out that they have died with out WooHoo-ing something leave me laying on the ground in the fetus position.
Why would EA allow such to happen, Yeah I can see them doing standard things, like viisting parks, skilling up a little. But NOT spending money, getting useless jobs, or DYING!! or having/adopting babies! (this I would like to see a package to disable certain Story Abilities)

I am a fan of this one... It tells you in the name of what it does... and the 3000 looks kool and it also reflects 3 being Sims 3..
Puts both hands and feet up for this one...

This was one thing I played around with in TS2, there were alot of empty templetes this/that around MTS2 and what not that were all the exp. with out all the gross ugly sims in it. And after adding new CAS faces and skins and what not, a new game would populate its self, but gees it took alot of stuff around repleacing stuff in SimPE etc.

So hopefully this can be done for TS3, to take out alot of the "Beautiful EA Created" Sims, and be able to replace it with not only custom made sims, but also new CAS faces and what not that would generate better looking sims etc.

We should like to think that EAxis would fix this in one of the several patches that they release a day after the release of the Official Game. And I have no doubts that patch will stuff something else up, and then they will have to roll back Patch1 with Patch2, then release Patch3 three days later, just like they did with TS2:Pets. Cheers to Pes for being more awesome then EA!

Yes, but with story Progression off, she wouldn't have a kid would she? and yes i mean aging set to HIGH... why am i insane? ur right though.

I may have miss read the first post, I'm not sure if this is only for Story Progression Off players, if so, please move this post to the proper thread...
(Also, this is my new account, I was jellygoose before this)

I have Story Progression on HIGH, and Life span on EPIC, running 2 different games:

In the first game, I moved a chick in after a while, we "Tried For Baby" bam.. done... She was preggers, and was for about 2 sim weeks for memory, Baby was born and the Simolgy says: Baby grow up in 40 days (no problems)

In the second game, I got down with a chick, she stayed over, I wasn't wearing protection, the bells went off. she got preggers, (still playing EPIC mode) she went home, she came over 2-3 days later, fat as ever... and then, she wanted to goto the hospital. so I took her, she had the kid.. and walked home with it. All good, she invited me in, then i went home for a sleep. I then invited her over couple of days later, tried for another baby.. then she went home, not thinking about it.. I saw a pop-up saying that she had a baby boy and its name was Locke... all this in less than a week... but then I noticed her walking around town, with a toddler under her arm, this was the first kid... but this was defo not 40 days after!

It seems as though regardless of having it on EPIC or not, the aging will remain on NORMAL, this sucks.

Anyone else noticed this kinda thing?

(Again sorry if this is in the wrong place.)
