Does anyone know if the favorites are supposed to do something? I had a sim eat his favorite food and listen to his favorite
station, but I didn't see any moodlets pop up or anything special.

My Sims make little happy noises and clap their hands when they get their favorite food.

Ah Ok, I was paying more attention to the moodlet bar than I was watching the sim.  Cheesy

So, I was in a wedding yesterday and while we were waiting in the limo bus for the bride to get her butt moving so we could, you know, make it to the church on time, her neighbors were sitting on their porch. The mom of the family was holding her toddler girl, who was waving happily...pantsless. Mom kept pulling her shirt down, as if her waist-length top was going to do anything. Nothing could hide that vag. Talk about DNW. With sim toddlers, you can actually click on a wardrobe with the toddler active to plan wardrobe. Your simmy toddlers can go shirtless or shirt-on, but luckily their vag will keep covered.

Poor kid is gonna start school and be known as that kid who runs around with no pants on.  People are incredible.  Mom clearly cares since she's pulling the shirt down but fails to do the easier thing and just put pants on the child.

My sim does that too. Also, she cooks it autonomously so often she practically lives on it.  Cheesy

One of mine just had a wish to prepare her romantic interest's favorite meal when she invited him over.

Does anyone know what the omni plant behind the science center eats?  I have the option to feed it finally, but I am not sure what to put into her inventory to feed it so she can harvest it.

How do we get ghosts playable again? I tried putting the tombstone in Agnes's inventory and clicking on the science center. No option to "resurrect" came up.

I think it will eat anything, thus being named the omni plant (omnivore)

I had something on the strange side happen earlier today:

I've been playing Jamie Jolina for a week or two of game time, and all the sudden she was credited ~75k simoleons. From what I can tell, no one she knows has died or moved away, and she's not a partner in anything, either. Anyone know if this was scripted, or just, uh, weird?

Whaterever you feed it, this you will harvest.
I discovered books, fish and every fruit and vegetable obviously. Maybe something else. It's interesting to see books on branches  Cheesy

Really? Crap.  I fed it a perfect apple (I went for quality rather than something special).  Well, I guess now I know I should go for something different next time.

For music, using a fairly nice stereo, my sims would get a +15 moodlet for the nice tunes.  If I switched it to their favorite station, neither the icon nor the description changed (I think), but the moodlet read +25.  So that does seem to work.  My sims tend to automatically change it to their favorite station, too, if they're left idle in the room for a few moments.

As for the favorite food, I haven't seen it do much.  Sims seem happy eating it, and I've seen 'prepare (someone's) favorite food' wants, but... that's all.  But... someone asked a question back in the thread a bit about being asked to deliver a group meal to someone.  I got that as an opportunity, and invited the Sim over and left him to read while the Sim cooked up (serve full meal or whatever option).  I made around five different dishes and started twitching... but then I made the favorite food of the requesting Sim, and he took that dish happily, but none of the others.

Damn, ninja'd by snoozelwoozel.

EDIT: After seeing a picture of the TS3 maid, I really hope there'll be modding and default replacements. The TS2 maid was dressed in a not very practical manner, but this is just over the top. I imagine it would be quite uncomfortable bending down to pick up trash in that dress  Tongue

A couple of nasties to report.

My sister was playing her neighborhood yesterday, only to find that three of the families had completely disappeared. The three families in question were actually created on Sims 3 on another computer (my laptop) and imported into the neighborhood. They played fine for awhile, but then were suddenly completely removed on a game load. This could be a custom content problem of some sort. Her other family, neighborhood CAS originals, were untouched. So there might be a problem when bringing in custom sims, although I have no idea what it could be. She put new copies of the custom sims in a new neighborhood. Now I wonder if they'll disappear again.

Secondly, I have this family I've been trying to set up a story for. A teenage brother takes care of his three younger triplet sisters after their parents die in a fire. Sounds like a Lifetime movie. Anyway, I'm still trying to set up the story correctly, but in one of my failures, I forgot to use motherlode before I moved them out, so they had no cash and had to merge with an existing family because you can't move onto empty residential lots for god knows why. And you know what that did? The four siblings lost all relationship to each other. They only knew each other as "best friends", although they all still share the same dead parents. Needless to say, that attempt was another bork so I have to go back once more to my chair-filled room with a fireplace and no door to try and burn the parents alive because our good old Tombstone of L & D is gone. Summary: Moving siblings into an existing household might break their bonds.

If only this really was a buggy pre-release...

Fun bit: Child Mortimer once sat down to play chess with a ghost. He didn't even look scared.

Still, game is boring me already.

I love the pics.  Thanks everyone.  With the reports of limited items and difficult to navigate catalogs it would be neat to see pics of the catalogs and stuff. Anyone?

Regarding Fat Genes...I've seen some people say it breeds.

If you create a fat Sim or one is born chunky, does working out not put the Sim back into shape/thin? Or once a Sim is fat, is he fat forever? If so that's really stupid.

I read something, somewhere by an EA bod that they will always natural tend to revert to their created 'default' size. So if you create them fat, they will always tend to slowly revert back to being fat.

Kind of like real life.  Or mine and Oprah's and Kirstie Alley's, anyway.

One of the lifetime reward thingies is a fast metabolism that'll help keep that from happening.

Re: assigning traits, I haven't had any problems with my 3 spawn.  Don't know if I'm just lucky, or doing something differently than some other folks.

Actually I do not think that is how fast metabolism works.  I had an adopted fat kid that I trained to become lean and muscular, then I gave him the fast metabolism perk.  It actually quickened the reversal to fatness.  If you read the description for that perk it says that it quickens the process of weight change, and that goes both ways.

PS: I also had the assign-trait bug once.

Sorry for asking another question, but is there a way to have individual roof slopes? I checked the cheats, and tried using the angle
roof tool, but I can't find a way to make individual roof angles different from each other.

Hrmm. Well that bites.  I only used it once, on a gal who was average weight and very athletic.
