THANKS THIS IS GREAT

Pixi, in order for anyone to be able to help you, you need to post the error log.  The message you posted told you where the error log was.  Find it.  Attach it to your post.  Maybe then someone will be able to help you.

Ah, sorry, I've attached it to this post. And I tried to get two of the Sims engaged to test if the arch works that way, but it keeps wanting me to propose "move in" first. I don't want them to move in together--that's part of the reason I got the arch in the first place, and I've read that you can get them engaged without having them move in together, but it doesn't seem to show up. When I had two Sims dine out, at one point there was the option of "surprise engagement", but that doesn't seem to be there anymore.

The Sim I want to get hitched is in love with three different people, and I was hoping to get him married to all three of them. One is a pre-created Sim (Weldon Dallas I think his name is), and the other two are characters I created (who just happen to be married to each other... yeah, I dunno how it happened either). I don't know if that helps or not... if you need any other information, just ask. I'd really like to get this working, thank you. Smiley

EDIT: Stupid n00b question... what's InSim?

Just to OVER clarify, for challenged types:  This ONLY affects sims married with THIS arch, other sims/marriages/romantic behaviours are unaffected?  ie is anything in this global?

Yes, this does not affect the Maxis arch.

Just wanted to report that the arch works perfectly fine in my game, and I only have Uni + NL. And, as an added bonus, it doesn't make my sims wear the stupid Maxis wedding outfits, just their regular formalwear.

My colonial 'hood and I send our undying thanks for your hard work, Marhis & Inge!


(Also, the arch overrides Pescado's marriagetraditional hack with a version of Marhis' last name chooser hack... is that built into the object itself? And is there any way to disable it? It's not a big issue, it's just distracting when I'm in a non-modern hood.)

I have the choose surname hack, and I successfully married William II Carpenter and Jasmine Curtin, and she took his name, but then little baby William III was born with his mother's original surname. Anything I can do to avoid this?

This is one of the issues with this hack but it's easily mended with the Sim Blender or SimPE. Personally I prefer the Sim Blender since it allows for in-game changes and lets you safely change both surname and personal name; SimPE only properly changes last name and requires you to exit the game first.

Haifen, might want to check timestamps. The question was two months ago. Not saying that the answer isn't appreciated, it's just something to watch when necromancy has been practiced.

What EP combination do you have? We know that full functionality requires OFB.

Hm, does this mean it doesn't "properly change" the first name? How so?

Not something I've bothered to look into much, personally. You can also use TJ's SimBlender over at Simbology...much safer type of Insim utility...to change names. You have to change the first name to what you want the last to be, then copy first to last, then change the first name again. I do that a lot in my Free Love households because I'm typically marrying four sims in as a unit at a time and keeping track of what I'm supposed to choose in each separate arch-run is annoying.

Much appreciated Smiley Problem had been bugging me for a while.

Oh, I know... I'm just curious about what specifically SimPE does wrong, because I've done a lot of name editing in it and never had a problem.

Pescado advised against it in a thread some time ago. My search skills have failed but hey if the FOJ says don't do it, don't do it.

SimPE does not properly change the first name of a sim on its OBJD. Last-name changes can be accomplished just fine, but firstnames are not properly set. Mostly, this is bad. Just use the Batbox to change the name instead.

Can you please to a version for the Sims 4? I have MC Command Center and I can make people fall in love and out again, but it's really annoying to do and to marry kids I have to age them up into teens.
