Okay, I think I am going to break down and get Awesomemod now. I just hope my computer doesn't explode! :cry: I can't resist! If you know of any good places to get custom content, let me know! I'm on a downloading streak! :XO:

One thing to remember with Awesomemod is you need to keep a close eye on the download thread. Pescado, the creator, updates it almost everyday since officially it's still in beta testing mode. As for sites to download from, well, I've linked to several in my "screen test" threads. Also, this site keeps pretty up-to-date on new downloads available for Sims 3. ~Kara

awww…yeah Edmond is gorgeous! And he does seem to keep watching Emily, which is so sweet!

That would drive me insane – marriages and children just happening totally out of my control. That's too much like RL!

Question – it's still not possible to take shots inside a community lot, like the restaurant? Everybody eats outside; disappears into the 'office' (where obviously some real action is going on) and you can't follow them?

haha Yeah, it is more like RL in that way. It's kind of interesting to see what happens though. It's a lot easier if you just play one household. Nothing will happen without your consent then. And, as I mentioned there is a way to avoid the story progression even if you switch houses. Taken from the Awesomemod notes:

"God's Chosen People
Control-Clicking a sim/house will offer the option to "Make Sacred" or
"Remove Sacred", giving that household or sim immunity to StoryProgression
and other assorted random toadings. The Chosen receive a gold halo on
their house and on their tracking tags when tracked on radar. You may
switch instantly between the Chosen household with CRTL-RClick if
the "Supreme Commander" playmode is enabled."

I wonder if why it didn't work with Emily is that I only made the house sacred and not each individual sim? More testing is required.

And, you're correct. Some community lots (for instance, the theatre, restaurants, businesses, etc.) are rabbit holes where the Sims disappear and you can't follow. The Bistro restaurant has the option for your sims to eat outside as well. If they eat or have drinks inside, they change into formal clothes before disappearing inside. For community lots such as parks, the gym, museum and library, you are able to follow your sims inside.

All right…things happening while I was elsewhere would really make me mad. Like married and pregnant without my say-so. I mean WTF??? 😕

On the other hand I loved that look Edmond gave her at the restaurant! Such an Aww moment! 😛

Totally! I would have been upset if it had happened in a non-test house. I had the house set to "sacred" (an option from Awesomemod) and I thought that was supposed to make everyone in the house immune to storymode's random crap. I guess I misunderstood and need to look into that more. Thus the reason for a test house! haha

I know…I got warm fuzzies when I saw Edmond so excited to see Emily. It was so sweet. If I were a sim, one of my traits would be "Hopeless Romantic".

Yeah. Man, I wish I could do that 😥 …. I'm no good at making male sims. I couldn't do it to save my life 🙁 . Hopefully, I get a graphics card soon so I can enjoy this game too 🙂 … Thanks Kara! Now I can carry on with my day in hot guy bliss :halo: !

It's funny…I actually have an easier time making male sims than female sims. I'm happy with how Emily turned out, but it took a lot more work for some reason.

I hope your computer is fixed soon! It's sucks not being able to play when you're in the mood to do so. *crosses fingers for you*
