I have all the Sims 2 EP's up to and including Seasons, and for the longest time I've been considering getting the rest while I still can.

Cause, quite frankly I never did get any of the expansions for Sims 1 until it was far too late and now they are rather hard to find.

Now, I know there was a giant issue with securom on Bon Voyage. But since EA has been getting smacked around about that for a few years, to the point that not too long ago they "offically" announced that they would cease usage of said DRM and return to CD Keys and stuff more akin to Safe Disc.

Well, cutting it short, I'm out of the loop, I don't know crap about what's going on with the EP's past Seasons other then what I've mentioned. I want to know if they've been released DRM free, and if they are worth it in peoples opinions.

Okay, so, yeah, I bought the Sims 3, yadda yadda. Lets skip that shocker and get to the part where I need help please.

So, I was working on this family. My favored Sim had kids with 2 of the three women living there, one had triplets, the other twins. Yeah, mods for it were involved.

And I was working on the kids, force aging them due to having aging for the town off. And story progression off. And not wanting permenant infants there, especially because the AI cant take care of them.

And suddenly I get a message that they left town. How is that possible?, why?, I know the game is unpatched. But, oy vey.

I didnt save, and I wanna know if it will keep happening. And also if there is something I can do to prevent it.

I'm not sure I wanna get that patch, cause I've been reading that its really hard to install. And its been killing peoples games and mods.

Edit: Uh, nevermind. I did a good bit of research after posting this. Like, hours afterwards. And found my answer. That being if the neighborhood gets too full this will happen. So I corrected the problem by evicting a bunch of Sims. Course, this is crap. I dunno who thought this was a good idea in the first place. And I wish there was a mod to disable that.
