That's what I had originally thought, darn Maxis bugs making things so confusing.


Yes, I know, I was just explaining how it worked to jermz12 because he had asked.

I think they changed how family size works in Pets.  I have a family with 8 sims and noticed when the two adults were relaxing in bed that they had the try for baby option available still.  I thought I must have put squinge's hack in already and forgotten about it (I've been slowly adding hacks back in since I've gotten Pets for an early Christmas present), but later I checked and the hack wasn't actually installed.  I read about this happening to someone else on the inteen forums too, and Jase said that it wasn't the inteen that allowed it, it's just how the game is now with Pets.  You can read what Jase says about it here: http://box156.bluehost.com/~aestudi1/forums/inteenimater/viewtopic.php?t=411

So, anyway, I think that the 10 sims mod might be obsolete now and the 12 sim one might need some more changes to be able to work with Pets.

Edit: And to jermz12, it will still only be 8 sims when you create a family, the mod only allows you to have more family members by having babies or inviting to move in.  I'm pretty sure it's still hard-coded this way even in Pets, and nothing can be done about it, unfortunately.

Has anyone tried the new Lifetime Wants with Pescado's LTWvariety hack or know how they would work together? This is what his hack is supposed to do with the LTWs and I'm not sure if the game would even recognize the new wants or know what to do with them if I'm using his hack:

"Lifetime wants for careers are no longer strictly aspirationally correlated,
and will instead vary by appropriate interests and personality. Career-wants
for varying careers may appear outside of aspirational boundaries due to
family influence, and sim personalities will match desired occupation. Crazier
lifetime wants (Marry Off 6 Children, Have 6 Grandchildren) will disappear in
neighborhoods of advanced age and therefore population to slow down Armageddon."

I know you said that you've decided to scrap this idea, but I noticed that you didn't offer the 34B Natural as an option, which wouldn't create any of the problems that are mentioned here. It wouldn't get rid of the size B body type because it will still be size B, and it would still work well with all of the default maxis meshes because it would just look like they put on a bra. It seems like it would be fairly simple to create a high res option for either an enhanced(current option) or natural B replacement in this case. I've tried to look for a tutorial on how to replace default meshes so I could just do this myself, but I can't seem to find anything.

Thanks for the reply, I didn't realize that the others relied on the size of the defaults. Ah well, they're still great and I'll try checking out that tutorial. Thanks again.

There are two options that I think would be nice to have with these wonderful variations that you have so kindly shared with us. The first is to be able to have adult default replacements using the 34B natural breasts instead of the 34B enhanced so that those who prefer the more natural look have that option. Personally, I like how the natural ones look when nude and the enhanced ones when clothed, so it would be nice if the default skins were in the natural state like the rest to fit with this.

My other request is that I would like a skin where the teen D grew up into the adult D instead of the adult DD and then for the teen C to become the adult C instead of D so that they aren't both D. I really like how the teen D breasts look and would like to use them, but the adult DD are getting a little too big for my personal tastes, and I wouldn't want my teens to grow up to have them.

Anyway, I want to say thank you so much for making such amazing additions for our Sims. You've already done so much work I almost feel bad making a request, but since my requests would be using meshes that are already done maybe it wouldn't be too difficult to do and hopefully there are some other simmers out there who would like these options as well.
