I'm going to pm Esme to come take a look. I think there might be some trouble with NPC's sporning all over the place and I'm sure she added some hacks as there wasn't a patch. But if you are installing on a pc division (if that's the correct term, since I am a dirty PC player) couldn't you also use the pc patch?

Also wooot BV! You also get digging for tresure and walk to lot- A couple of the best two thing from that ep.

Hmm, I was afraid of that. I do have the hack that keeps NPCs from spawning until the game explodes, but I think there's other smaller things like they broke Primping again etc etc.

I *could* use Boot Camp or partition my drive, but I don't feel confident in the technical details of it and frankly I am just too lazy to go through all that just for one application. ;P So I just stick to the Mac versions.

I didn't know Walk to Lot came with this EP, that will be much used!

When do they not break Primp? Actually, I'm not sure the actual official game patch fixed Primp. I have Sims who should do it autonomously and don't.

Hello, Toast. :) I hope it's not too presumptuous to add my advice here...

There isn't a BV patch for Macs, and the so-called "Seasons patch" doesn't actually work. Primping broke for me shortly after installing Pets/OFB (I installed them at the same time) and was never fixed, no matter how many patches I used.

I use lots and lots of hacks from Pescado at MATY: not only the vacation fixes, but also the no_____regen ones (nodormieregen, notownieregen, etc.), creaturefix, anything related to gardening, and of course primpfix.

Without the MATY hacks, I was lucky to get a year out of the game without having to rebuild manually, even using the official patches, so I'd recommend going with the stuff from MATY.

Good luck, and enjoy the new features!

OK, I should have figured Aspyr would crap on us one last time I suppose. I have the noregen hacks and I'll look through the other "discontinued" stuff there for primping and the like. Thanks!
