Re: Actors not getting option to practise romantic scenes.

@Psychotps My! that was quick. Thanks for letting me know. I'll be at Google very soon! Yes, that darn host taking ages to come to the awards, while my sims sit there bored out of their brains! (Because I become God then and take full autonomy off them!). Would you believe, my sim who I moved to another house, can't get a gig now? I had to cheat to get him the gig he wanted! It started off he couldn't get the gig he wanted but could get the one he did last week. Then I decided I didn't want him to do the same gig twice, so I checked for gigs again and he couldn't get one! Do these GF problems never end. Might have to start a new thread. Yawn... Oh and I did test without mods.

    Try changing agencies. Different agencies offer different gigs. (And different payouts) "Well Suited" tends to offer a lot of movies. "Everyday" tends to offer mostly commercials and tv shows...

    I've been modding a VERY long time. VERY LONG. Been hacking into game files for more than 20-30 years. I wrote a program back in... when was it... 1992? I cracked the Ultima 7 game files and made a map editor/viewer program. Been making save-game editor programs longer than that. I still have an old Ultima 4 save editor I made back in the 80's stored away somewhere. Have made hundreds of mods for Skyrim and Fallout... I even have a custom launcher program for Detroit on Nexus.

    These little mods for Sims are nothing.

    Sadly, and I don't know what's caused this, but I can only have one actor in the household now or not all the practise scenes will show up.  Couldn't get the romantic one again, while another sim was in the acting career.  So I had one quit his job (he's won tons of awards anyway and I thought it nice to let a younger member of the house to keep going) and my workaround until this is fixed (and I emphasise FIXED because this is not how GF should work, surely???) is to have just one sim in the acting career.  Yeah!  You bet I modded our pay up because of this!  Please, guys.  Please tell me what this is about, why this is happening, if it's by design, or a random bug.  I was happily playing 2 sims, but now I'm down to one!  This doesn't sound right or sit well.  You know I've removed mods, tested, done all I can, so begging for a logical answer and/or fix.  What's GF pack for if only one can succeed?  I know they can all walk around just being famous for famous sakes, but that's no fun!  I don't want a bunch of posers, I want hard working actors, which I thought I would get.  Sorry if I sound harsh, but can you imagine my frustration at this simple bug that's ruining the purpose of my storyline and whole game?  Thanks if anyone can think of a way to sort this.  I have only about 5 saves in my folder, clear cache, nothing that would impact the game.  I await a Devs reply.
