Is Showtime worth it at all?
In all honesty I’m not super eager to get it, but I do want to look into more custom worlds and most require Showtime to run. So is the expansion fun at all or should I stick to the custom worlds that...

what i dislike about that EP mostly is the constant spawning of the singer, magician & acrobat role sims
i hate every sort of role sims forced on me, didn't manage to get them stop spawning even with NRaas
Hard to tell from my tablet but I believe Story Progression and the Career Module is required. This isn't the exact path but you're looking for Career: Disallow. Disallow the Showtime professions here. Any sims currently assigned should be reassigned. Sims may be assigned to disallowed careers/professions but the game should catch on within a sim day or two and reassign. Is this something you've already tried?
I bet @igazor could clear this up in better detail if he has time.
On City Hall or an in-game computer,
NRaas > SP > Town Options > Career:Disallow > (select the three Showtime careers)
NRaas > SP > Town Options > Skill:Disallow > (select the three Showtime career skills)
(SP Skill add-on module required)
The SP Career module is not necessary. This won't stop the game itself from spawning homeless street performers entirely, the Register mod can't prevent that either, but for most of us the SP disallows do slow down the spawnage considerably.
thank you
i will try that next time i play again TS3
they don't spawn often & not regularly, just from time to time i get them nearly everywhere, even at the university
i tried to replace them with my own but then again those are homeless & that means they will be replaced at some point with another set of cloned homeless because the game is programmed to spawn again & again cloned role sims after the first batch was culled tracelessly
since TS3 i just hate role sims
i wish all those role sims could have a steady real home & won't be just expendable background filler, at least that
i have my own played sims in those professions, the game still insists on spawning the role sims nevertheless
that role sims palooza is the basis for all that unaccessible unchangeable backfiller stuff we've got with TS4 :confused:
sorry to derail the thread a little with that but this is my main complaint about this EP
other things in that pack are a great addition though
