New save without CAS
Now that I am back from TS3 to TS4 for a bit, and after having to start fresh a couple of times there is something that I wonder about: Is there any news about TS4 coming with a patch that allows use...
I know that but I am worried that they don't have the stats that they had where they were imported from if they go through CAS. CAS in Full Edit mode tends to reset certain stuff. And then there is still the factor that you are forced to both place a sim AND load that household.
Far more often then not I want to spend some time in the world changing / demolishing / building lots before I decide where to put my sims. If there was an option in a future update to just skip the whole lot all together that would be a huge convenience!
I have noticed it was mentioned in a planned upgrade once, but then it was revoked in the actual update. So I'd thought I'd bring it back under attention.... : )
@AlHollandiyah I have used the method that @RandomBuzziness outlined several times when I brought sims into my current game from an earlier save and when I created a new game. They never lost anything as far as I can tell and I'm almost sure that they gained something in the process. What I noticed was that when I brought them in, they gained things like they knew all of the 27 dishes from CL where they hadn't in the earlier save. It was little things like that. They kept all their skills and traits. I considered that a plus.
I do agree with you though. Why should we have to go through CAS when there are already sims in world when the game is created that we could go and just play? But it is what it is. I just do it, place the sim and then delete them in manage households and move on.
