Sitting Here Wondering …
I am very dependent on two separate mods and the only cc I have in my game for the one save I've got going at the moment. I was wondering what everyone else is planning to do in the interim, between the Mod-Busting patch set to drop today, and the time it takes (if necessary) for the creators of the mods you depend on to update them?
I may attempt for the umpteenth time to restart my Ancestral game save. I've played my Cantrell family exclusively since we got GF. Admittedly, it was an old save, as I started the family from scratch, using a Sim I made for Erik Cantrell (my singer Sim of choice in Sims3). But, I didn't keep him. I used him to create his parents and then all five of their children were born in game. I wanted to make use of the Values system. Erik was a teen with level 10 singing ability and not far behind in his guitar skills. Then I set it aside to play my ancestral save.
Until GF came out, that is. It was my intention, using MCCC and an earlier version of RTF to create a singer career, more or less, on my own. Once I learned of GF I dropped RTF figuring I wouldn't need it anymore. Afterwards I learned it, too, had been upgraded to augment GF with a singing career! I was one very happy camper. But, then I returned my Mods folder prematurely and that's when things went from bad to worse. (The bright shining moment was discovering there was an upgraded RTF out already.) I installed it readily, but things just weren't functioning as they should.
Turns out not only was the old game save corrupted (as I discovered after the StrangerVille patch dropped), but Erik as well. Face/palm. I have spent all of this time on a brand new game save and a fresh copy of him (starting as a teen) to get him back to his Global Superstar status. So, you know I'm going to be very cautious this time around. I will pull my Mods folder, but without MCCC and RTF, I don't dare play my Global Superstar.
I am curious to know what your post-patch plans are. :)
