Somewhere, Along the Line I Goofed :O

I was busy, yesterday, recreating my ancestral game save families. I started with the Seviers. I grabbed the copy of John Sevier I created with the Demo, years back. From him I created his parents and five of his siblings, since we're limited to eight Sims in CAS. I could have sworn I made sure to set the relationship between the parents, but I was a little tired by then. Obviously, I did not. How do I know? He has the ability to ask her to be his girlfriend, first kiss, propose … So, six children later, the man is finally making her his wife? :open_mouth:

Unbelievable. Obviously, somewhere along the line, I goofed. :*

Please share those moments when you discovered you forgot a step before your actual gameplay began … I hate to think I'm the only one. LOL
  • I always forget to set the relationship to husband and wife and sometimes, interesting things happen if you don't watch MCC settings lol. Right now though I have a vampire and his wife or at least she was his wife. If I check genealogy of connected sims, they don't show up as married. I currently do not have MCC installed in this save. I will have to check their relationship in the next game play. They are not the current rotation but I feel I need to fix them or their relationship.
  • I, too use MCCC. Love that mod. I probably could have saved myself the hassle by just using it to fix relationship on lot, come to think of it. I only just discovered that command existed. There is just so much to this mod, I haven't fully explored it. Thanks for the 'reminder', though. I just went ahead and had the couple 'elope'. Like I said three teens, two children and a toddler later they finally make it legal. Oi!

    Ooh, that just made me think of something else, too. I have it set a certain way, but this time it's not working. To the point that I restarted my ancestral save from scratch, thinking maybe the Sims themselves were corrupted. (That was the cause behind a problem with Road to Fame mod). I could likely, if it doesn't work this go-around, use it to set the relationship. Hm. Thank you for opening up my brain this morning!
  • @Galacticgal I have done the same thing. The created parents were living with their daughter and had to sleep in single beds in the children's rooms. I only noticed my mistake when I built them their own house and the mother refused to sleep in the bed with the father (i had them on roommates only). A quick CAS tweak later and her parents were finally married (before her own wedding). They suddenly started being affectionate and romantic which was how I imagined them and had been worried as they didn't seem to want to even talk before.

    And yes I use MCCC and never even thought to fix relationships.

    Well, that certainly explains why they each sought one of their children's bed, after I'd clicked on them to claim the only double bed on the lot. LOL That really should have been my first clue. D'Oh.
