Yeah, I do have to say I keep my mods and cc to a bare minimum. I use MCCC and Road to Fame, Khitsule's Pointy Ears and that's pretty much it. I do have roBurky's Meaningful Stories in place at the moment, but it worked just fine with the others. At least, it knows how to place nice. LOL The only thing that wasn't quite working well was that other mod. This after I removed the latest installed mods, one at a time, to see which one was the culprit. I had a total of five mods, maximum. (Compared to the 20+ NRaas, Industries mods I needed just to stabilize Sims3).
Unfortunately, I didn't get too far into gameplay this morning, before that creepy trait showed up. I was attempting to set the Road to Fame mod, as it allows you to enable or disable certain aspects of it. I can turn off, for instance, Erik's reaction to other celebrities. I know that totally bugs some players. Sounds as if Sacrificial has given that some heed and made a way for us to turn it off. Some of the interactions are a bit obscure. I'm guessing English isn't his first language. I'm thinking I'm allowing something, only to discover when I check his traits, that I've inadvertently excluded Erik from what I wanted for him. Face/palm. It was in doing this check that I saw the dreaded Reaper's Scythe. Before I scrap this game save I will cheat him up just to see if he can hold a live concert, being a teen. If he can I will have to realize whatever the trait may mean, it's not necessarily a bad thing as I suspected. If he can't, I'll throw out the save entirely, start another brand new save using the lone Erik to create his parents, and from there create his siblings from their parents. I may just see what happens before I do all of that, if I adjust the RTF interactions on a sibling or two, just for fun. That might tell me a great deal.
