@egwarhammer - @MadameButerfly updated all those pretty early on. Let her know about the milk one! It might be a GTW-specific conflict.
I did mention it on her MTS page.
Having another problem now, I added 7 of Shimrod's mods to the six I had, and now my bin is coughing up TONS of sims with one less trait than they should have. (AskForLoanHidden, AspirationRewardsHalfCost, ChangeOutfitInactives, FewerElders, LessFrequentNPCPushups, LessMusicalChairs and LessWavingGoodby.)
I've deleted more than I've kept from today's "offerings." What gives? Can't fix them in-game without cheating, I'd rather just dump 'em and hope the next round is better... but today, it has been Very Bad.
No exception errors since yesterday. I'd almost say things are fine, EXCEPT for all the missing traits my new townies are showing up with(out), today.
Which mod would affect that? I can't figure it out.
Do you have any traits mods? They are mostly all broken since last patch. Also do you have mods that affect townies at all?
I don't think so... I had six in for most of the day, these:

After I put the coffee mod in (and took out the milk mod because non-python-savvy me thought it might have caused an exception file to generate), I wasn't having too many problems. (GTW adds "medicinal" to some drinks, has me wondering if that may have borked the milk mod... I haven't even tried Madame Butterfly's tea or OJ mods, but coffee hasn't been changed AFAIK so I'm thankful that mod still seems to be working.)
So I went for some of Shimrod's mods. http://modthesims.info/member.php?u=3066089

These are still in, giving me a whopping TEN total installed mods ATM. Then I took a nap. Back now for updates and more tests, yay.
I HAD Fewer Elders, Change Outfits of Inactives, and Less NPC pushups also installed for a while, but when I had all 13 mods in, those busted-trait sims swamped my bin. All ages, too, before today all I'd seen had been occasional teens missing traits. Today it was happening to librarians, I deleted at least 3 I know of... and I even had an elder with 2 traits only!
Where do bin sims come from? How are they generated? If they're being pulled in from the gallery, it could be custom traits not showing up for me since I have NONE of those, and never have. It makes about as much sense as most of this damn game does...
I would be perfectly happy with randomly-generated sims created by my own fresh game, as long as they come in with all their traits intact. It IS a little annoying to see a squeamish clumsy sim assigned DOCTOR job... but since work-selection isn't exactly working right either yet, he'll probably quit that and be an athlete or criminal next time I see him, anyway, huh? LOL
I took out the 3 mods I did because they were older. I REALLY don't want to lose my "base 10" because I tried playing without any mods and I couldn't get much done. But I want as few files dated before GTW to be involved as possible, and I don't want anything coming in that's trying to use things I don't have included.
So of these 13... which is scragging my bin?
