Thanks so much for this! To be honest, I'd never noticed that opportunities weren't appearing from phone calls but I DID notice that my Sims were constantly rejecting phone calls that they answered for some reason. Thank you!

Last time when i played TS3 i installed just as far as seasons and thus i got the opportunities by default. But now since i installed everything, including into the future, then as i understand i will run into this problem. I like opportunities as well. It's a nice addition to the game, such as fixing a television, cook your best meal, bring books to the school, etc. I've would definitely missed it. So thanks for this fix.

Thank you SO much for this! I purchased ITF a couple months ago, but didn't get it installed until a few days ago. I slowly began to realize that outside of date requests, my sim was getting zero calls. I looked everywhere for a solution, but didn't even dream that it was the expansion causing the problem. I am so glad that there are folks out there doing great work to fix what EA will likely never fix, as they've moved on to TS4. Thank you!

Is this mod patched to 1.69 and does it conflict with Nraas MC? Cause I only have NRaas mods and this mod and for some reason, my sims are only able to receive University opportunities and I can only force Uni opportunities with Nraas. I'm seeking help on Nraas as well, but they've never heard of that glitch. (ETA - I also only receive Uni opportunities calls too. My sims are in Riverview, not University).

I will be testing this mod with NRaas over the next few days and will post back how it goes for me and what I find out.

The mod seems to function and work with NRaas but if you become a Celebrity all the opportunities seem to focus and go towards this and if you're not celebrity it was going towards my profession it seemed.
I will test some more and not have a job or profession and won't be a celebrity and see how it does.


edit: works fine for me after much testing

Can you specify your problem more? What kind of opportunities are you getting? What opportunities are you trying to force with MC? Where's your Sim, and what's his status (career, skill, celebrity)? Do you have any mods that may probably be related to this?

Just FYI, I've had MC forever and I've never encountered any problem with these mods together.

Just call me Nikel

I think this will conflict with a fix to the Laserharp opportunities that Chain_Reaction posted a while ago at NRaas, because it edits the same resource.
I can merge these two fixes myself, but maybe you'd want to include that fix in your version, too?
(As far as I remember the problem is that the LaserHarp has the same challenge like for guitar, i.e., play at 10 different opportunities to receive a rise in future tips, but it seems to be broken for Laserharp in the xml file.)

Thank you for this mod! I have been playing and not really realised that I wasn't getting many opportunity calls! It's only now as I'm playing a gardener sim, that I have noticed these are just not coming through! Thanks again! :D

This mod conflicts with More or Less Gigs for Bands and Music Opportunities for your Sims (Late Night) - 1.63 - 1.67
by NonaMena, this is sad, because I have the late night expansion pack and I don't ever receive calls with opportunities for a gig.
