That should definitely work.

Thanks, I just started using the Master Controller.
I heard teens with the rebellious trait will be able to get tattoos in generations, so that will help for now.

@FavoleKS : Give the guy a chance LOL

I am having the same issue with the Extended game core mod, it works in generations, but prevents other parts of the game from running correctly, EG, the options menu flashes up and vanishes when you try and use it, it won't allow you to change a sims eyes, or set their traits in CAS...

Whilst all of these things are frustrating, these guys spend their free time making these mods for nothing, Gen has been out less than five days, even if they started updating a mod right away, these things take time

Okay already, it's updated. Taking a little while for the upload to show up, but it should be there soon.

And thanks, Ace, actually the expansion came out only yesterday here in the US. Luckily the meeting I was supposed to go to today was cancelled so I took off work to do this - MUCH more fun!

You may want to update the link you have in the Overview to point to the new MasterController thread.

Fabulous, checking it out now

Is there anyway that either I can use another mod with this similar to the ones made for the ECG that gives the extra sliders for waist, calf, thighs, chest, breast scales, vertical postion's etc... or is there another alternative that will work along side this mod?

If you mean does this increase the number of sliders you can use, yes it does. You can use all those sliders with this mod.
Instructor
#110 Old 2nd Jun 2011 at 8:49 AM
No, well, yes, that was partially what I meant.

Infact I answered my own question, I was and have been for quite some time, under the impression that you needed the ECG to use delphy's breast sliders, and as I have recently found out, you don't. Only if you want more sliders 'after' those ones.

DOH me lol

But that's good to know, as I like to use the other body sliders that adjust waist and leg/calf etc...

Again, fabulous work on this, the tats work perfectly Muchos Thankos

It's certainly possible - the mod increases the code that has to be loaded, not by much, but it's an increase. Probably more important, all mods will slow the game a little because it has to open each package and load the contents. If you have a lot of mods with a lot of packages this can have a substantial effect. If it's a problem, combining packages may help.

I have to ask the obvious question: are you sure you replaced cmar_XCAS_core.package with the new version? It looks like your game is still finding the old package. If you did replace it, try deleting your cache files before starting the game again. (In your "Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3" folder, the four .package files with names ending in Cache.)

This appears to be because Custom Launcher hasn't yet been updated to recognize the game version for the Generations patch. Glad you got it working!

Unfortunately the way generations stores the game core version number changed in a way that broke the custom launcher.

I have been waiting for this weekend to dig into it to see what changed and find out how hard it will be to resolve. For those of you using custom launcher, expect a new version by Monday or so.

Cmar, your mod keeps giving the EA incompatibility error. I have isolated the problem file down to either the core package or the locations package.

Edit - My apologies, I didn't patch! Although I thought installing Generations auto patched the game.

It would be the core package - locations is just CASPs. Please open the core package in s3pe, select the S3SA file, and in the section on the right look for GameVersion. If that's 0.2.0.151 you've got the right core package for base game 1.22, which of course you can check in the launcher. If both match and you're getting the error something strange is going on.

For some reason my game didn't patch when I installed Generations. It's all good now.

Maybe the same thing happened as for me? When I installed Generations it patched the base game to 1.21, then the Launcher patched me to 1.22 when I ran the game.
