I know I've said it before, but Tamara's so pretty. :) She would be a good vampire, but of course I'm biased and don't want her to lose the hair I retextured if she becomes a plantsim. :P
Ah, good thinking with the pre-AL-apartments, I'll make a note to try that out in my game when I eventually pick a neighbourhood to add a downtown to.
I love the housewarming party shot, it really looks like Tamara is the centre of attention and having a great time. :D
Probably a silly question, but have you checked that it's Tamara and not the computer or the lot that's causing the jobs glitch? Can Kyoshi get a job, and have you tried Tamara with a different computer?
It does look like fun! I'm looking forward to playing it through. It will also be quite challenging, because vampires and bugs (like aliens) know when you want them and resolutely stay away.
Tamara is indeed a very pretty Sim. She has good genetic material to work with, of course, and it's a flattering hairstyle. I'm thinking that she'd be more inclined towards vampirism, but we'll have to see how things play out.
Well, since I can't have AL, I have to find SOME way around the problem. And this is something the community has wanted from the beginning, so there are many workarounds to choose from. Locking the door works great for now; for later, if needed, I have Inge Jones's colored key system which seems to have the least amount of changes needed to work. (Although it's still a pretty meaty hack...)
Tamara and Kyoshi were both having a good time at the party, although it dropped from Good Time to Snoozer with 30 seconds left on the clock and I couldn't figure out why. The guests were all Kyoshi's friends, but Tamara is very Outgoing (9 or 10 points, I think) and loved meeting them all. The two bolts with the guy she went on a date with didn't hurt either. ;)
Tamara did have the problem on a different lot, with a different computer. I did some troubleshooting after writing this chapter, and the problem is actually Tamara's shirt. If I tell her to get a job while she's wearing it, the game crashes. If I tell her to get a job when she's wearing something else, boom, she's employed. I don't know whether to pull the shirt entirely or to simply change her clothes before she looks for a job. Kyoshi came with a very good job already (Celebrity Chef!), so I don't want to have him start over again at the bottom of the ladder.
