I swear I've spent more time figuring out which hacks are causing a mess with my game than actually playing. It is a bit irritating, because this is the first time I've had an EP as soon as it came out. When Seasons came out, I waited three months to install it because it wasn't sold anywhere (I installed it on May and I started my legacy soon afterwards. Yeah, I was waiting for Seasons to start the Brokes), so by then everything was updated, including SimPe and a patch from Maxis. With BV... well... I never got it.
But for Free Time, between the zillion bugs people keep reporting and a couple of annoyances I've seen in my game, I really can't tell for now what's caused by a hack or not. I just fixed an incredibly annoying bug that prevented my sims from going to community lots and everything is pointing to Macrostatics, which have always been a problem in my game for some odd reason. I try to install it every time an EP comes out, and I get a million jump bugs and oddities.
I guess my computer is not "awesome" enough to handle some MATY's hacks :).
Anyway, I've been dying to try Free Time with the Brokes, so this is a series of pictures of what I did as soon as I loaded them for the first time in weeks. I just wanted to show you how I upgraded my sims with the help of the FFSLot Debugger and gave them a "Predestined Hobby" that matched their interests according to my story.
I hope this sort of tutorial is useful for those who are playing their legacies/neighborhood/challenges following a storyline.
