    I know you're a Sims 3 superfan (as it was your first main Sims game) but I've been loving your growing appreciation for the quirks and uniqueness of Sims 2.

    When it comes to finding a method of picking a primary aspiration, I ended up just mashing aspects I like from other people's systems into a calculator I mostly made myself. Mind you that for this, I have the RPC seperating the zodiac from the personality points.
    The way I do it is the sim's zodiac adds 5 points to 2 different aspirations then their personality points modify it the rest of the way. Each aspiration has 3 traits that add points to their category and 1 that subtracts from it. When I have a sim go to college and they stay long enough to get the opportunity to change their aspiration, I use zodiac, personality points, and interests and pick from the 2 highest results.
    I've found that with this, I have a lot more variety in the primary and secondary aspirations my sims have. Fun Fact: with this particular calculator, Nina Caliente came out as a Knowledge sim in my game.

    First time viewing and I love the surprise inclusion of the SSU sims, I did that in my Pleasantview and they added so much to the drama and storyline I am loving it, will just say Daniel and Don are being very very sus. I also love the Lothario sisters, they are awesome.

    Idk if you've done the empty standby task fix, but that helped me immensely. If you have, you might have to manually start it each time before you play. & I keep the task scheduler open, so when I tab out of the game, I can periodically check to see that it is still running. Sometimes it stops running for some reason but its rare.

    I wonder if personality traits affect pregnancy because some of my sims are almost not affected by it but others are constantly tired and hungry and their energy doesn't go up even when they sleep on expensive beds 🤔
    Anyways, thank you for the update, I love your sims 2 videos!

      @@Ali-yp3zg It's because the hair she liked isn't available for every outfit, even through the mirror, that's why when the sim changed outfits, the hair switched to a random one. Via this method I mentioned you can change every piece of CC outfit availability (:
