Splitting money when moving

Another workaround is to pretend like you're moving all the sims, so they have their full budget available; choose the new lot; then move all the sims you want to stay in the current house back to the left side of the window. The game will split the leftover cash equitably (in its estimation) among ...

Cluttered Consignment Store

Does it help to delete the lot, save, quit, delete the cache files, reload, and only then replace it, perhaps with an MC reset in between? I would also suggest trying to purge whatever is on sale at the moment in the way I described earlier. If you have items not in inventory you want to preserve, f...

Cooking glitch for just one sim

Do you use Relativity, and has this sim made enough meals to become a "World Class Chef"? I think that's the one where after 75 meals made, sims cook significantly faster. Or is this sim a Perfectionist? What I'm wondering is whether it's possible that with a certain Relativity setting, the game can...

I'm getting random name a book pop up despite not writing any books?

StoryProgression can allow you to choose book titles for inactive sims. The setting is here: NRaas > SP > General Options > Options: Skills > Prompt to Title Written Books You'd need the SP Skill add-on to see it, and it's off by default, but perhaps you enabled it at some point. I don't know of ano...

Sim glitches when trying to write

The 50/50 method is much faster: https://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Finding_Problem_Custom_Content#The_50.25_Method But keep in mind you may have more than one broken file; just because you find the first one doesn't mean everything else is fine. So make sure that every file tests clea...

Carpools (more than 8 sims)

I've had problems when using Add Sim, which cleared up with a DE Fix Homeworld command. So I wold suggest trying that.

Carpools (more than 8 sims)

I haven't noticed this either, and I've at least played children in overstuffed households who do get the school carpool. How are you adding these sims to your active household, and does it help to run a DebugEnabler Fix Homeworld on them afterwards? Do any opportunities at all work? You can assign ...

Sim glitches when trying to write

Absolutely do not download any .dll file from a random website. That is an excellent way to get a virus. Even if you did need to replace a .dll manually, you'd do so by reinstalling the program it belongs to, and you'd download the program from a first-party source; it usually wouldn't help to simpl...

Inheritance Notification

I can't fix it and don't know whether that's possible, but at the very least, you should be able to see the size of the inheritance in the household's SP accounting. Click on the house itself or its map tag and select NRaas > SP > Household Options > Accounting, then look for something labeled Inher...

Sim glitches when trying to write

The standard way to change the location is to keep OneDrive running but elect not to sync Documents anymore, confirm that Documents hs moved back to Users > your username > Documents (no OneDrive in the file path), and only then remove OneDrive if necessary. If OneDrive is running at all, I would hi...
