The Sims 3 Life States Dynasty Challenge

@laurela: It's a known bug with combined rabbitholes. I'm kind of busy right now (as I was yesterday. The job hunt is fun!), but I'll get an answer to you later today.

@Trip
Okay, thank you for your reply! I hope you're really having fun with your job hunt! 

EDIT: Just wanna make sure, the Immortal LTR for vampires is okay for the requirement as long as it is the last one right?

@laurela: Here's a non-answer. Mostly something interesting I found while searching the thread.

Was one of the awards the Key to the City? I found a few posts from 2013 that might offer a workaround. I linked to the first one, and a few more down, @Niana found a solution that worked for her in the same town.

Granted, there had been patches by then, so take it with a pinch of salt too. But it's worth a try? If you still can't get the reward...I'm still trying to find our answer to that.

@Trip
I'm not quite sure if it was the key to the city, as it just said 'Collect Service Reward', but I'll try and see if anything happens.

(I also edited my earlier post, asking about something)

EDIT: I tried what you linked to me, but sadly nothing happened.

[Trip]

Dang. I'll see what I can come up with in the morning.

@laurela: And three days later...(oh how I wish there was a "search thread" feature)

Seems like you just have to accept the lost reward. What else could your sim do? Do they have any other eligible rewards already? They could always try picking up another career as a last resort. Nothing says your rewards have to come from the same career.

@Trip yeah, I wish there was a search thread feature, too.

It's okay. I haven't gotten to play yet, as I'm on vacation. I'll just have her learn another skill (she's a vamp anyway so....) and I'll have her switch careers. Thanks again!

[Trip]

@laurela: Have fun and good luck!

[laurela]

Boy, I sure do have a lot of questions and problems. Does an heir and their significant other necessarily have to get married? My IF heir can't seem to get married to Navita Singh (Navita cheated on her husband). I've done pretty much every romantic interaction but the 'Propose Marriage' thing won't pop up. Both of them are currently in their sim form.

[Trip]

Are they in the same household? If not, is either household otherwise full?

Did she break up with Param the "usual way" (i.e. saying it to his face ), or through a text message? I know the latter...has its bugs.

@Trip
Yes, they are currently in the same househould and neither household is full.

I think she broke up with him with through text because usually when I breakup through text, the relationship is all the way down the red area. Also, she had a romantic interest (One of my spares  ) which I also had to break off.

[Trip]

Yeah, I think that might have messed things up for you. Maybe you can get a Jar of Potent Friendship, wait for breakup/betrayal moodlets to run out (or blast everyone involved with a Moodlet Manager, if you have it), and set them back up again just to break them up the old-fashioned way? Or is there anyone who's maxed out social networking enough to set up relationships, and could set up them again for a breakup?

[laurela]

@Trip

I'll try to do both of your suggestions since I do have both a moodlet manager and someone with max social networking. I'll let you know if any of them work. If not, is it still permissible for them not to get married to bring in the next heir?

[Trip]

@laurela: There is no requirement for them to be married to make an heir. Living together, but in whatever arrangement suits you. You too can fill your dynasty with sin!

[laurela]

@Trip yay, great! I just wanted to get them married so I could pop the wish, but either way will be fine. Thank you again!

@Trip
Does the 'Free Game'  opp for children complete immediately after you attend the game? My child got it but the game is on Sat/Sun and she ages up on Sunday so she might not be able to complete it if she still has to go to school. Also, is it okay to count the Ballet Recital Opp as complete if the game doesn't let you finish it? (combined building bug won't let me finish it) Thanks!
