The Sims 3 Immortal Dynasty Challenge

Yeah go ahead and go back.

Yeah go ahead and go back.

Thanks, they were only there a day so I didn't lose too much.

I'm having no luck with this file. I made it back from France but now the only family relationships are husband and wife it doesn't show that they had any children. The family tree and relationship panel doesn't show any relations between parents and children or siblings. I do have a previous save where the relationships are intact, is it ok to go back or is it not a game breaker.

[Ricalynn]

This is just one of those glitches you can get with travel.  It's not game breaking just as long as you maintain the family line - you should be fine.

So...another question. Real quick. When you have a best friend from the beginning of the game turn into an old friend, does it still count towards the best friend count? Is it just how high the relationship bar is with the person/car/pet/thing?  Thanks

[bubbles]

If the relationship is still in the 'best friends' area, they still count. If they are dropping back to the friends/acquaintances zone, they no longer count unless you restore the relationship to best friend level. It is really just the length of the bar that counts.

I hope this is clear enough.

To add on:

So when a husband and wife have the married symbol and it does not actually say best friend the same applies?

Thank you.

[Ricalynn]

Yes it works the same.  You can only count someone if the relationship bar is completely maxed basically.

[RainBeau]

Vehicles are different though. BFF is much shorter for them.

Ok thanks, I didn't really want to go back much more happened this time around. I was wondering why my founder's step-son all of the sudden was trying to flirt with her when I checked the tree and realized what happened.

Yes it is. Thanks I was always unsure about that. So as soon as they eat ambrosia, they can let those relationships slack a bit? That's always my weak point in the dynasties: making friends. So time-consuming. 

[Ricalynn]

Absolutely.

If you have Supernatural, there's an elixir that makes an instant max bar best friend.

Question: The consigment store in my ID file is featuring a glitch (it's never open, and it's been a couple of days and it hasn't been able to fix itself). I don't know the name of the clerk, so I dunno if I can just reset him or not. But I hear just removing the existing consignment store and replacing it with another will do the trick, but that involves me going into Edit Town mode. Am I allowed to do that cause of the situation, or...?

[Ricalynn]

Does your family have the money to purchase the consignment shop as a property?  Have you tried resetSim * to clear the town?
