Is that so? I need to check my mods then :o Because it has been doing that for long time.

If testing cheats gives an error, might be a good idea to take a note of it and see if anyone recognizes it on the forum.
Maybe you could try in a vanilla testing hood and see if you get the error - then trying the 50/50 method (although I suggest first to check your plantsims related mods first and, maybe, the toilets/babypot ones too?).

One sim's social can be boosted simply by sleeping next to another sim. Emma came home with her social all the way down. I sent her to bed and the next morning it was mid-yellow, I'm assuming from spooning with her husband all night.

I think it's fair to assume that since that's the first and most important boolprop cheat most people learn, I think. And to my knowledge it's the only one that brings up error popup messages.

Yup, i meant that Boolprop cheat. I need to try the 50/50 method some time; it thankfully doesn't bother me that much

That the cinematic for aging up doesn't play nice with the aging to YA that Squinge's college pack does. I usually have cinematics turned off but decided to pop them back on as I poked at main hood Strangetown. During Johnny Smith's birthday party, I sent him to the cake to age up. I forgot that with the college pack he would age up to YA even if a regular cake is used (I usually stick to the modded one that's included). The camera popped into cinematic mode and the music played, but rather than do all the posing he was meant to do, Johnny just calmly picked up a piece of cake and walked off. The camera remained stuck until the cutscene should have ended, while all the sims were off doing their thing. This just reminds me of why I keep them off in the first place!

I like the cinematics but I swear that sometimes the camera goes out of the way to just give me a view of a nearby wall.

There's a cinematic for every age transition under the right circumstances (I think you need a birthday party and then have them age up with the cake)
Not that I've seen them in years, it bothers me to no end that they age up wearing random clothes, that kinda ruins the cinematic for me completely.

The only aging cinematic I regularly see is the entering college cinematic, and usually they age up into something terrible, or worse, their new outfit glitches out and makes their body invisible for the rest of the cinematic. However, one time my teen sim aged up into the YA version of his teen outfit and the cinematic was pretty much perfect.

Default Just discovered how to make multi-house lots.
I've been working on a huge project for a while. I made a huge multi house lot with eight houses using the myme doors, When I got done, I changed the lot zoning to dorm. Not only does it prevent YA's aging up when they are on residential lots, it's free housing too. Then I moved in 8 sims, claimed their doors, locked them for all but the assigned sims. The adults can claim doors too when moved in. I made a central community area with a mini nightclub dance floor and two other hangout buildings.
The sims being assigned to their own houses worked like a charm. the whole lot works perfectly with no errors, glitches, or corruption issues. What other secrets does sims 2 hold? I will just have to play more and see.

Dorms only can be used in Uni, can't they? Because dorms don't show up in the regular house bin in the main neighborhood, or so I thought.

The lot will only be available in uni if you save it as a dorm and put it in your lots and houses bin. To prevent that, Keep the lot as residential when moving to lots and houses, Then when you put your lot back in the neighborhood, go into build mode, bring up the cheat box, then type "changeLotZoning dorm" (without the quotes.) Enter it, then save your lot and exit to the neighborhood. You will see the change from for sale (residential) to space available (dorm). Be warned, Once you finish building your lot and save it as a dorm, You won't be able to build onto it, only redecorate walls, floors, and gardens. Buy mode is still available. The only way to enable build mode on a finished dorm is to use the cheat
"boolProp dormSpecificToolsDisabled false" (without the quotes) but I haven't tried that cheat. I just usually finish building my lot, save it, put it in lot and houses, put it back in the neighborhood then change it over to dorm.

Toddlers can steal bottles from one another. I've seen in it the trailers but I thought it was something they'd left out of the actual game. It was adorable the way the would-be thief fell over backwards!

I was always sad that a couple couldn't cuddle on the couch while watching TV together. Yesterday I found out that they could! It made me so happy.

It's the way to start a life of dislike for each other. As is this: a toddler is very unhappy, I direct another toddler to huggle them, toddler 1 refuses; both get negative reactions.

Stand up, speak out. Just not to me..

These two didn't seem to have any hard feelings and spent the next couple of hours huggling.

But I have another pair who spent an afternoon alternately asking for a huggle and being refused, then being asked and refusing!

If you turn off the HUI when saving a camera position (Ctrl + 5-9), you can return to the marked sport only when in tab mode or HUI turned off (Shift + 5-9).

I was totally surprised by one outcome of a telescope abduction: the abductee came back, not pregnant, but transformed into a warlock! That was one special telescope, I guess!
