more romance. a one night stand is easier to get than marriage :p
romance enough and you'll eventually be able to ask her to go steady and later marry.

Recipe for Ambrosia requires deathfish and lifefruit. Where do you get the deathfish from? Fishing at the graveyard at night? And while we're at it.... Any idea where to get the flamefruit from?

Yeah you can trigger the next phase of life prematurely if you blow on the candles.

It's in the Friendly menu. Just keep talking with her, then suggest to move in with her. Then you can choose where to move and what to do with the old house and furniture.

In case noone figured it out yet, to get Deathfish, you have to fish at the graveyard, with Angelfish, after 00:00. When you see smoke above the water and Grim Reaper looking fish in the water, you'll catch some Deathfish.

No that part is referring to the store-bought version having only one half of the original game town unlocked:
"the finished product is set up to only play half the neighborhood. To unlock the other half, you need to actually register your product (EDIT: Register it online.) Once you register your product, the game unlocks everything and you have access to the Sims 3 Store to get things like Riverview." (<= user quote, so that's not necessarily true - but Riverview is indeed for everyone).
The second town, Riverview, is free for everyone who registers.

Sorry Baleur, but inz is right here --- the second town, Riverview, is available to everyone. You can even see the download on the Sims 3 Store, it just isn't active yet.

You know, I think why this worked. When you change the drivers, it sets settings back to default. Tested with "Hide objects on different floors" and with this enabled, I think it makes everything stuttery. So could be that...

HOLY SHIT!
Moose, you're a damned genius! I just put Cat AI to "standard" as well and while the stutter is still there, it's massively diluted! Now it's actual stutter rather than frame-rate drops!
Cat AI - Advanced: framerate dropped to 30s when panning around the map and house.
Cat AI - Standard: framerate never drops below 55-60, still stays up in its high 80s, with mild stutter.
I'm still on Cat 9.4s, but I'm going to uninstall and upgrade to 9.5s today. Will let you know. Oh and I don't have the "Hide objects" thing enabled .. I like seeing objects everwhere, like light fixtures from the ceiling.

Its probably swings and roundabouts the cat AI thing but its often worth trying it in standard or off i find if a game is not up to par as it should be and youve only been playing it with full advanced AI settings.
What is nice as well is I have 2 screens here and it runs well also in window mode and the self sizing works really well also. Can troll forums , model in softimage, have other apps open being constructive and just play sims in a tiny window as well hehe works out really good.

Catalyst AI is actually supposed to enhance performance on your system. Can't say I've ever noticed a difference though. Just make sure to keep it enabled if you have a Crossfire setup; disabling Catalyst AI with crossfire( or a X2 card ) effectively disables the second card.
