My Sim Teenager My 'Sim' teenager (Bottom) moved in with my Sim man (Puck) after I told him and my Sim lady (Beatrice Monty) to get married. Bottom has got really low grades, in fact, she's an F grade student :(! Does anyone know how I can 'up' her grades to stop the little window coming up which always says "Bottom is one of the worst students in the school "? Also, when I'm playing on TS, my Sims always stand waving their arms in the air and have black things coming out of their heads in 'think' bubbles. What does this mean? i think it means their house is infected with cockroaches,but when I call the exterminator in,there doesn't seem to be a problem!
If Bottom is getting bad grades despite attending school in a good mood (especially with good aspiration level) and doing her homework, then make sure you don't have the aging off. Grades can go down with the aging off, but they won't usually go up as long as aging is turned off. If you turn it on, and they are going to school in a good mood and doing their homework, then each day they will go up a full grade letter. If they skip a day of school, they will drop an entire grade level. If they are not in a good mood when they leave, they may only go up part of a letter grade or if it is a bad mood, it may stay same or go down. So to summarize what is involved in grade improvement: good mood attend school do homework aging on As to your second question, I'm not sure what you mean by "black marks" in the thought bubble. Perhaps you could put up a screen shot of what you mean so that it's easier to tell what you are describing.
You get the painting here http://www.simchaotics.com/ click on MEROLA'S SIMS 2 link it is the 5th icon down
The little black marks you're referring to, I'm sure, are footprints. Which basically means there is something blocking your sim from interacting with something or going where they want.
well if u use the boolprop testingcheatsenabled true then u click ur sim and find the tomestone of life and death so can u can use it 2 make ur sim grow up faster so no homework!
