    Oh also, that lifespan is such a good idea! I've been playing with one of those "1 day is 1 year" mods for a while and I like being able to calculate ages but I feel like it's a bit too fast for me. But the 16 days 1 year mod a lot of people recommend is WAY too slow for me. And, since I play Super Collection on a MacBook, I can't edit a lifespan myself with SimPE. So I finally found a modder who made a "2 days is 1 year" lifespan and I hope it works with a run-through of the Age Correct mod like the other lifespan mod did

    Okay I'm a dang computer noob, I guess. I have base game installed and there's no SP9 at all on there. So does anybody know where I would patch it at? I only have folders for: cameras, collections, config, logs, logcatalog, movies, music, neighborhoods, projects, savedsims, sc4terrains, storytelling, teleport, thumbnails, and a cache file labeled "groups"?

    • @ricekrispi2602

    If anyone's still watching this tutorial in 2024: Use CTRL + H to do "Find & Replace" instead of CTRL + F for "Find" on the Smooth Edges step. Then put in "enumerateMultisampleLevels false" in the Find box and "enumerateMultisampleLevels true" in the Replace box. Then click Replace All. No need to go doing it one by one. Also, mucking around with security permissions on files is a bad habit to get into. Not so dangerous in this case but change the wrong permission on the wrong file and you can lock yourself out of Windows. Instead I recommend right click on Notepad in the Start menu and click "Run as administrator" then find the file by going to "File > Open" in the Notepad menu, rather than finding the file in Explorer first and then trying to open it with Notepad. Then you have the right to save the file from the beginning without needing to muck about with permissions. Although this is only a problem if your game is installed in the Program Files folder.
