Will you be able to include the ability to make babies in an over 8 Sim household, or is it not possible to do?

Follow the steps in my description. There's a few reasons why it might not be working for you.

It is possible to do. I did it myself.

I used this tool to extract a lot of .xml files:
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...5#startcomments

Following the instructions there you end up in a lot of folders. In the tun folder you will find the file:
S4_03B33DDF_00000000_A73068C2B552CB25.xml

It contains the value you need to change. Change MAXIMUM_SIZE">8< to MAXIMUM_SIZE">16<
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?><M n="sims.household" s="12047244188691122981"><C n="Household"><T n="MAXIMUM_SIZE">8</T><T n="SIM_SPAWN_RADIUS">2</T></C></M>
Make a new .package that you put in tbe Mods folder.

Somewhere on this site there is a download named maximum_size_25.package but I can't find it.

Maybe the auther of Full House Mod could include this xml mod to it.

It'd be nice if you could move in Sims the old fashioned way, through the split/merge option. But that would be an entirely different mod I'd assume.
@Morphar I ended up editing that file and making it for myself, so far it seems to be working.

With "it" do you mean this mod? That is an EA issue not caused by this mod.

Nice work. I would add this in but it looks like someone already uploaded it as a separate mod... simple enough so I'll leave them as two pieces. Considering going beyond 9 sims still makes the Manage Household menu crashable, probably best to leave the babies as an optional add-on.

I really don't get it. The mod shows up in the mod list, so it is installed. But when I type tm.fullhouse <firstname> <lastname> nothing happens.
I wanted to add this girl named Layla Antoinette, so I tried
tm.fullhouse Layla Antoinette
tm.fullhouse <Layla> <Antoinette>
tm.fullhouse Layla Antoinette True
tm.fullhouse <Layla> <Antoinette> true
tm.fullhouse <firstname> <lastname>

Am I doing something wrong or isn't it working?
I also can't create more than 8 sims in CAS, but idk if that's normal.
Can somebody please help me?

You have seen too much. Just put the .zip file in Mods.

Python is the readable script language. When compiled and optimized it will be a .pyo.
.py: This is normally the input source code that you've written.
.pyc: This is the compiled bytecode. If you import a module, python will build a *.pyc file that contains the bytecode to make importing it again later easier (and faster).
.pyo: This is a *.pyc file that was created while optimizations (-O) was on.
.pyd: This is basically a windows dll file.

My experiment with experimental version:

I used the Maxsims25 mod and four couples to produce a full house with 25 sims.
I then used this mod to split the houshold into four families
I first moved in a "joker" in an emty lot and then used the commands in this mod to move them there. You can't move the new houshold untill you have reduced the big houshold to less than 10 sims. If any lot contains more than 9 sims the game will crash. It's the houshold manager (where you can see all families) that crashes.

It's a pity that we have not found the limitation in the houshold manager.

Great mod but the experimental mod is not working at all but the first one (only can go up to 9 sims) works. Is the experimental one not working for anyone else?

I use it this way:
tm.fullhouse Layla Antoinette
tm.fullhouse layla antoinette

Have you enabled script mods in the game options?
Can you move a sim to a lot with less than 8 sims?

Possibly idiotic question, but does the deletesim function delete the sim from the household, or from the game entirely?

When will the mod stop crashing with more than 10 sims in a household?
