I suppose that it would be important to first tell you all that yes, I did install the EP and my game is fully patched. I heard that there were supposed to be new traits introduced with this EP - equestrian, dog person, cat person, and animal lover. In my game, however, none of these four traits are showing up. None of the pet traits are there either. Instead, pets are given the exact same list of traits to choose from as Sims. I've enjoyed myself making animals that were great kissers, computer whizzes, have commitment issues, are born salespeople, and dislike children, but I'm somewhat concerned. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

You use any mods for hidden traits? I've had this happen when I used one for that, and installed a new expansion.

No, that's not supposed to happen.

Sounds like a mod issue. Any gameplay mod/hack MUST be removed before installing a patch or EP, and not replaced till it's updated. http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php..._Custom_Content There may be a few that still work, but they are much more likely not to work and could completely break your save.

If you don't have any mods/CC installed, I apologize, and instead send you directly to the Help forum: http://www.modthesims.info/forumdisplay.php?f=551
