Default Alternative to twallans portrait panel?
Long story short, I'm using awesomemod to allow more than 8 sims in a house. My sim just gave birth to triplets, taking my total to 9 sims (and 5 cats, if that makes a difference).

Now her spouse is missing from the portrait panel, it just shows my founder, the 7 kids and the 5 cats. I can still select him by spacebar'ing through until i get to him, but I'd like him back on the portrait panel.

I googled it and found twallans portrait panel, but apparently it conflicts with awesomemod? Is this true? If it is, is there another mod that will make all the portraits appear again, or will I have to deal with spacebar'ing through?

It shouldn't conflict I've been using it w/ AwesomeMod for a long time.

Twallan was careful to make sure his mods played nicely with Awesome, and Pescado handled the one major conflict by having AM shut off the Awesome story driver if you have Twallan's Story progression in your game (on the theory that if it's there, you wanted to use it.)

It used to conflict a year or two ago (or maybe more, I can't remember), because AwesomeMod used to include the same feature in a slightly different way. But then AwesomeMod changed, thanks to a patch, and Pescado decided that since Twallan had made a non-core mod for it then everyone could just use that - and there would be less in AM to check every time a patch appeared. So that's probably why you thought they wouldn't work together - someone found some out-of-date info.

Twallan, by the way, made a list on his site of how all of his mods work with Awesome. So if you're not sure, check that. The link is here.

Ah, thanks! That's actually really helpful; I only have a very VERY basic understanding of how modding works (by basic I mean kindergarten level ) so that page is definitely useful!
