I wonder why I do? Ah well, at least if others have it too they can fix it as well. I patched my game and it never fixed it.

Would this interfere with Squinge "no duplicate memory" hack? I know it has not been updated since NL but I still use it succesfully.

This shouldn't cause any conflicts with anything that prevents duplicate memories as this is merely a text alteration. With just this hack installed you will still receive the BFF memories as regularly as normal but the text will never say "first BFF".

Um, sorry. I can only speak English and I don't know how to make it compatible with other languages.

Make best friends with a Sim and then keep that relationship level for a few days. Pretty easy really. This may be stating the obvious but you need Free Time installed as well.

Yes. The only requirement is Freetime. Who mentioned Apartment Life?

I have a problem concerning this mod: memories concerning male sims show the corrected text, memories concerning female sims show the original wrong text. Is there a way to fix that?

It's been 15 years since I posted this mod. I no longer have any way to open the files to take a look at them. Nobody else has ever reported this issue in all of that time either. Have you made sure you don't have a conflict with another mod?

I managed to fix the problem. It seems that the German version of 'BFFCorrection' doesn't provide strings for female friends. So I used 'BFFMemoryFix' and filled in my own translation. Now everything works just fine. Sorry for the inconvinence!

No, I'm sorry that I must have missed that when I originally released the mod and nobody in all that time since ever noticed soon enough for me to be able to fix it myself.
