Which SP is "safe"?
 
I vaguely remember someone posting somewhere...

That one of the post-SecuROM stuff packs, if installed into a game which already has Seasons, will just let you use the disk for Seasons instead of the SecuROM contaminated stuff pack disk.

Anybody know which one it was?

My local EB has Teen Stuff and H&M Stuff in stock.

H&M was between Seasons and Bon Voyage. Teen stuff was between Bon Voyage and Free Time.

My experience is that after Seasons was released, the game no longer asks for the SP CDs, it asks for the lastest EP CD you have installed. As I understand it, Teen Stuff was the 1st SP with SecuRom on it, but I may be wrong on that.

I've got all the EPs and SPs through Free Time installed and have had no problem with the things people report about SecurROM.

So it's an artistic decision between the two of them...

Any comments on that?

(Like which one recolors nicer? Has more usefull stuff?)

Actually, it depends on how you play. Both are mostly clothes, with Teen being exclusively for teens. So if you like to dress your teens alot, then maybe Teen is the better one for you. Personnally, the way I play, I rarely change the default clothes on Teens and even then it's usually undies which I tend to go for cc rather than the Maxi stuff. H&M has clothes for all ages, some of which are nice modern styles that I actually see people wearing.

The H&M build & object stuff is pretty much exclusively related to the stuff needed to build H&M stores so it's kinda limited in what you can do with it. The Teen build stuff is nothing really much - mostly stuff you would find in a teenager's bedroom - phone, bed, etc. Nothing that's a gotta have, so to speak.

Even though I've bought all the SPs, none of them except Glamour have had stuff I really use much so it I had it to do over again, I'd probably skip several of them. IKEA appears to have more of the items that I'll actually use in game since that's more furniture oriented. I've bought it but haven't installed it yet so I might be a bit premature on what I think is really there.
