==Removed LTWs==
Interesting... It seems that Extraordinary Entrepreneur LTW is achieved by earning a certain number of Simoleons by becoming self-employed. The placeholder name in the game file is <code><name>*Make over $n simoleons in your own business</name></code>, which is self explanatory. So there was actually LTW for each career after all, excluding Education.

:Even funnier, there's an LTW named <code><Name>*Have more than $n customers as a maid</Name></code>, which I have no idea how to fulfill in the game. It's more incomplete than other LTWs though, so they might've scrapped it even earlier. It doesn't even have icon itself. It's from ''Ambitions''.

== Zombie Master ==
 
There are two key traits listed for zombie master: witch and evil. Apparently there're more because I picked zombie master with only absent minded, unflirty, inappropriate, & loner (human in supernatural dlc). I hope that others who've picked zombie master will list their traits, so that um, we can update this. [[User:Cholyn|Cholyn]] ([[User talk:Cholyn|talk]]) 18:26, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
:The problem is, we can't tell which trait affects which lifetime wish to appear. There doesn't seem to be a hard-coded list to determine the traits and lifetime wishes. It's even more redundant due to the fact that we can now pick any lifetime wish regardless of traits. You're not even forced to be a witch to complete Zombie Master LTW, since you can fulfill it by using elixirs.

::I've found it. The only key trait for Zombie Master is the Witch hidden trait. Probably your Sim had the hidden trait back then.

==Key traits==
There has been a lot of back-and-forth editing regarding the list of key traits on the list of lifetime wishes. The behavior is ultimately pointless, as the one side keeps overriding the other and stating that their data is correct. So, I would like to see if either side of the issue can give some proof as to the validity of their data. If that proof can't be provided, I think the information should be removed from the page altogether. Nikel23 has stated that the information comes from the game code, whereas Sims2fan1998 has not explained where his/her information originated. I think it would be in everyone's best interest to provide this information rather than continue to edit the page to no constructive end.
 
So, is there any proof one way or the other that the information on the page is/isn't valid? - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 08:06, September 9, 2014 (UTC)
 
[[File:LTW key traits check 1.png|thumb]]
:Using S3PE, open GameplayData.package and look for DreamsAndPromisesNodes.XML. Let's say we want to use "Possession is Nine Tenths of the Law" LTW. The name of the wish in the XML isn't very descriptive and may not match with the in-game descriptions, so you'll have to make a good guess. The <code><PrimaryIcon> w_lifetime_posession_910_ofthelaw</PrimaryIcon></code> is a good indication that it's the right wish we're looking for. Now, copy the <code><Id></code>, because it's what we need.
 
[[File:LTW key traits check 2.png|thumb]]
:Now, go find CAS Major Dream Feeder EP2.DMTR in the GameplayData.package again. There's one for each EP except ''Seasons'' and ''Generations'' since these EPs don't include any LTWs. This resource keeps the dream trees of a wish (what wish will appear after one is fulfilled, what's required for the wish to appear, what number is set for the variables of certain wishes, etc.). Inside the dream tree, search for the wish ID we're looking for with CTRL+F. In this case, we're looking for <code>153251938</code>, which is the ID of the Possession is Nine Tenths of the Law LTW.
 
:There, you can see some tags. <code><FulfillmentScore></code> is how many lifetime happiness reward points Sims will earn for fulfilling the LTW times 10. Inside <code><Traits></code>, <code><SelectedTrait></code> are the key traits that make the LTW appear in the CAS as a suggestion. <code><RequiredTrait>true</RequiredTrait></code> means that the trait is required in order for the LTW to appear; if you don't have the trait, the LTW will not appear. <code><ExcludedTrait>true</ExcludedTrait></code> means that having this trait will cause the LTW not to appear as well. If both of the tags are set to false, it basically means that having more of these traits will make the LTW more likely to appear in the LTW selection on CAS. The <code><RequiredTrait>true</RequiredTrait></code> and <code><ExcludedTrait>true</ExcludedTrait></code> are basically pointless now that you can select any LTWs regardless of traits since ''Late Night''.
 
:There's also <code><InputNumber>50000</InputNumber></code> below, which you can change for the stolen goods worth required to fulfill the LTW. Pretty handy if you want to change the requirement of unachiaveable "Home Design Hotshot" LTW.
 
:And according to the dream tree, "Possession is Nine Tenths of the Law" LTW key traits are Kleptomaniac, Evil, Daredevil, Frugal, Mooch, Mean Spirited, and Rebellious.

== Gold Digger Teen ==
 
So I was messing around and I decided to deliberately make a teenage Sim flunk school to see what would happen and anyway, it seems as a fair bit of time passed, the teen's empty Lifetime Wish box changed on it's own to Gold Digger. Is this noteworthy here?--[[Special:Contributions/101.191.78.67|101.191.78.67]] ([[User talk:101.191.78.67|talk]]) 12:42, March 24, 2016 (UTC)
:Under normal circumstances, it's not possible for a teen Sim to promise an LTW on their own unless the player does it by him/herself.

::ETA: Did you happen to switch household from the teen?

Yes, I actually did change households, but only very quickly to check on some other family I was playing. Story Progression (EA's not a mod like Twallans), was turned on too.--[[Special:Contributions/101.191.78.67|101.191.78.67]] ([[User talk:101.191.78.67|talk]]) 23:47, March 25, 2016 (UTC)
 
 
I should also add that he had traits that would probably encourage that LTW. E.g. Couch Potato.--[[Special:Contributions/101.191.78.67|101.191.78.67]] ([[User talk:101.191.78.67|talk]]) 00:04, March 26, 2016 (UTC)
 
:IIRC, switching households can cause a lot of changes to that household even if it's just briefly. I don't know if it applies if you have to unpause the game or not, but that's what I've heard very often from the forums. Story progression makes it worse, but I think it can happen on its own even without SP being enabled. About the traits, that would be expected though.
