Booking honeymoon in BV is seriously borked

I tried nuking the second party.  It does work, and prevents the horrible party memory, but it doesn't bring the honeymoon shuttle.


Right.  If you nuke the party, you have to re-order the holiday, in my experience.

I find that if I have a bubble blower, a cake, the wedding arch, and do a bit of auto-soc, it is almost impossible for me to have a bad party.

I had my first instance of a looping wedding party :-/  I used the lot debugger to nuke the second one, but then about 5 Sim days later when someone had a birthday, I could not have a birthday party.  I could "throw party" by phone, and got the message to break out the refreshments etc., but when the people arrived I got no party controller.  It was just a gathering.  I tried "throwing party" again and invited another person, but when he arrived I sitll didn't get a party controller.

Any insights?

I think you have to exit the lot and go back in for the party controller to reset.

phyllis_p:
Thank you, jsalemi.  I'm assuming you meant save and exit, right?  I had exited without saving, but that didn't affect anything. I'll try that in a duplicate of the hood and see how it goes.

I find that now I seem to have lost the ability to have parties at any house, or at least at the 3 out of 5 houses in the neighborhood that I tried.  It's bizarre.  I had parties at these houses with no problems before the one abortive wedding party.  I tried with and without downloads -- no difference.  The only thing that has changed is that I added the BV vacation hoods before the problem started.  (None of my Sims had enough money to vacation at first -- new neighborhood -- so I waited until they had money to add the vacation hoods).

I did find a way around it.  If I click the Party-Extend option on the newest version of the lot debugger, it will start the party, with the timer at 5:29.  I'll experiment with the save and exit method when I have a chance and report back.

Pzorch the Scenario controller, too, under the "AWOL Headmaster" option. It's probably also farkled.
