What happened to "Write Term Paper"?

(1/3) > >>

Avalikia:
I'm playing the "Friends" household that came with Uni, and Mitch and Max keep mysteriously losing their ability to write their Term Papers.  Max couldn't write his at all last semester, but he did this semester.  Mitch wrote most of his term paper this semester (got it to about 90%) then went to bed, and now the option to finish it isn't there - just "Change Major".  There weren't any errors, I don't have any hacks that alter Term Papers (or the computer, for that matter), and I'm at a complete loss.  Nothing of note happened between when he was writing his term paper and now, except perhaps it changed to Fall.  Any ideas of what I can try?

seelindarun:
Mitch's issue is a known problem that was reported in this thread:

I don't know about Max, unless you had influenced him to write a term paper for someone else while playing a different household.  That was my personal favourite glitch, and contribution, to the borken term paper thread.

Avalikia:
Ah.  That explains both then.  Max did just get into a greek house, and I don't remember specifically but I do often have pledges do Term Papers.  I assume both issues are stll unresolved?  I have patched BV, so I can say that it's definately still a problem.

So, I guess I'll try reloading the lot, be more careful about Fall from now on, and I'll stop influencing playables to write term papers - but that's a very low blow.  Someone Awesome should do something about this (or at least someone semi-awesome).

   Just to throw a different wrench into the gear, but i've never had the 'Influence term paper' glitch UNTIL installing Seasons.  I've never played the Vanilla Base game tho, started with University/FFS/Base at the same time.  Added NL (still no glitch).  Adding Seasons and the glitch showed it's ugly head (Patched).  No Pets/BV EP.

If you are using Monique's computer, that can cause it too.
